NWA Chamber
of Commerce Plans
Tourist Housing
BY RUTH MCLEAN

Sparkling plans being made to
greet, house and entertain visit
ors during the summer season,
Tourist Committee Chairman Don
Hungerford reported to the NWA
Chamber of Commerce at their
Monday meeting. He said that his
committee is working toward
adequate housing for overnight
guests during the months when
the local hotel are filled to cap
acity.
Serious consideration is also
being given to developing the
'1ast frontier" atmosphere by
asking local residents and bust
ness people to dress in that man
ner. When Mr.. Hungerford men
toned "handle-bar" mustaches,
Chamber President Jerry Man
ming noted that the two business
men who now have such mus
taches are on the tourist COM
mittee.
The Nome brochure which is
distributed to all parts of the
United States in answer to mailed
requests will be revised if neces-
sary, the committee said.
Mr. Hungerford pointed out a
successful tourist program will
need funds and his committee has
planned a Embarrassing campaign
which will include community
dances to be announced soon.
One of the first groups of Wis
itors to Nome this year will be
20 representatives from the Port
land, Ore, Chamber Of Com
merce who will be making their
ninth annual goodwill trip to
Alaska. Wilbur Arnold advised
that the group will arrive here
on March Is and stay overnight
Business houses will be asked to
participate in welcoming them by
placing appropriate posters in
their windows. Plans for meeting
and entertaining them are being
formulated, he said.
Guests at the Monday luncheon
included Joe Kroninger, Clerk of
the Court; Bob Reddaway, Stand
ard Oil Co.; Bob Curtis and w.
S. Woods of Anchorage, and Mr..
and Mrs. Ed Sundholm and dau-
ghter Yvonne of Albert City, Ia,
who are polar bear hunting in
this area.

Here is the conclusion of the
letter from Carrie McLain, writ
ten from New York, telling of
her visit to the nations capital:
What I remember of my visit
to the Ford Theater, where PreSi
dent Lincoln was shot, is a large
room, that comprised the en-
trance of the theater, the balance
of the theater long since torn
down. Everything in this room
'fbreathes" Lincoln and you are
with him from the place Of his
birth, through his political cam
paigns, and the Civil War, to the
tragic episode of his death. Di-
rectly across the narrow street,
you visit the Peterson house,
where Lincoln was carried when
he was shot. There you see the
bed where he died. Very little
change has been made except for
floor coverings and some of the
furniture, in this house of six
living rooms, and six bedrooms
upstairs.
Washington so Per Cent Colored
In spite of all this sightseeing
enjoyed my visit with Mrs.
Yaeger, who spent from 1880 to
1850 in Nome, and with Sara, her
niece and her buxom baby boy.
The cab driver who took me to
the railroad station let me know
that so per cent of Washington
is colored folks.
My next stop was at Plainfield,
Nj, to visit one Of my cousins,
who came to Alaska with us in
1905 and stayed until 1910 There
was much to reminisce of those
early days and he refreshed my
memory in several instances.
Marie, his charming wife, knew
how to chit the spot with her
Bohemian cooking While here we
visited the Stangy Potteries at
Pennington, where one goes thru
room after room Of beautiful pot
terry and sees the two huge kilns
where the dishes were baked and
the furnace doors under these
kilns where the firing was done.
The kiln is no longer used.
Towns Have Colonial Background
A glassware shop held ones in
terest, especially the beautiful
cut glass, that is in style again.
1t surprised me to see how much
of the colonial background re-
mains in these small towns es-
pecially the appearance of the
homes. The paved streets still re-
tain the contour Of the dirt roads
of the colonies all lending a
quaintness to the scene.
Here and there are points of
interest recalling where General
Washington had stayed or country
he had rode over, and we found
time to drive up to Washington
Rock where Gen. Washington
watched the British movements
in May and June, 1T, in New
York. This will give you some
idea Of the view one gets from
this vantage point.
It isn't everyone who gets to
visit a pen pal" but l did at
Roselle, Nj, just 10 miles from
Plainfield, when | spent two in

tereStlng days with FRANK +.
English and his wife. Mr.. English
has been corresponding for the
past two years, and hopes to see
enough interest manifested in a
memorial to the men and dog
teams that brought the diphtheria
anti-toxin to Nome, jan, 1925.
What brought his attention to
this was statue in New York's
Central Park of BALTIC, Gunnar
Kassen's lead dog of the team
that made the final conveyance of
the serum to Nome. The Englishes
drove me to Ashbury Park, along
the Atlantic seaboard, where a
rock seawau protects the town
from storm sprays in the winter.
The seawall is not nearly SO
heavy or as high as the Nome
seawall but it extends for miles.
All along the this Olive, one
sees the old homes that were con-
structed so to rs years ago with
easily 80 to so rooms, each with
an exterior SO picturesque that it
keeps one in a soliloquy. Most
of them were boarded up and
likely were old estates.
Really Observe Sunday
From Ashbury Park, we drove
along Ocean Grove, a Methodist
town which believes in observing.
Sunday as a Sabbath and has the
streets roped off from the high
way so no trespassing is made
of any kind We drove for a
stretch on the New Jersey Turn
pike-what a boon to motorists,
are these turnpikes and under
passes and overpasses. Another
drive found us going past Camp
Kilmer, named after Sgt. Joyce
Kilmer, poet and soldier. Not
sign of life around the countless
yellow barracks buildings, ex-
tending on both sides of the road
for all Of mile and for quite
depth. 1t was camp k1lmer that
housed the Hungarian refugees
last year.
Everywhere one comes across
building or housing projects,
some of them government. Road
work seems to be in evidence as
the highways are making de-
mands for enlargement. But what
a pleasure to be- on paved roads
in all directions!
My pictures and slides continue
to be shown and l have noticed
that by visiting friends and rel
atives l touch a source Of interest
that one does not always touch
just by driving or going through
a city.
1t took one hour by bus to
reach New York City from New
Jersey and we crossed the Hud-
son River through one of three
tubes" Bridges and tunnels
have supplanted the ferries.
You'll hear about New York
in my next letter.
