Undoubtedly one of the main So
cial events of the week. the annual
dance of the Ten Thousand club
neld last night in the clubhouse. was
one of the most successful affairs OF
the kind ever given by the organi-
zation.
AS the one event in the club year,
whose aim is purely social, members
always anticipate the dance and
last night turned out in large Num-
bers to enjoy an evening With their
friends.
Boughs of green eucalyptus made
Simple but effective decorations for
the main auditorium where the
dancing took place. Formally was
dispensed with early in the evening
by means of Paul Jones called
by A. II. Keller, who is famous for
his ability in this line. In addition
two clever match dances served to
introduce those unacquainted and
added TO the enjoyment of the eve
ming.
AT IL o'clock. coffee and sand
wiches were served in the tea room
the table being attractive with a
centerpiece of tall green candles and
bowl of brilliantly colored fruits.
During the evening informal
bridge games were enjoyed by those
preferring cards to dancing, and oc-

STANDARD RULES
OF ETIQUETTE

Question: What is the menu for
a formal dinner?
Answer; Since the war, the huge
dinners formerly enjoyed by So
ciety have gone out of vogue, and
at the most elaborate of private
dinners. the most that would be
served would be the following:
Hors d oeuvre. soup, fish. entree.
roast, salad. dessert, and coffee.
The menu for a less formal din
ner would leave out tfsc entree and
usually the hors d oeuvre or the
soup.
Well balanced dishes should be
chosen; an unusually rich dish to
be balanced by a simple one.
In addition, odd, foreign dishes
should be avoided They are COR
rect for an informal dinnI' where
one knows the guests enjoy them.
Combinations should not be mono
tonouS; too many creamed dishes,
or too many highly season ones
make a poorly balanced menu.

 Stewart possesses an available land area of about 1500 acres, of which some 500 acres is within the platted townsite.
 Owing to it's peculiar location near the easern border of the Coast Range, Hyder is the only town in Alaska that can be linked up with the Canadian railway system, except at an unwar- rnntable expense and the overcom- Ing of tremendous natural obstacles.
 Mining is the principal resource of both the Hyder and Stewart districts. Hyder is the gateway to the Salmon River mining area of both Alaska and British Columbia which contains

Hyder, Alaska and Stewart, Brit ish Columbia, have been approp- riately designated "The Twin Cities Of the North"
 The two towns are situated on tidewater at the head of. Portland Canal, 120 miles north of Prince Rupert, B. C., in Latitude 53 degrees, 54 minutes north. Longitude 130 west, and are less than two miles apart, with the Alaska Canada international boundary line between.
 Hyder, Alaska, is situated at the mouth of Salmon River valley, mile deep embrasure ill the Coast Range mountains some 20 miles in length, of which 13 are in Alaska, the remain der in British Columbia.
 Stewart, R. C.. is located at the entrance to Bear River Valley and is the most northerly ice-free seaport of Canada. The Bear valley is about 25 miles long and forms a natural gate,

way to the great central basin of Canada, from which itsis divided by only one low mountain barrier.
 Portland Canal is a deep inland waterway some 90 miles in length and is an arm of the Pacific Ocean, which it joins at Dixon's Entrance on the British Columbia-Alaska coast.
 Portland Canal terminates abruptly at Stewart, where it forms a mile wide salt water harbor with safe anchorage for ships of the largest type and provides deep-water front age for both Hyder and Stewart.
 Both towns are ports of entry and the sole distributing points for their respective areas and enjoy an i'm portant sea commerce. with five steamship lines maintaining regular sailings to Seattle, Vancouver and Ketchikan, Alaska.
 Hyder and Stewart both possess
 excellent townsites, located on flf

 Records of the Mining Recorders of fices in Hyder and Stewart show the location of considerably more than a thousand existing mining claims in the two districts.
 Incidental to the mining industry is an important numbering and saw mill industry the product of which is absorbed mainly by the mines of the district. The principal sawmill of the district is located at Hyder and has an annual output considerably in ex- cess of 100000 board feet of lum- ber
 Owing to the presence throughout the district of vast quantities of timber and numerous potential water powers, conditions appear extremely favorable for the ultimate develop ment of large paper pulp industry

Future of fiyder and
 Stewart Is Bright

It has been said that all cities that have achieved wealth and greatness have done so mainly on account of their natural, advantages.
 Considered from this standpoint, the future of Hyder, Alaska, and Stewart, B. C., is bright indeed.
 Few cities have been located amidst greater natural advantages than these Irwin Cities of the North"
 Not only are they surrounded on every side by mineral wealth, but are situated at the only logical Pa cific gateway to Northern British Columbia, and Central Canada. with their vast reaches of mineral, tim Der and agricultural lands. Combined with this fortunate geographical To- cation, they also possess lanG- locked harbor open to ship commerce throughout every portion of the year and natural railroad route of almost ideal grade extending eastward to the valley of the Peace.
