IS ENJOYED BY
The closing party of the Nenana
Dancing academy, which took pldee
at Union hall on Saturday night
under the direction of Mrs. Belle
Campbell, proTed to be a most en
joyable affair, with a larger crowd
of dancers on hand than usual and
special music furnished by Prof. •
Ernst Berggren. The dance began
at ten and continued until two, the
floor being well filled with dancers
to the last, all of whom agreed that
the evening bad been one of the
most pleasant of the season.
The dancing academy was started
at the commencement of the dancing
season last year in response to the
request of numerous Nenanaites who
desired the opportunity to learn
to dance. The parties were held at
regular intervals throughout the,
winter and spring, frequently tiding
over otherwise long periods of social
inactivity, and always insuring a
pleasant evening at moderate cost.,
Mrs. Campbell is to be congratu
lated upon the successful and alto-'
gether satisfactory manner in whicn
she has conducted her academy, and
it is certain that the many who
found enjoyment at the academy
dance? in the past will welcome the
commencement of another season of
jolly times, under the same capable
management.

AGREEMENT 13
TUF ON ROADS;
PROTEST MADE
Fairbanks is up in arms as the
result of the receipt of a telegram
from Territorial Secretary C. E.
Davidson, staling that a co-opera
tive agreement has been entered
into between the territorial board
of road commissioners and the
Alaska Road commission, to the ex
tern of $15,000 and covering manv
important road projects throughout
Central Alaska.
The belief prevails in the upper
town that the amount agreed upor,
with the possible addition of $5,000
from other funds, will be the full
amount available for road work in
the Interior this summer if the
agreement is permitted to stand, in
which event important projects, in
cluding the Kantishna survey, may
have to be abandoned.
The telegram is addressed to
Territorial Road Commissioner
Robert E. Sheldon and suggests
that a conference be held with
Capt. John Zug regarding recom
mendations, and invites comments.
The agreement referred to w;.«
made under the provisions of the
new Allen road bill, which was ap
proved during the last session of
the territorial legislature. -
Sheldon has replied, stating that
road projects, entailing expendi
tures aggregating $32,000 already
have been started by the divisional
board and cannot be held up now
without loss to the territory and
hardship to the districts in which
the work is being done.
Other protests against the ar
rangement have been sent to Ju
neau by local organizations, includ
ing the Tanana Valley Agricultural
association.
