Contractor Uncovers
Old Vaults On Front St.
- Part of pre-fire Nome has been
uncovered by Green Construction
Co. in their preparatory work for
Front Street paving. The vault
foundation of the old U.S. Com
missioner’s office, which was on
the corner of Front and Stead
man, was uncovered last week. It
is now in the middle of Front
Street. Another vault foundation
was uncovered this morning in
the street in front of the Nomer
ama Theater.
This vault is believed to have
been from the old Cape Nome
Bank on the site later occupied
by the Nevada Saloon. The orig
inal building and bank are re
ported to have been owned by a
Mr. Hodge.
After the fire of 1934 property
owners on the north side of Front
Street gave the city part of their
lots to widen Front Street and
also to move the south side 20
feet away from Bering Sea.

Clothing -- Make It
Over, Remodel It,
Repair It . . .
Mrs. Jean K. Burand, District
Home Demonstration Agent for
the University of Alaska Exten
sion Service, announces a clothing
workshop in ways of making-over,
remodeling and repairing used
clothing. This workshop will be
held at the Lavinia Wallace Young
Recreation Hall on July 14, 15 and
16, from 2 to 4 o’clock in the af
ternoons. That is Tuesday, Wed
nesday and Thursday, from 2 to
4 p.m. If the street is torn up,
please use the rear entrance.
Bring your problem garments to
the workshop where plans can be
made for the needed changes.
Clothing which fits properly pays
dividends in comfort, appearance
and service. Stop, look and think
before you throw it away. The
“make-over” task may be rela
tively simple, especially if the un
suitable garment is too large, but
wondrous things can be wrought
from clothing that is too small for
the intended wearer, especially if
the material is good. A great deal
can be done with knit wear, as
well as with leather — for instance
child’s sleepers from Dad’s warm
underwear.
Fit is fundamental to service
and comfort as well as to fashion,
so a portion of each session will
be devoted to “measuring to fit,”
to treatment of grain of fabric and
discussion of the problems most
vexing to home sewers.
You will derive a great deal of
satisfaction from having trans
formed a worn, stained, stale gar
ment into an attractive, style
right, well-fitting addition to the
family wardrobe. Such changes
can cost little or much in terms
of money, time and skill — but
the return in comfort and good ap
pearance is immeasurable.
There will be no charge, and no
roll will be taken. Anyone is wel
come to attend any one or all of
the sessions.
