New* of Acceptance by Germany
of Peace Term* Is Celebrated
By Many Nenanaites.
The receipt of an Associated Press
despatch late Saturday evening by
the Nenana News, containing the in
formationn that the government of
the United States had been inform
ed that Germany accepted the terms
laid down by President Wilson on
January 8th last, and the issuance
of an extra edition of the Nenana
News, passing the hopeful news
item on to the people of this city,
was received with much enthusiasm
by Nenanaites.
The extra edition was on the
streets just as the people were com
ing out of the Coliseum at the con
clusion of the picture show, and,
although the news was not of a
very definite nature, the rather
hopeful tone of it would appear to
have made quite an impression, and
nothing short of a parade by way
of celebrating it would satisfy the
patriotic crowds.
The word parade was no sooner
j uttered than it took concrete form
and a willing and enthusiastic party
;was rapidly formed. Those of this
little patriotic group or “ringlead
ers” who started the ball arolling
wish it to be known that the action
was spontaneous and none of them
; would plead guilty to having started
; it.
Drums and taps, sundry empty
i gasoline and other cans, rattles,
: horps and various other types of
i noisemakers with plenty of people
; who were both willing and anxious
\ to produce the noise, appeared as if
by magic. A large American flag
was also produced and the very first
peace parade of Interior Alaska
formed up at the Cooney hotel at
about 10 o’clock Saturday night.
I he emblem of right and freedom
was borne by Mesdames J. H. Rus
sell, R. R. Myers, M. J. Cooney, J. R.
Bowen, M. O’Bryan, Maud Bishop
and Miss Queenie Russell, and led
by the bass and snare drums ably
handled by Professors Herman Ros-.
burg and Ernst Berggren, the pro
cession, which numbered about
twenty all told, started out.
Every business house and pool:
hall in the city was visited and at j
each place the ranks of the paraders :
were reinforced and the musical j
strenth of the celebrants consider
ably augmented. After going twice
around the business section of the
town, the procession, which by this
time had reached “serious” propor- i
tions, swung down First and B and i
boldly invaded the Commission Re- i
serve, braving the dangers of the'
deadline and the wrath of the j
armed guard, and disturbing the j
slumbers of the occupants of the1
government cottages.

a hasty consltation of war was held
to determine the course of action
to be pursued and in less .time than
it takes to tell it, the crowd uncon
j ditionally surrendered to the dictum
| that a dance at the \enana Club
' rooms would be a fitting finale to
the peace proceedings, and, accord
ingly. the happy crowd made for
the club rooms,invading the men’s
santum without any compunction.
About thirty couples were soon
joyously whirling around and those
I who didn’t know how to dance were
J seen to be threading the intriciate
! mazes of the latest style of fox trot.
I with some trepidation, but with the
right spirit.
A very enjoyable time was spent
by all those who participated in
j this peace demonstration and, it was
i felt by the majority, that had such
an affair been pulled off in the
i “good old days" when the spirits of
j the party might have been reinforced
; considerably without violating the
, laws, the entire town would have
! been painted a flaming red.
