DOUGLAS FIRST
 TO REPORT
Results of Successful Efforts to Raise the Required Sum for Red
 Cross Drive

Tho Country Fair. which was pulled on at the Natatorlum last Saturday evening. was a great sue cess, reflectlng much credit on those who had the affair in charge. The hall was decorated with flags and bunting. and the Red Cross posters, which are very interesting. were ev- erywhcrc in evidence. The country store had everything in it for sale. from button-hook 10 a percolator. but. unlike the country store, the goods were rafled off instead Of be- ing sold. individuals carrying on valuable articles for small sum. Ono Juneau man carried away a handsome glacier picture which had been donated, for the small sum Of twenty-five cents and Douglas young lady. ham. The children were out in force and helped make a noise.
 Miss Harriet sey came out dur ing the evening, dressed to repre- sent the ghost Of Edith Cayell, tho British nurse. who. in the beginning of the war. was court martialed and shot by the Germans, and made a plea to the people to avenge her death. It was very impressive.
 The following sums were taken in at the various booths Candy booth, .S41; ice cream and lemonade, .$33.4O; fortune telling, 2O.3O; cake and coffee, SGS.S5; dancing SGT.
 Mrs. Olaf Swanson won the beau uful glacier picture which was raf- fled for the second time, the winner not appearing to claim it the first time.
 The total receipts of the evening amounted to $500. Much praise is due to NJ. J. o'Connor. P. R. Bradley and NJ. s. Hudson for the success Of the entertainment. They are still collecting for the drive, and though Douglas has already raised the amount required of her. they will have several more dollars to turn in by Saturday night
 Besides the large crowd of local people who attended the fair. there were many visitors from other chan mel points.
