FAIRBANKS
HIE TO DEAD;
VIST CEMETERY
Memorial day was fittingly ob
served in Nenana yesterday after
noon when hundreds of residents of
the town and nearby camps attend
ed the public service at the Colise
um. and later made the trip to the
cemetery by special train to strew
flowers on the graves of departed
friends and relatives.
The program opened with a violin
solo by Prof. Ernst Berggren, fol
lowed by a quartet consisting of
Misses Shaffer, Schuman, Edmunds,
and Mrs. Leon Kellum, who sang
“Rock of Ages.”
Rev. Diven then announced his
text, and after the quartet had ren
dered “Lead, Kindly Light,” with
piano and violin accompaniment,
played by Mrs. W. A. Coghill and
Prof. Berggren, the large audience
wras given the opportunity to listen
tc a splendid talk on “Death and Its
Causes and the Lessons It Teaches.”
Following the address, the audi
ence was led by the quartet in sing
ing “America,” and the program
closed with a brief prayer, after
which nearly all of those present
.boarded the train for the cemetery,
Iwhere the service was concluded,
i The services yesterday were held
:hiefly in honor of the memory of
hose who passed during the influ
;nza epidemic.

WORK ON HAPPY GRADE
A. B. Funk and West Keefe have

section of the proposed new line
between Happy and Fairbanks, and

* tablish their camp, which will be lo
cated near the Government experi
ment station. They may get away
tomorrow for the scene of their
work, it being their intention to get

tractors comprises about two miles

work very largely can be handled

FAIRBANKS REPORTS
WORKERSIN DEMAND
There is an acute shortage of
workers throughout the Northern
division of the Alaskan Engineering
commission. Men are needed all
along the line to the south of Xe
nana, old camps are running short
handed on the Fairbanks line, and
new camps are difficult of establish
ment.
A gang of ten men was sent out
to Big Eldorado from Fairbanks this
morning, secured with the greatest
difficulty and at the expense of
other camps in need of larger crews.
Many more men are needed all
along the Tanana Valley, and with
the commencement of grading oper
ations on the Abbott survey be
tween Fairbanks and Happy there
will be additional demand for work
ers.

^eherin is selling everything, al
Imost, from candy to clothing.

necessary to lay the Pollywog up
for repairs upon arrival here. And
(while the work is in progress the
owners of the craft will make the
trip to Fairbanks by train, it being
their intention later to cruise the

Birth Announcement Cards at the
News Office.
A quiet home wedding, which was
intended as a surprise to the many
friends of the contracting parties,
took place at the Presbyterian
manse on Saturday evening;, when
Miss Lucile Diven, daughter of Rev.
| and Mrs. Robert Joseph Diven, and
i Frank Murphy, foreman, electric
service department, Alaskan En
gineering commission, were united
in the holy bonds of wedlock. The
ceremony was performed by the
bride’s father, in the presence of
Miss Jessie Johnston, Mrs. Diven,
I
and Mr. Joe LaFerrie.
Miss Johnston had arranged a
; young ladies’ party for Satruday
j evening, presumably for the pur
'pose of engaging the attention of
the intimates of the bride-to-be, and
; while the guests were gathering at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. William
Taylor, Miss Johnston slipped qui
etly over to the manse, and re
turned shortly afterward with the
; bride, none of the young ladies at
. that time being aware of what had
i taken place.
I But secrets are hard to keep in i
, Nenana and the evening was still
I young when the news began circu
lating and congratulations began
pouring in upon the young couple,
[both of whom have a wide circle of
friends in Nenana.
The newlyweds have taken the
iCoutts residence, on B street.
