EAGLES INVITE NENANA ID HELP
 CELEBRATE DAY

The Eagles Thanksgiving ball, which each year marks the com mencement of winter social activi- ties in Fairbanks, will be q par ticularly important affair this year. taking the form of a celebration dance in honor of the completion of the Government railroad between Nenana and Fairbanks It prom ises to be the biggest social event in the history of Fairbanks.
 The Eagles want Nenana to cele- brate with them, and to that end have extended formal invitation to local dancers to journey to the upper town next month to partici- pate in the big time. The invita- tion reached Nenana yesterday, with request that 1t be given publicity through the columns of The Ne mana Daily News. It is addressed to the citizens of Nenana and reads as follows:

ball to be given by the Fraternal Order of Eagles on Thanksgiving eve, in honor of the completion of the Government railroad between Nenana and Fairbanks
 As the dance is in honor of the completion of the road between the two Interior towns. it will be run along the lines of a railroad affair. An elegant burnt moosehide will be given as a door prize Each ticket will cost s1.50, admitting one cou- pie, extra ladies being admitted free. Each ticket will bear num- Der and coupon with a duplicate number, which will be detached at the door; the numbers will be placed in a box and the drawing will take place at midnight
 There will be coffee. cake, and sandwiches served at the counters, railroad style, at cost of 25 cents per plate. All refreshments will be homemade, made by the wives of the Eagles.
 This will be no elaborate dress affair-just "get-together" infor- nal Thanksgiving railroad dance, which we hope will have a tendency to bring the good people of Nenana and Fairbanks more closely together in social and business way. Re member the date. Thanksgiving eve. at the Eagle hall, Fairbanks.

Farther down the hillside the en- gineer was taken through another tunnel. And in this they struck the same veins of ore. This tunnel is expected to show richer ore as 1t is driven farther into the hill. During the winter, the Premier mine plans on making some big shipments of ore to the States. Some new auto sleds are to be i'm ported for an experiment, and if they prove satisfactory they will be used exclusively. The management, however, is fortifying itself by hay ing made arrangements for horses in case the sleds are not practicable. At the present time, the Premier company is building barns and sheds and cabins at the nine-mile post on the road. This is the halfway sta tion in the haul from the mine to tidewater.
 The company also has about 30 men doing road work, preparing the way for the ore shipments
 Mr Cotter found Hyder very ac- tive New buildings are going up and lots are increasing in value. New business houses are appearing and others are contemplated.
 But with all the business activity, Mir Cotter believes that persons ex- pecting to settle there should either be we'll supplied with money to carry them through this winter or wait until spring before settling. The reason for this is that he be- lieves the actual operations will not start on large scale until next spring. and until that time everyone will find it necessary to be con- servative in his expenditures.

ROAD ENGINEER SAYS HYDER HAS
 BRIGHT FUTURE

i That the development work is go- ing ahead and that there is every indication that the mining district ] at the head of Portland canal, now commonly known as the Hyder dis trict, will be one of the greatest mineral producing camps in the world before many months, is the opinion of Fred Cotter, engineer of the Alaska Road commission, who returned to Ketchikan recently from the mines, after several weeks of investigation.
 ! Mir. Cotter went to Hyder, says the Ketchikan Chronicle, to make the preliminary surveys for roads and for the new docks which are expected to be built by the Govern ment, but during his visit he had ample opportunity to study the min ing conditions.
 : Among the few properties that he had time to visit were the Big Missouri, the Forty-Nine, and the Premier.
 On the Big Missouri property q diamond drill is being operated now Three holes are being driven and are at depth of 300 feet. All of them are showing ore carrying good values, according to MT. Cotter.
 The people who have taken op- tions on this ground are preparing to go ahead with extensive develop ment work, and every indication is that it will be a big producer.
 On the Forty-Nine group, MT. Cotter found them doing some pros pecting, which has advanced to such state that there seems no doubt it will be a good mine This prop erty is over the hill from the Pre- mier and there is little doubt in the minds of mining men that the same veins extend through both
 Lursber is now being hauled to the property for the bunkhouse and messhouses and other buildings. The lumber was imported from Seattle and is being carried to the property at great expense, as the transporta- ton conditions are so bad.
 That the Premier mine is the pre- mier mine of America in the making is the opinion of MT. Cotter. It may not be better than other prop critics of the Hyder district, he points out, but 1t has reached a more advanced stage of develop ment. At the present time, the en- gineer reports, sufficient ore has been blocked out to make the Pre- mier mine an enormously rich pro- ducer
 During his visit to the mine, MT. Cotter went through the tunnels. In one of them he walked for a dis tance of 600 feet. This was cross cut in four places for distance of some 200 feet, and throughout, at every point, one could pick rich ore from the walls of the tunnels.
 Some of the ore being taken out" said MT. Cotter; in fact a great deal of it, is so rich that the silver can be scraped off in great layers, solid silver, to say nothing of the gold and other values it

