This is made possible with the ad- dition of the new plane, which will make a total of two planes on hand for operations, and two planes un- der repair for use in the near future according to C. E. Walters, instructor. The school is now in a position to accept new students to learn to fly, stated Mr. Walters, and will be able to give more individual |instruction than what has been the case in the past. i Plans For Seaplane | Plans have been made for the use of a seaplane, but nothing def- inite has been received yet, due to the fact of government priorities on aluminum with which seaplane pontoons are manufactured, so the school will have to wait government priority to receive the' new equip- ! ment which will be sometime in the near future. | The local school, which is located \at the Juneau airport, is awaiting for allocation of a plot of land |from the CAA, but at present are | using the fine Juneau port for landings. Students interested in learning to fly are asked to seek information from Mr, Walters in this regard as |soon as possible.

ANNGUNCEMENT TO THE PUBLIC IN REGARD TO OUR . - FRESH MILK-- George Bros. were told by the managers of the North Star Dairy that we HAVE to sell all fresh milk retail for 20 cents per quart or they would not furnish us with milk. " This being America— We don't feel just exactly proud of someone telling us what we HAVE TO DO — as long as we are abiding by laws of the country. We have always paid the North Star Dairy the full wholesale price they have asked for their milk, IN CASH DAILY, regardless of cost. We told the North Star Dairy we would take their entire supply of fresh milk —and we also told the public if HE COULD NOT SUPPLY US ENOUGH MILK then we would get enough cows of our own to make up the shortage. Thisisexactly what we are doing, as he has not been supplying us with enough milk. We have been selling milk for 15 cents per quart — We feel this is a fair price for milk and milk can be produced to sell for this price even now regardless of raise in stock feed. If and when the price of grain or feed goes higher and we feel it can't be produced for 15c per quart then we will notify the pub- lic of any such raises if in the price of fresh milk. Until sucha time occurs we shall maintain a price of 15 cents per quart to the public on Grade A Fresh Milk. Asthis notice came to us so suddenly it leaves us with only a small herd fo try to supply the big demand for our fresh milk but within the next 150r 20 days we will have a much larer P~-d and which will be increased until we have enough cows io maintain our demand for Fresh Grade A Milk to i ; .S T the PHONES 92-95 GEORGE BROTHERS Phones—85 .. o, PSS SUPER MARKET S and ERR - — T s AR o
