 The heason for the change from winter to summer is due to the peculiar situation existing in Northwestern Alaska at this time Of the year. For one thing, there will be more people in Nome in the summer time and when the Victoria makes it's special cruise to Nome an extra large number of tourists will be present to en- joy the special benefits of the fair. Also the King Islanders will be present. Their character istic and un que dances, such as the wolf dance, the eagle, and the ptarmigan dance, will be of particular interest to all new corners. They will have much better opportunity of display their ivory work and other handicraft, and to compete in their oomiak and kyak racing to much better advantage. While it is true the dog-racing cannot be held in the summer time, there will be many other attractions and sports which when added to our present talent can furnish a. show as cannot be otherwise be so complete. These programs are historical affairs and can be prolonged only through the older natives and ;heir visiting friends who teach them to the younger generation.
 The shipment of exhibits to Nome for this occasion should proceed in the usual manner, and due to the change of date, most of the. exhibits can be shippef III by the coastwise boats. Home grown vegetables from all over tfe Second Division will be in dis play also, and there will be an- other attract on of real Interest in the rounding up of large reindeer herd in this vicinity.
