which left town Sunday evening, and
while attempting to haul a car over
a small patch of snow and Ice in the
vicinity of the IT. S. Road House on
the railroad, E. T. McIntyre broke
through the ice and suffered a frac
ture of the small bone of the right
leg just above the ankle. Mr. Mc
Intyre was brought to the local hos
pital for treatment Monday fore

Anvil Lodge No. 14'). F. & A. M.t
held i*s regular eoumunicftlon
Thursday evening. June 19th, at
the Masonic Temple. Nome, Alaska,
at which time the Third Degree was
conferred. The meeting was
marked by the preser.ee of a num
ber of out of town visitors, among |
them Mr. George Tills of the Hong j
Kong lodge.
It is planned to install an elec-'
trie SJrone at the liammon Tower
Plant to be sounded daily at a morn
h'g. noon and evening hour. The
time will be regulated and kept as
accurate jus possible thru the cour
tesy of the men at the local Radio
Station. A daily whistle of some
sort is needed and would soon be
come accepted as the “official” time
everywhere within hearing distance
of the sirene. This would elimi
nate our present system of each
shop. firm, hotel and individual try
ing to keep his own time with the
result that no. one knows within
half an hour of the correct time
and each believes his time correct
because he got it from So-and so.
It may take a little time to learn
to distinguish the sirene itself from
the prompt and correct imitation
which will no doubt be given by
the dogs. A second sirene will be
installed at Little Creek.
The activities of the Alaska Road
Commission this season will be
about as follows: In the Candle sec
tion the work will be in the line of
repairs and upkeep of the existing

dition will prevail in the Deering

I will consist of repairs to seasonal
damage and the upkeep of the pres
ent roads. The railroad plans are
to complete the road to Shelton.
Work in the Solomon section will
consist of repairs to seasonal dam
age. In the Casadepaga section it
is planned to buy the ties of the old
Council City & Solomon River rail
road and construct two miles of
corduroy road across the Ruby di
vide. In the winter the present
trails that need attention will be
gone over and it is planned to ex
tend the present permanent staked
trails into sections not already cov- j
ered by permanent staked trails. \
