Do You Want to Do
Something? Here’s
Your Clianee
Are you concerned about the
boys and girls of Nome? Do you
want to do something about the
vandalism of recent weeks?
Then get in touch with Mrs.
Jean Burand at the Extension Of
fice in the Mines Building, tele
phone Black 0. A roster is being i
prepared showing your name, the
organization with which you pre
fer to work (Scouts, 4-H. etc.', the
hours you can offer, what age,
group you most enjoy, and what |
skills you wish to share with
others.
Mrs. Burand would like to hear
from the boys and girls concern
ing the activities they prefer.
Some possibilities are: good
grooming, folk dancing, home im
provement, electrical work, auto
mobile mechanics.
Mind you, this is in no way a
promise to anyone of anything.
But, if we can form some clear
cut ideas, get some notion of the
leadership that is available, what
meeting places are open, we can
get on with organizing programs
to revitalize some of the existing
programs and find a way to use
fully channel the overflow of
youthful energy that is causing
the trouble.
The University of .Alaska Agri
cultural Extension Service chal
lenges the people of Nome to get
into action, see the problem, and
conquer the threat of misdirected
enthusiasm.
No one can answer all the
needs and questions, but by a
united effort we can enable con
structive action to replace de
structive criticism. Don’t just
complain — DO SOMETHING!
Call Mrs. Burand as a starter.
