 DAY BRINGS
 CELEBRATION
Juneau Lodge Mem bers Will Honor Founder of
 Mooseheart with Dinner

Almost a half million men and
 women in the United States and
 Canada will celebrate the birthday
 of prominent living American
 today, October 27. The man so
 honored is James J. Davis, United States Senator from Pennsylvania
 and Director General of the Loyal
 Order of Moose, and who has held
 the post of Secretary of Labor in
 the cabinets of three Presidents. The continents wide celebration of his natal day by his brother and
 sister fraternalists is inspired not
 merely by the position he holds as
 head of one of the greatest frater-
 mites in the world, but by the fact
 that he founded the Child Welfare
 City of Mooseheart on Oct. 27, B
 years ago. And on this day, in 1913, Thomas R. Marshall, then
 Vice-President of the United States,
 dedicated Mooseheart on the forty
 first birthday of its founder, James
 J. Davis.
 The fact that the anniversary of
 Mooseheart and the birthday of its
 founder both fall on the same date caused it to become known through out the fraternity at "Mooseheart Day" This date is to the average Moose what July is to the aver age Americana day of rejoicing. On this date the famed child city of Mooseheart was founded.
 Today, Mooseheart comprises an estate of 1,200 acres situated 35 miles west of Chicago on the banks of the beautiful Fox River. It is a home and school for more than one thousand dependent children of deceased m mbers of Moose, where each child is given a home with mothers care, a high school education, and an opportunity to learn one or more of the 23 trades taught, including various branches of art and agriculture.
 
 Today in Juneau in celebration of this day, the men, and women of the Moose are having a joint The plans for the even ing include a hot dish dinner to be served at 6:30 o'clock tonight, followed by program and danc- ing. |
 c. H. MasSpadden will be toast master at the banquet tonight. Committee members who have made arrangements for the even ing's entertainment are Mrs. Si- gurd Olson, chairman, and Mrs. H. Starr and John Toryinen. on the kitchen committee and Eske Es- keson, George Jorgenson, Edward Rodenberg. Robert Light and Will liam Bergstrand on the mems pro- gram committee.

Contest
 Now Announced
All Alaskans Are Eligible to Contest for CasR
 Awards

A slogan contest especially for Alaska residents is now being an- nounced through the Territory by the Canned Salmon Industry. An opportunity to win cash prizes and at the same time help increase the sales of Alaskas most popular pro- duct is offered in this great slogan contest.
 Cash prizes starting with first award of $50, will be the reward for the best slogans in ten words or less about Canned Salmon.
 The contest is open to all resi- dents of Alaska and to all employ ees of the Canned Salmon Industry and their families.
 William Timson, Chairman of the Advertising committee, in an- nouncing the contest said: "The contest not only gives the residents of Alaska a chance to win cash prizes, but it also gives them the opportunity to participate in the in dustry's effort to stabilize sales of Canned Salmon and increase the money returns to Alaska from the Canned Salmon Industry. This in- dustry now pays three quarters of the taxes of the Territory. Our advertising is an industry effort to stabilize the market and make pos- sible our continued support. It is our plan to the slogans submitted in making this advertising even more effective during the coming year. Perhaps some fisherman or cannery worker will in his spare off season time coin a slogan that will not only win him fifty dollars, but also help sell more salmon and so make his job next season more se- cure"
