SANTA CLAUS AT. ELkS' CHRISTMAS.
 MAKES A BIG HIT.
Hundreds of Youngsters
 From Channel Towns Enjoy Three Events.

Well, did we have a good time?"
 We say we did, hurrah for Santa Claus and the Elks."
 The above question and reply were yelled by several hundred young Americans last night following the Christmas tree given by the Elks and the visit of Santa Claus. When the youngsters of Kid-dom of Gasti- neau Channel said they had a good time' everlasting one of them meant just that.
 The Christmas tree exercises were divided into three parts last night. First, at o'clock kiddies from all directions swarmed into the Palace Theatre where Dad" Spickctt had prepared special show for their enjoyment. Down stairs and gallery was packed by the kids, many ac- father and in several instances by both parents Everything was going fine at the Palace when the lights went out But Dad Spickett was equal to the emergency and he told everybody to sit still and remain in their seats for Santa Claus was coming.
 Dad said he had just received 8 wireless from Santa Claus and at that time he was circling over Doug las Island, was to stop for a minute at Treadwell, then Thane and the next stop would be at the Elks' Hall.
 Santa Claus had engine trouble undoubtedly for the lights remained off for about ten minutes, then on they came and every kid knew that Santa Claus had reached Elks' Hall and was waiting for them.
 The free show being over at the Palace, the rush to the Elks' Hall started, pell nell, swish, swash across the snow river. Several kids in their rush forgot rubbers, receiv- cd wet feet and perhaps a lambast- ing when they reached home, but what was the odds, Santa Claus was the cause of it all.
 In Elks' Hall the long and short COPS kept order Joe Snow, the Ex-
 
 going to make his appearance and the latter did, with a rush and Kid dom became quiet.
 Santa Claus said he could only stay a minute, for he had to go to Skagway but he wanted every little boy and girl to be good until next Christmas. Santa Claus spoke to several of the youngsters and pleased them highly by his recognition. Old Santa remained for about five min utes, then to the jingling of bells disappeared in the direction of SKag- wey.
 Right then the third feature of the evening was sprung, Each boy and girl, both old and young, re- ceived gift bag which contained an orange, candy and nuts. Bottles of pop were also distributed to those present and the big night was over.
 Children were present from every town and hamlet on Gastir eau Chan mel and for the next three, or four,

MUD-PROOF PLAYING
 GROUND UTILIZED IN
 WASHINGTON STADIUM

SEATTLE, Wasn., Dec. 2S.-Mud- proof playing ground has been laid in the new concrete stadium built this year on the University of Wash ington campus here. Underground drains are arranged to carry away all the rain falling on the field.
 Recently when Washington lost to Dartmouth College in the first game played in the stadium there was terrific gale and downpour the night before the game, and the spectators believed that the field could be nothing but miry, marshy and swas1py. Instead, the drains stood their first test and the grounl l was found hard and fast
 In building the drainage system the contractors first gridironed the field with rows of four inch drsin tile laid every twenty five feet On top of that was laid l inches of coarse gravel with a cover ing of shavings and sawdust,, and on top of that was placed the surface coating of eight inches of sandy lOam The loam was raked, scrapc1 and rolled constantly for two week. before the game and, on the playin 2 date, was packed solid.
