rough only moderate prices could be
expected and the sale therefore was
satisfactory.

Securing Happiness.

It's every mans right to have pleas
ure. True, many conditions tend TO
rob a man of his rights. But the final
theft rests with the man himself.
Scripture says: "There is that with
holdeth more than IS meet and 1t ten
deth to poverty" The same principle
rules in the quest of happiness. Joy Is
the reward of doing the happy thing
rather than the boarding of a word OF
encouragement. Use your powers for
their intended purpose and see what
the result will be.

The bridge across Glacier creek on the D line which was completed yesterday was used by the work trains this morning for the first time, and the extension of the rails beyond the bridge and towards Liz mite was resumed today.
 The Brown hoist left town last night for the end of steel and will be used in tracklaying operations.
 From the southern end Of the Glacier creek bridge and extending up to Station No. 1S764, the grade has been partly completed under contract This portion of it will be finished on force account, coin cident with the laying of steel.
 Beyond Station No. 1S764 the completed grade will be encountered ard there will be plenty of room for tke steel gang to work alongside of the cars which will be used to carry the rails and ties. When this section of the grade has been reach ed, it is expected that working with the Brown hoist will be discontinued and the flat cars with the new sling attachment will be used.

NENANA|TE GETS
 ARMY PROMOTION
Norman Anderson, Former A. E. C. EmPloye, Is Second Lieutenant
 In Training Camp.

Many Nenanaites will remember Norman Anderson, who was for some time working as timekeeper in the head office of the Alaskan , Engineering commission, and who latterly resigned to accept a posi- tion with the American Yukon Navi- gation company at Fairbanks, which position he relinquished to enlist in the army.
 Shortly after enlisting Norman was stationd at Camp Johnstone, Fla, where he was promoted to the rank of corporal after short term of service.
 The following extract from a letter written by Norman to his uncle, Herman Anderson, of Ne mana, tells of his promotion to the rank of second lieutenant and that he is attached to a company for overseas duty:

 tunity to learn a good deal about
 army paper work and was given charge of small department. with eight men under me, after serving in the office several months. I kept
 a record of all the men in the camp. My duties in France, or where ever they may send me, will be with stevedore or labor companies. If
