HIT HOUSE TENDERS mi sm II LETTER FROM SENATOR FUL TON SAYS THERE IS NO FEAR OF REMOVAL. The fear that the lighthouse head quarters would be removed from the mouth of the Columbia river to Bel- lingham Bay turns out to have beeu quite groundless, according to a let ter received by Mr. Whyte, manager of the Chamber of Commerce, yester day, from Senator Fulton. Mr. Ful ton says: "Referring again to the matter of the reported movement to have head quarters of the lighthouse district re moved from the Columbia River to Bellinghara Bay, I find that it a'l arose out of resolutions adopted by the Bellingham Chamber of Com merce asking that it be done. There is no disposition whatever on the part of the authorities here to make any change, as they say the Columbia Riv er is near the center of the district. The proposition to create an extra district is one that has been recom mended by the lighthouse board for several years and it arises out of a desire to have authority to create an additional district with a view ,o placing Alaska in a district by itse'f. That would have no influence in the matter of the location of the head quarters of the existing district."

Waterman'e ' The basketball game last night, in Athletic Club gymnasium between girls of the High School attracted goodly number of spectators, and was interesting from start to finish. The contest was between combination teams the Seniors-Freshman against the Sophomore-Juniors, and the Soph-Tuns won by the rather over whelming score of 34 to 10. This was the third game between th two teams, and each time the Sophomore-Junior girls have won the victory. The girls are beginning to show quite a little skill under the coaching of Principal Imel, and during the year there has been a marked development in High School athletics. Miss Lennah Parker, who playe'l guard for the S-J's, was perhaps the star of the evening, and she aided ma terialiy in piling up the score for her side. Following was the line-up: Senior-Freshmen Lenora McGr;g or and Margaret Ross, center; LeoU Ball, center guard; Bcrnice McGregor, Virginia Peterson, Maud Ross, for ward; Addie Abercrombie and Hazel Louden, guards. Sophomore-Juniors Grace Kennedy, center;. Blanche Heron, center guard; Fannie Gregory and Elva Jeldness, forward; Lennah Parker and Myrtle Harrison, guards. tffw warn im co Cash Prices Soup Meat, 3c to Sc lb.

Live Chickens always on hand, dress. ed to order. On Tuesday evening the Norwegian and Danish Methodist Church was crowded to overflowing by the always interested populace of the east end of the city. Every available seat and all standing room being occupied members of the Sunday school, their friends and elders, who had come to enjoy the celebrating of the birth of Christ. The decorations were said to have been without doubt the most elabo rate and spectacular of anything y shown in the city. In the center of the platform was a large tree over which was built a platform in the shape of a gambrel room. On the center of this arch or platform there had been placed a large candlestick, lavishly decorated, and made by Al bert Carlson, and perhaps intended to represent the Biblical seven golden candlesticks, only that this one would hold 15 large candles. On each side of this candlestick was placed three small trees, each one independently decorated in tinsel, garlands, popcorn and the customary silvery and golden little things that make green spruce trees so attractive at Christmas time The program of the Sunday school was well rendered, especially the sing ing of the whole school, thanks be to L. A. Larson's untiring patience training and teaching the children the beautiful Christmas songs. The church choir favored the udience with two selections entitled "Hoeslanna" and "Lovesanger." The male choir also sang, "Nearer, My God, to Thee," to a tune composed by L. A. Larson, The old custom of distributing pres. ents of intrinsic value to the Sunday school boys and girls has been discon tinued, but they had not been forgot ten as every member of the school received a little booklet containing name of school, etc., that all who might care to do so will have some' thing whereby they can remember the school and the Christmas .festivities of 1908, PERSONAL MENTION I!-IIII 685 Commercial St. Peter Sater of Bellingham, Wash!, is in the city, a guest at the home of his sister, Mrs. M.
