The intervening period promises to be one of the briskest shop- ping seasons in Juneau's history. So take our tip. Don't wait until the last minute. ping list ready -— and be ready to get busy on it. Get the shop- ", A, Sy The increases in expenditures, both by government and private business, the establishment of new credits, increases in wage scales and increases in the prices of certain commedities, all have the tendency to raise the general price level. It is a tendency that may be called reflationary rather than inflationary, because many com- modity prices are still below normal levels. But whatever term may be used the result will be the same — a trend toward higher prices which cannot be avoided altogether, although we are assured that every effort will be made to keep it within legitimate bounds. Thrift, as well as a sense of promptitude, will therefore lead the foresighted to meet the needs of their own households along with their shopping for Christmas gifts. Early shoppers will find full assortments of merchandise and plenty of salespeople waiting to serve them. Those who wait until too late may find much of this merchan- dise gone and salespeople overwhelmed in the eleventh-hour rush. « Shop early! Mail early! ' The purchaser who follows this rule willshelp the merchant and the salespeople, the postal employees, the gift recipient — and most of all, this year particularly, he will help himself. | L.

JUNEAU'S C Puzzling Gridiron Sifuation CLOVIS, N. M., Dec. 3.—Coach R. K. Stanbus of the Clovis High School Wildcats has twin troubles. For years Slaubus and his assist- ants had locked forward to the time when Dick and Jim Colvin, identical twin brothers, would get into high school and be eligible for the high school football team. The two nat- ural football players were trained almost from the time they began to walk to tote a football. Finally they got into high school and Stabus immediately built a backfield around them | Then in the first game of the sea- son, Jim—or maybe it was Dick—got a broken arm. He's been on the hos- pital list since. Now Stabus’ hopes are all shat- | tered. He had to rebuild his entire backfield. He admits that Dick—or | whichever one of the two was left— !isnt’ half as good as he was when | his twin was playing the opposite | halfback. e — AUTOMOBILE OWNERS ATTENTION The 1941 Automobile License Plates are now available and on sale at the office of the City Clerk.
