SLAVS 10 MEET
SATURDAY EVE
10 SIM CLUB
Such has been the encourage
ment met with by those fostering
the movement to bring the Slav
residents of the Nenana district to
gether in a fraternal and edu
cational organization, that the suc
cess of the (dan seems already
assured. A petition circulated among
the businessmen of the town, seek
i ing moral support to the movement,
has been very largely signed, and
practically every Slav approached
has signified his intention of be
coming a member of the organiza
tion.
John Ketorooky, of the Central
Cafe, who is at the head of the
movement, expects to make a trip
along the line tomorrow, for the
purpose of informing prospective
members of the plan of the organ
ization, and a meeting is to be held
in town on Saturday night for the
purpose of making a start. Both
Engineer-in-Charge Browne And
Robert Joseph Diven have been in
vited to be present at this meeting
and address the membership on the
possibilities of such an organization
as it is proposed to establish. The
selection of the meeting place has
not yet been decided upon, but ar
rangements will be made in ample
time to inform prospective members
(before the time arrives
j As already stated in these col
umns. the purpose of the organiza
tion will be to provide members
; with the opportunity to learn the
English language and acquire know
ledge of the ideals and duties of
Ami rican citzenship, as set forth ;n
the Declaration of Independence
and the Constitution of the United
i'.tates. The organization also will
have social features, and club rooms
for the entertainment of members,
and a special relief fund will be
maini . m l for the benefit of mem
bers in distress.
The organization will make Ne
nana its headquarters and become
a permanent feature of the com
munity, with a gathering (dace com
bining such attractive features that
members will be reluctant to leave
the district.
According to advices received by
Mrs. Dunham, of Fairbanks, her
husband, Frank Dunham of the Red
Cross Drug store, will leave Seattle
on Monday for Fairbanks.
Frank Dunham, who is part own
er of the Red Cross Drug store,

by voluntary enlistment and paid his
own way out to the States for this
purpose. He has been attached to
a hospital corps at Camp Lewis and
has only recently been discharged
from the army.

FIRST CASE OF
The first case of naturalization
under the special act of May, 1918,
came before Judge Bunnell in the
district court yesterday.
The act referred to provides that
an enlisted man in the United States
army may become naturalized with
out having to take out his first
papers or go through any other of
the preliminaries necessary in cases
of naturalization; his servce in the
army being considered a sufficient
proof of good faith.
The applicant under the special
act, Bertram McDonald, is a soldier
: tationed with the Signal Corps de
tachment at Salcha. He is a native
of Quebec, Canada, and was made
a citizen of the United States. His
witnesses were J. E. Peagues and
'll. B. Stenbuck, also of the Signal
Corps.
i
;
The Board of Public Works and
Charities, which is composed of
delegates from the various institu
tions in town, held a meeting: re
cently, at which a decision was
reached to change the name of the
i board. It will, in future be known
as the Board of Associated Chari
i ties.
! The board is composed of the fol
I lowing representatives: J. A. Slip
ipern, representing the Pioneers;
Ralph Waechter, representing the
jNenana club; W. H. Gilcher, rep
resenting the Commercial club;
Alex Fowler, representing the Moose
lodge; Geo. Woods, representing the
Labor Union; and A. B. Funk, rep
j resenting the Grace Presbyterian
j church.
I At the meeting held, all the mem
bers with the exception of Mr.
Funk, were present and plans were
made for future work along more
systematic lines than heretofore
The board also decided to take
charge of the ice pool and the lists
and tickets will be out in due course.
The winner of the pool is to get
25 per cent of the total collections;
the balance going to the Board of
Associated Charities, to be used for
charitable purposes.
The board also decided that in
order to discourage as much as
possible, the indiscriminate sub
scription lists and raffles sprung on
the people of Nenana from time to
time, will in future, pass on all
such lists, and withhold their ap
proval from those deemed unworthy
of public support.

DANCING SCHOOL
DATE IS CHANGED
Quite a number of dancers gath
ered last night at the Union Hall
at one of those enjoyable dance
meets given by Mrs. Belle Campbell,
and everybody had a rollicking time
as usual.
These dances are usually held on
Tuesday and Friday nights, but in
view of the fact that the Pioneer
dance and entertainment will be held
on Saturday next, it was deemed
advisable to advance the date of
the dancing classes from Friday to
Thursday night, and announcement
of the change was made by Mrs.
Campbell shortly before the dance
came to a close last night. Next
week the classes will be held as
before, on Tuesdays and Fridays.
The dancing classes held by Mrs.
Campbell at the Union Hall are gain
ing in popularity with every meet
ing. Ladies are always admitted free,
a charge of $1 is made for only
those who desire to learn to dance;
the same price being charged gentle
men who may wish to come and
dance.
All things come to him who waits,
including poor vision—unless he
cares for his eyes in time. We fit
you with goggles—light, medium,
and dark amber, 5Jc to $1.25; Wm.
Taylor, joweler.
