Bachelor Quarters
Is Scene of Gaiety
The first of a series of informal par
ties which the boys of the Engineering
Commission plan to give during the
winter was held at the bachelor quarters j
on Tuesday night and a jolly time is re- |
ported by all who attended. The party i
was arranged by the house committee, |
consisting of Messrs. Packer, Raeburn
and Schumau, and the attendance was
restricted to those in the employ of the
Commission, their wives and lady
| friends. There was dancing and a
sumptious luncheon, and throughout the
evening the election returns were an
nounced at frequent intervals by Official
annonncer Rotcli.
Louis Klopsch, editor and manager of

CLUB 1$ ORGANIZED
—
Business Men Get Togeth=
er at Meeting
TOWN WILL RECEIVE BENEFIT
Purpose of Club Is To Promote
Interests of Nenanaites
Memdership Large
With practically every business man
in town present, the Nenana Commer
cial Club was permanently organized
last Sunday at tlieoffice of United States
Commissioner Burns, and the manner in
which the newly elected officcre have
taken hold of the work intrusted to them
gives the assurance that the organiza
tion will be of great help to the town
and to the district which is tributary to
Nenana. Numerous matters of import
ance to the community were discussed
at length at the meeting and they are
now receiving the consideration of the
various committees and officers to the
end that a definite plan of action may be
decided upon when the next meeting is
held.
Fire protection was one of the matters
discussed, but no decision was reached
beyond agreeing that every business
house should provide itself with one or
more fire extinguishers at once for use
on the premises or elsewhere in the
town if needed. These extinguishers
will constitute the chief source of pro
tection until additional equipment can
be secured.
'Townsite Manager Ryus reported that
he would undertake to move the Com
mission bell to the corner of First and
A streets, where it will be installed for
use as a general alarm in case of fire.
Scavenger service rates were also the
subject of considerable discussion but
no action was taken beyond referring
the matter to the executive committee
of the club with instructions to draw up
a schedule for submission at the next
meeting.
The officers chosen to look after the
affairs of the organization are as follows:
President, W, H. Gilclier; Vice-Presi
dent, R. G. Southworth; Secretary
Treasurer, Robert E. Burns. Exec
utive Committee: n, C. Morris, William
Casey. Thomas Riggs, Jr., W. C. Gag
non and Joe Roberts. Townsite Mana
ger Ryus and Dr. M. E. Smith were
elected honorary vice-presidents.
The monthly clues of the club were
fixed at $2, with a membership fee of
£6 for new members. Hvlaws, similar
in many respects to those adopted by
the Fairbanks Commercial Club, will be
submitted for the approval of the club at
the next meeting,

Many Are Searching
Brains for Slogans
The call for slogans, which was issu
ed by the Commercial Club early in the
week, has met with a hearty response,
nearly everyone in town having ex
pressed the intention of submitting sug
gestions to the club. For the benefit of
those desiring information as to the kind
of a slogan sought, members of the club
state that the combination of words
should be short—the shorter the better—
a brief, catchy sentence foreshadowing
the destinies of the town and the advan
tages to be derived by becoming one of
its inhabitants.
Hayden Outfit Back
Survey is Finished
The Havden party, which has been en
gaged in relocating certain lines of the
Weir survey near the coal fields, which
were washed out by the river, returned
to town during the week and reports
that the work has been completed. F.
1), Hayden was in charge of the party.
Pete McDonald, who underwent an
operation at the local hospital several
days ago, has recovered sufficiently to
be on the streets.
Commissioner Burns
Goes to Fairbanks
United States Commissioner Robert K.
Burns was a passenger on the rainier
stage which left for Fairlunks yesterday
morning. It is the intention of the
Commissioner to spend several days in
the upper town on Judicial business, re
turning to Nenana sometime during the
coming week.
While in 1'nirbanks he will ascertain
the number of tire extinguishers avail
able and may bring a number back with
him for local business houses.
Another Metro Feature
To be the Attraction
The management of the Coliseum has
announced another Metro feature for
Sunday night's show. This is a five
part picture entitled "Tlie Soul of a
Woman,” in which Emily Stevens is
presented in the leading role, supported
by a strong Metro company. It is a pow
erful drama, ably presented, and lias
been enthusiastically received wherever
shown.
The management also announces that
on Tuesday night the first episode of the
serial thriller, "Neal of the Navy,” will
be throw 11 on the screen. This picture,
whicn consists of fourteen episodes, was
secured at considerable expense by the
owners of the theatre, but the fact that
it has made a tremendous hit in Outside
cities warrants the belief that it will be
enthusiastically received here. The
picture ran for eight weeks at the Pun
tages.
The Garden Island home of Mr, and
Sirs. J. B. Bickford was partially de
stroyed by fire last week, together with
persotud belongings valued at more than
$300. Mr. Bickford is chief clerk of the
Alaskan Engineering Commission, with
headquarters at Fairbanks.
