SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS
TO STAGE MISSION DRIVE
Members of the Nome Seventh
Day Adventist Sabbath School
will participate in the denomina
tion’s one-day drive, Saturday,
March 25, to raise funds from its
Sabbath School to complete a
$400,000 sixty-bed hospital in
Pakistan, Pastor Marvin Trout- j
man, Sabbath School superintend
ent announces.
The hospital, located in K*tra-1
chi, the capital city, is nearly
completed and doctors and nurses
trained in American Adventist
medical schools are now making
preparations to go to the hospital
as medical missionaries, the su
perintendent said. Adventist lead
ers are hoping for $40,000 from
this offering, part of which will be
set aside to help start a publish
ing house at Chuharkana, Paki
stan.
Missionaries reports read to the
Sabbath Schools each Saturday
since the first of the year indicate
a “new interest” in Christianity in
Pakistan, Mr. Troutman remark
ed. Since its political independ
ence in August, 1947, a spirit of
freedom has been felt. Rapid so
cial and religious changes have
taken place and hundreds of thou
sands have shown a definite inter
est in the story of Jesus Christ.
Leaders of the country “welcome
the cooperation and help of Chris
tions,” he said.
Every three months Adventist
Sabbath Schools raise over SI,000,
000 to carry on their established
mission program in 228 of the 282
countries of the world, the super
intendent reports. Once each quar
ter an offering is taken for special
projects. Chapels, churches, hos
pitals, dispensaries and many
other building projects have been
established throughout the world
by these special offerings.

DICKMAN-TWEET NUPTIALS
CELEBRATED AT TELLER
By far the loveliest wedding
ever to take place in Teller was
that in the Catholic Church on
March eighth when Miss Phyllis
Tweet became the bride of Sgt.
Orville J. Dickman. Vows were
exchanged in a double ring cere
mony performed by Father Mur
phy who made a special trip from
Nome for the occasion.
The bride was radiant in the
traditional gown and finger-tip
veil which was held in place by
a coronet halo. Her bridesmaid,
Miss Evelyn Tweet, was lovely
dressed in blue. Both girls wore
rose corsages. Glenn Tweet,
brother of the bride, acted as best j
man.
After the ceremony an informal
ceremony was held at the home of
the bride’s mother, Mrs. Mary
Tweet, where relatives and friends
gathered to wish the young couple
much happiness in their future
together.
In the evening, a family dinner
was served in honor of the bride.
and groom at the home of the
bride’s grandparents, Mr. and
Mrs. N. B. Tweet. Assisting were
Mrs. Harold Tweet and Mrs. Bill
Tweet.
The young couple will leave for
Nome within the next two weeks
where they will be at home on
Third Avenue.

Alaska Has Largr
Peal Deposits
WASHINGTON, ,R> — Del egaU
Bartlett of Alaska sa>s Alaska
has countie s resources that can
be developer! under Statehood to
make it economically secure.
Recalling the emphasis laid on
Alaska's location in the House de
bate that preceded passage of the
bill to makr the Territory a state,
Bartlett said military considera
tions alone do not make Alaska
important to the United States.
“Of equal importance are our
vast expanses of valuable unde
veloped natural resources,” he
continued in a statement in the
Congressional Record. “Neither
in agriculture nor industry have
we begun to tap the wealth of re
sources that wait only to be put
to productive use.”
As an example, Bartlett urged
development of the Territory’s
peat deposits, saying their utiliza
tion would be valuable to agricul
ture and oimmcrcc.
He said other countries were
using peat and that Russia has
found it riot only a source of low
cost fuel but of industrial chemi
cals, build digs materials, insula
tion and fertilizers.
In the United States, he added,
peat has been used for insulation
and fertil '.ers. Research, he said,
probably will develop other uses.
