Pioneers To Give Away
Two Big Nuggets At
Roof Garden Dec. 12th
Gold, Gold, rare and precious.
It has been truly said there is no
substitute for gold. From the days
of King Solomon down to the
present, gold has been sought and
hoarded as no other metal or min
eral. Men have endured untold
hardships and even given their
lives in quest of it.
Alaska came into prominence as
a result of the discovery of gold.
Our own City of Nome was born
in the gold rush days more than
50 years ago and 'the search and
adventure still continues and will,
because of man’s desire to possess
gold.
For years past the Pioneers have
given away gold nuggets at their
annual Roof Garden. This year
they are offering two huge, beau
tiful specimens, so rare and pre
cious, that whoever should be the
recipient, will perhaps be the
proud possessor of the last large
gold nuggets to be found in this
section of Alaska.
Where were these nuggets
mined? Well, that’s the miner’s
secret. You might ask Tolbert
Scott. Even he might not tell you.
But it will be announced at the
Roof Garden when they will be
given away—on the night of Dec.
12, 1953.
Sgl. and Mrs. John Jones of the
ACS who have made many
friends during their stay in Nome,
departed for Seattle yesterday
j where they are now assigned.
NOTICE
Pioneer Roof Garden Show will
have a general rehearsal al 8 p.m.
