i Mr. Clarence R. Meyers, of the
local Quartermaster Depot, plans
| to leave today on a furlough.
During his leave of absence, he
will proceed into the Interior,
where he hopes to catch a big
moose napping. It is Mr. Meyer’s
intention to leave from Mr. Tom
| Larson’s cabin, and from there
| he issues a warning to all moose
| and big game to be wary.

! The new Shelhorn residence
which is rapidly having the fin

j attractive place—especially at

up with the many lamps and

; cleverly arranged.

In honor of Master William
Lawrence, whose birthday occur
ed last week, his little Sunday
school classmates proposed to
give him a picnic out at the ra
dio station Saturday afternoon,
weather permitting. The little
folk planned to hike to the sta
tion, then spread their lun
ches, feast, then amuse them
selves with the playground equip
ment. After they played to their
heart’s content, they were to be
transported back to their homes
in the Radio Station school bus.

NOME HARBOR
| The word of dredging the Nome
! harbor is proceeding nicely with i
the high line bucket system. The j
sand bar which was at the end of j
the jetties was washed away by the j
current of the river and a good
depth of water has existed but it is j
expected that when a big south-j
easier hits the beach another bar!
will be formed, therefor, another;
mast was erected closer to the jet-j
: ties to handle that faze of the work
i when it is necessary. Soon the bars
upstream between the revetments
will be removed and navigation
made more safe.
