“9{ext to the Largest Store in Town"
KODIAK .
DIARY ...
In the January 13 issue of the
Kodiak Minor, in this column,
we quoted an article by one Lt.
Theobald, published in the New
Yorker magazine, in which a
trip Theobald made to Kodiak
was descnbtd. (Mrs. Mildred
' Hermann OPA Territorial di
! rector, who was here at the time,
1 asked “Did New Yorker really
print that or did you just make
it up?”)
We, with our meanie streak to
the fore, sent a copy of the
Diary item to New Yorker.
A letter came from New
Yorker this week, thanking us
for our letter and saying they
wished to mail a clipping of the
article to Lieutenant Theobald.
And added:
“do far as we can see, you ac
cuse h m of only two errors of
fact; that the base administra
tive building isn’t right in town
(but any building for several
miles around would probably
seem “in town” to a casual
| visitor), and that there aren’t
■any hunting trophies on the
walls of the Montmart Maybe
the bearskin draped over his
booth somehow got multiplied
I in his eyes that night ”
! We give up. As per New
Yorker we admit Kodiak has
dirt streets, more than one Orth
odox church, no milk and no
women so we get ice cream from
the States, soldiers are always
giving one another hot foots
which is an American custom
and a dirt road leads to the
Chicken Dinner and Mont
martre (we won’t change our
spelling), almost identical frame
buildings but the latter can be
distinguished by the bear hide,
head and all, jaws realistically
agape, hanging over a booth.
That last paragraph was very
difficult to type. If you don’t
believe so, try typing some time
with YOUR fingers crossed.

Conversation overheard in a
restaurant:
Vera Pierce: (Seriously and pen
sively) I wonder when the
WAVES are coming to Kodiak?
Bill Wright: (Seriously and with
out a second pense) On the next

Not so very many months ago
Charles Madsen presented to
the Rotary Club, of which he is
a member, an ivory gavel
The gavel was especially made
and on it was inscribed the Ro
tary Seal and name and number
of the local club. It was a very
appropriate gift and the club’s
president wielded it with gusto.
But the gavel disappeared!
Some time before or during the
moving of the Rotary Club
meetings from the Wayfarer’s
Building to the Victory Cafe the
instrument vanished.
The club is very anxious to
get it back.
Anyone knowing anything
about it, or having seen it, can
do a service by communicating
