J Says one large tractor fleet owner.
i HOW MUCH CAN YOU AFFOUD TO WASTE? ft
V Gold — probably unnoticed — is passing OVER your screens and rillles — IS Jv
BEING WASTED — if you are using ordinary 'dozer tractors. Here’s why! Grease
leaks out from rollers and idlers on common truck wheel assemblies. These
drippings attach themselves to numerous gold particles in the pit and are slushed zs
around until small, pebble-like balls are formed. You know the rest—that gold 22
goes over the riffles. fa
Stop this needless waste. Use the NEW Allis-Chalmers tractors with the ft
W POSITIVE-SEAL truck wheel assemblies. The OIL STAYS IN because IT’S M
ft SEALED IN! And you CHANGE IT ONLY ONCE IN 200 HOURS. ft
y.j Consider your savings — not only in gold gained — but in slashed lubrication
costs — in 48 extra productive hours every 1,000 — in greaser’s wages. C

$100 III Gold Is
Holiday Drawing
The Holiday Gift Drawing of
the Nome Drug Store of $100 in
. gold has a distinctly northern
t flavor.
( In 1915, if this writers memory
j is correct, a similar drawing was
. held. A $100 bar of retorted gold
. was then offered. This was at the
much loved Dr. Hill’s Pharmacy
. which was under the same man
, I agement as the present Nome
, Drug Store and the lucky cus
j tomer was a waitress in one of
’ | the restaurants of Nome whose
I! name is now forgotten.
I The possession of retorted gold
. is now illegal but the possession
of unretorted gold — gold dust!
1 and nuggets—according to author;
itics in these matters is permis- \
: sable.
This gold offered by the Nome!
' Drug Store Holiday Drawing
was mined by the Lee Brothers
; in the Solomon District and was |
taken from ground that was sup
posed to have been completely!
worked out—so much for the ro- J
mance of gold.
Rules of the drawing: Business'
concerns, Corporations, Federal
and Municipal offices and employ;
ees of the Nome Drug Store are
not eligible to the drawing; the
fairness of these provisions are
apparent to all.
One ticket- will be given with 1
each dollar cash purchase or pay
ment on account and the draw
ing will be Jan. 15, 1940 at 8
pm.
The Federated Drama Club
met Thursday evening at the |

Federated Church. “A Light On
Beacon Hill” is the drama being
presented, and is now being dir
ected by Shirlie Forrester. A few
