Fair Notes
"
The most complimentary com
ment yet heard on the efforts of
; the Fair Association is contained
in a post card recently received
from Mrs. Vincent Widney. It
seems that the Widneys visited
the San Francisco Fair this sum
mer. Nine-year-old Jimmy sur
veyed the spectacular panorama
of Treasure Island with a critic
al eye. Finally he turned to his
mother and said: “I don’t think
this is so much. T thought it
would be like the Nome Fair.”
The Superintendents met w'ith
the Board of Directors last Fri
day evening for a round-table
discussion of departmental prob
lems. Allotment of display space
soliciting of exhibits, and ar
rangement and management of
the various booths and displays
were the main topics considered.
“There is still time enough to
prepare that can of blueberries,
I salmon berries, or cranberries
| that you are planning to exhibit
l at the Fair. Also, it is not too late
to plan on entering your canned
Alaska vegetables such as cab
! bage, carrots, rhubarb, cauliflow
er and other vegetables. While
planning on the above, don’t for
get reindeer meat and salmon
and other fish.” So says Mrs. S.
David Mazen. Superintendent of
the Household Economics Depart
ment, who hopes for a goodly ar
ray of canned goods for her dis
play this year in addition to the
staple exhibits of cake, pie, and
bread. Call Mrs. Mazen for de
tails on entering exhibits or the
awarding of prizes.
Perhaps Nome is still too
young a community to have a
museum. However, for three
days in the year the Antique
and Curio booth, with its dis
plays of old weapons, primitive
Eskimo gear, papers, documents,
and pictures of the Stampede
days, affords us an opportunity
to prowl about in our town’s
lurid past.
Mrs. Fred Roberts, who is high
ly enthusiastic and anxious for
the success of her booth, has vol
unteered to pick up the exhibits
with her car. The Fair Associa
tion and the department super
intendent are responsible for the
safe care of the exhibits while
they are on display, so you need
feel no qualms about loaning
your choice curios.
So dust off the Siberian mus
ket. bring the old Eskimo cook
ing pot down from the attic, and
ransack the album for that pic
ture of Nome' 1st Fourth of July
celebration, then get in touch
with Mrs. Roberts.

CANNED SALMON EXPORTS
SLUMP SEVEN MILLION
Canned salmon export figures
“took a beating" for August of
this year, as compared with Last
year according to the August com
; pilation of outbound shipments
j of Alaska, released by Collector
| of Customs J. J. Connors.
Last year, canned salmon ex
port value exceeded $21.000.000.
This year, the figure is over sev
en million dollars short of last
year’s total.
Fresh salmon exports are also
down, but other exports held up
favorably.
Figures as released for August
j 1939, total $18,639,810. as com
pared with $25,058,000 last year
i in August.
SLEEPS BETWEEN RAILS
NEW YORK—Tired of waiting
for a subway train, after a night
spent in Brooklyn, a sailor. Sea
man Paul W. Worsnau, 22. low
ered himself from the station
platform and started to walk
down the track. After walking a
short distance, however, he be
came fatigued and went to sleep
in a depression between the rails.
At least two trains zipped over
him before he was noticed and
awakened, unhurt.

I Friend to Alaska's Children
ALASKA'S CHILDREN ARE LUCKY . . . all can attend schools noted
for their high educational standards. Flic Canned Salmon Industry has a
hand in this. It pays the largest proportion of territorial tax revenues —
and much of this income is used to operate your school system. Thus the
Salmon Industry helps to give your children a good start in life.
