"NO ECONOMIC MISERY
 IN NOME

Reports from New York state that Xmas purchases this year were in excess of last year by about 30 per cent and that therefore there was no "Economic Misery" While one who is a student of economies will assuredly take issue with this broad statement and the conclusion reach ed from such an isolated instance we of Nome certainly can say with out contradiction that there is no Economic Misery in Nome.
 Merchants of Nome report that their Xmas business was highly satisfactory. in several instances exceeded that of last year by hand some margin. Being in touch with one another as we of this commun- ity are, each and every instance of want is quickly ascertained and just as quickly relieved, for those who have are always willing to g:ve part of their own to him or her who is in need. AS a community we have our faults-and what com munity is perfect?-but when any case of want or misery arises, when any of our fellows are in need of assistance, all else is set aside and the true spirit of the Northland as serts itself. If any place in the whole United States can boast of no "Economic Misery" Nome certainly is the place. We wont let it exist longer than it takes to learn of it's presence.

CHRISTMAS DAY SPENT
 QUIETLY IN NOMD

Christmas Day in Nome was spent very quietly. There were no puhMo functions, instead the many homes each had their own celebration. Dinner parties were a feature of tho days enjoyment Many bachelors were fortunate enough to receive invitations to eat their Xmas din- ne- in the homes of their married friends and they certainly took ad- vantage of their opportunity. As an accommodation to late shoppers some of the business houses opened their doors for few hours to en-. able the belated ones to make neces sary purchases.

CHRISTMAS DOIN0S AT
 THE YUBA CAMP AT & LITTLE CREEK

The one hundred people who com- pose the population of the little community at Little Greek. emple- yees of the Ypbs Manufacturing Company, and the families of sev- eral of them, celebrated the Christi mas time in a good old fashioned way
 Work was suspended dSunday and Monday and the men had well deserved rest. Sunday night. Xmas Eve. the ladies decorated the large dining room and Social Hall with streamers of colored paper. tinsel ard bells and made it look like . real Xmas.
 Christmas morning breakfast wa" served at o'clock and during the day dog sled parties and parties on skis visited the camp. In the af- ternoon the Company employees from the Power Plant in Nome be- gan to arrive with the Company dog teams and sleighs. and at o'clock
 all sat down to wonderful Christi mas dinner. No finer dinner could have been spread than that given to the employees here.
 The menu consisted of soup. salad, turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes, asparagus tips, beets. sweet pickles, ripe olives, spiced Si-
 berian crab apples, mince and lem- on pie, ice cream. coffee and cake, candy, nuts. apples and oranges. It was all most enjoyable, one old sourdough was heard to say, "its the first time anything like this has happened in Alaska" While it may be true that this was the first time the management will see that it is not the last time.
 The invited guests present were
 MT. J. J. Hamlyn, President Of the Miners and Merchants Bank of Nome, with Mrs. Hamlyn and Jack. MT. Julien, merchant of Nome. and Mrs. Julien were also present.
 The Power Plant crew. with their families and the Nome guests returned to Nome after the moon had come up. returning in the same manner as they had come out.
 Work on the dredges is progress ing far better than had been eI- pected. The weather Gods cer- tainly have been good to all con- cerned with the work.
 The camp got some excitement Sunday night when it was learned that one of the men had started for Nome at o'clock p. m. and had not returned here at 6 o'clock. The wind was strong and it was feared
 he might have become lost. A search party was organized and was about to start out when word reach ed camp that he had returned to Nome after being lost for a time.
 Good progress is being made at the Power Plant and the contractor is pretty well advanced with the high tension power line being erect ed between the Power Plant and the dredges.
 Jack Williams had been pronounc ed cured by Dr. Welch and returned to work at the dredge.
