HETP OF NENANA
i TO RAISE QUOTA
—
I Tanana Valley Chapter la Expected
to Raise Eight Thousand For
Red Cross.
The Tanana Valley chapter of the
Red Cross society, of which the Xe
; nana organization is a branch, has
j been asked to raise the sum of eight
thousand dollars during the progress
of the big Red Cross drive which
is scheduled to start on May 20 and
continue seven days. Nenana's quota
has been placed at $1,000.
This information was contained in
a telegram received this morning
by Miss Jane Anderson, secretary
of the Xenana branch, from John A.
Clark of Fairbanks. The message
follows: “Government has made call
for additional hundred million for
Red Cross. Special drive to be made
for the purpose of raising funds.
Drive to end May 27. The quota
assigned to this chapter is eight
thousand. Do everything possible to
; raise funds for this extremely worthy
object. Wire on May twenty-eighth
result of drive. Your quota fixed
one thousand. Cannot you exceed
| it?”
Miss Anderson announces that the
drive has already started here and
that it will be prosecuted vigorously
during the brief time allotted for
fund raising. Allen Crane heads the
subscription list, with a contribution
of $50 for a Red Cross life member
ship.
Advices received from Fairbanks
state that the drive has started
there also- Tomorrow will be ob
served as Tag Day, on which oc
casion the ladies of the upper town
will be out in force, armed with
tags which they will attach to the
lapels of men’s coats at $1 per at
| tach. That plan has been adopted
| instead of making a general request
for subscriptions equal to a day’s
1 wages, as is being done in the States.
The Xenana subscription list is
| available for those who desire to
i subscribe to the worthy cause, any
.amount being acceptable, from $1
upwards. Miss Anderson and all
of the other ladies of the Red Cross
will be pleased to place your name
on the roll of honor.

SAVE JHE WASTE
Salvage Committee Eager to Receive
Donations of Junk of All
Kinds.
The salvage committee of Xenana,
consisting of Mrs. M. S. Love anj
Mrs. F. S. Ryus, has issued a new
appeal to the residents of the town
to save the waste. This committee
has undertaken the task of gather
ing up what might truthfully be
called the junk of Xenana. They
want almost everything of a cast
off character and will see that the
articles donated reach the place of
general assembly in the States, if
left at the postoffice by the donors.
The articles are to be put to many
uses to help up Uncle Sam win the
war, and in the aggregate, will con
tribute much to the success of the
Allied cause. And all that the pub
lic is asked to do is to take the
cast-off articles to the postoffice, in
stead of throwing them in the ash
heap.
What is to be saved? Practically
any metal scrap, especially brass,
copper, zinc, lead, aluminum, silver,
This means broken trinkets, discard
ed jewelry, old revolvers, old tele
phone batteries, tin foil, percolators,
tungsten lamps (which contain a
tiny platinum filament, as well as
steel waste, such as scissors and
razor blades.
This also means rubber, in any
shape or form, but especially inner
tubes of auto tires and rubber pacs.
It also means leather of any de
scription, and gunny sacks, which
are greatly in demand.
Old stocking or sock tops are need
ed in vast quantities this minute.
They are being made into gun-wipes
by the girls’ knitting club Xothing
is better for this purpose, and thou
sands are needed and at once.
There is a decided shortage of
wool. Wool clippings, even the
smallest, or discarded wool garments
of any nature, have a value to the
Red Cross, even though they are of
no value to vou.
FLOOD VACATION
E
Ground Will Be Dry Enough By
Monday to Enable Children to
Reach Building.
The flood vacation, which the
pupils of the Franklin K. Lane school
have been enjoying greatly this
week, wrill come to an >end on Mon
day, announcement having been
made that studies are to be resumed
the first of the week.
The school was closed las* Mon
day at the conclusion of the day’s
work, on account of the high water,
and for several days this week it
was impossible to approach the
building except by boat. The base
ment was flooded, but the water did
not reach the floors, and the dam
age, in consequence, was only nom
inal.
COAL PROSPECTOR
IS TOWN VISITOR
Mr. W. J. Lynn, who has been
a city visitor for the past few days,
will leave for his camp near 35-mile
on the train tomorow morning.
Mr. Lynn is engaged in doing
considerable prospecting near Resi
dency 3 (35-mile) in the hope of
being able to find the continuation
of a vein of coal outcropping in a
cut on the railroad grade, taken
out by him under a grading con
tract with the Alaskan Engineering
commission. This outcropping of
coal was referred to in a report
made to the Commission by Resident
Engineer George B. Richardson and
was published in these columns some
time ago.
Mr. Lynn’s efforts are directed
towards discovering, if possible, the
continuation of the vein on the hill
side away from the right of way,
at a level that would make it pos
sible for successful mining opera
tions to be undertaken economically,
always provided that the coal found
proves to be of good quality and
commercially valuable.
