More Than 700
 At Community
 Xmas Last Mite

Before one of the largest crowds to ever attend the Community Xmas Tree program in Nome, the school children of both public & native schools here. presented their Christmas program to the thorough enjoyment of more than TOO people assembled in the school auditorium. Five hundred chairs on the main floor were complete ly filled and there were more than two hundred persons in the gallery, besides numerous ones standing on the ground floor.
 Each phase of the program pro- ceeded smoothly and to the great pleasure of the audience. Follow ing the regular program Santa Claus appeared to distribute more than four hundred and fifty Xmas stockings to the children assembled. .t;
 Some practical joker pulled off some rich humor by having San la Claus read several letters from individuals in Nome, who were purported to have signed them.
 Hilarious applause followed each reading of the letters, which were humorous and really inno- cent of any intent. The "gag" took the fancy of the enormous crowd, as Santa paraded around greeting everyone.
 Comments heard on all sides reflected the sentiment that this years program excelled by far any recent affairs held in Nome, and that the Christmas Tree Com munity Affair, was destined for far greater heights than it has attained in the past.

JUNEAU ENJOYS BEST WEATHER
 IN TWO YEARS
Weatherman Makes Com
 parison of Past Dry Spells in City

Although everyone is remarking about the fine weather the city is basking iA, the weather man says it really is nothing to brag about It is true that these balmy days are the incest summer weather Juneau has seen since July 1894, when nine days of very warm weather with no precipitation were enjoyed.
 But if you are thinking of out standing dry periods lark back to July 1915, MT. Weatherman says. Then there were g days of a maxi mum temperature of 70 degrees or higher. During Is of those g days the maximum temperature was 75 degrees and higher, and for 12 days it was 80 degrees or higher.
 The highest temperature record for Juneau occurred during that period July 26, 1915, when maxi mum temperature of 89 degrees was recorded. There were only five days with precipitation, the total for the month being OPS inches, which is the least monthly precipitation for any month which has been recorded over a period of 41 years.

 Those things in Evergreen Bowl are being arranged at cost to the city for the purpose of giving the children a safe place to play" the Mayor said, and we must have the cooperation of all if they are to be preserved for their use. We can't carry on the work if things are constantly damaged and de- stroyed."
 City Magistrate Henning de- clared that offenders would be fully prosecuted. This juvenile vandal- ism must stop,' he declared, and those we catch are going to be dealt with as the law provides. I don't care who they are. they are going to be prosecuted if caught"
 He said that some of the children have been skating on the new ten his courts in the bowl which is ab- solutely prohibited.
 Both officials urge that parents caution their children against vio- lating the rules and general moles- tation in the bowl.
