ARbOR DAY IS
DESIGNATED BY
COMMERCE CLUB

At the regular meeting of the
Nenana Commercial club, held at
the club chambers last night, the
matter of fixing the date of Arbor
day came up for discussion. The
matter was threshed out in full. and,
on motion duly made and carried,
the date was fixed for Saturday,
May 18th.
The day has been set apart for
the purpose of planting ornamental
shade trees around town, especially
in the residence sections. The birch
is suggested as the most suitable
tree for this purpose, and no diff
Guilty will be experienced in getting
young saplings Of this variety of
tree from the nearby woods.
Arbor day will be observed annu-
ally, the exact date being changed
TO suit weather conditions.
1t is hoped that all Nenanaites
will see to it that trees are planted
on .Arbor day, or, if more con-
venient, on the days following. so
that the town will in time be beau
titled by the shade trees, and the
value Of property enhanced thereby.

MUSkRAT HUNTER is
WOUNDED SLIGHT

At about 10 O'Clock last night.
while out hunting muskrats in a
slough about two miles above town,
Albert Magee, an Indian, was shot
accidentally by his companion.
Magee would appear to have
been in the way when the other
man was about to take a shot at a
muskrat, and is reported to have
called out to him not to fire. The
warning apparently was received
too late to prevent the shot.
One of the pellets entered AL
bert's cheek and two others pene-
trated his arm to a slight depth.
The man who fired the shot is said
to have been about so feet from
Albert at the time.

ALASKA CHAMBER
Of COMMERCE TO
Be ORGANIZED

At the regular meeting of the
Nenana Commercial club, held last
night, the question of the formation
of a central commercial body, to be
known as the Alaska Chamber of
Commerce, for the purpose of rep
resenting the interests Of all tne
commercial bodies of Alaska, was
again brought up and discussed ii
some length.
For the purpose of eliciting the
views and inviting suggestions from
other commercial bodies, the secre7
tary Of the local Commercial club
sent the following letter to all the
other commercial bodies in Alaska:
.'Nenana, April IS, 1919.
"The Commercial Club.
Dear Sirs: In an endeavor to
secure prompt results for the terri
tory and its interests, the sugges-
ton is made that the commercial
organizations of Alaska arrange for
the formation of an Alaskan Cham
Der of Commerce to represent the
interests of all.
LAS a tentative plan the Juneau
chamber might elect certain num-
Der of their organization to act as
permanent committee or head
quarters, with arrangements for the
attendance of local delegates later
as circumstances might or might not
warrant.
An essential to this plan is the
putting into effect of special rates
by the government telegraph service
on kilograms between our local or
CARNATIONS. and between them and
our delegate in Congress and rep
resentatives in Juneau, etc.
BY such means, without great
expense, such a central body could
keep in constant touch with the
whole territory, and take appropri
ate action
I'VE are not married to any def
mite plan. and invite your sugges-
tons along these lines, in an at
tempt to bring the matter into
shape for definite action.
Yours truly,
THE NENANA COMMERCIAL
CLUB,
BY H. B. JOSEPH.
Secretary"
1t is expected that definite action
will be taken after the other COM
mercial bodies have been heard
