most of them got their allotment of the beautiful.
 To many placer miners the snow means everything for next season. and all will hope for more before spring. The present fall makes landings with ski-mounted planes good in most Alaskan centers, and breaks the long siege many of the planes have had fighting winter conditions without sufficient snow for proper take-offs and landings with skis.
 Snow has finally come to the in- terior of Alaska, said the Cordova Times on Jan. 10, and arrivals from there report that freighting by sleds and caterpillar tractor has started A two-day fall at Mccarthy left Is inches over the countryside. This is still below normal for the season of the year but it at least allows sled trains to get under way.
 Freight for the Bremner mine in particular, was held up as this com pany has several heavy pieces. parts of a 5O-ton mill to sled into their property on the North fork of the Bremner river A new tractor trail was prepared this summer by the Alaska Road Commission and the freight has been at the end of steei since last October awaiting suffi- cient snow to continue the freight ing job.
 Other operators in the interior immediately adjacent to Cordova have also been detained in their winter work by the lack of snow and will take advantage of the re- cent fall.

CHEAPER ELECTRIC RATES

A campaign should be started at once in the interest of lower elec- trio rates in Wrangell.
 The town has to make but two more monthly payments of $500 each and on March 1 1t will own without indebtedness the city light plant and distributing sys- tenn, the total cost of which has been approximately s50,00O.
 The community has borne the rates with but little complaint. so long as the council and light plant management were struggling under debt. but the time is now at hand when a reduction in rates is the right of Wrangell residents.
 It is also time to begin thinking about a larger light plant Electric consumption is now double that of four and a half years ago when the town took over the light plant. and 1t Is constantly increasing. For in- stance, it is said that 35 electric washers have been placed in Wran- gell homes since last September and other electric equipment in propor- tion. Since the city light plant started we have had a number of new industries and electric con- sumers of which may be mentioned Wrangell Institute. the Diamand K. the Boardway and Stikine Sea Food canneries. A new cannery for A R. Brueger will soon be under con- struction.
 It would be far better to have a larger light plant with low rates so that everyone in the community might enjoy fully the advantages ment, than to hold to the present plant which is facing the problem of supplying present needs and cannot meet much increase in fu- ture demands.
 An outlay of twenty-five or thirty thousand dollars will construct concrete building in place of the present frame structure and buy an extra unit capable of doubling the power now produced. Such a plant could be bought on a ten-year pay ment basis. The present plant has cleared we'll over $500 every month besides paying operating expenses. upkeep and repair.
 A larger plant with increased pro duction and decreased rates, would provide additional comfort and pleasure in every home and be source of revenue to the city.

KENNECOTT INCORPORATED co. IS PROMOTING COPPER HOUSE

The Kennecott Copper corpora tion is advertising copper house" Tn this type of residence the roof will be copper. the siding cop per and all the piping also made of copper Insulation is obtained by glass fiber In the event that plas- ter is used. as in most residence construction. it is said that nothing would be burnable in the house ex- cept the floors and even the floors might be made of some non-burna- ble material.
 It is claimed by the promoters of this type of construction that an ordinary residence can be eomplet- ed at not more than 70 percent of the cost of the usual frame con struction.
 Additional good qualities about the copper house" are that 1t will last a couple of hundred years at least, needs no paint and that if the owner wishes to tear it down he can get at least $500 at present prices for the copper in the build ing.
 It is planned that the frame of such building will be made of steel. One of this type of houses Is now under construction near Ar lington. Virginia, and another and larger one, is to be built in Wash ington. DC.

PIONEERS HOME CHRISTMAS
By Filler Hansen, Superintendent

By Filler Hansen, Superintendent
 After all the planning and high hopes. because of unforeseen delays in obtaining equipment. it was found impossible to move into the new Home for the holidays. But the Old Boys made the best of a bad deal just like they have had to do so many times in the past. Every thing possible was done to make their Christmas pleasant and they all seemed to be grateful and ap- preciative. However. the employees and management can only do so much We can decorate their quar- ters, put up Christmas trees and give them an excellent dinner. It is we'll enough while it lasts, but the dinner is soon forgotten and the decorations are removed the day after New Years.
 The money which is annually subscribed to the Pioneers Christ mas fund means that each man in the Home can buy that which he particularly desires. Many of the men stretch their money to last them through the entire year More than the gift itself is the thought that they have not been forgotten by their friends. That throughout the Territory and in the States are men and women who believe that those who gave freely in their prime are deserving of a mite of cheer now that age and infirmity has overtaken them.
 The Pioneers sincerely thank each and everyone that helped to make their Christmas so pleasant.
 I render herewith an account of the money received and it's distri- button.

CANARY BTRDLETS MARBLE
 SWAN SONG AT POINT BARROW

Raising canary birds on the ton of the world is not a 'trilling' sue cess, according to a letter by Mrs. Henry w Greist, of Point Barrow. to Rev. E. E. Reisner, pastor of the Community church at Seward.
 Mir. Reisner had presented the nurse of the Farthest North hospi- tai with the parent birds as a start toward establishing an aviary in the ice-bound region.
 The old birls have endured the rigors of the north with fortitude. but the birdlets, though they ara rive with seasonal regularity, take good look at the bleak environs and do all their singing in the bird hereafter.
 Though the mother canary grows thin and discouraged with her eff forts to raise her broods, she in- Yariably reyives at each forthcom- ing matching and with her new family strives valiantly to populate the Far North with a singing troupe of yellow warblers, but to no avail
 She is encouraged in her efforts by the brave singing of her mate, but to date their combined efforts have proved fruitless, and Mrs Greist wrote for more instructions as to how to train young canaries al the northernmost outpost of civilization in the way they should go.

 History of Squircs
 The history of the Columbian Squire movement in Waterbury has been one of accomplishment from the very outset. Prior to the sponsorship of a circle by Sheridan Council, the Knights of Columbus conducted a course in boyology in the aldermanic chambers of the City Hall open to all interested in boys work. This was held in March, 1884, and was conducted by stephen Murray of the Boy Life Bureau.
 On May, 20, 1884, McGivney Cir cle was instituted in the former K. of c. club, 136 Grand street, with a charter class of 29 members being invested with the robes of office. The ritual was exemplifled by the degree team from Bishop O'Leary circle of Springfield, Mass.

 Grand Knight Maloney, when talked with this morning stated, q feel that Michael McGivney Cir. cle is entitled to great amount of praise for this fine honor which has just been bestowed. Int Knights of Columbus of Waterbury arc proud of their junior members and speaking for Sheridan Council, I take this opportunity to congrat- ulate the Squires.
 Praise For Leaders "I feel that most of the praise should go first of all to the boys themselves, then to their leader, "Pat" Wallace. who has been an inspiration to the circle since 1t was started and without whom many of the achievements of the past nine months would not have been possible. also believe that a fair share of credit must go to our Dis. trict Deputy. John F. Robinson, who, as Grand Knight of Sheridan Council, had the courage to place the Knights of Columbus behind the Columbian Squires movement in Waterbury.
 ITO the counselors. members of tho Advisory Board. and interested Knights of Columbus men also must go some share of the glory that Is now ours. Those who have done their work we'll and faithfully will be coptent with that know ledge now that the contest has end ed and the prize is in the hands of our boys. May they continue on to more such triumphs in Squiredom and later in Columbianism."
