 U. s. in Great War

Ketchikan Is never at a loss for some occasion to celebrate and can usually find some good excuse to re. joice over, but perhaps the most aus picious occasion that has presented itself for sometime will be the First Anniversary of the entrance of Ameri' ca in the great War, which occurs on Saturday April 6.
 The Bremen, who recently announc' ed that they would give their annual ball on Easter Monday, have changed their plans and instead are planning to have the biggest and best patriotic dance ever given in the city on the First Anniversary. The entire pro- ceeds of the Ball will be turned over to the local chapter of the Red Cross for use in purchasing supplies for the making up of hospital garments and articles for the brave soldiers and sailors. and the very much needed sur gical supplies.
 The executive committee for the Ball was chosen at the last meeting with Harry Smith as chairman, and is composed of Messrs. L. Erickson, 8. Adams. Wm. K. Spalding. and Geo. Morrison. Other committees will be chosen later to carry out the working arrangements. ~
