Jefferies who arrived in Nome
Saturday to become the new com

The Major said: “I am not go
ing to say much, because 1 can’t.
1 I am sort of like the people back
j in the hills down in our section
in Georgia. They just don’t know
j —wether they do know or don’t
know that is all they will say —
they just don’t know. I am going
to be about like that. The War
Department and the ADC have
to do the talking.
The Major has been on duty
about two years as a civilian sol
dier. He said he expected to en
joy his stay in Alaska and that

| Arctic Club Carnival
—
Saturday night the Arctic Club
will unfold Nome’s Annual Car
nival. Let u.s all come and greet
the promise of spring with novel
ty acts, many attractive games,
dancing, fun, laughter and beauti
ful women! For what is spring
to Nome without a Queen? We
have lots of gorgeous girls here
and Saturday n:ght one of them
will become Nome’s “Queen of j
the Trail.” This year we are anti
“Nome Queen” and anti “Queen
of Alaska.” We are just pro “Alot
of Fun”; so we are going to pop
ularly elect our queen with fun
i for fun. We promise her lots of
good laughter, joy and a nice
I trophy. Do you want to know how'
j to make your gal queen? Well,
! here is how. With each admission
I ticket (one buck for us and ten
I cents for Uncle Sam) go 100
' Queen Votes; the soldier boys
| get 50 Queen Votes (fifty cents
plus five cents admission); and
I the little brothers and sisters can
'< have 50 Queen Votes with their
admission ticket (another 50 with
>
5 for tax). Tucked around as
prizes in the various booths,
a’ong with candy, kewpie dolls,1
cigars, etc., will be prizes of
100, 200 and maybe 300 Queen
Votes. All just to add fun and
gaiety to the choosing of a
Queen.
What about Rules? (Got to
have rules).
1. Open to everyone, all sizes,/
shapes and ages admitted, with
out regard to previous condition I
of servitude. Come on you mar
rid gals and show the youngsters
that a queen can have a husband
and still be a mighty nice queen.
2. At 10:30 votes will be count
ed and all except the 5 leaders
eliminated. Get your votes in
early for your favorite gal. No |
“score” will be announced, just
the “5 leaders.” And the leader |
will wear a cape of distinction j
until—
3. 11:00 p.m., when the votes j
will be counted again and the
“4 highest” left in the race. The
cape will shift to the leader; then
at
4. 11:30 p.m. another count —
another gal eliminated and, with
the cape on the leader, three
gals will speed toward—
5. Midnight! The final count
and a new Queen!
Now who are you going to |
vote for? Let’s see. Connie Ma- ’
zen is a possibility; then there is;
Judie Bookman; JnAnn Johan
sen. Kay Walsh and, by gosh her j
sister, Norcenl The McLean gals,
Marjorie and Elizabeth, are like
ly candidates; and right up there
are Marianne Mish. Jane Nelson, j
Florence Ulrickson, Lillian Mar- j
tin, and—and—why. Jane Smith,
Francis Waldheim, Mary Roell—.
That’s a dizzy list. Maybe it
would be easier to pick Mae
Walton, or Leone Creamer or
Freda Erfle. Ah! we have it!
Rita Tavis! Betty Harney1?
Shucks, how about Ellen Hop
kins, Betty Krohlow, Mildred
Lee, Geraldine Wuorinen—this is
too much. Guy, let’s you and I
vote for Nina!
