A new firm will be added to Wrangells business list, when 5 w. Jenkins opens his new cafe in day or two.
 Construction on the new build ing was started by MT. Jenkins last fall and proceeded smoothly until the cold weather of the first of tha year. The building is 24 by 40 and is very well built. The interior finish is plyboard stained in light oak and vanished. Every part was planned with the thought of mak ing an attractive, comfortable place for customers, and efficiency and convenience of service.
 A 20-foot counter has nine chai winch are exceptionally comfortd blC Five booths will seat 20 persons without crowding.
 The kitchen range is the first one installed in Wran in which a deisel oii burner is built in. In stead of the usual hood of galvan- ized iron over the range, MT. Jen- kins built the hood of plyboard and wrapped the stove pipes with as Destos This gives greater hood depth and ventilation.
 The pastry table extends one sd of the kitchen and tops built-iL features that make for economy of labor. Credit for all the cabinet work is given by Mir. Jenkins to Iyor Axberg who built the back bar and counter also.
 Mrs. Jenkins will be associated in the business with her husband and will be responsible for the home made bread and pastry which the cafe will feature.
 Hot and cold lunches and short orders will be served during the next month or six weeks, after which the service will be expanded not only in the line Of meals, but will include a soda fountain.
 The new cafe has not yet been given a name. The town will pro- bably call it "Bill's and Elsie's," as they did when MT. and Mrs. Jen- kins were proprietors a few years ago of the Den O. Sweets in Wran- gell.

The election is not for the clerk of the board, as after each annual city election, the school board organizes anew and chooses it's officers of president, treasurer and clerk. However, there is no question but that the new school board member will be ex- pected to perform the clerks duties. The candidates, each nominated by a flattering list of friends, are Mrs. Mae Grant, Miss Helen Hofstad and the Rev. Russell F. Pederson. Russell +. Pederson, who was ap- pointed the first of the year by the town council to fill the vacancy on the school board caused by the res ignation of Mrs. M. o.

 The mayor for the coming yea will be F. S. Barnes as he is un opposed for that office in the city election of next Tuesday.

 Six business men are candidates for the city council with three to be elected for a twoyear term.
 Longest Residence
 Gle Johnson has lived in Wran- gell the longest of any of the can. didates. He came here in 1898 and worked at the carpenter trade, as store clerk, prospector and fish erlnan until 1919 when he went into the general merchandise busi- ness which he still conducts,
 He has been successful in busi- ness and is one of the larger pro. perty owners in town. He cannot be commended too highly for the stand he takes in improving his ren- tai properties. Each one, as he de- s+ fA I,, community.
 Mir. Johnson believes that the towns expenditures are mounting too rapidly and that economy must be practiced more rigidly. q am against spending money reckless ly," he states; "the town should accumulate a surplus instead or going into debt for Improvements and adding a big bill of interest for taxpayers to pay" He also calls at tention to the fact that "there is no real resource here except fish ing" and we should not expect it to provide revenue for all the improv2- ments that people think would be nice to have, regardless of the cost Nevertheless, we predict that ii MT. Johnson is elected, he will plan and scheme how to stretch each dollar so that improvements may be made. Every citizen with any pride is ashamed of the conditions of our streets, for instance, and wants them remedied. We believe ; MT. Johnson would be economical in spending public money, but that he would spend it like he does his own, for the betterment of the com munity as a place in which he could take pride and satisfaction.
 Community Betterment c. c. Mundy has been a resident of Wrangell for 22 years. Since 1920 he has been a fish buyer and packer. He has been very successful in the management of his busi- ness. His own home is one of the loveliest places in town and all of his residence properties are kept in good condition. None are allowed to deteriorate, "I am in favor, of better | roads, streets and other improve ments where needed" states MT. Mundy, "also continuation of clear ing and beautifying the school grounds for the children. I stand for strict policing of the streets, for enforcement of law and order and believe that a stop should be put to rowdyism on the streets. If elect ed to the council I will work to 1 benefit the town and the people | therein"
