OMITTED LAST WEEK.

We regret very greatly the omission
of the following item from the News
Record of last week. Mrs. Thompson
sent the copy in early in the week,
and in some unexplainable manner,
after 1t had been set up and proof
read 1t was accidentally set aside with
type to be held over for this weeks
paper. Mrs. Thompson is hereby alb
solved from all charges of being any,
thing but up-to-the minute in send
ing her report in, and we take all of
the blame for the delay.
The regular meeting of the Portage
Orthopedic Auxiliary was held at the
home of Mrs. A. D. Kingsbury on Fri
day, March Goth.
Seventeen members including the
hostess, were present.
Also as guest of honor Mrs. Geo.
Davis Fanny Kingsbury) who con-
tributed much to the pleasure of the
gathering.
The return of Mrs. M. L. Hanson
after many weeks of absence, because
of her recent very serious illness, was
matter or rejoicing to everyone.
Following the 1 o'clock luncheon, the
president, Mrs. G. F. vanolinda cali
ed to order for short business ses-
sion. The reading of the oath annual
report of the Orthopedic hospital was
heard with much interest. Although
the report was too lengthy to be fully
grasped at single reading 1t is never
theless trimming with interest to all
Orthopedi cworkers
A very interesting letter from one of

CAMULos CLUB.

Through wintry weather as If
ordered for the occasion, Camulos
Club members, with families and
guests, met at the Club house last
Friday evening for the annual mid
winter frolic Dinner was served at
seven to nearly one hundred happy
folks, seated at tables beautiful with
spring time colors, and cheerful with
the glow from yellow candles. Follow
ing the inner, Mrs, Jeffers gave two
delightful readings from the pen of
James Whitcomb Riley. These read
ings were to have been followed by a
theatrical skit under the direction of
DR.. McMurray, but time was called
for last minute rehearsal, SO Miss
Virginia LETTERS in happy manner
read two essays, so to speak, on Boys"
and Husbands" which caused many
smiles and much applause. Rehearsal
over, THE Coquette" was cleverly
pantomimed by Mr.. and Mrs. Arnof
Tronas, DR.. and Mrs. McNfurray, Mr..
Dunlap, and Mr.. Kimmel our genial
merchant. In regard to this, we might
say that the DR.. turned into a
grotesque looking hat rack, Mr.. Dun
lap into an inviting looking tea table
and Garner became SO comfortable
looking as an arm chair that Arnof
in casually seating himself caused
much distress and confusion. The re-
mainder of the evening was made
merry with games and stunts, some
of which caused tears, but not sor-
rowful ones. It was truly a frolic and
much credit is due the social COM
mittee of the club, and Dr. and Mrs.
McMurray who aided greatly in max
ing the affair a success
Contributed.

voyage was had by students and

ming on the good ship Vashonian. The

and jovial sailors perched in crows
nests were features of the decorations.
Tiny sailor caps with chin straps were
given out to the passengers early in
the evening, thus giving everyone
nautical aspect The Ancient Mariner
himself could have witnessed nothing
more supernatural than the shower of
bright balloons which so suddenly fell
upon the unsuspecting passengers dur
ing one of the dances. Before the
passengers were landed once more at
the home port, delicious refreshments
were sent from the galley to the main
deck.

 IA. Glory to God in the high est, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
 15. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Beth lehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known un- to us.

TEN YEARS OR 50 AGO
From the Hyder Alaska Miner
 December 21, 1921


 have built a good camp on the B. c. Group on Georgia River and MT. Shough has started two prospect tunnels. They figure that by spring they can have out a shipment of ore, samples of which assay from $70 to $256 per ton. The prop erty is only one-fourth mile from the beach, so there is no transportation problem.
 Monday morning power was turned for the first time onto the big aerial tramway that connects Premier mine with tidewater. Very slowly the 23 miles of travelling cable was moved slowly at first, for al- though the acme of engineer ing skill could proclaim that the line had been correctly in- stalled, the human factor had 70 be considered, and discre- ton dictated caution in trying put the costly equipment. How ever, no fault has been found Il construction or material and no changes have been neces- ,ary. It was a two days job stringing the 250 buckets onto he cable. Each bucket has a capacity of 800 pounds, or a .otal capacity for all buckets )f 100 tons. So when the first bucket out from the upper bunkers returns, the guaran- teed capacity of the tram, 100 :ons, will have been delivered at the lower bunkers. Those who like figures can figure put from the start how fast the buckets will travel during ,heir 23 mile trip.
 Word was received from c. I. Gardiner, Forest Supervisor for Alaska, that the townsites of Tenakee, Craig and Hyder would be eliminated from the Tongass national forest there by permitting the residents to apply for patent to their hold ings under the general town cite laws. At the present time the lots are occupied under a system of leases providing for the payment of nominal an- nual rental. To provide addit- ional homebuilding space at Hyder, the Forest Service sub- divided an area adjacent to the Lindeborg homestead into POS lots.
 Voting for the Queen of the Pioneer Carnival has com menced. The returns up to 10 o'clock last night were as fol- lows:
 Elizabeth Baynton 575 Elizabeth Pitt 519 Donna Balch 425 Ila Young 255
 However, the Stewart and Premier mine returns were not received in time for publica- ton and these are apt to make an interesting change in the race at any moment and the finish of the contest will hold thrills of excitement. A gold nugget chain to be presented to the queen will be secured in Ketchikan by Felix Seppi.
 Since sleigh and tractor trans portation to the Premier mine was resumed after the heavy snow fall, concentrates have been coming down steadily and a large shipment is on the wharf awaiting the arrival of a steamer. Last Monday alone 100 tons were delivered at the wharf.
