SEASON OF UNREST
 BEGINS NEXT WEEK

The last lap in the race of the closed seasons time is near at hand. When the next mail from the outside arrives next Thursday, and after it Is distri- buted, the final lap will be commenced From then on until the Corwin arrives will prevail the days of unrest. With out any letter communication with the outside world many will grow peevish and restless. And then when the Cor win is due to arrive, and she does not show up in the offing, there will come another fit of melancholy. But it is to be expected. It Is so every year and it is part of life in Nome. sHf4 ,J

 The ladies didn't believe in doing things by halves and dancing contin- ued until long after midnight, thus bringing to close a successful season of entertainments by the Miners Home Club. weher every week during the closed season an entertainment is giv- en. of whist. lectures Q other instruc- tive social past time is induIged in.

Nome has developed some first class ski artists since first the sport was introduced in this coun- try and there is no reason why an Alaskan should not set a new worlds record for the fast mile.

"F" PETERSON'S
 MACHINE FLIES

Have you ever stopped to consider what 1t would mean to Nome and AL aska if Henry Peterson, the local avia- for. demonstrated to the public that his flying machine was practical and that u could sail through the air under all conditions.
 Firstly. it would mean new manner Of transportation between the territory and the states. One could travel to Nome via the airship route--no stops ar no delays-a through ticket takes you to your destination in twenty hours. Bring your own lunch.
 Secondly. we could receive a daily mail. Postmen would deliver letters in Nome the same day they were writ ten in the states. Just think, Mir. Gro ceryman, You could write an order and send it to Portland. Frisco or Se- attle one day and the next you would have the goods. Then we would not have to 20 hungry for bacon an or cream. either.
 Thirdly, dredging men would prosper. They could work up until their prop erty was frozen so tight that it couldn't be opened. Then they would buy a
The Nome daily nugget., 1911-05-05

round trip ticket on the airship line and sail away. The next day they would be selling Seattleites stock in the greatest dredging proposition on earth"
 Lastly, the women would rejoice. Why? Because they would be enabled to keep in touch with the very latest fashions. Should a new hobble or harem skirt be invented they would secure one just as soon as would the ladies in the states. Then they could go calling. Mrs. Jones of Nome would say to Mrs. Smith of the Iditarod :; Let's take a run down to Seattle and visit Ms. Brown" They would spend the afternoon on Queen Anne hill with Mrs. Brown and when 1t came time to
 goMrs. Jones of Nome would say 10 Mrs. Smith of the Iditarod, wen have to hurry now if we want to get home in time Cor dinner. Mir Peterson's next airship sails In ten minutes"
 And so it would go. Here's hoping that Mir. Peterson makes all of these things possible.
