DERN GRANTS PARDONS

A Christmas day clemency for two
military prisoners was granted today
by Secretary George H. Dern, following
the practice of the War Department fol
many years to release a limited number
of prisoners on Christmast whose con-
duct is excellent and who have served
material portions of their sentence.
One of the prisoners will be released
Christmas day from the Atlantic
branch of the disciplinary barracks al
Governors Island, N. Y, and the other
from the Pacific branch at A1catras
Calf. For the purpose of protecting
the men from embarrassment the
Army is not divulging their names.

It has been many years since the voice of the rowing wolf pack foated down upon Hope while the blizzard whned and challenged.

CAMERON's CAFE
 EXPECTED ID OPEN
 FOR BUSINESS TODAY

To Scotchmen the mention of the name of Cameron" coniures up skirling pipes and the swish and swing of the Cameron kilt as the bra bricht moonlicht floods hill and dell o'bonnie Scotland.
 To Alaskans it is synonymous with Good Eats"
 And that is what awaits the epicureS at the Cameron Cafe, spick and span under the hand of carpenter and painter, which throws open it's doors today.
 Charlie Cameron requires no in troduction to Seward. It was while conducting a cafe several years ago that he wrote his name indel- libly on the business rolls of the Gateway City.
 Nor does his fame as a caterer halt at the boundaries of Alaska, but scars away to San Francisco, Calif., to Edmonton, Alberta, and other Canadian cities, where "Cameron's" emblazoned the door way of the largest and best cafes catering exclusively to a discrimi- natlng palate. Again We find 1t in Anchorage maintaining the same high standard of excellence one may look for in Stewards revived Cameron's.
 In it's spick and span appearance after undergoing thorough reno vation, Cameron'S is inviting and pleasing to the eye and prepared to handle any press of business which might be imposed A priv ate dining room has been set off in the rear for large parties and banquetS, and curtained parti- tion divides the lunch counter from the tables for the accomoda- tion of families and parties.
