Councilmen Get
Preview Look at
$1,000 Nugget
Members of the Nome City
Council got a preview Monday
night of a gold nugget which has
been acquired by the Pioneers of
Alaska for their 50th anniversary
and which will be given away at
the Pioneer Roof Garden in De
cember.
The mammoth nugget which
! the Pioneers value at $1,000 was
the largest most of the council
had ever seen—a real handful of
natural gold.
An interesting history of the
nugget will be revealed later by
the Pioneers, it was reported.
In the absence of the mayor,
Councilman A. Bohrer presided
at v the meeting.
School Repairs Needed
Thru correspondence it was re
vealed that the beams of the new
school have not been repaired by
the construction engineer and, un
less the job is completed, heavy
snow might collapse that part of
j the school. The error was made
j by the engineer in the original ,
i plans.
Footbridge to Sandspit
The U. S. District Engineers
have reported the footbridge to
the Sandspit to be sound, but cau
tioned the city it might be wise to
post a sign that the city was not
responsible for those using the
bridge. This bridge was originally
constructed by the U.S. Air Force
while they were occupying the
area.
The N.C. machinery shop has
requested a street light in their
area.
A young .father was pushing a
baby carriage in which an infant
was screaming. The father kept
. murmuring, “Easy now, Donald.
Keep calm, Donald. Steady, boy.
It’s all right, Donald.”
A mother passing by paused to
say, “You certainly know how to
talk to an upset child—quietly
and gently.” Then, leaning over
the carriage, she said, “What
seems to be the trouble, Donald?”
“Oh, no,” said the father. “He’s
' Henry. I’m Donald.
