NORTHERN NOTES

A steelhead trout 21 and 1-2 inches long and cutthroat trout 16 and 1-2 inches were caught near Ketchillan.
 An intensive advertising and pub- licity campaign throughout the Ter ritory in the interests of Carnation milk will be staged this summer.
 Cherry trees are in full bloom in Ketchikan yards. While the season is later than usual, the indications are that hey will bear good crop.
 A cable has just been received from Mrs. Floyd E. Ryus by relatives ip Ketchikan stating that she he'd received a telegram informing her of the sudden death of her mother in New York City.
 New improvements have been made to the herring food and fertilizer plant at Saginaw Bay which is ex- pected to increase the pack this year, according to Capt H. A. Bauer, who arrived in Ketchikan recently.
 Steve Rowe, who spent last winter atUnakwik Bay, returned to Valdez last week, and will leave soon for the States. MT. Rowe has spent many years in the North and believ- es he has done pioneering enough, so aims 10 spend his declining years in a country where the climate is more salubrious. He will probably make his home in Oregon or Callfor- mia.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Christmas Day. There were those in the past who regarded it as pagan festival, others a time for gloom and fasting But whatever its origin. the ancient beliefs connected with it. Christmas Day is now and has been for very many years the great est of all Christian festivals
 And what is there left to say about it :? Of what interest and timeliness are dull facts, either sacred profane. as to it's institution and growth throughout Christen- dom? Away with them vacations of the spirit for less joyous seasons For Christ mas Day is the festival of spiritual joy. and for the expression of the deepest sentiments of peace, goodwill and love. And in keep ing with the occasion, we know of nothing to say moro expressive of that which we feel than the age-old greeting Merry Christmas and Happy New Year" May each and every one of you experience them in the fsfllest measure.
