HERE’S A FEW OF THE THINGS SPAGGETT WILL
SEE IN THE EAGLE HALL NEXT SATURDAY NIGHT
The long looked for athletic tour
nament will be some well contested
affair according to the activities in
the various training camps. The
basketball game hetween All Nome
and the Nome High School gives
promise of being one of the hardest
fought games ever staged at the
Eagle Hall. Captans of both teams
declare themselves in to win and
all of the playes indulge in nightly
practice. Those who claim to have
a thorough knowledge of the game—
and the various players— declare
BUTTER, EGGS
AND POTATOES
We have in ”tock the same grade
of Butter, Eggs and Potatoes that
the other stores carry and we will
sell them at the same price or less
in some cases. But, in addition to
the common grades we have exerted
our utmost to be able to offer
something better, not necessarly
cheaper. Our effort was product
ive of the following result.
GUTTER
Our Alberta pickled butter is
especially churned for us and Is
made from clean, pure and whole
some pasteurized cream. In fact
other buyers must wait and go
without until our orders are filled.
The Consolidated Creamery Co.,
mt Ellenshurg Washington, is a co
operative institution of the farmers
pf that vicinity who have success
folly marketed their products in
this way for Neveral years and in
this manner they have been able to
give the pnblic as direct as p ossible
the best butter fresh and nnmixed
at a better profit to themselves and
less to the consumer. Our price
per 2 pound brick $1.35.
EGGS
Our Ranch Eggs are all guar
anted to be not over a week old
when shipped last fall. Per dozen
#0 cents.
POTATOES
Our potatoes that we are now
offering are the very latest YAKI
MA BURBANKS the Potatoes that
made the N-P.R.R.Co. Uiners fam
ous for their big Potato Bake. Full
weight cratee, per crate $5.50.

that the N. H. S. team will emerge
from the conflict with the All Nome
scalps dangling at their belts. Lov
ers of the indoor baseball game will
not be dsappointed in the Sour
dough—Fort Davis game. Both of
these teams have strong aggrega
tions and a close game should re
sult. The betting is mostly in favor
of the soldier boys whose batteries
should win them the game. How
ever we may have the wrong
dope as the Nome team state they
are out to win and will give the
vistors a tough battle for the
honors.
As published last week the line-up
for the various events will be the
same and judging from the program
the entertainment will be the best
presented in that line for many
years.
All teams will practice at the
Eagle Hall tonight. Basketball from
7 to 8, Fort Davis Baseball team
from 8 to 9, and the Nome Baseball
team from 9 to 10. Full attend
