Serpentine Hot
Springs is Brot
Attention C of C
The regular meeting of tne
Boar ! of Directors of the North
western Alaska Chamber of Com
merce met at Cavey’s Cafe, for
noon luncheon. Nov. 8.
Minutes of the luncheon meet
ing of November 1 and of the
Board of October 25 were read
and approved.
Mr. Harvey Grant, a guest be
ing present at the meeting waSj
called upon by President Misti.\
Mr. Grant emphasized strongly
the necessity of some action to,
be taken to make available the
facilities of the Serpentine Hot
Springs. He called attention to
the board at length as to the pos
sibilities and medicinal values
of the waters of the Springs.
What a boon it would be if pro
per commodious buildings could
be erected. The people of North
western Alaska could take ad
vantage of the facilities and in
stead of going outside as usual
seeking health, that such a
health center would fill the nec-!
essity and a good many people
would find health and enjoyment'
in our own district. After a gen
eral discussion the subject was
referred to the Health Board, Mr.
Harry Hagen being chairman of
that Committee. It was suggest
ed that an attempt should be
made by the Board to obtain one I
gallon of water from the upper j
spring and another gallon from1
the lower springs to bring it to j
Nome to be re-shipped to the |
University of Alaska for analyz
ation. It was also suggested that:
a place for the natives be also j
established, there being two sep-1
araite springs at close proximity j
to each other, as there is ample
room for two buildings to be er
ected and bath houses according
ly. Mr. Grant volunteered the in
formation that a good many have
offered to contribute towards
establishing the said buildings.
He also stated that the plan vol
unteered could be that the per
sons so contributing could take
out their contribution in services!
at the springs. He stated that he:
thought that a young couple
could be selected after the es
tablishing of the buildings to
run the institution.
Communications from the
Chamber of Commerce of the
United States enclosing circul
ars, application blanks and state
ment of facts in reiation to the
National Health Conservation l
Board were received. After dis-!
cussion and consideration the!
same was referred to the Health
Committee with the suggestion |
that they in turn re-submit all |
the data received to the Nome
Health Council.
On the request of the Nome1
Health Council for the Chamber;
of Commerce to select someone
to represenrt the Chamber of Com j
merce on the Nome Health Coun
cil, Mr. Harry Hagen, Chairman
of the Health Committee was
unanimously elected to represent
the Board on the Nome Health
Council.
