ionary Society of the First Presby
terian church entertained the nat
ives who are In Skagway. The af
fair was ontirely informal, consist
ing of a few games and a general
social time among themselves rrd
with whites who came. Over twenty
of the natives were present. Lunch
eon tables were spread and about
thirty sat down to partake of sand
wiches, cakes. cofTee, aples and pop
corn. Speeches and story-telling en
livened the luncheon. A number of
the Natives telling anecdotes of
their travels and hunting experienc
es.
A small Christmas tree with incau
descent lights added the pleasant
touch of Christmas to the party. All
bad a merry time.
SCHOOL XF.WS
I.ast Monday tlie high school and
eighth grade were Made liappy when
they were advised to put on their
wraps and report to Misa Stone's
room. Hero they were told that
they might go to learn how men
were naturalized. Accompanied by
Miss Barron, they proceeded to the
court room, where they witnessed
flic naturalization uf four individu
als. The visit proved to he not on
ly very instructive, but also most
interesting.
Skagwav is leading in her punc
tuality record this year. Both the
high school and grades rank 100
per cent. In punctuality for the
mouth of December. The high
school also holds a record of 100
per cent in attendance this month,
as does the elghtt grade, but the
first seven grades have fallen short,
of this month.
A new system vt five bells has
been installed in the school building.
Instead of the former beating of the
triangle, electric bells will announce
the lire drills hereafter. Bells have
been installed on each floor and
push buttons located in each of the
main halls, as well as in the base
ment. With the new hose purchas
ed last spring and the telephone con
nection. the school children are
well protected against any chance of
fire.
On Wednesday last, the shortest
day of the year, Mr. Walker took
two snap-sbots of the school build
ing with the children grouped on
the front steps. The pictures are to
be used by the Alaskan Publicity
Bureau.
No formal program by the Public
School was planned for ihe Christ
inas season this yeur, but practical
ly all of the pupils are taking part
in the various Sunday school pro
grams.
The Christmas ieason has been
emphasized, however, in the work
throughout the grades, in music,
drawing, geography and literature,
so that all are well aware of the
fact that Christmas Is coming.

COLDS AFFECT
THE KIDNEYS
Many Skagway People Have Fonnil
This to be True
Are yon wretched In bad weather?
noes every cold settle on your
kidneys?
Does your back sche and become
weak?
Are urinary passages irregular
and distressing?
These symptoms are cause to sus
pect kidney weakness.
Weakened kidneys need quick
help.
Doan's Kidney Pills are especial
ly prepared for weakened kidneys.
Grateful people recommend them.
J. L. Messersmith, blacksmith, 700
E. Webb St., Petileton, Oregon,
says: "Doan's Kidney Pills are my
old standby. Whenever I caught a
cold In my kidneys It caused irv
back to ache and 1 suffered with
kidney complaint. At times when
I stooped over, sharp pains caught
me in the small of my back and 1
had to raise up slowly. My kidneys
acted too frequently, causing me to
get up many times during the night.
Doan's Kidney Pills quickly banish
ed the backache and put my kidneys
in good condition. I still keep
Doan's on hand to use in case of
necessity."
