Kodiak Diary
(eontinued from page 10)
right to beat me up if he wants
to and you can’t do anything
about it!”
To which we might add that
if she is planning that move, she
had better hurry. We have it on,
good authority that the husband
has already taken steps toward
getting a divorce.
Announcement elsewhere is
made of the fact that the Kodiak
Garden club will sponsor a Gar
den show the latter part of the
summer.
The main object of the club is
to stimulate an interest in beau
tifying homes and grounds, an
object that fits in with all the
other efforts that are now com
ing to the fore to stabilize our
commun ty and make it a pleas
ant place to live.
It is hoped to have the Garden
Show be an annual affair, despite
the handicap of years of lack of
interest and the additional fact i
that the plans are being started |
late in the season.
The Garden club suggests that
everyone give their houseplants
and gardens ao extra dose of
Vitamin B to perk them up for
the show.
And if necessary, we suggest:
[that if the houseplant planters)
and garden gardeners need perk-i
ing up, they take a little extra J
dose of vitamin, too.
I We read the Kodiak Gyrene,
I (circulation app. 200), put out
by the Marine Co'ps, every time
it is put out, and an item in the
last issue put us out, too.
The seemingly innocuous art
icle said simply:
“If you have troubles,
And don’t know what to do,
Don’t be afraid,
Dial 612.” i
The minute we rend it we had
a trouble, for we began worrying
about whom we would get if we
called and then worried over;
wtiether it should be “who” we
would get
The article had a sort of Dor
othy Dix air about it, so we
thought maybe the eominand
had appointed, perhaps, some
lovely feminine counsel to whom
the lonely Barracks Boys could
appeal for help in problems of
the heart, etc.
We could just picture a trim
blonde seated at a desk at the
end of 612, waiting for an appeal
after the paper came out. It
would be fun, we thought, to call
her up. Now all we had to do
was think of a problem. The idea
came to us like a light. (2 and
one quarter watts). We would1
call and tell her we had a prob
lem and when she asked what,
we would say that our problem
was wondering who would an
swer when we called 612. That
would break the ice, if any, and
from there on we would just let
matters take care of themselves.
Walking as slowly as possible
under the circumstances we hur
ried to the phone at the ACS of
fice, dialed the 6 and the 1, and
then just before we whirled the 2
that would seal our fate a thought
came to us that caused us to
abruptly put the phone back on
the hook.
Better be cautious, the
thought said, and look the num
ber up first in the phone book
Going down the numbers on the
right side we came to it, and
read so rapidly from right to left
that it, appeared to say “216—
drauG eht fo tnaegreS’’
So we went back to work.
An unusual coincidence occur
red at Old Harbor, a Tillage
south of Kodiak, that should
come under the beading of Be
lieve It or Not.
Ob learning there was about
to be a new arrival at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Herman An
drewvitch, Mrs. Marie Bailey
expressed her hopes that it be a
girl and that she be named
Marie. Her husband, Fred E.
Bailey, hoped for a boy and that
it be Darned Fred.
On May 14 Mr. and Mrs. An
drewvitch became the proud
parents of a seven and three
fourths pound baby girl, which
they named Marie.
The June first mail brought
an announcement to Mr. and
Mrs. Bailey of the arrival, in
Michigan, ou May 14, of a seven
and three fourths pound nephew
which was named Fred F.
This was a complete surprise \
to the Baileys and turned out to
be an unusual coincidence, inas
much as both babies were born
on the same date, were the same
weight, and each named after
one of the Baileys.
Mrs. Georgya Craig Wilbur
Ellis is spending the summer
a-clerking at the Kodiak (form
erly Sunbeam) hotel
Asa badge of her office she
carts with her a cigar box, which
is a repository for keys, moneys
jollected, and etc. Some days
she has quite a several dollars in
she box.
The other day when somebody
lidn’t show up for work it w*»
lecessary for Mrs. Ellis also to
sake a few beds. As the afore
said box had quite a bit of mon
;y in it she took it on her bed
naking tour. First she did room
l, taking the box with her. Then
she did room 4, of Fred Gepner.
3he took the box with her from
} to 4. Then she took the box
with her and did room 6.
Having finished, she took the
30x and started for home in the
Felder building. Out on the
street as she walked along she
suddenly realized that the mon
;y in the box wasn’t rattling as
isunl so she looked into the box
;o see why
In the cigar box, surprisingly
snough, were cigars!
Back she hurried to the hotel
ind looked in room 2, and then
n loom 4, and in the latter her
■earch was ended. For there'was
tier money cigar box where she
:iad left it. So she left the box of
ugars and departed with her
)wn box of money.
That should have ended it but
when Fred Gepner returned to
lis room he was quite surprised
to find the box of cigars. They
weren’t his. Investigation dis
;Fsed they had come from
•oom 2.
You figure it out.

Independence Day! “The grand and glorious
4th”... more grand and glorious, this year than

You backed the attack — helped keep our
country’s independence by buying War Bonds!
Now sign a declaration of financial
independence for yourself! Back your
future with U.S. Savings Bonds!
They're just like War Bonds. They come in
the same amounts. You can buy them in the
same ways —at any bank, or post office, or on
the Payroll Savings Plan.
And, like War Bonds, for every $3 you in
vest today, you get back $4 in just 10 years!
There’s no safer, surer, easier way of build
ing financial security for yourself and your
family than through regular Bond purchases.
And there's no better way to celebrate the
4th of July than by signing up for an extra
Bond— It’s signing your own "Declaration of
Independence !”
