Mrs. Fred Maurath, Mrs. J. H. Flow-!
er, Mr. and Mrs. James Cody, Mrs.1

i Grave Presbyterian church, has been
: notified by the Home mission that

. leave Nenana within a few weeks.
Otherwise he will not leave until
after the opening of navigation. Dr.
| Diven came to Nenana under a
j three-year contract, which expired
1 last fall, and he would have been
'transferred at that time but for the
fact that he expressed a wish to
remain until the affairs of the “flu”
committee, of which he is chairman,
I could be wound up satisfactorily.
