Have you been up to see the new
Labor Temple? You have not! Well,
you’re not a good citizen of Anchor
age. The union boys have always
someone who will spare the time to
show you through, feeling no doubt,
that such courtesy is due to the peo
ple of Anchorage for their unanimous
attitude of approval towards the A. L.
I;. and what that organization stands
for.
When Jack Sutherland of the build
ing committee in an interview on De
cember 8, stated that the building
would be partially fitted for occupan
cy on December 23, so that an enter
tainment could be held therein—near
ly everyone thought that the speckled
boy had somewhat overshot the mark,
but it now looks as if he was entirely
within the bounds of probability and
in fact the union now comes forth
with the statement that they as a
body will stand back of his statement.
Did you ever realize that the union
hall is one of the very best frame
buildings in the whole United States?
Well, it is.
And furthermore problems in struc
tural engineering have been met and
overcome that seldom are encountered
in the rection of frame structures.
Why don’t you go up and see before
all the work that we last spoke of is
covered up?
The stage, auditorium, offices, lob
by and mezanine floor and the cloak
rooms, etc., will all be completed this
week. The plasterers have completed
their work and the painters have fin
ished the ceiling in the auditorium
and are now putting the final touches
on the balcony. This work is under
the foremanship of Gordon Robinson
and he expects to finish Thursday.
Frank McKinney who has charge of
the installation of steam heating sys
tem, has all radiators connected and
the system works perfectly in all de
tails.
Price and Bennett, who have the
plumbing contract, have a bunch of
talent looking after their work, in
cluding Fred Martin, “Spark Plug”
and Logemann and expect to com
plete their work Thursday.
J. Young, employed by Stoeser who
has the lighting contract has been
working overtime; he has all of the
wiring- completed that will be neces
sary for the opening of the hall.
The dance to be given by the Alas
ka Labor union in their new hall on
the night of December 23rd—Christ
ma seve—this coming Saturday—will
be the most elaborate function ever
pulled off in Anchorage, or elsewhere
in Alaska.
Be sure to be there and see the
new building and try the floor. There
will be room enough for the whole
population of the town to cavort at
the same time.
Every effort is being made to have
the event a success and the whole
union is acting as a committee to
make this first entertainment a suc
cess worthy of the magnificent
building.
To miss this event would be almost
as much of a fatality as to miss com
ing to Alaska. The very best of mu
sic.
SEATTLE DRY SQUAD GETS
ALASKAN STEAMSHIP PURSER
(Juneau Empire.)
According to word on the City
of Seattle, Purser C. H. Ruther
ford, of that steamer, was arrest
ed in Seattle by the dry squad as he
stepped ashore on the last trip south.
Mr. Rutherford was booked at head
quarters charged with “bringing in li
quor without a permit." The police
claim that when arrested he had a
suit case containing a quart of whis
key and a quart of gin which he was
carrying ashore. Mr. Rutherford was
released on $100 bail and his case had
not come to trial when the Seattle left
there last Monday. The victim of the
arrest claims that he was taking the
liquor ashore to be used in his family
for medicinal purposes.

Have You Had This Letter?
If a business man wrote to you on a scrap of paper and
never used a letter head, you would conclude he wasn't
much of a success—wouldn't you? A man who does not
use modern business methods cannot possibly compete with
the man who does. A man who pays all his bills by cash
and never by check does not impress people with being a
successful man.
If you pay your bills by checks on your Bank Account here
you are writing upon the Letter Head of Success.
