DIARY ...
Bonnie I.opuson, employed at
Helen’s Eat Shop, received this
week from her husband, “some
where in Sicily”, a souvenir of
the campaign on that island.
Her husband, Dick, is in the
Air Corps, and the souvenir he
*etjt was a medium-sized hand
kerchief, seemingly made of silk.
The handkerchief is red with a
large while circle in the center,
and emblazoned in ihe white
•ircle is a black swastika. Many
of the people Bonnie has shown
it to have wasted their time on
offers to buy it.
In the letter accompanying
the handkerchief her husband
said:
“I am sending you a little
souvenir of what the Nazis and
wops used to wipe up the tears
in Sicily ”
In case you ever wish to ship
a kitten from Kodiak to Un
alaska, you may be interested in
knowning the fare is $d.75 plus
tax. We di covered this when
we fouuii out fhal two kittens,
1 month old earh. were taken
there by young Bra I ford Mar
tin, age 7, who left with his
mother recently to join Mr.
Martin, who is U. 8. Commis
sioner of that city
The kittens did belong to Mrs.
Warren Taylor. Bradlo d want
ed one, and Mrs Taylor, con
fronted with the usual problem
in disposing of a brood, or litter,
or whatever it is, of kittens, in
fluenced him into taking two
That was before either Brad
ford or Mrs. Taylor discovered
it would take $9 to transport,
the kitties. Learning it was $9
made Mrs Taylor regret having
urged the second feline on its
recipient. The lecipient didn’t
mind, though.
At the risk of breaking our
arm we print the following from
Ralph Naughton, Whifcter
Alaska:
“Thanks for the papers. The
old Kodiak Mirror is a pretty
good paper in comparison to
mo6t Alaska papers.”
Thank you, Ralph, for them
kind of kind words. But where
do you get that “old”? We’re

You can bet your

plenty of it — power shovels and
