A. i “In the Land of Santa Claus,” is the title of the lecture that Elmer | Reed, assistant to the Secretary of the Territory, will deliver at a spe-' cial meeting this evening in the auditorium of the Juneau grade school building. “There is a Santa Claus,” said the veteran trail blazer of the Northland and erstwhile resident of all her hurrah camps, as he re-! clined today in a comfortable chair in his office in the Capitol. i - there wasn't, neither I nor any of my fellow men would reach the| age I have aftained, and I'm not old; mind you. Some folks wonder why we don't live forever. I marvel that we live at all.

It's an-| other story of Alaska's past and | present, of her old and her new | ways., Say something in the pa-| per, if you please, about my re- furbished picture slides and my im- | preved prejection machine.” ‘Well, Mr. Reed quite recently had | all his picture slides hand colored, ‘ so they arc true to life and na- ture. His projecting machine, late- | ly acquired, operates the vie 50 | that they almost shade into onc| another, simulating the effects of | motion pictures and nppuump; strikingly like them. | Mr. Reed has also polished up | his lecture. All of it is absorbing- ly interesting. He has frequenily delivered the illustrated address m\ the States and in this Territory for | paid admissions. Tonight's er tainment «will be fres, and for .hA‘ first time he will make use of th | hand-colored siides and the improv- \ ed projecting machine. Besides Mr. Reed's lecture, two musical selections will be given this cvening.
