In a letter received by tine pub
lisher of the Nugget, from Elmer
Reed, for many years a resident of
Nome but now located at Juneau,
he advises the Nugget to offer his
book of Sourdough poems for sale
at 25 cents due to the fact, that he
is out of work and wishes to die-,
pose of his books and realise some
financial returns thereby. Anyone
wishing to obtain a copy can do so
by calling at the Nugget Office,
the entire receipts from the sale
of the poems will be forwarded
to Mr. Reed and one and all of
you sourdoughs are expected to
come thru with two bits and ass
ist a worthy cause. The booklet
'is well worth the price and the
collection of peoms contained there
in cannot be obtained in any other
form. They are old sourdough
gems from the early days, so
“come down sometime" and get
a copy.
NOTICE
Anyone receiving news of friends
or others returning to Nome- at
any tim6, the Nugget would appre
ciate an opportunity of making
local mention of same.

JOAN BENNETT PORTRAYS LIFE
AS SHE LIVES AND SEES IT
To portray life one must have
lived, felt and fought life, which
serves to explain why the screen
characterisations of Joan Bennett,
who is co-featured with Hardie
Albright fp the Fox drama, “Hush
Money” at the Dream Theatre, Sun
day, are always so true, so sin
cere.
Late n neteen twenty-eight found
Joan Bennett pretty much out of
sorts with the world. Not yet
eighteen, she was already a wife
and a mother. She was alone, with
absolutely no one to look to for
financial support as she'” had hau
ghtily separated from her youth
ful husband, taking their child
with her.
But the trad tions of the stage,
she Is the granddaughter of the
late Louis Morrison, noted Shak
espearean actor, and daughter of
Richard Bennett, and Adrienne
Morrison, present day legitimate
s'age stars, said she must <carry
on. All that she had learned from
life of self discipline, courage fort
itude, self reliance, she had need
of in these dark months.
She made her first public ap
pearance in “Jarnegan” which was
produced by her father and In
which she starred.
