The Nome nugget. [volume] (Nome, Alaska) 1938-????, 1954-11-03

President James Madison and
Edmund H. Taylor, Jr., reveal
the same elegance and good
taste in their small capitals. At
the same time. both show their
practical nature in the slope of
their writing and their mutual
disjointed style marks their en-
ergy and genius. The an" and
IN" formations show amiability
but firmness.
Madison, of course, became
President of the United States.
Taylor was equally successful
in his way as banker, cattle
man, and manufacturer of a fine
bourbon whiskey, to which he
gave his name.
Where you find that one used
his ready intuition and ability to
master details for a successful
political career, the other worked
at turning out Kentucky bour-
bon, Old Taylor, which 100 years
later is still recognized as peak
achievement.
Check for yourself and see
whether these signs of character
aren't evident. The people among
your friends who make you won
der where they get all their en-
ergy are likely to have an
angular handwriting. A fertile
imagination usually reveals it.
self in rounded writing; while
the man of courage is likely to
write the first letter of his name
with a flourish.
Handwriting won't tell any
ones fortune, but it will tell
something of what he is.

Owl Delays Voting but
Doesn't Give a HOot

UNION MILLS, NC, R-An
owl, who probably doesn't give a
boot who wins the election, de-
layed the start of voting Tuesday
in this Rutherford County town.
When election officials c. Y.
Nancy Jr., Republican, and John
E. Black, Democrat, opened the
community house to prepare for
the balloting they discovered the
owl in the building.
After about 20 minutes it was
shooed outside, where it took up
a post on a nearby bush.

straight face" he wasn't regis
tered.

Your friends who use graceful
capitals will usually be people of
taste and elegance.
Standing alone, capitals indi-
cate good memory; connected
with other letters in the name,
forgetfulness. However, sepa-
rated initials followed by con-
nected writing suggest foresight
climaXed in realized ambition.
When the small letters are
closed, they imply reserve; open,
they stand for frankness; ir-
regular, discretion. Writing that
slopes backwards shows dis
trust; straight up indicates an
austere personality. A moderate
slope to the right is sign of a
practical nature; the more it's
slant, the greater the sentiment
tai trend.
1t is interesting to note that
relatives sometimes separated
by a generation OF more will
write the same way and have
the same characteristics. Take,
for example, two well-known
descendants of the first James
Taylor, who arrived in America
from England in 1868. Both

Students at Alaska U.
Bag Variety of Game
To Supplement Menus

Do you want some caribou or
moose steaks, a brace of nicely
fried grouse or perhaps some
broiled rabbit? Maybe your game
tastes run to bear steaks, seal or
ptarmigan.
Name it, and beyond a doubt a
student at the University of Alas
ka can fill the menu, for campus
newcomers swear this is "the
huntingest university" they ever
have seen.
Andrew Nerland Hall, the mems
principal dormitory, boasts a large
gun rack equipped with individ-
ual locks where the students
"check in their shooting irons"
when they come on campus. These
same students don't allow the
weapons to gather any dust. They
use them whenever they have
'ime for hunting.
If the students have only a snort
time they walk a short distance
off campus and down as many
snowshoe rabbits as they can pack
back. They also bag grouse on
these walks. Walk along the cam
pus roads these winter days and
you'll see rabbits and grouse
hanging out the windows in moth
err natures icebox, awaiting only
a sharp appetite and hot frying
pan.

figures and some absentee ballots
remained uncounted.
Montana-In 886 of 1904 pre-
cincts, Democratic Sen. James E.
Murray had 1856 votes and Re-
publican Rep. Wesley A. D'Ewart
had 92,9O4.
Oregon-Republica Sen. Guy
Gordon had 185,3O8 votes to 49,
$40 for Democratic Richard L.
Neuberger, but about half of
Multnomah County's vote, where
Neuberger had been running
strongly, remained untabulated.
Either party could take Senate
control by winning two of the
three remaining races, since Vice
President Nixon could break a tie
for the Republicans if they turn
ed up with 48 members and
Morse has promised to vote with
the Democrats.
Although the Republicans lost
the House by what may be mar
gin of 25 or more members, Presi-
dent Eisenhower told a White
House news conference he does
not see in this result any repudi-
alton or disapproval of his adj
ministration's policies.
Democrats were pleased with
the outcome, but it obviously did
not reach the proportions some of
them had expected circum-
stance that some Republicans said
could be attributed to Eisenhow-
er's own last minute campaigning
and the vigorous drive made by
Nixon.
In a give-and- take, Democrats
took away Republican seats in
Kentucky, Michigan, Nevada and
Wyoming, while Republicans re-
taliated by grabbing Democratic
seats in Ohio, Colorado and Iowa.
New Dealer Averell Hartman
led the parade of Democrats who
turned Republicans out of COVER
norships. He squeaked through by
10000 margin out of more than
million New York state votes,
defeating Republican Sen. Irving
M. Ives.
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, Repub-
lican whose political future might
be affected by Ives loss, ordered
a police guard on all voting ma
chimes pending a public recanvass
of the votes.

Juneau Strike Closes
Gastineau Hotel for
First Time in Its History

JUNEAU, R-The Gastineau
Hotel here closed Monday for the
first time in its history as a result
of Juneau's hotel and restaurant
strike, now in its fourth week.
The closure of the Gastineau
leaves Juneau with only two
transient hotels: the Baranof with
100 rooms and the Juneau Hotel
with IS. The 9O-room Gastineau
was Juneau's only transient hotel
for many years and known as one
of the finest in Alaska.
The strikers are seeking a
one-dollar- day across the-board
increase in an 18-month contract.
The employers have held out for
an increase of 10, cents an hour.
Efforts are being made to SUBJ
init the dispute to a conciliator.
