FAIR NOTES
The Odd Fellows Building us
ed this year to house the North
western Alaska Fair, is beginning
to assume all of the aspects of
a real Fair Building. All exhibi
tion booths have been installed
upstairs and down, decorators
are in process of dressing them
up in variagated colors of the
spectrum, using crepe paper as
the medium of artistic express
ion.
Judging by the booths already
decorated the Fair Bldg, will be
a symphony of color skillfully
blended, and a rare treat to the
aesthetic and perceptive senses.
Of genuine interest to all Lov
ers of good entertainment is the
announcement that Mrs. Neva
Whaley has consented to act as
chairman of the entertainment
committee for Fair Week.
Mrs. Whaley as Neva Brown
field of Seattle, was for a num
ber of years a national swimming
champion, and a dancer and vaud
eville artist of considerable pro
minence.
Since coming to Nome a num
ber <xf years ago as Mrs. Frank
Whaley, Neva has pursued as an
avocation, the instruction of
Nome’s youth in the art of ter
pesichore. putting on many ama
teur entertainments over the
years for the town’s enjoyment.
•
The Art Department of this
year’s Fair is eliciting much en
thusiasm, and contributions to
ward this popular division of the
Fair, will undoubtedly cause the
exhibit to be one of great inter
est to everyone. Mrs. J. H. S. Mor
ison is superintendent of this
Division and anyone wishing to
participate in this exhibit may do
so by gettng in touch with her.
Ichthyological lore, and pisca
tonal display, will not as we had
hoped, be represented by a visual
exhibit of specimens extracted
from our local streams by the
cunning fly or otherwise disguis
ed fish hook. The competition for
prizes in this department will be
adjudged on the basis of sub
mitted photographs, affidavits and
what have you—and the data and
stories better be good. Chas. H.
Code is superintendent of this
Division, and would be pleased
to have our numerous addicts of
the rod and reel, place on dis
play at his booth, the various
fishing accoutrements of which
the individual Isaak Waltonite
is usually so proud. Rule number
one among this cult, is a firm
belief in the superiority of his
own equipment against the field.
This will afford the opportunity
for settling this mooted question
with the public as the judge.
Parade Chairman O. S. Weav
er wishes to announce through
this column that the Grand Out
\ door Parade is definiteyl sched
uled for Thursday 2:00 p.m, Oct
ober 20th. He bespeaks the en
