He submitted figures showing that in five years. from 1918 to 1922, in- elusive. his firm went from annual business volume of $132,190 to s3,751,- 1S1.

AXIS CLUB STARTS ITSI DRIVE TO COMPLETE PAYMENT ON BUILDING

Mrs. Angus M. Taylor. president of the Axis club one of the largest women's organizations in the state, has recently mailed out letters to the 1,200 club members requesting each of them to assist In raising funds to complete payment for the $25, 1000 club house before April 1.
 The club house, which Is located at 1919 Eighth avenue, north, was pur- chased by the club during the sum- mer of 1922, and 1t Is the desire of the present administration that the payments on this building be com pleted in order that the next admin istration, which comes in during April. will be placed in a position to erect an auditorium and make many other needed improvements demanded by the rapid growth of the club.
 The building plan as outlined by Mrs. Taylor is that each member of the Axis club will be requested to do two things; first, to buy stock to the amount of $20; to donate $20 to the club; or to raise s20 in any way she sees fit. The second request is that each member bring a new mem Der into the club. It is calculated that if every member now enrolled would follow out the above sugges- tion, the present indebtedness on the clubs s26,000 club house will be paid off.
 The dire need of an auditorium was keenly felt by the Axis club members at their last meeting when nearly 500 women assembled at the meeting held on the balcony dining room of the Tutwiler,. hotel, which proved most unsatisfactory because of the outside noises which made 1t almost impossible to hear the speakers.
 Plans for the erection of this new building will be completed Tuesday, when the board of directors of the club will hold their regular monthly meeting.

CHAMBER DISCUSSES
 KEN|A ROAD PROJECT

At the regular weekly luncheon of the chamber of commerce today the question of extension of the kenai lake road to tap the road at Moose Pass and Quartz creek, was discussed, the members believing that this road would open a virgin field to Seward trade. It was suggested that the pres ent road could be continued over the divide near the Primrose mine and descend to the lake at a point beyond the rock slides, or it could be continu- ed across the lake on piling and par allel the railroad to Moose Pass.
 Conenction in some manner with the completed road at Cooper's Landing, lower Kenai, is desired as an appro- priation has been made to construct a trail from Skilak lake to Kenai
 Resolutions of condolence were extended to Albert F. Davis, brother member, over the recent loss of his Wife, and the secretary was instructed to draw up these resolutions and for ward them to MT. Davis.
 The liability of Seward becoming headquarters for the Alaska cable and telegraph system was discussed. Statistics compiled showed that Sew ard was on the nearest direct line from Sitka, with deep water facilities all the way, and that the town was communication center for all parts of the Territory.
