GREET THE NEW COMER
The other day a citizen of Nome asked us to urge the
people of Nome to carefully extend a hearty welcome to
each and every new-comer. The man, woman or child that
comes into Nome can be instantly won by the people here,
if every inhabitant will be alert in extending the small cour
tesies that make life sweet.
This is one field in which men, women and even the
children of Nome can help its growth. The new citizen who
moves here gives up friends somewhere. When he left
them he probably told them that he would never forget them
because no others could possibly take their places. He was
wrong but no neighbors will ever equal his lost neighbors
unless we try to make him feel at home.
There are few things that are sadder in life than the
scene of a family, for some cause or other, leaving their
home, turning their backs on friends of years, and seeking
life and living in a new field. When they move into a com
munity of inhospitable people, who seem indisposed to greet
them freely and heartily, the outlook cannot be bright.
Business troubles may worry but what hurts the new-com
ers most is the absence of friends.
Let every citizen of Nome bear this in mind. The next
time somebody moves here make a point to welcome that
family right away. Let them know that we want them,
wish to help them and are glad to have them here.
LOVE GONE; LIFE WORTHLESS
From New York comes the story of a young and beauti
ful actress, well on her way to fame, who jumped from a
hotel window because life lost its value for her when the
man to whom she had given her heart broke their engage
ment.
The death of this young woman raises the question of
values. Perhaps, if she had possessed the courage to wait,
everything might have been all right, or other interests may
have crowded the blasted romance from her consciousness.
The emotional intensity of her affection, however, apparent

Alaskan Jaunt Of
Lindberghs Will
Be Told In Rook
She Describes Flight to Japan With
Husband; Tells of Visit at Barrow
(By The Associated Press)
NEW YORK, June 22, —Mrs. An
ne Morrow Lindbergh is the author
of a book, to be published in the fall
about the air junket of the Lind
berghs to the far east, four years
ago.
Colonel and Mrs. Lindbergh left
New York in the summer of 1931,
flew first to the Morrow summer
home at North Haven, Maine, and
then, laying a course slightly west
of north, flew the great circle route
to Japan. They camped whereev
er night overtook them, and for
many days their only contact with
the outside world was by the radio.
Mrs. Lindbergh's book to be pub
lished by Harcourt, Brace & Com
pany, deals primarily with her per
sonal experiences—her work as the
radio operator and her part in the
flight preparations. She writes of
I
the hours of “uncertainty and dang
er, the friendly encounters along
the way, the thousands of unexpect
ed things that happened.”
There is the incident of a meet
ing with Eskimo duck hunters who
spoke English and the story of par
ties with the little group of whites
and natives at Point Barrow. They
stopped at Nome for nearly a week
neroute to Japan and then flew ov
er St. Lawrence Island enroute to
the Siberian coast.
“North to the Orient” is the title
of the book, which is to be about
50.000 words long. Maps for the
book have been prepared by Col
onel Lindbergh.
