THE oai’HANAOE NEWS LETTER.
Fred Umia in it w oar type-setter.
Nearly all of the l)t. ember issue was
set up bv him. It was his firs* ex
perience in the work, ami although
he is not very rap'd he makes up in
being careful, so that there are fe-*er
mistakes to correct, and speed will
come with practice Inasmuch as he
lik.-s the work his progress »ill be
rapid.
Through an oversight we failed to
mention in our 1 <*st issue a v^ry much
prized acquisition at the Winch Dor
mitory. When Miss Uines returned
from her furlough she brought with
her a fine victrola, the gift of the
World Wide Guild of Elgin. Ill An
important part <yf the gift was an ex
ceptionally line lot of records. When
we were without an organist we used
the victrola fur the musical part of
our Sunday evening eery ion.
An org iD was purchased for the
Winch Dormitory last fall, so in the
near future we may expect a fine
group of musicians f-om our family
of ‘20 girls, with high class music of
the victrola as an example and inspi
ration, and the organ on which to
practice, with Miss Mattson to give
lessons, practical results may natural
ly be expeoted
B> removing a partition the girls’
sitting room was considerably en
large.1. It now includes a small room
that previously was of little service.
The entire room was repainted and
with a donated second-hand rug was
made to look quite cozy. However
there is still chance for a big im
provement if the money were avail
able to do it.
Kohl in. Kazahaya said. “ I wonder
how applet* grow? ” lie was told
they grew on trees, then he asked,
14 L)o the trees eat the apples? tf
While 'he Hiiovv wan on the ground
we filled our ioe-bo»»«*e with 1(» inch
cubes of clear beautiful ice. This
assure* us of our usual Sunday desert
o ice cream all during the summer
and indeed till there is new iceiu the
lakes next fall.
We had the pleasure of having as
oar guest for several days Dr Clayton
A Pollard. He has been doing some
dental work in Kodiak, to the very
great satisfaction of all his patients
His methods are up to date, and he is
v-rv careful and conscientious in his
work. It is the hope of the entire
community that he will permanently
settle in Kodiak.
There seems to be a good prospect
that Kodiak will become a thriving
town in the near future, in which
cate there will be a good opening for
a first class dentist and we believe
Dr. Pollard is the man.

minus sixteen? ,f Joseph replied:

ytt. ”
The small boys were getting ready
for bed, as usual some were undressed
before others and were going through
all sorts of antics while waiting.
