The Xmas Spirit

Christmas only 19 days and little if any of the traditional Kodiak Christmas spirit is in evidence.
 Most of the stores have assumed holiday garb but few of the local organizations and social clubs have announced plans for celebrating Christmas However the Kodiak Ro try Club will give their annual Christmas Riddles Party at the 0rpheum Theatre this but the big Christmas tree is missing from the local scene.
 good way to invoke the Christmas spirit is to pur chase Christmas seals The annual sale of the pretty little stiCkers Buy today you will help some un- fortunate person and at the time help in the nation wide fight against tuberculosis.

Will there be a Christmas tree this year IS an often heard question this week. Last year the Kodiak Rotary Club sponsored the project and a fine big tree was set up in the lot between Dads Barber Shop and the Log Cabin Liq- uor Store. Maybe the Christ mas spirit is late this year.
 The following is from The Alaska Liner, Alaska Steam ship Company monthly bull letin: "John Titus decided he , didn't want to run for mayor of Kodiak and is back in An chorage. He plans to go out side for his vacation in De-, cember. Kodiak must have been too much for him."
