Gannet, and the U. 8. 8. | Unalga, in uniform, lent a distinc- tive touch to the dance given in their honor by the Juneau Cham- ber of Commerce at the Elks’ Hall last night. Excellent music and a large crowd of representative Juneau people, as well as the presence of the mem- bers of the U. S. Coast Guard and the Navy, tended to make the dance one of the most successful affairs |to be given in Juneau this summer. In addition to the many dancers, the balcony was filled with onlook- ers. The dance began at 9:30 o'clock| and continued until 1 o'clock. An ‘exccpt‘wnal]y good time was enjoyed by all those who attended the party and it afforded the civilians of Juneau an opportunity to get better acquainted with the person- nel of the two ships now basing here. —————— PRSP T RO RC R IR g TIDES TOMORROW 2 M/)mtlfl” :...uo.cooao" From Conterted Cows High tide, 4:24 am., 148 feet.
