XO PAPER TOMORROW.
Tomorrow being Christinas the
Daily Alaskan will not be issued a
gain until Friday afternoon.
THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY.
Only a few short hours now In
tervene between the present time
and the annual rejoicing and good
cheer incident to the observance of
the Christinas holiday. The spirit
of good will and charity prevades
the whole community—men, women
and children.
The smiling, cheerful faces of the
children, who are eagerly anticipat
ing the joys that are sure to be
theirs; the loving pains that are be
ing bestowed by parents upon the
selection and preparation of things
to delight the litlte ones' hearts;
the elaborate schemes that are be
ing devised by religious, fraternal
and benevolent societies to cause
the day to be one to be long re
membered are witnesses to the
beneficient influences that emanate
from and have become a^art of thia
time honored custom of Christmas
observance.
PHENOMEN AL PROGRESS.
A striking example of the prodig
ious energy with which the construc
tion work of the Panama-Pacific In
ternational Exposition is being pros
ecuted is furnished in the case ofath
Palace of Food Products, one of the
eleven main exhibit palaces, situated
at tho northwest corner of the main
group of eight immediately; adjacent
palaces. The erection of the sup
erstructure of this palac<> was com
menced October 1, 1913. At the
end of the ensuing 30 days 900,000
feet of material had been put in the
superstructure, meaning that the
frame was about SO per cent, iu
place by Noember 1, the entire struc
ture being 45 per cent. done. The
construction of the walls and roof
has been carried on coineidently,
and application of the staff and plas
ter covering has been started. This
phenomenal progress was made l>y
a forco averaging 185 men during
the month. The immensity of the
work may be realized when it is
known that the Palaco of Food Pro
ducts covers an area of more than
five acres and is 96 feet high to
top of ridge and 160 feet high to
top of dome, above the floor.
