already met with commendation
and approval by the children at
tending school as well as by the
citizens in general.
This improvement was made
possible by the energetic work
ot the local Home Arts Club.
Last winter the club raised en
ough funds to gravel a consider
able portion of the grounds east
of the building, and with the as
sistance of the School Board and
the City Council, all the old ma
chinery on the playfield was

unsanitary drain on the lot cover

This in only a beginning of the
improvements the Home Arts
Club has planned and with the
cooperation of the people of
Nome, we will in the near future
have a playfield for the young
sters of which we can be proud.
Conclusion for Kougarok Article
