Branch of Woman’s Liberty Loan
Committee Formed to Assist
In Work.
A branch of the Woman’s Liberty •
Loan committee has been formed in jj
Nenana for the purpose of taking }
part in the Third Liberty Loan j
drive, that started on Saturday. Mrs. j
Carl Schmidt has been appointed 4
chairman of the Nenana branch, '
with instructions to name her own
assistants, and she has chosen Mrs.
M. S. Love, Mrs. Norman Campbell
and Mrs. F. S. Ryus.
It is the intention of these ladies
to begin immediately to canvass the
town for subscriptions to the loan
and they are hopeful of swelling
Nenana’s total by a very’ substan
tial amount The sales that they
make will be turned over to G. F.
Cramer, who is in charge of the
local campaign, and receipts for the
sums received will be issued by him.
The appointment of Mrs. Schmidt
was contained in a letter received
from Mrs. L. K. Pratt, of Fairbanks,
chairman of the Woman’s Liberty
Loan Committee, of the Fourth
vision. The letter follows:
Fairbanks. Alaska, Mar. 26,’18
"Dear Mrs. Schmidt::
"You are appointed to act as
chairman of your town on the
Woman’s Liberty Loan committee.
Women are active in this movement
everywhere. Secure subscriptions—
appoint helpers and boost for Liberty
bonds
“Cordially yours,
“MRS. L. K. PRATT,
“Chairman Fourth Division
Woman's Liberty Loan Commitee"
COMMISSION TO
RAISEJORKERS
Early last fall, General Store
keeper Howard P. Curtis, while on
a business visit to Fairbanks, pur
chased a number of young pigs,
which were shipped to Nenana and
fattened up in the pen adjoining
the corral, with a view to supplying
the Commission messhouse with fresh
pork, the animals being slaughtered
as needed.
The idea of Hooverising then
seems to have entered into the cal
culations and some of the animals
I were saved. The wisdom of this
policy was amply demonstrated with
i the arrival of several litters of husky
I little pigs, amounting to eighteen all
j told. A few more litters are ex
J pected shortly and a generous sup
i ply of fresh pork is assured the em
! ployes of the A. E. C.- To accommo
| date the rapidly increasing porkers,
\ the building of a large pen is plan
| ned, and, as it appears to be the in
I tention of the Commission to go in
| for the systematic raising of hogs
| for the various messhouses, no dan
, ger of a pork famine is feared.
Mr. Frank Barr and party, who
are enroute to the great Outside,
via the Broad Pass trail and An
chorage, arrived at Camp 9 (20-milei
last night and left again this morn
ing, intending to make the camp at
43-mile this evening.
Included in the Barr party are:
Mrs. Morrison and child, Mr. Thurs
ton and Mr. Irvine A. Alderman.
They have two sleds and some four
teen dogs and expect to make the
trip in record-breaking time.
