Civic Club Luncheon
 Held Under Difficulty

The Women's Civic Club held it's regular luncheon meeting last Sat urday despite many hindrances and not in months have the women so thoroughly manifested their spirit of do or die" as at this meeting.
 To begin with the very elements were adverse, as WrangelIs first snowfall last Friday had turned into quite a storm by Saturday. Then when the hostesses for the day, Mrs. DeRemer and Mrs. Bjorge, ar- rived at the Legion hall to make preparations for the meeting, they discovered the oil heater wouldn't heat After many frantic efforts to locate a meeting place without suc- cess due to other heating plants be- ing out of order that day, it was decided to hold the meeting at the M. o. Johnson home. The decision was made too late to notify mem bers and many gallant women wad- ed through the snow to Legion hall only to have to retrace their steps and go to the Johnson home.
 The luncheon was a bring-your- own sandwich affair with the host esses providing coffee and dessert It was tragic moment when one of the hostesses dropped and broke the dish containing the dessert and it seemed that the luncheon would be a "bring your own sandwich ant get no dessert" However, members came to the aid of the hostesses and more dessert was made. The sand. wiches were pooled and the many disasters were turned into a very merry meeting.
 There was but little business tC be transacted which gave the clut more time to enjoy a talk on tho art of weaving by Miss Harriet Caldwell who spent the past sum mer in the mountains of Nortt Carolina where the superior weaving 1 of the mountaineer women ha! never died out. Miss Caldwell haC many beautiful handwoven articles on display and her talk was mos ] instructive and interesting.

Alaska Future Bright
 If Strike Breaks Soon

L. NJ. Campbell returned home on the Princess Louise Monday night from a ftye-weeks trip to Seattle and California points He arrived in San Francisco on the last day of the big celebration held ln honor of the opening of the San Francisco-Oak- land bridge and states that despite all he had read and heard concern ing the bridge, he had failed to real ize the marvel of such an achieve ment.
 Both in Seattle and San Francis co he found much optimism for a prosperous year ahead if the mari time strike can be settled soon. But no one can shut his eyes to the fact that otherwise it will be a crushing blow to Alaska. Eighty-five per cent of the salmon pack moves to the east coast by water and ' , per cent of this years pack is still on the docks.
 The insurance, interest on ad- yances and wharfage costs are daily taking their toll of the cannerymen The Wrangell packs are among those still on the Seattle docks and every case landed there before Sep tember 1st and still there by the first of January is subject to taxes.
 MT. Campbell stated mat if the strike is settled soon, everything looks encouraging for a prosperous year for Alaska. His last week in Sc, attle was spent in bout with in tluenza in which he emerged vic torious but considerably lighter in weight.

 TRIP DOWN PACIFIC COAST

Al Anderson returned on tEe Prin- cess Louise Monday night from a three-months' trip in the states. He bought a Studebaker car in Seat tie and piling in camping equip ment, drove alone down the Pacific coast into Mexico.
 It was his first trip outside Tn four years and he found the great est change to be the trailers on the highway. He said it seemed to him that literally thousands of fam lilies had taken to trailers, either for vacation trips or as permanent abodes. Some of them stop along and work in the fruit orchards, and all seemed to be having a good time regardless of whether their trailer were factory made or of home manufacture.
