He came back to Juneau when the supervision of the Fairbanks sta- tion was transferred to Juneau. Yesterday, Thompson’s office gang here presented him with a hand- some pen set as a going-away gift. The meteorologist said today that although be didn’'t like the idea Of leaving Juneau, he felt that ne should accept the promotion that 30es with .the new job. Mrs, Thompson now is in Seattle and ~ill join her husband later, Claude V.

Refreshments of coffee and sand- d after the final games were played. Thirty-five their invited guests were present and all agreed that the evening was one of the most entertaining of the season.

Possibly it was Jefferson who started pumping the blood of a liv- | ing personality into the place. Jef-H ferson was a national figure of only ightly less stature than Washing- ton and his coming to the mansion gave it an aura of tradition as well as political power. Nevertheless, it was not until the British had sacked Washington and burned the mansion, and Hoban hml | set about rebuilding it, that it| (-m(‘l'(z(‘(l as “the White House.” | By that time, the outlines of | the central part of the building became pretty much as they are taday and it remained only for Andrew Jackson to turn the building around, making the North Portico the front door; and for the long east and west wings £o be built to give it its present. appearance, It has :a. swimming: pool in the | west wing now and beautiful lawns | where the old swamp used to be.| Many .of its rooms have charm and | dignity. The Pr vsklnnl has his breakfast in bed and starts the day’s work before he is out of his pajamas. He lunches from a steam table in his office, | gemerally in conference. The dinners are nearly always family or small group affairs, especially on Sunday night, when Mrs. Roosevelt serve scrambled eggs to a small gath- ering . of ,intimates, But these are not the things that | make the White House a world per- | sonality. Probably much more vital | to -that jgrowing tradition is the | of weekly conferences with the men who are turning the cogs in our World War machine; the historic sesslons such as that with Winston Churehill; and above all those daily+ utterances which come out of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue for all the world to weigh and consider: “The | | White House says. . ..” AR L S | | LOLA’S BEAUTY SHOP Will be closed until March 10, 1942. | —adv. | Subserioe w The Emplre.
