THE LOCAL OPTION ELECTION

The suggestion has been made that where elee- lions are held as the in the First and Second Divisions last year and as Judge Jennings has ruled shall be the case again in the First Division this year to ascertain the preference as to whether or not liquor shall be sod that the decision should be made by
 majority of those who vote and that those not voting should not be counted way or another That would be very proper if the law would permit 1t, but under the law in Alaska is is necessary that the majority of all those qualified to express preference in the matter must afrmatlvely give consent the sale of liquor The effect of the order of Judge Jennings calling an election is simply that those who so desire may give expression to their preference in secret

 "The parcel post in the mall sys' tenn has made every season Christ mas rush in Alaska" said Deal to- day.

the most gratifying feature of the sea-
sons activities was to note the splen-
did communicant membership that
partook OF the Lords Supper at the
services, 6 o'clock Xmas morning.
Owing to the heavy snowfall on the
Sabbath the services were not attend
ed as well as if the weather were more
favorable, nevertheless everything
was done with the greatest success.
Offertory for the services being $39.74.
The music as usual was up to the
standard. The solo selections of Mes
danes Irene Fife, Pearl Rose, Lilly
Hughes and Miss Mabel Cole deserve
special mention. Messrs. c. A. Clark
and Wilfred Brickler maintained their
reputation as tenor singers, whilst the
other members of the choir with Miss
Cleo HobsOn at the piano, Mr.. Sprat-
lin at the organ, Master Atwel Rose
at the violin, Mrs. NJ. E. Morrison at
the Trombone, ably performed their
assignments. New Years Sunday the
music will be repeated in part.
The Poor Peoples Mission with Mrs.
NJ. f. Morrison as Superintendent had
their Xmas Tree on Xmas Day in the
afternoon. The hall was tastily deco
rated; the presents many. What is
needed now at the Mission is more
workers to help Mrs. Morrison.
Without question the People e's
Church was in advance OF past years
in the decoration which was rather
unique. Mrs. Vera Finney was ably
assisted by a corps of willing work
ers among the membership.
Everybody is invited to take part in
the services for the week of prayer
which begins from Sunday the End to
Sunday the 9th. Speakers as follows:
Drs Ross, Campbell, Fry, Lang, Bell
