SEWARD ARCTIC BROTHERHOOD
 MAKES BIG DRIVE

Seward is making g big drive for new members for the Arctic Brother hood. Captain McDonald says:
 "HaYe made our first capture. Ground is slippery, but forces gain ing q substantial footing and every part of the line pushing forward shwly but surely. The enemy is ours--you betcha-but great re- sistance is already being shown and every shot spent must bit e bulls eye."
 Captain Badger says:
 At daybreak, we made our fist charge. Cut the wire entanglements of our opponents; captured several of the outer guards, opened full blast with all our big guns. Battle is still ragaing and success seems asured. No chance for peace talk victory alone heal the wounds"
 The purpose for this membership drive is to clear up the little in- dcbteGness, and then erect a mod erE clubhouse on the corner next to the present A. B. building. This new club house will be built for so- cia! and business purposes.
 The team losing the contest must give a banquet to the victors and that is another reason why scratch es are cen all over the streets, A. B members digging their toes into tEe snow and ice to grab the new members.

CHRISTMAS PROGRAM Is
 POSTPONED

By uuanimous agreement of all those concerned it was deemed ad- vi0ahle to postpone the Christmas entertainment to be held in the Presbyterian church until next Fri day.
 Because of the cold weather 1t is tCo much to ask the small chill dren to come to the church to prac- tice their songs and pieces or to even come for q Christmas tree. It is hoped that by waiting few days the weather will moderate, and that an entertainment may then bO held which will be more pleas- ant to all, and to which all can come
 Christmas this year in the Pres byterian church will be open to everyone, and every child who at tends will receive a gift. So re- member the date, and be ready to como Friday night.

MILLIONS FOR AUTO
 ROADS IN HAWAII

Honolulu, T. H., Dec 22. - The reproach of bad roads from which the Hawaiian Islands have long sut- fered will soon be a thing of the past for wide and comprehensive program of good road construction has already been commenced, and autolsts will shortly be able to bring thei' machines over from the main land and make most enjoyable tours of the scenic wonders of the Ha- waiian group. A wide belt road from Honolulu round the entire is land of Oahu is already under way, and the construction of a concrete road from Hilo, on the island of Hawaii, to the edge of the great active volcano, Kilauea, is being ra- Uidly proceeded with, together with permanent improvements to the belt road circling the Big Island. Ponds floated for this purpose were rapidly oversubscribed locally, and it is anticipated that 8 great DOT ton of the work will have been completed by the fall of next year. Ill addition to this the government has just announced that two hun dred and fifty miles of military roads will be built immediately on the island of Oahu.
