Following the custom peculiar to
5th avenue of New York, the elite of
Anchorage will emulate their Knicker
bocker ancestors and display their
Easter bonnets and gowns in fashion- :
able parade Sunday afternoon. Aside 1
from the array of fashion taking the
form of a 4th avenue instead of a 5th
avfenue procession, and the difference
in time, the two occasions will virtual- ;
(ly be similar, at least they will bring
j the same results.
Barney Simons, of the Bon Marche,
! has pontooned his corner, making gon
dolas unnecessary, but he needn’t
think that ho has a corner on the •
water front; there are other corners
equally as wet and sloppy. For in
stance there is the corner of 4th and
C and 4th and D. The frozen condi
tion of the ground makes the situation
disagreeable, but the city administra
tion is doing everything in its power
to alleviate the situation and in the
meantime the price of rubber boots
i is on a steady rise.
Gus Garifell, who recently built
i three building on the Conroy lot on
Mth avenue has opened up a modern
fruit stand in one of the new build
ings. Gus received a large and as-,
sorted stock of fresh and candied fruit i
and vegetables on the Evans and has
j his stock attractively displayed in
; pyramids of grape fruit, golden or- ;
anges, yellow lemons, red apples and
. clusters of bananas. He also carries
| smaller vegetables such as asparagus, i
j rhubarb, lettuce and radishes, in ad
I dition to an assortment of candied ap
ricots, oranges and figs. Gus hasI
; made arrangement for a shipment on
every boat and will keep the market
supplied with fresh fruits and vege
tables during the summer.
CARNIVAL DRAWS CROWDS.
The people of Anchorage are strong
for carnivals and not because of the i
lure of the dime but because there is [
something contagious in a crowd that
calls for a good time. And again
there are so many attractions. Labor j
Temple was crowded again last night j
and the carnival spirit was very much
ill evidence and everybody had a good
time. The dance floor was the best
payer last night but the various booths :
all drew well and added to the sum
total of receipts. Tonight will be an
other big night at the carnival that
will be featured by new attractions.
Mrs. Lewis’ lecture, “The Movie as
a Public Educator,” will be postponed
until next Friday night, April 13. 758
