CHENA LOSES HEADQUARTERS
 OF I. '. R. R
HEADQUARTERS OF LOCAL ROAD TO BE ESTABLISHED AERE-
 ROUNDHOUSE FINISHED.

After having had many years of possession, the town of Cinema is to lose the headquarters of the Tanana Valley Railroad. For General Mana ger Wade H. Joslin has announced that he intends to change headquar- ters, and that after time which will be announced later, all of the train men and employees of the railroad will make their headquarters here.
 The decision to change railroad headquarters was made by Manager Joslin only after due deliberation, although he planned upon the move some time ago It was then that he started the construction of rail road roundhouse here. And the roundhouse is now practically completed and ready for occupancy. There is no roundhouse at Cinema, as it had to be taken down about year ago to keep it from being wash ed away.

The regular train service between Cinema and Fairbanks will be discon tinued through the winter. This is because of lack of business. Instead of the regular service a twice-per week service will be inaugurated. The days on which the run will be made and the time of the arrival and departure of the Cinema trains, will be made later.
 The move of the railroad manage ment is only another evidence that Cinema, the first town established in the Panama Valley, is slowly but surely being wiped off the map. When the Panama Valley Railroad was first built it's headquarters were established at Chena and the first trains on the road ran out of there. Shortly afterward when Fairbanks became town, spur was run up here, with the idea that it would be nothing more than branch of the road.

 Mrs. Sjolseth arrived in Fairbanks on the steamer Reliance from Seat tie, where the young people were boy and girl sweethearts. She is re ported to have been one of the most popular girls that ever came in on the boat, and the passengers were all peeved that they were not able to be present at the wedding.
 The groom is we'll known in Fair banks, as he came to the country in 1907, and has been engaged in the mining game ever since He has been very successful in his mining operations.
 The presents were many and pret- ty, for the couple have many friends who wish them happy journey through life

 ball this winter Slim" Packard is said to have rent ed the Auditorium and will use it for that purpose If the reports are not misleading he will put on games twice each week and more time will be given to practice. It has not been announced whether Slim" will play or not. There will be four teams in the field. and it is reported that there are two good men in town that came in during the summer.
 The management also plans to play games with Nenana, and that ought to add considerably to the interest in the game Nose of the players of last season are in town and will likely be glad of an opportunity to play again. Therefore the manage ment looks forward to successful season.

WHEN ONES There is nothing HOUSE IS more pathetic than SHABBY. the decay of former
 grandeur. Then holes appear in the curtains of the house and dirty marks besmudge the dainty coloring of the goods There are a few houses in this town that already are on the slope downward to shab- biness.
 The paint is kicked off the door and the windows are permitted to keep their quota of dust from the streets There is something hopeless in the attitude of d house that slides downward in this fashion without any attempt to pull up.
 It is easy to feel proud of house that keeps an outward show of re spectability. It is certain that the house of the Little Women" always was neat and clean and painted, al short when it came to food.
 The former house seems to have lost all hope and openly and un- ashamed lets it's beauties tarnish and it's pride be humbled into the dust.

Odd Fellows Celebrate
Z. 9th Anniversary

The Arvada Lodge No. 156 |.
0. .. F. celebrated the 9th an.
niversary of the order last Satur.
day night by having the annual
roll call of members and by in
viting in their wives and their
families to enjoy a social evening
with them.
A delightful program was lis
tened to consisting of a piano
solo by Miss Helen Townsley,
violin solo by Miss Keener ac-
companied by Miss Carne, plan
list, and short talks by the Revs.
Cooper. Dametz and Elliott, also
a short historical sketch by Noble
Grand Horace Reno.
The talks by the ministers
were particularly entertaining
and full of the message BETTING
their calling. Their theme was
not derogatory to man-made in
situations as such, but to impress
upon the mind the futility of
them as soul savers. They were
doing world of good for the
Brotherhood of Man, but they
could not take the place of the
church in preparing mems lives
for the life to come.
The music was of exceptional
high class and the entire pro-
gram was greatly enjoyed.
After the program all adjourn
ed to the dining room where re-
freshments of ice, cream, cake
and coffee were served in great
abundance and greatly enjoyed.

