LOCAL NEWS
Pilot Hans Mirow of the Mirow
Air Service is scheduled for a hop
to Fairbanks with passengers and
pail as soon as weather will permit
The Polarites have been invited
to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Whaley for their regular meeting
this evening, instead of meeting at
the native school gymnasium.
The Pacific Alaska Airways mail
plane which ordinarily takes off on
Mondays with the mail postponed
the trip until Wednesday. It is not
known definitely if the plane left
Fairbanks this morning or not.
Pilot Lynn of the Northern Air
Transport is enroute to Nome with
Mrs. F. M. Ayre and Joe Mullins as
passengers, and a capacity load of
fresh goods and express. He was
at Ruby this morning, waiting for a
break in the snowy weather before
coming on through. As soon as the
Fairbanks plane arrives, Pilot Ches
ter Brown of the NAT is scheduled
to hop off for Candle, and the north.
Mr. and Mrs! Nels Swanberg Sr.,
announced the engagement of their
daughter Grace to Mr. Axel Edman.
The announcement took place at
the home of the young ladies par
ents Christmas Eve at an engage
ment dinner.
Miss Grace and Axel Edman are
two of Nome’s very well known
young people, and their many
friends are offering pleasurable con
gratulations. The date for the wed
ding has not yet been set but will
probably occur in the near future.
Many well-wishes for both of them.
NO BARN DANCE
Due to difficulties arising at the
last moment, and no suitable place
in which to give The Barn Dance
on New Year’s Eve, the Arctic Bro
therhood will not .give their annual
affair in 1934.
Arctic Chief, Andrew Sather
Now that Christmas is over, every
one is turning their eyes toward the
New Year. Nome experienced a
very nice Christmas. Of special in
terest were the Carol Singers, who
were taken all over town Xmas Eve
night, by Albin Poison, on a sliegh.
They sang many beautiful carols and
songs about Christmas. All who
heard them, and there were a great
many, were very appreciative of the
music and hope that it is continued
again next year. Other delightful
affairs took place over Christmas,
and all in all, it is believed, that it
was observed with the greatest spir
it and consideration.
Hammon Co. Has
Separate Fighting
Equipment Fire
The Hammon Consolidated Gold
Fields, which installed a separate
fire fighting unit sometime ago,
makes daily tests of their equip
ment at noon each day. A Ford V-8
motor is connected with a two stage
Morane pump and supplies water
for various hose connections thru
out their office and apartment build
ing.
The pump draws the water from
a huge 7,500 gallon tank and will
supply two nozzles for almost an
hour’s steady run. As a measure of
fire protection this is one of the
most efficient in Nome today, most
of the other large buildings being
equipped with only portable chem
ical fire extinguishers.
A report that a well had been
sunk in the rear of the Hammon
building many years ago, which
supplied clear, spring water, proved
to be false, upon investigating by
having one of the Hammon drills
sink a hole about 75 feet to bedrock
and into it, for seven or eight feet.
A CORRECTION
In the liner advertisement regard
ing information concerning the party
or parties who robbed the Lichten
berg Store, the reward was print
ed at “$1,000.” It should have been
$100.00, and that is all that will be
paid, if such information is forth
coming.
