TIMES ISSUES EXTRA.
Anchorage’s theatre street, 4th ave

young Broadway last night and the
avenue was crowded with theatre
geors passing between the Empress

poor bills and did not draw so well. Tto
give the busy avenue a truly metro
politan spirit of activity, one dozen
wide-awake newsboys were dodging in
and out of the crowd crying out the
head lines of The Times extra, hot off
the press. The newsboys reaped a
harvest and sold over 400 copies of
the second extra gotten out by The
Times since the recent war and rum
ors of war. In giving the people of
Anchorage such efficient press service,
The Times is simply sustaining its
reputation as being the best news
paper in Alaska.
