: Used To Bolster
Hospital Foundation
Members of the MMM Hospital i
Board had made a ^survey of the !
recently completed repairs to the I
hospital foundation, preceeding
theij- monthly meeting last Thurs-'
day.
One thousand five hundred
j sacks of cement have been used
j by Gillis Construction Co., as well
I as about 70 cubic yards of sand
j at an estimated cost of $25,000
| to stop the building from settling
further in various spots due to
the fact that part of the building
was on permafrost. A grouting
system was used as it was im
j possible to get under the building
any other way.
The cost of this repair is paid
by the Women’s Division of Chris
tian Service of the Board of Mis
sions of the Methodist Church.
The Nome hospital is one of more
| than 80 such institutions main
i tained by the organizations where
there is need for hospitals and
medical care but where economic
conditions do not warrant the
community maintaining the hos
pital themselves.

Nome 4-H Club
Meeting Tuesday
At School Gym
j
4-H Club work is a family cen
tered activity. Parents are invited
to attend the organizational meet
ing on Tuesday, Sept. 29 (that’s
tomorrow) at the 4 p.m. at the
school gym in order that they may
learn what 4-H is about, its pur
poses and objectives, and the
work required of members.
Parents can help the child se
lect a project he will like, that
he will have the ability to do,
and one for which the facilities
and materials are available. You
know your son or daughter better
than anyone else.
There are times when it will
help a great deal if some of the
club meetings and events can be
held in the homes, and parents
are the natural leaders and help
ers for any youth group. Too, you
can show your appreciation to the
local leaders by telling them whe
ther your boys and girls enjoy
their group. All youth leaders
need your appreciation and coop
eration.
Sometimes a place for the
youngster to work at home is
needed if he is to keep up, cer
tainly he must have a box or
place for his tools and records.
Alaska has over 1,300 members
of 4-H Clubs. This work is a part
of the Cooperative Extension Ser
vice of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture and the University of I
Alaska.
Photography is both fun and
an educational project for boys
and girls in the 4-H Club at
Teller. Former teachers Ken and
Althea Hughest started the proj
ect. The 14 members of the club
take pictures indoors and out
doors and use the picture taking j
as a winter project. In the spring
the club members plant gardens.
Acting 4-H leader for the chil
dren at Teller is Mrs. Norval Heg
land, wife of Rev. Hegland of the
Lutheran Mission there. The Tel
ler 4-H Club is just one of the
many similar projects carried on
in Alaska’s villagse by the Coop
erative Txtension Service.
Be at the gym Tuesday to meet
Mesdames Hoover, Lean, Kowal
cyzk, Amundsen and Gray and
learn more about 4-H in Nome.
