LOCAL ITEMS
The local U. S. Coast Guard
Station at Nome wishes to
warn any persons, particular
ly children from attempting
to walk about or travel on the
slush ice on Bering Sea and
in the rivers adjacent to Nome
at the present time.
The ice is entirely too thin
and it is extremely danger
ous for children to play on.
This precaution it was stat
ed, would help remove poss
ible fatal accidents.
