SERVICE TEA
The cabin , home of Robert Serv
ice, bard of th© Yukon, was a cen
ter of gayety in Dawson last eve
ning. Hundreds flocked there and
enjoyed the evening as guests of
Klondike chapter of the Daughters
of the Empire. The home was
brilliant with flags and electric
lights, Japanese lanterns and many
other gay decorations.
Large tents and other picturesque
booths afforded comfortable retreats
where the guests found seats and
were Ferved with li^ht refreshments.
The members of the chapter,
comprising young unmarried ladies
of the city, were attired in Japan
ese costumes, and served the guests.
All the costumes v«>re moat beoom
lhg.
A laree platform was erected on
the edge of the sidewalk, and first
class music was provided, with John
Dines leading the orchestra. A
heavy canvas was spread over the
boards, and dancing was one of
the chief diversions of th« evening.
The cabin was opened, and many
of the guests went there and viewed
the haunts of the obet, and saw
some of his musings just as he had
#criDbled them on the wall with pen
cil. One of the must conspicuous
was over the door in large letters,
and ??id, "Don't Worry; Work."
A 'arge stove was kept hot in the
cabin kitchen, where the coffee was
prepared, and where the dishwashing
corps, did its unpoetic, but e<sential
stunts.
The home of Turner Townsena,
adjoining the poet's place, also
was utilized in. receiving the guests.
The Townsend place was gay in
lanterns and flags, ad was render*
e-' further attractive by the yard
ful of beautiful, full-blown flowers
of many varieties. Mr. Townsend
provided and put in position the
many flags used apout the Service
grounds. He was ably assisted by
John. Ferguson. Mrs. Culbertson,
the regent, and til* members of
tlie chapter also did much hard
work preparatory to the event
and in looking to the comfort of
the guests during the evening. A
large sum was netted for benefit
o' the patriotic cause. The base
ball game which was schdeuled to
be played as an auxiliary attrac
tion did not take place, owing
to the failure of Senator Shane's
Bears to come down out of the
woods to offer battle to the Daw
son Wolves.—Dawson News.
Distributors of a number of the
popular brands of chewing gum, dis
tributin.o more than 2,000,000,000

CUOSS FOR GALLANTRY
It will be gratifying news to the
many Cordova friends of Jack
Courtney to know that be hag been
cited by General Pershing in his
official communique for an act of
gallantry, and has been awarded a
distinguished service cross.
The citation shows that the act
in which our townsman participat
ed, together with two others, oc
curred on April 10 last, and is set
forth as follows:
"Sergeant John J. Courtney, in
fantry; Sergeant Lee P. T. Jacques,J
infantry, and Private Alfred P.
Lee. infantry—During the action
of April 10, 1918, displayed cour
age, coolness and the spirit of
self-sacrifice in voluntarily going
through a shell-swept area to bring
back wounded to a place of safety,
carrying one wounded man more
than l'ifty yards, under heavy
shell 'Ire."—Cordova Times.
In n letter received a few days
since from E. E. Kennard, late mem
ber o* the R. N. W. M. Police, and
stationed at Carcross for several
months prior to his leaving in the
Mounted Police regiment recruited
in Yukon and other Northwestern
territories, Mr. Kennard states
that bis troops are stationed at
Thorncliff, England. H« says the
encamument is in a beautiful spot
and that as soon as they wore out
of quarantine they would get
down to hard work. He likes It
and hopes soon to go "over there."
Trooper Kennard has had quite
some army experience, having serv
ed for six years '-n Uncle Sam's
army, cavalry branch, before join
ing the R. N. W. M. P. The best
wisnes of many friends will go out
to Trooper Kennard and wisnes for
his safe return.
Representatives of the talking
machine manufactories have been
in Washington, recently, in confer
ence with the United States Fuel
Administration concerning a pro
posed restriction of the product of
these factories. While no agree
ment has been announced, it is prob
abl© that the curtailment will a
mount to 50 per cent of the ma
chines and 30 per cent of the re
cords heretofore produced annually.
Salute Gives Him Away.
Chester, Pn.—Masquerading as a
woman, Private John Hutchinson for
got himself when he passed an officer
and saluted. As a result he was ar
rested and turned over to the military
for punishment. Hutchinson was
dressed stylishly. He wore a low-cut
gown, high-heeled shoes, white stock
ings, summer furs and a large picture
hat.
