The doorman has | been instructed as to which switch- |es to throw in order that all out- side, visible lights will be turned |out. Ushers, in turn have been |assigned to exits, armed with flash- |1ights, to direct and assist patrons |in leaving the theatre, if they wish to do so. man- | JUNEAU COWS FROZEN THINKS GIRL MILKER George Danner, local dairyman, recently inserted an advertisement |in the Farm-Journal asking for a milker. Among the answers received was one from a Miss Minnie Meyerhofer, of Okanogan County, Washington. Miss Meyerhofer had read Mr. Danner’s ad and wanted to apply, being able to milk four cows in an |hour “if they don't give too much ' milk.” But before committing herself to the job, Miss Meyerhofer wished to {make sure of certain things. First |she wanted to know if the Danner family, and hired help Jived in separate igloos or one large ice cave. Also she wished to determine |how many wives he had, what the lcows eat, and what the people do in the winter time. If Danner had time to leave his {farm and dalry, where the grass | grows faster than the cows can crop it and Minnie probably would have | trouble milking two cows an’hour he’d pull on his Arctic ice cap and go down and explain the climate of Juneau to the Okanogan miss. It's getting pretty late in the sea- {sm\ now, howevef, and Danner | might get lost in a snowdrift in Okanogan County. — - Other measures include an emer-|® ® © ¢ ¢ ¢ & © ¢ ¢ ¢ ¢ o gency lighting system which has!® WEATHER REPORT . |been installed that, in the eventi' (U. 8.

Except in the event of an actual raid, the employees {have been instructed to continue the performance as usual. i Provisions for Raids Also | In the event of an actual raid and resultant bombing, Mr. Garvin | has made the following provisions: | a hose line, with nozzle to the roof is in place at all times, and| ‘attached to a sill cock; an addi-; tional line is coiled in front of | the theatre for immediate use; sand pails and shovels are placed at each end of the auditorium |with four extra boxes of sand readily available; the usual fire consisting of | soda tanks and three hand pump type extinguishers are on" |hand and two more soda tanks| have been ordered, to be installed| upon arrival; a complete supply of | first aid material is on hand at all times. All fire fighting equip-| ment has recently been inspected‘ by the fire department and re-| filled, Mr. Garvin concluded. } 20th Century and Coliseum The 20th Century Theatre nas| been designated as an air raid |shelter by the Council of Civilian/ Defense, Mr. Daigler pointed out| in his letter. The building is bullt; of reinforced concrete and steel, and the section under the balcony is well protected as any bomb would have to penetrate over three feet of concrete and steel. There are also several means of exit from this section of the theatre, he wrote. | Additional precautionary meas- ures include the installation of a light plant that automatically goes into action the second the light fails; fire exun((ushers and buckets of sand with shovels placed at all strategic points and' water lines placed on every floor of the building as well as the roof; | precautions have been made to notify the audiences at once if we have an air raid, air raid alarm | or blackout. Patrons will also be advised' as to what to do, if it will be necessary to leave the building or not, though the man- agement feels that they should re- main in the building, as it is an air raid shelter. As the 20th Century Theatre is a Red Cross station, it is well sup- | plied with all first aid equipment. t with sand -buckets, shovels and extra hose lines at various polnus of the building and a supply of flashlights is on hand for use in case of current failure; the theatre is also prepared to inform patrons of any alarms that may occur and The Coliseum Theatre is equipped | .- Mrs. Agnes Goodwin became the mother of a son at 10:20 o'clock last night in St. Ann’s Hospital, the baby weighing seven pounds, e]evenv ounces.
