WORK WILL START SOON
ON THOMAS BAY PROJECT
There is every indication that
actual work will start on the big
paper plant at Thomas Bay as early
this spring as weather conditions
will allow, says the Petersburg Re
port. Two crews are now engaged
! in cruising timber in the Rocky
Pass section and the Forestry offi
cials at Ketchikan are rushing work
on one of their boats so that another
crew can be sent out at once.
Those who are backing the plant
have applied for final permit to
develop the water power there and
this will be granted as soon as the
Forest Service has set aside thirty
years supply of timber.
According to word received the
Forest Service and the Federal
Power Commission have been given
j substantial evidence that the back
| ers are ready to start as soon as the
! timber supply is assured. It is also
understood that the plant is being
backed by San Francisco capitalists
and newspaper publishers and that
1 approximately 800 men will be
working there before the summer
| is over.

! berian dog team recently advertised
I can purchase any number of the
eleven. See Tom Jones.
MASONS BUSY PREPARING
FOR BIG BALL THURSDAY
The various committees in charge
of the arrangements for the annual
ball to be given on Thursday night
by the Nenana Masonic Club in
honor of Washington's Birthday,
are busily engaged this week in
! working out the final details of
the big affair," and there is reason
to believe the dance will be one of
the most brilliant and enjoyable
ever held in Nenana. Many invita
tions have been issued and it is
believed there will be an unusually
large number of dancers in atten
I dance.
The committee in charge has re
quested The News to announce that
all Masons, both residents and vi
sitors are invited to attend the
] dance. They do not need regular
invitations their cards being suffi
* cient in the way of credentials.
Others who have received invita
; tions are reminded to bring tnem
| with them to the dance, as it will
be necessary to show them at the
;
; door to gain admission.
The orchestra which will provide
1 the music has been rehearsing the
. numerous dance hits which will be
played, and a splendid program is
j assured. Dancing will start at 9:30
and the grand march is sheduled
for 10:15
The dance will be informal as
far as the men are concerned, but
it is presumed the ladies will avail
themselves of the opportunity to
show off their new gowns. The in
vitations announce that the dance
will be informal but the committee
is not assuming to dictate to the
ladies in the matter of their attire.
