Fire Prevention Campaign Going
 Over Big Way
fRv The Associated Pressl

(By The Associated Press> |.
 Nome's ten-day Fire Proven ton Campaign has been yielding exceptionally fine results, reports Chief of Police w. w. Laws, who has been inspecting houses thru out the city during the past week.
 Chief Laws reports that discov- ering a large number of faulty stove pipes, and other minor ire hazards in the city.
 He has reported the conditions to the occupants of the houses and he declares that the response IS 100 percent favorable, the people highly pleased when told of any hazards existing in their homes.
 They have immediately promis ed to have them corrected, and in no case, says Chief Laws, has anyone refused to cooperate and repair faulty conditions.
 This speaks well for Nomeites, and proves the contention "that an ounce of prevention is worth a mound of cure"-and the chanc- es of fires breaking out due to faulty heating conditions, is there by being reduced to minimum.

Pn grim g Springs Children Have
 Awards in Fair

Nome Daily Nugget,
 Nome, Alaska.
 Dear Editor:
 It may be interesting to you and to your many readers of the Nugget" that the Fair which was recently held in Juneau, brot honor and distinction to the Mis- sion School at Pilgrim Springs. During the past years when the City of Nome, had its own EX- hibition and Fair, the work of the children of this school was al- ways sent to Nome for public display. Since the Fair was dis continued in Nome, the work of the children at Pilgrim Springs, has been somewhat lost sight of.
 Last summer it was decided to send some of the exhibits and arts of the children to the South eastern Alaska Fair, which was held the early part of Septem- Der in Juneau. To our great sur prise, at the conclusion of the Fair, the Mission School of Pill grim Springs was awarded ten of the prizes for efficiency in the Native Educational Department. The prizes were cheeks averag- ing in amounts from 50 cents to $2.00. Winners of these checks, were children of Nome, Kotzebue, Mary's Mountain and Shelton.
 Seeing that dull work in the class -rOOm is accompanied With visible and lucrative rewards, the children of Pilgrim Springs Mission are now animated with new enthusiasm to do better next year and increase the num- Der of honors for their Alma Mater.
 Respectfully, Rev. E. J. Cunningham.
