COMMUNITY XMAS IN NOME
The annual Community Xnrs Tre > Cel b”ation
in Name takes place today. This afternoon Santa Claus
cam: to town and gave all the youngsters a big thrill.
Following his arrival a short sports program for the
entertainment and excitement of townspeople took
p ace, and this evening a program will be held at the
new school auditorium.
Since its inception about ten years ago, Nome’s
C mmunitv Xmas celebration has become an establish
ed custom. During the past two years, following the
fire of 19.14 in Nome, while the city was without an aud
itorium sufficiently large to accomodate the entire pop
ulation, separate programs for the Eskimos and the
white people took place in two of the churches—The
Federated and Native. This year Nome is more for
tunate in having at its disposal a brand new school
building constructed during the summer, with a large
auditorium, though much credit is due the churches
in materially assisting in keeping alive, this admirable
function.
A completely equipped stage, another fine attribute
to the city, will really return much of the glory and
style which Nome enjoyed when the city possessed sev
eral large halls.
To those who have worked this year to put over
the 1936 Community Xmas, and to the many who are
taking part in the various features of the program,
much credit is due. The spirit behind the affair is
one in which no city can excell Nome, for Nomeites
have that peculiar feeling and attachment for neigh
borliness. which becomes apparent at the slightest pro
vocation. And so we say: “On Earth, Peace, Goodwill
Toward Men”.
