Welcoming incoming Arctic Cruisers" aboard the s. S.

 The success of the Third An nual Fair in April this year brot sharply home to Nomeites and visitors from all over Seward Peninsula, the true values and purposes which such an institu- tion possesses for this section of the country.
 The fostering of friendly ac- quaintanceshjps, promotion of bas io industries of the section, devel opment of Eskimo handicrafts and arts, and the furthering of domestic training for our child ren, are only some of the splen- did underlying motives behind these Fairs.
 With some of the most public minded citizens of Nome work ing religiously to put over this Mid Summer Festival and Fair, and the public as a whole gener- ally interested and taking part in many phases of its work, it can

be unquestionably stated that the Grand Opening of the Fair to- morrow night will attract the at tention of everyone in town, in cluding all visitors.
 Of major importance in the staging of Fairs in Alaska, is the assistance rendered by the Ter ritorial Government. The Ter ritorial Legislature appropriates S2,00000 for each biennium, 10 each division to assist in paying the expenses of these affairs. With out this asstance many Fairs held throughout Alaska would prob ably be forced to discontinue Much of this money is spent in prizes and in other ways to eSta- blish tHe competitive spirit of exhibition which is so vital.
 Through the activity contingent to the Fairs, general business con ditions have been proven to be improved and the friendly spir- it of the town and its people greatly enhanced.
 We cite these facts for your information and as a means of calling upon you to lead in this admirable work As always oc- CUTS in matters of this kind, there are some who see little to be gained from the work neces- sary 10 put over the Fairs. But with the optimistic viewpoint of those who have the best inter ests of the community and divis- ion al heart, it is believed that they will join with the public

US. MISSIONARIES
|N|NVADERS' PATH
SO Not Heard From Since
Tsinan Consulate Was
Closed Friday.
BY the Associated Press,

PEIPING, August 3l.-American
oficials expressed sharp anxiety today
for 80 United States missionaries in
Shantung Province who have not been
heard from since the consulate at
Tsinan, the provincial capital, was
closed last Friday.
The Shantung missionaries, as well
as 40 more in Southern Hopeh Prov
ince, were directly in the path OF
twin Japanese columns advancing
southwark from Peiping and Tientsin.
The spearhead Of the Japanese ad-
vance along the Tientsin to Pukow
Railroad was reported we'll within bonn
bardment range Of the city OF Ma
chang, 40 miles south Of Tientsin. The
5000 men Of the vanguard had
pushed ahead 10 miles in the last
48 hours.
Stretched across the railroad, which
links North China to Nanking, were
units OF the Chinese 29th Army COM
bined with troops of "the Christian
general" Feng Yu-hsiang. Some
25,000 Chinese were reported at
Machang
The United States consul, John
Allison, closed the Tsinan consulate
Friday, urging all Americans to
evacuate the interior OF the province.
Sixty Catholic priests and nuns and
SO Presbyterians, United States Mis-
sion Board, Adventist and Methodist
missionaries, however, stuck to their
posts
japanese scheduled the evacuation
OF the last Of their $4,000 nationals
from Standings eastern seaport city
OF Tsingtao today. Only 300 japanese
consular attaches and advisers Of the
local government were to remain.
After the evacuation, japanese boats
will no longer call at Tsingtao as it
was expected that similar British ac-
ton would be taken momentarily. This
would mean that the Americans could
reach safety only after a long over
land journey to the South
strong Japanese column was mov-
ing to the northwest into Chahar
Province, claiming control of the
Peiping- -Suiyuan Railroad, except for
a f1ve-mile stretch in the heart OF
l5-mile long Nankow Pass, where
hghting has been raging for many
days. Japanese claimed control of
both the southern and northern en-
frances to the historic gateway to
Manchuria.
Japanese sources expressed the be-
lief their advancing columns from
farther north and Manchukuo to the
east would join near Kalgan, 100 miles
north Of here, and block the retreat
of the Chinese 89th Division, which
marched into Eastern Chahar 10 dhvs

first. They fled, however, when Jap
anse police convinced them they had
choice betfeen flight and death.
Japans action in warning the ma
tive population of an impending at
tack was believed to have been in
spired by sharp reaction abroad
against sudden japanese attacks in
which thousands of non-combatant
Chinese have been killed or manned.
Claim Capture of Railroad.
Japanese also claimed capture of
the Shanghai-Woosung Railroad sta
ton. But at least part of the Japanese
massed aerial and artillery fire ap-
parently was a frantic effort to close
q gap in Japanese lines between
Woosung and Liuho, base of the wedge
the invaders are attempting to drive
southwark toward mid-Shanghai.
AS the troop ships poured more
and more Japanese reinforcements
ashore on the south bank of the
Yangtze Japanese air squadrons were
active far afield. Military authorities
believed Japan soon would have 10000
men opposed to the estimated 5OO,-
900 Chinese around Shanghai and
Nanking
The official Central Chinese News
Agency reported more than 80 civilians
had been killed in a raid by %
Japanese bombers on Tsingchow, on
the Tientsin-Pukow Railroad in North
China.
In South China six japanese planes
made two raids on the principal city
OF Canton, but were driven off. In
a raid against the military airdrome
at Shekpei, IS miles east Of Cam
ton, and the Sun Yat-sen University,
some Of the bombs apparently failed
to explode and only small damage
was done. Chinese reported l8 per-
sons killed at the airdrome. Two
of the raiders were shot down by the
guns Of Bocca and Tigris Forts.
