QUESTIONING ALONG MAIN
 STREET
BY JAY RAYMOND

Ii wasn't so much the idea of the hard work involved-it was simply the idea of getting the job done.
 As a result-you see this is- sue of The Nugget-printed in far different style than hereto fore.
 To say that we're not proud of 1t would be highly facetious. To say that we are satisfied with the job-iS something else again. But the issue does indicate the staff of The Nugget spends con- siderable time planning for a newspaper suitable to the needs of Nome and vicinity.
 May We add to our efforts and extend a personal wish-that you and yours have the finest Christ mas and the most prosperous Na.a Year you've ever enjoyed?
