Of N. C. Store, .
From- Trip to Seattle
Dewey Goodrich returned yes
terday from a two-week buying
trip to Seattle. While there he met
with managers oMive other major
stores of the N. C. Company and
discussed company policies.
He noted that small household
electrical appliances were harder
to get, also copper kettles and in
a lesser degree aluminum ware.
In ready-to-wear he found that
nylon, was going to be short, also
that wool garments cost more at
the factory now than prevailing
retail prices.
In the meat department, prime
beef w?s hard to buy as the
farmers are refusing to sell at
OPS prices.
Mr. Goodrich announced that

Miss Betty Colby is joining the
N. C. staff here, in charge of
women’s wear. She flew from
Florida to assist in the spring buy

MINER'S SUNDAY AT
COMMUNITY CHURCH
t *
This Sunday will be observed
-
as Miner’s Sunday at the Com
munity Methodist Church, with a
special service planned for the
mining people of the community.
■
While many churches observe the
first Sunday in May in south
east Alaska as “Fisherman’s Sun
day,” and across the rural areas
of our country as “Rural Life Sun
day” this church, first organized
in Nome in 1899, has been the
church of the mining people
through the years, and has set
this Sunday apart in their special
recognition.
Of interest will be a display
of pictures of the early days. Rev.
Treat, Pastor, will give as his
message “The Wealth God Wants
Us to Find.”

WE CHECK YOUR TANK REGULARLY
Ben Young
POLET SAYS . . .
That he finds the biggest handicap in the de
velopment of the tourist industry is the lack of
knowledge of the Nome citizens of the wealth that
Nome possesses in places of interest to the visitor.
WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
Our share toward it will be the free use of
this space to all interested persons to bring in to
this paper or the store all suggestions they have
to offer.
What have we that will interest the tourist?
What part are you willing to take to help
Nome or your own town to build this valuable
industry?
