The Nome City Council held a
special meeting this morning
with Mr. Peterman regarding
minor changes and additional
features which were suggested
to be incorporated into the build
ing at this time. It was decided
not to extend the balcony on the
west end to enable additional
seating space for spectators.
They also agreed to extend the
boiler house and connect it dir
ectly w’ith the main school build
ing, thereby giving space for a
workshop, and other necessary
room for equipment.
ANNUAL PICNIC
The annual picnic of the Fed
erated Church School held Wed
nesday was a huge success.
Cars left the chuch at 10 o’
clock. About one hundred and
twenty including young and old
were present, enjoying a delicious
lunch in the glorious weather at
noon-time.
Some of the old people enjoy
ed sitting on the sand visiting,
while the young people and
children of course took to the
water.
Baseball was played, and one
young man sought a fortune by
panning for gold. Others roamed
the tundra looking for berries.
The church wishes to thank
W. E. H. Cremer who opened his
cabin to the group, made fires on
the meach and in various ways
showed his sourdough hospital
ity.
