Electrical and Floral Display for
A. B. Ball Will be Un
ique
The Easter ball to be given by
the Arctic Brotherhood on April
8 will be unique in many ways.
The electrical display and floral
decorations will be of a more
elaborate nature than anything
ever seen in Alaska.
It will be no dress affair, as
gingham dress or low-neck gown,
overalls or broadcloth all will be
welcome. The invitations are now
being issued and it is safe to say
all who receive them will attend.
Tho ball will mark the parsing
of winter and the coming of
spring.
Tho Arctic Brotherhood mem
bers hope their dance will bo woll
patronized, as they aro ambitious
to show tho people of Valdez what
the hospitality of the ord^r is
like.
Tickets aro on sale at the drug
stores and the Candy Kitchen for
$1.50 each. Holders of tickets
will bo required to present their
invitations at tho door.
