j 'NOME NUGGET
| Nome, Alaska.
This time the first thing that
j we want to tell you is that we
j have "sure appreciated the Nome
| Nugget this winter, the moBt of
| any win er since we have been in
I the country, and the natives here
| are anxious to get the paper also,
j and we have passed it around
! every time that it has come, and
| some times we have sent it on up
l the line as some of the folks do
3 not take It up the line and they
■ are always glad to get it, so they
3 may see the local npws as well
3 as the foreign news.
■ We have been much interested
j in the nerws from Kotzebue, as we
3 spent three years there and
3 are well acquainted with your
3 correspondent from there and we
j are glad that she has taken to this
3 work as it will be a gr^at help to
s her in her every day education;
j more power to Angeline.
This has been the best winter
3 for mail service that we have had
jj in (he Territory, and we have been
3 in it for 16 years, altho the mail
3 carrier lost his team and the mail
- once for a few days, It all came
» in and we were glad that he re
f covered his team as well as all
the mail, and outside of that the
mail was right here on time and
in good condition, we are really
glad that the dog team mail is to
last at least another year as we do
not have any landing field here
for planes unless the ice, happens
to be good, this year it was all
right but sometimes It is not good
and then we do not have any
chance to send mall out, they can
drop the mall in coming, but can
not. pick up the outgoing mail,
and until we got a place for them
to land on the ground the dog
team mall service Is far better.
Keep It up, Mr. Curran.
Last week we had as a Visitor
from Shaktoolik, George Oulie,
who was on a trip to Golovin for
supplies, and Henry Ivanoff and
his * brother-in-law Mr. Brown,
the huBband of Emily Ivanoff who
is well known and has been a
successful teacher for some time
for the Office of Indian Affairs,
until a year ago last winter when
she went outside and was married
and returned to Shaktoolik with
her husband and has spent the
winter there, and we understand
she is the proud mother of a big
baby boy.
l his is the last trip of the over
land mail by dog team for the
winter, and R is dne in 'tomorrow
■with Willie on the handlebars,
rather, it is due In on Thursday,
- and we are sorry that the time
is up as we have had such good
service.
The natives of Elim held their
regular Easter services on Easter
o Sunday and they had a yrrogram
of ransie "besides the sermon, and
it was well attended, and Nassuk
and his son Daniel were present
as visitors on the .occasion from
Isaac’s Point.
It is quite a distance out to
open water In the hay, but tbe
natives have been going out and
getting some Oogrooks and some
seals, and as this is a pretty
hard time for the natives to get
white man’s gruib it is fortunate
that they can get their native
food, suid they are making the
best of U.
Our school closes (lent Friday,
with a closing day program, and
the children are doing fine with
their practicing, and we are plan
ning on a full hon9e. We aro fg .
the hopes that Misha Charles, one
of our mail carriers will be able
! to be here this time as he never
gets to see any of the entertain
! meats of the school in which he
has four children.
The snow Is getting very soft
in places in the daytime as the
sun is shinning so brightly
the day, but it freezes a little at
night.
Julius Pleasant and wife made <
a trip to Nome last week intend- 1
ing to return some time this week. <
George Pleasant made a trip to ]
Golovin today, intending to r
turn soon.
Charley and Henry Amik and
Harold James arrived from Koyuk

ovin, and w© understand that Har