VALUE OF SMILES

A good many people, remarks the editor of the Juneau Empire, take themselves too seriously. We smile , too little and grouch too much. We may think this makes no difference to others, but it does. We start for our place of business feeling that the world is a good place in which to live. We have it in our hearts to greet pleasantly everyone we meet.
 There is no commercial value ln looking unhappy, but the smile has a high commercial value. You can't do business-that is, you can't properly do business-with others when you look and feel like small boy who realizes that he has to miss the worlds series.
 The grouchy man and the grouchy woman hurt business; they hurt themselves; they hurt everybody we coon beein to reflect the somberness of inc crouch, and by the time we reach the office, the shop or the s'oi . we are likely to care as little as these

IGNORED PIONEER
 DIES AT SKAGWAY

Martin Johnson, an cld-time citizen of Skagway, passed away recently at the age of 57 years. He was born ill Norway and had lived in this country for many years. Johnson was in the gold rush on the Chilkoot trail in 1897, and in the great snowslide he started to work that morning, return ing later to learn that all his com rades has been buried beneath the great slide. He was a missionary in India for the Rental mission, and re- mained there year, during which time he married Miss Lucy Ketchum. He moved to Florida arc cund 1911, but did not like the country, and returned to Skagway, where he remained until his death. Johnson's whole life was a splendid testimonial to his Chris tian character.

COM MUNITY SERVICE

During the war a great army of nearly three thousand trained work CTS and sixty thousand volunteers was created for the purpose of organizing the social and recreational activities in some six hundred cities located near the various training camps where American boys were being taught to become soldiers. The great army was known as the War Camp Com munity Service. That it accomplished wonders in relieving the monotony of camp ife-substituting wholesome recreation for questionable amuse ments that might otherwise have pre- vailed-will be cheerfully attested by all the boys who came to know and understand what War Camp Commu- work, to which so many thoughtful people gave their time and energy, the soldiers in training were taught how to fraternize, how to play, how to adjust themselves to the right sort of human relationships. This direct ed recreation admittedly did much to create the admirable morale that was so evident in the last American army.
 A very common criticism of the American people ~js that they do not know how to play enough. Except for the favored few, our hours of rec being that we do not know how to amuse ourselves in wholesome ways in company with our neighbors. This criticism applies with special force to rural communities. If the American people as a whole could be taught to take the right sort of wholesome rec reatiOn and if every community could be socialiZed, a great work would be accomplished. The work of the War Camp Community Service could well be carried to every American commit nifty and with the greatest good re- sulting.
 Plans are now under way for re- taining the work of the War Camp Community Service. Under the name "Community Service" the old work will be retained as far as possible in many cities. The functions of the Playground and Recreation Associa- tion of America will be taken over by the new organization. Many commu- mites are now asking for the services o1 the workers who were trained dur ing the war. Community halls are be- ing erected in many localities which will house local organizations. Com munity movies, community games and local recreation of all sorts will be carried out by those local organiza- tions that may be created. It is great work of which we will hear more and more iE the years to come. This is another fortunate outcome of our war experience.

LATE ALASKA NEWS

Irvine James Sharick, jeweler of Juneau, and Flora Rice Mcdonald were recently united in marriage at Whitehorse. The young couple will live in Juneau.
 Fred Patching, the absconding ex press manager, pleaded guilty to the charge of embezzlement at the Ketchi- kan term of court and was sentenced to pay $500 fine and to serve nine months in the federal jail. The ac- cused absconded with several thou sand dollars belonging to the Ameri- can Express Company and was cap- tured in Montreal.
 Between twenty and thirty miners have staked claims along the north ern slope of Lookout mountain, in the Mayo district The discovery claim was staked by Albert Johnson. Randy McLennan and several other old-time prospectors, have staked also. The slope on which the claims are staked drains into the McQuesten river.
 Captain William Turnbull of Daw- son. who died in Vancouver, B. C., last month, was one of the most popu- lar of the old-timers of the camp. He had the true Northern spirit, and was heavy investor in mining property. For several winters he conducted a roadhouse on the overland trail, and later was master of the Whitehorse. He owned the Lovett gulch hydraulic property and also had heavy holdings in Vancouver.