First Sales Day
Was a Success

Arvada's first Sales Day can
be called a success, and consid-
ering the season was equally as
good as could have been expect
ed. The crowd was large and
the buying on most articles was
rather spirited, except on live
stock, and the larger stuff.
Much of the smaller stuff, such
as light wagons, tools, ETC..
brought fairly good prices.
The merchants report rather a
brisk trade from those who came
in to attend the sale.
The Arvada band got out an
hour before the beginning of the
sale and played splendidly in the
grandstand, which livened things
up for those who came in early.
By 2 O'Clock about $50 people
had collected and Col. Bashor
began the auction right on the
dot.
J. F. White was called upon to
make an address of welcome and
did so in a pleasing and humor.
GUS manner by injecting a few
stories which made all in a good
humor. By 2::30 the street was
full of people more farmers
coming in.
There were some complaints
heard against by.bidding as is
usually heard at any sale. OF
course these things are more
likely TO occur at a sale of this
kind than at the sale of some in.
dividual who is selling out tc
leave the country. As a rule the
articles put up at q place OF this
kind are not so much of a neces.
sity of selling. A man has q
horse or COW or a plow, etc.,
and he would sell it if he can &c,
somewhere near what he thinks
it is worth. He does not bring
it in with the idea Of giving i,
away and the sale resolves itseli
into matter of how much
worse one fellow wants an ar,
ticle than the other fellow.
In our opinion, however. ar
owner should have but one bic
and that at the last call, wher
he sees the article going ut tot
much of a sacrifice. AS the by
bidding is seldom done by the
owner himself it is hard for thu

School Election
T Monday, May |

lhere VIII De DuC one canu'-
date for Secretary of the School
board, as j. j. Weber was the
only one to sign up. Mr.. Web
Der realizes that he is undertake
ing a task that requires almost
as much diplomacy as that being
exercised by President Wilson,
but he is determined to act &C
cording to the dictates of con-
science and as nearly to the sat
isfaction of everyone as possible.
He realizes that at best all can
not be pleased but will strive to
make his decisions in a way that
will suit the majority of the
school patrons and with a view
to restoring harmony among the
faculty and the children. 1t is
needless to dwell upon this mat
ter as every parent having child
rem in school is familiar with the
fact that there has been a dis
cord which has permeated the
minds of not only teacher but
pupil and that as a result the
foundation of our educational
system is about to crumble.
These conditions have been al
lowed to run on too long by the
previous board and the burden
now falls upon the incoming
secretary and the new board to
bring order out of chaos. Those
familiar with conditions know
we'll the Herculean task devol-
wing upon them, but those know
ing MIR. Weber believe him to
be a man who can be relied upon
to do the fair and square thing
to all concerned. The election
will take place next Monday,
May l, between the hours of l
and Z O'Clock p. m.
The annual school meeting will
be held Immediately after the
polls have closed and the votes
have been counted.
Do not stay away from the
polls merely because only one
candidate is in the field, as he
will feel better to know that he
has your support and approval.
Inasmuch as there has been
considerable gossip and comment
on certain phases of the situa-
ton and that people seem to
have lined up on one side or the
other in their sympathles and
criticisms we have decided to
publish for the information of all
a resolution which was passed
by the school board at its meet
ing June 2, 1915, and which the
president informs US was order
cd to be made a matter of record
and due notice. given to party
responsible, with a copy of the
resolution attached.
The resolution is as follows:
I'VE, the board of education
in and for School District No. 2,
Jefferson County, believe that
for the good of the school that
all controversy in the district
should cease, and we further
agree that with this school term
it must cease, and that other
fields of work must be looked
after by the parties who seem
responsible for such controversy.
