FIRE PREVENTION WEEK
 IN NOME APRIL Fist to 26th

You can help to save life and pro
 r,rty from needless fire destruction.
 Councilman R. B. Julian who is Chairman of the Fire and Police .Committee of Nome has instigated
 FIRE PREVENTION WEEK start ing next Monday April 2lst and last
 ing until the following Saturday, April 18th. Everyone can assist in this move which is one of the best started in Nome this year.
 In 1922 fire destroyed more than 900 lives and s521,S60.O00 in property, the loss being the largest ever known in the United States in one year.
 Councilman Julian says, most fires are preventable, every one should remove all rubbish and other hazards, and ask the Fire Depart
 ment for advice, watch lighted matches and smoking materials and above all else cultivate carefulness. |" It would possibly be within the bounds of reason to say that 99 out of every 100 fires are more or less caused by some act of carelessness. probably not direct carelessness, but in some way carelessness contri- brted a certain extent to the origin of the blaze.
 Carelessness in any form is one Of tEe most unforgivable sins committ- e. in this day. and carelessness with fire takes on a double significance AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH A GALLON OF CURE-Ob.
 serve Fire Prevention Week by CLEANING the FLUES on your houses and removing any old or newly collected rubbish in the vicini- ,y of your homes. The Chief of the Fire Department is always ready to
 answer questions pertaining to the prevention of fires, and also will give suggestions on how to clean danger
 ous fues thoroughly.

By |. '. .tnuFeWS.
 kivalina has been favored with winter milder than usual. and with nc specially sever, storms. The cold est to date is 40 degrees below. and this but once. For probably as much as the last two months or more. how ever, the thermometer has not risen above zero at any time. Today it stands at 26 below. with a strong North wind. the snow driving over the ground like smoke and drifting behind anything that will afford a protection from the wind.
 Trapping has not prospered thus far. few foxes being all the catch this season. One white bear was killed at sea of this place, but on new ice that broke away and went to sea before the skin could be taken. Sealing has been very poor. not more than twenty five or thirty seals and one oogoorook being taken. The
 reason for this is less cold weather to make ice and the off-shore winds which make going out on the ice dangerous.
 Charlie Jensen. living near Cape Thompson. was out sealing when the ice-field on which he was travelling broke away and went to sea. His
 wife saw him going. got a boy, girl and man to help her. and put of in an oomiak and went after him. She picked him up but was unable to get him back to land and stayed out at sea all night without food or water. and next day the party reached shore over the new ice by abandoning the , boat.
 The enrolment in the school is 32 ard an average of 23 in attendance. The attendance is low on account of many children having to go out to i tfe reindeer camps with their par ents.
 Superintendent Sylvester Chance, of the Bureau of Education. honored rs with a visit in December and other than this no white person has
 come to Kivalina during the winter. With the exception of Joseph Fer i era. who lives near Cape Thompson
 the nearest white person to kivalina ! is at Point Hope (Tigara). ninety i five miles to the northwest.
 The sun did not shine at this place
 from the 18th. of December. when if waded half-leg-deep in the ocean,
 until January 1st. It probably
 showed little above the horizon on
 the last two or three days of Decem-
 Der but those days were cloudy and
 it could not be seen.
 The health of the people here has
 been very good during the winter.
 One bad case of infection of a wound l a few cuts and wounds and some
 sore threats. with the usual chronic rheumatism and one case of rheu-
 T attic fever. are the maladies up to the present. i We are looking forward to one
 more mail by dog team over the trail. The first mail team brought very little. so we have really had but
 one mail thus far this winter.

THE HOMES BEGINNING.

c. L. Cogswell. pastor of the Gov
eminent Hill Christian Church, be-
gan on last Sunday evening series
of sermons dealing with the American
home.
His first sermon dealt with the sub
ject of courtship as he recognized this
as preliminary to the beginning of a
home. Customs of courtship in an
cient times and in foreign countries of
the present day were reviewed. A
plea was made for people to look upon
courtship more seriously as it is often
the courtship began in a thoughtless
way and carried on in frivolous man.
ner that results in an unhappy mar
riage.
The dangers of the too great free
dom often allowed boys and girls who
are very. immature in their associa-
tons with the opposite sex were point
ed out. Parents were reminded of
their duties in training their children
to meet these problems and in exer-
cising proper oversight over these re-
lations Of their children.
"If we are to have Christian homes
we must see to it that Christian ideals
govern the associations of our young
people for out of these associations
will grow the attachments for each
other which will result in the founda-
ton of homes, Rev. Mr.. Cogswell said
The sermon for next Sunday evening
will deal with the question of choosing
companion. This sermon is expect
ed to appeal particularly to the young
Deople.
