ICE CREAM TASTE SUBJECT OF STUDY To study South Alaska's taste and appetite for ice cream is the mission of R. L. Clark, sales man- ager of the Western Dairy Products Company of Seattle, which makes a specialty of the Sunfreze brand of the frozen confection. “Confection! Yes, indeed,” says Mr. Clark, “and something else besides. Ice cream is an essential element of diet for the ailing and convalescent; it is a bone and a muscle building food for growing children and maturely developed athletes. It is beneficial to every physical condition, at every age in every occupation of life. “Alaska is eating more ice cream every year,” added Mr. Clark. “Trade has assumed such large proportions that the Western Prod- ucts Company now owns it own frigidaires on the steamship Queen and Admiral Rogers.” Mr. Clark will remain in Juneau several days. — ., SCHOOL GIRLS TO SITKA Doris Ulrich and Virginia Ul- rich, who have been attending school in Juneau, left here on the steamship Queen for their home in Sitka. They were accompanied by Annabel Simpson, a scheol- mate, who will be their house guest for a few weeks. ——l e Dally kmpite ¥Want Ads Pay. 5 Fast Deliveries—10, dancing in” the time wear ., . .
