INCORPORATION SUPPORTERS
WIN VICTORY AT THE POLLS
By the very decisive margin of
more than six to one, the voters of
Nenana affirmatively settled the
question of incorporation at the
special election held on Tuesday,
and, at the same time, elected the
seven men who will preside over the
affairs of the municipality as coun
cilmen until next April, the regular
; time for electing councilmen in all
incorporated towns in the territory.
1 The number of votes cast in favor
| of incorporation was 171 and th.»
j number against incorporation 28.
There were eleven candidates in
'the race for councilmanic honors,
; including the seven remaining of
j those nominated at the recent public
; meeting, and four others who were
J prevailed upon by friends later to
| permit their names to go upon the
official ballot. The various candi
! dates and the vote received by each
! were as follows:
j Tom Smith . .166
R. G. Southworth . 158
M. J. Cooney . .. 152
William J. Taylor 130
]WT. A. Coghill 109
Frank Teufel . 109
Charles Bergman 107
J. H. Flower . 92
Norvin E. Smith 75
William Rodigkeit . 58
R. C. Morris.. 48
The total number of votes cast
was 199, generally regarded as a
small turnout considering the im~
j portance of the question at issue,
but the result is highly pleasing to
the community as a whole, and
marks the commencement, it is be
■ lieved of a new era in Nenana.
It will be necessary for the dis
trict judge to approvethe election
before the members-elect of the
: council can assume their official dut
ies, so it may a week or two before
the council will be ready for action.
It is probable, however that the
members will meet informally with
| in the next few days to discuss
: plans, as a means of expediting the
I work after they have been regular
^ ly installed. By reason of having
j received the highest vote, Tom
[ Smith, by reason of having re
; ceived the highest vote, will be ac
! corded the honor of presiding over
I the council as mayor.
The judges of election were Allan
| A. Johnson, WTilliam D. Popadopulos
and J. H. Scott.

ILLNESS AMONG PUPILS PULLS
SCHOOL ATTENDANCE DOWN
The second month of scool in
Nenana closed Friday, October 28.
This month has not been nearly as
(rood as last month as far as enroll
ment and attendance are concerned.
Chickenpox, which has been in the
community, has caused much havoc
with the daily attendance, some
children being out of school for
three weeks, and for ten days one
whole grade of 14 children, was ab
sent.
However, in spite of the handi
caps, work has been progressing
nicely and a much higher, and more
satisfactory grade has been attained
by the students as a whole.
There are a few exceptional cases
where the average grade has been
lowered but is usually due to lacs
of attention, stubbornness or laziness
on the part of the pupil.
Punctuality is being emphasized
in the schools. Tardiness tends tow
ard inefficiency. If a student gets a
habit of coming late, that habit
will eventually follow through life.
The first bell of the school is rung
at 20 minutes to nine. There are no
children attending school who, by
leaving home at that time, cannot
reach school by nine o'clock. Co
operation of the parents in this re
spect is desired.
The following is the official data
for October in reports submitted to
the Commissioner of Education, at
Juneau:
1920 1921 |
Number of pupils ..25 33
Number grades taught 7 S J
Number cases tardy 4 41
Number cases absent 10 31 ;
Percent of attendance . 99. 94.55;
Pupils neither absent nor tardy j
for the month are: Hazel Teelund,;
