CLEANUP AT CEMETERY
A practical observance of Memor
ial Day has been arranged by the
civic and fraternal organizations of
Xenana, headed by the Board of
Town Trustees and Pioneers, and a
cordial invitation is extended to
the public to co-operate in the move
ment, the purpose of which is to
put the Xenana cemetery in pre
sentable appearance and eliminate
the fire risk, which is a menace to
the headboards and enclosures mark
ing the various graves.
The members of the local igloo
of Pioneers already have done a
lot of work at the cemetery in past
seasons, but much remains to be
done, and it is planned to Interest
the public in the cleanup movement
with a view to arranging a trip to
the cemetery on Sunday, with tools
and punches. If a sufficient number
will assist, the work can be done in
a day.
Arrangements have been made
with Superintendent T. K. Blake>,
of the Alaskan Engineering com
mission, for the use of hand cars
for the trip to the cemetery, and
for all the tools that will be needed
to do the work.
The clearing party will gather at
the Commission dock at eight o’clock
Sunday morning, and the committee
in charge is prepared to provide all
the transportation that will be re
quired, so none need hold back
on that account. Each volunteer is
expected to take a lunch with him,
as it is the intention to spend the
entire day at the work, or as much
of the day as may be required to
dispose of' the brush and stumps
which now mar the beauty of the,
cemetery tract.
The practical manner in which ‘
it is planned to observe the day
should appeal to Nenanaites and is
expected that there will be generous•
response to the invitation to help.!
Those citizens who cannot get away j
will have the privilege of delegating j
a good worker to represent them,!
but it is hoped that every one will
strain a point to be on hand..
Improvements of a permanent
character are in progress at the
local Catholic church and, when
completed, the edifice will be one<
of the most completely furnished I
and attractive in the Interior. The \
work is being done by Theo. Thomp-1
son, Nenana’s sourdough builder
and contractor.
