MERRY CHRISTMAS
FEELING PREVAILS
ON DOUGLAS ISLAND
DOUGLAS. Doc. 23. ? "Merry
i Christmas, Merry Christmas to AH"
i is the prevailing spirit on the Isl
: and today where a crisp, cold Christ
mas day seems promised. Eleventh
hour shoppers are making their last
trips to the stores and thus ending
! a busy Christmas season for both
merchants and buyers. Delivery
wagons and clerks have been busy
since early morning dispensing the
lots of dainties and substantials
(which will feature the tables of
several hundred families both to
morrow and Christmas Day.
Several private dinners have been
planned for Sunday but as Monday
is the real holiday of the season,
most of the birds are being reserv
ed for December 25.
All departments of the Tread well
mines, and business places on the
' Island will suspend .operations for
Christmas. Excepting the Fourth of
July this is the only holiday which
is generally observed at Treadwell.
Several fine turkeys, with all the
trimmings, will be served at the
Treadwell boarding house at noon
> Christmas. Steward L. S. Ferris
1 promises to have a real Christmas
tree inside the building and if ho
can anchor one, a lighted tree will
be displayed from the top of the
I mess house roof tonight and all
nights during the holidays.
