Partnership Will
Bid On
Bidding for Nome
Typifying one side of
civic spirit, the partner
ship agreement tween H.
E Reimer, H F Patterson,
Art Brown. Victer Lind,
and Ernest Atteberry, was
announced today, for the
purpose of arranging to
bid on construction of the
proposed new school build
ing at Nome, plans and
specification of which are
due to arrive here soon
from Juneau.
These persons are all car
penters and individual con
tractors. and have associated
themselves, it was stated, for
the purpose of attempting to
gain the bid, thereby bring
ing the money to Nome and
keeping the great majority of
it here—a move in competi
tion with any outside concern
which might make a bid.
Definite information as to
how many bidders there will
probably be, is lacking, but
it is believed that numerous
local business concerns will
be interested and possibly bid
on the project. This partner
ship it was further made
known, may possibly do their
complete ordering of mater
ial through local business es
tablishments, which is a fur
ther step toward keeping the
money at home.
It is understood they are in
a position to start work on
preparing their bid as soon as
the plans arrive at Nome,
which will be very shortly,
in order that the bids may be
sent to Juneau and the award
made before the fifteenth of
December.
It was also reported that
local business houses carry
ing various lines of building
material would possibly be in
a position to take care of
nearly all the requirements

Parma, Italy, Nov. 19, —It
is certain that Luciano Cod

that after a thunderstorm he
was clean shaven. He says the
lightning shaved him.
Here is his story:
Codeluppi, who lives in the
village of Fraore de San Pan
crazio, was leaning out of the
window watching the lightn
ing flicker across the fields
when a sudden flash seemed
to hit the house and threw
him back into the room. When
he put his hand to his face he
found that his mustache and
beard had disappeared.
Otherwise he was uninjur
ed.
