CARNIVAL MOVEMENT
 UNDER WAY

The movement toward holding a Midnight Sun carnival in the interest of public playground
 for the children is now fairly under way and present lndica- tons point to a full development of the idea. A meeting of the executive council was held at the offices of Dr. Heimlich yesterday with the doctor presiding and Mrs. 0. D. Cochran acting as recording secretary. It was de cided to hold the carnival on the day usually known as Children s day, which falls on the third Sat urday in July, in this case July IS. The following committees were appointed to handle the af- fair: Advertising and printing, Mrs, Phil Ernst; floats and po- lice, Mrs. Dr. Eromm finance and badges, Mrs. Polet; dance, flags and bunting, Mrs. o. D. Cochran; booths, Mrs. Crowley i; entertainment, Mrs. Dick Morris. The various committees were empowered to appoint such sub committees as shall be necessary. As pr. Heimlich had no appre- ciablc work to do, the ladies assigned him the task of securing the queen of the carnival. The meeting adjourned until June 8. The ladies have taken hold of the project with great spirit and will endeavor to make the occasion one of the most memorable in the annals of Nome.

were also carried away.
 Although no one was injured or lost in Council, fears are eX- pressed for the safety of persons
 living near the mouth of the river. Owing to the wide sweep of the flood 1t is believed that the native settlement and also the cabins of Joe Hardy and Billy Carvel have been swept out of existence by the great rush oi ice and water. Nothing has been heard from the district, which is twelve miles below Council and the extent of the damage, if any occurred, is not known. IL is said that the reg ion about the river mouth is al ways flooded when the river rises unusually nigh and it is consid cred certain that the settlement has been badly damaged and probably destroyed. About the time of the Council flood the telephone lines between Council and Candle and also the Ophir creek lines went down, probably from the same cause. All told the flood was in the nature of a catastrophe. As the business sec ton of the town was undamaged there is not likely to be any sui fcring as there are ample com modities.

Swimmin' Hole Beats Indoor Pool

boys cannot let out the yells and
whoops they do along the creek
bank.
A crowd of boys can have cir
Gus at the swimming hole. Usually
a big tree shades the banks and
gives the boys a splendid oppOrtu-
nifty to loaf or wrestle when they
are tired of splashing in the water.
If they want to get their backs
burned by the sun, all they need
do is jump off the bank and swim
beyond the shade of the tree.
A sun-burned back belongs to
boyhood. A boy believes he has not
treated himself fair until his back
has been burnt several times dur
ing the summer. He Is as proud of
the aching back as a soldier is of a
wound he has suffered in battle.
Even old men in Richmond think
back of the days when they used to
visit the old swimming holes that
their grandsOns are using this very
summer. Did you ever hear two or
three old men tell Of the fun they
had along the creek? They enjoy
telling about it as much as you do
swimming or wading there this
summer.
