JUNEAU SHOUTS HAPPY NEW YEAR | IN NOISY STYLE o| Whistles, Bel|s, Crackers, Cannon Heard-Night Clear and Warm Young 1940 was accorded a noisy At the stroke of midnight, whistles, bells, fire crackers, automobile horns and even a cannon joined in a symphony of celebration for the coming of the new year and the passing of the old. The cannon fired a salco from Gastineau Avenue as the old fire bell and crocker bombs furnished the accompaniment. Boats in the harbor—including the Haida, Ton-! gass, Princess Norah and many gas boafs—sounded their whistles at 12, the Canadiah boat departing from the time-honored custom to recog- niize midnight at the same time J| as the rest of Juneau. The Alaska Juneau mill whistle joined in the general elamor as householders interrupted watch par-; ties to look outdoors on the clear- warm night and New Years' Eve merrymakers thronged the down- town streets. ————————— NOTICE It is just a nice drive out Gla- cier Highway 11 miles to Arkita’s Leather Shop. All jobs in the shop will be finished at its new location. adv. ——— Empire Want Ads Bring Results. | cooking | | 431 | quet, Wsuumv FETE HONORS RIZAL; {0 Do Honor fo Island Patriot Over one hundréd Filipinos of Ju- neau, t heir families and their friends, joined in banquet Saturday night in Parish Hall to do annual honor to Rizal Day and the memory of that world famed patriot of the Philippines for whom the day was ;named upon his death. The turkey dinner, cooked by Fili- pinos, was a huge success, and fol- lowing the dinner, speeches, enter- tainment and the playing of the Star Spangled Banner and the Philippine national anthem, a dance was enjoyed. ‘Guest of honor w.. E. L. Bartlett, Secretdry of Alaska, spesking in béhalf of Gov. Ernest Gruening, who, absent on a trip to Skagway, sent a warm letter of praise to Fili- pinos and their historic martyr for independence, Rizal, who died in prison at Manila for his attempts in early times to free his country- men. While white and brown sat side| by side and broke bread in friend- ship, Secretary Bartlett, comment- ing on the nearing independence of the Philippines, said: that by the time the independence act becomes operative, the world will have recovered sanity and it will be possible for a nation to live peace- ably with its neighbors, with no thought of conquering or being con- quered.” Tributes to Dr. Rizal, solos by Lil- lian Uggen, and music by the Fili- pino string orchestra, brought heavy applause, but hit of the evening was the singing of dark-eyed little Juan- ita Diaz, whose mother, dressed in native Filipino costume at the ban- is one of the only two full- !blood Filipino women of the com- munity, and called the “Queen” of | Juneau Filipinos. After the banquet, toastmaster |Max Rayela, nephew of Emil Galao, |kingpin of Juneau Filipinos, pro- inounced the occasion a “complete success.” CANADIAN WILL FLY INSIDE 10 SEE FAIRBANKS R. G.

Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coons HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Jan. 1. — “THE GREAT VICTOR HERBERT.” Screenplay by Russel Crouse and Robert Lively. Directed by Andrew L. Stone. Principals: Allan Jones, Mary Martin, Walter Connolly, Lee Bowman, Susanna Foster, Judith Barrett, Jerome Cowan, John Garrick, Pierre Watkin, Richard er, Hal K. Dawson. Emmett Vogan, Mary Currier, James In 1938 there was a movie about the life of Strauss the Waltz King. Thinking back on “The Great Waltz” I remember it with pleasure—remembering the splendidly presented Strauss music. $Ad%n Victor Herbert fan from 'way back, I must confess in this brief appraisal of the new picture that even now the lilting melo- dies have made me practically indifferent to whatever else made up ‘the film. On that basis alone “The Great Victor Herbert” is something to rave about—for here are all the composer’s best- known songs. Swimming in such melody, I could overlook the fact that Tex- as’s Mary Martin, a beguiling personality, is overshadowed in the duets by Jones’ powerfully pleasant voice, and that occasionally the story gets side-tracked briefly on the irrelevant matter of a young doctor (Bowman) and his fight with pneumonia in children, As the film makes clear, this is no attempt at biography. It is a boy-meets-girl story of backstage life, through which the figure of Herbert (Connolly) moves as an influencing factor. The boy is the musical star, overshadowed after marriage by the musical girl. Separated by this not unusual theatrical fate, they & llflfmf/ charming hestessess give thoughtful guests who bring gifts of delicious Van Duyn Candies. Little sttentions make you a oW AT Percy’s "must come" guest. Try its e lusivel " exc y “Uan Duy VAN DUYN CHOCOLATE SHOPS are reunited at last through their daughter (Foster) in whom both their musical talents find triumphant unien. It is an interestingly told, well-acted story—and Paramount has three stellar personalities in Jones, Matrin, and the 14-year- old Susanna. The child’s singing of “Kiss Me Again” is a thrill, and the film ends literally on a high note (B flat above high C) as she sings from “Rose of Algeria.” This is a revelation not only of a pure coloratura but of the great strides made in filmusical recording. “DESTRY RIDES AGAIN.” Sereenplay by Felix Jackson, Gertrude Purcell, and Henry Myérs from story by Felix Jackson suggested by Max Brand’s fiovel. Directed by George Marshall. Principals: Marlene Dietrich, James Stéwaft, Mischa Auer, Charles Winninger, Brian Donlevy, Allen Jenkins, Warren Hymer, Irene Hervey, Una Metkel, Billy Gilbert, Samuel S. Hinds, Jack Carson, Tom Fadden, Mr, Smith eame back fromi ‘Washington and it seems he went to 8d wild-west Bottle Ne¢k, which was practically as tough a proposition. } Mr. Smith is a deputy sheriff who doesn't believe in guns for gettling things, and almost wins that way. Not quite, because that 'villain Donlevy won't play fair, and then Mr. Smith—his name is Déstry—really gets riled and goes to town, or village. There’s a il around, named Frenchy.
