Pioneers Plan
Roof (ft Helen
Wednesday evening at Odd
Fellows Hall, Pioneer Igloo No.
1 met with a large attendance
and after disposing of routine
business nominated the follow
ing officers for the coming year:
President, Chas. Code.
1st Vice President, Eugene Kell
2nd Vice President M. J. Walsh
Secretary, Dave Gray
Treasurer, Tolbert Scott
Chaplain, Carl Lindell
Sgt. at Arms J. J. O’Leary
.Door Keeper, Max Rappe
Trustees, Gus Johnson, Garnet
Martin.
Election of officers will take
place at the next meeting Dec.
7th with installation at the first
meeting in January.
Considerable discussion was
held concerning the activities of
the local Health Council, also re
garding tentative resolutions to
be submitted to this body later
on. Mi'. A. Polet was selected to
represent the Igloo on this board.
The annual collection for the
Pioneer Home Xmas fund was
taken and a considerable sum
raised from the members pres
ent. In order to allow the com
munity to contribute to this:
worthy fund a committee con
sisting of J. J. O’Leary, Carl
Lindell and John Halvorson was
appoint I to solicit further
amounts.
This i d that is gotten togeth
er each ear by Pioneer Igloo
No. 1 g > s directly to the inmat
es of ti Pioneer Home at Sitka.
Every t ,n in the Territory part
icipate i the raising of this
fund. ri ore is no provision ini
the Territorial Statutes for pro
viding these old timers with]
spending money. They are total-*
ly dependent upon this fund,
raised once a year, for the few
dimes that will be pro-rated to
them at Christmas time.
In the past Nome has always
more than done her share—last ■
year our contribution was second
to that of Juneau the largest city,
in the Territory. The sum con
tributed need not be large—any
small amount that can be spared
is most acceptable. When one
stops to think of the contribu
tions to the Territory and indir
ectly to ourselves, on the part of
most of these Alaska Pioneers
now waiting for the last journey
into the great unknown, it should
not be difficult for anyone to
contribute a little something
with which to bring a bit of joy
and happines into their declining
years, which for many of them
can be measured in months and
days.
Saturday, Dec. 17th was set as
the day for the Igloo’s Annual ■
Roof Garden, and the place sel
ected was the High School Audit

A meeting will be held at 2
| p.m. Sunday, Nov. 20th at the
City Hall of those interested in
Christmas Tree and Xmas cheer
activity, according to an an
nouncement made today by A.
M. Hartford, chairman oif last
year’s activities.
Thanksgiving Day is just
around the corner, as is evidenc
ed by several new Thanksgiving
ads appearing in today’s issue.
Others will appear in Monday’s
and Wednesday’s issues. From
now until Xmas is the time -for
business concerns to offer special
inducements and invite the pub
lic into their stores and places
of business. The holiday season
is just commencing here, while
in the States it has been discov
ered that two, and even three
months are now needed to care
for the buying public’s necessit
ies. It stretches over a longer per
iod, thus giving the regular em
ployees more opportunity to dis
play and wait on the public, and
doing away with a great deal of
last minute purchasing.
The placing of the Lomen
Lighterage Company’s tugs and
barges in winter quarters has
just been completed under the
able superintendency of Jack
Anderson, and a crew of skill
ed workmen. Mr. Anderson is
planning on leaving soon to
spend part of the winter with his
family in the States.
The card party and dance to be
given Saturday night at Odd Fel
lows Hall, is one of many plan
ned for the winter season, by the
Rebekahs and Odd Fellows build
ing association. Cards will com
mence at 9 pm and dancing at 11
p.m. General admission will be
50 cents and each ticket bears a
coupon which entitles the owner
to a chance at the door prize, a
turkey. Refreshments will also
be served for the nominal charge
of 25 cents.
