When You Need
Money
If you are the average man or woman, you
have two sources open when you need
money quickly. One is to borrow it—if you
can; the other is to draw it from your ac
count. Even well to do people take no
chances on borrowing; they have their
checking account.

CHAMBER ASKS
THAT HOLIDAY
BE DECLARED
WHOLE TOWN WILL TAKE DAY
OFF THURSDAY AND HELP
CLEAR BUILDING SITE
At the Chamber of Commerce lunch
eon yesterday noon the members ask
ed that Mayor L. V. Ray declare a
i holiday for the city in order that ev
1 eryone might meet at the site of the
Jesse Lee Home Thursday morning at
9:00 o’clock for the purpose of clear
ing off the building site. It was one
of the terms of the agreement with
the ladies of the Mission that the city
clear the site, and for this purpose
> it was thought best by those interest
ed that a holiday be arranged and a
grand and glorious picnic be enjoyed.
The ladies of the city will furnish the
sandwiches and coffee, and any person
who feels his health will be injured
by the small amount of manual labor
, necessary, may hire a laborer to take
i his place in the ranks. The chamber
and city council ask that everyone de
vote at least a part of this day to the
worthy cause.
President Hinde appointed P. C. Mc
! Mullen, Mayor L. V. Ray and Hugh
Dougherty as members of an advisory
committee to assist in the management
of the Home, this committee to be a
permanent one.
Henry Frost and Hugh Dougherty
were named as a committee to see to
blasting out a few stumps on the site,
and in company with Wm. Erwin,
manager of the local Standard Oil Co.,
called upon Mr. T. W. Hawkins, who
promised them dynamite at cost, and
all the black stumping needed free of
charge, which splendid gift was ac
cepted in the spirit in which it was
given. The committee was authoriz
ed by the chamber to expend not over
$50 for powder, caps and fuse.
Rev, Dunlap* was present at the
meeting and asked that a strip 300 by
500 feet be cleared for the large build
ings to be erected.
Messrs. Elwyn Swetmann, Dr. Rob
erts and Dr. Baughman were appoint
ed as a permanent hospital committee
who will use their efforts to secure a
hospital for the city in order to pre
vent the expenditure of thousands of
dollars in Anchorage institutions. It
was reported that a hospital was plan
ned for Seward by a certain sectarian
organization, and the Home will in
stall a hospital in the near future.
The large attendance at the lunch
eon was most gratifying and indicates
a revival of interest in local affairs.
A crew of men started work on the
road from the railroad spur to the
Jesse Lee Home this morning, and the
force will be increased as fast as the
necessary tools can be provided.

yor of Seattle, and not Ole, and I
will invite the press to my meeting

ing on.”
