Engineer to Make Survey Of Nome Light & Power System, Rate Structure

Pearse Walsh, president of the Nome Light and Power Utility Board, reports that during his re- cent visit to Seattle, he contacted Grande & Co.,, requesting that they recommend a consulting en- gineer to make a survey of the Nome electric system. Grande & Co. are the bond underwriters for NIL. & P.
 The bonding ordinance pro- vides that comprehensive sur vey and report must be made of the operation and conditions of the electric system by a consult ing engineer at least once every five years.
 Accordingly the underwriters recommended MT. Roy w. John son of Seattle to make the sur vey.
 At the Utility Board meeting last night the board agreed to en- ter into a contract with MT. John son to make the required survey and also to make a study of the Nome Light and Power rate struc- ture.
 It was also reported at last nights meeting that the engine leased from FAA is now in posi- ton in the power plant and oil and water pipes are now being installed.
 When this engine is put into operation the generating capacity of the NIL. & P. plant will be increased by about 300 kilowatts.

Turkish Coffee

Other popular foreign cof-
fees are Turkish and Vien-
nese. Traditionally, Turkish
coffee is made in an ibrik
but a heavy saucepan will
do. After it is brewed, the
coffee should be served in
tiny cups about the size Of
an eggshell. And be sure
each guest gets his share Of
the creamy foam. In Arabic,
this is called "the face of
the coffee" and you lose
face If you serve coffee
without it.
To make four servings,
measure 1l2 cups water into
a saucepan or ibrik. Add 4
teaspoons sugar and bring to
a boil. Stir in 4 tablespoons
very finely ground coffee.
Allow brew to froth up 8
times, then remove from heat.
Add a few drops of cold water.
Spoon some of the foam into
each cup and pour in the
coffee.
Although Viennese enjoy
many versions of their world
renowned coffee, the simplest
recipe is to brew extra
strength coffee. sweeten to
taste and top with a drift of
schlagober Viennese for
whipped cream.
Another popular brew that's
making the rounds is Irish
coffee. For this, simply make
a pot of strong black coffee
Then place 2 teaspoons sugar
in a warmed glass and fill
about two-thirds full with hot
coffee. Mix. Add 2 tablespoons
Irish whisky and top with
softly whipped cream. Do not
stir after adding cream. Sip
