New Years Eve
Plans Are Made
Known to Public*
Now that the Xmas holi
day is past, all eyes arej
now being turned to the
big New Year’s Eve cele
bration in Nome. Arrange
ments are well under way
by the management of the
Pioneer Hall, to provide
one of the gayest and enter
taining New Year’s Eve
Barn Dances of recent
years. The dance will take
place Tuesday night, Dec.
31, at the Pioneer Hall,
which will be decorated in
style. Admission will be
adults $1.00 each, and a
snappy dance orchestra has
been engaged to furnish the
dance music, including sev
eral old time ballads and
dance hits, so popuar amo
ng the residents of Nome,
and some of the latest hits
from the states.
Noise makers, serpentine,
balloons, etc., are to be fur
nished free and every ef
fort is being bent toward
providing a real, rip-snort
ing New Year’s Eve.
One of the conditions will
be that everyone appear in
costume —hicks, farmers,
farmer maids, milk-men
and farmer-helpers, are ex
pected to be present that
evening. No neckties will
be permitted and those ap
pearing with that adorn
ment will be politely but
firmly disconnected from
those appendages. The peo
ple of Nome have long been
accustomed to the Big Barn
Dance, and there is little
doubt that the crowd of
merry makers will include
just about every sourdough
and cheechacco in town.'
Make your plans now to
attend this big affair next
Tuesday evening, is the an
nouncement now being
broadcasted everywhere in
Nome. Parties of 2, 3, 4,
5,—even up to 10 or 20.will
find their New Year’s Eve
celebration incomplete if
they do not appear that
evening and help usher out
the old and in with the
New Year.
All aboard, for points just
north of Nome ! Tomorrow
beginning at 11 a.m. Rein
deer rides to the Bessie
Mine, where pictures will
be taken, says James Bran
don, who is in charge of the
reindeer. He also states
that anyone desiring trips
to Dexter Roadhouse, a rea
sonable charge will be
made for two or more per
sons.
