Mathe- son ajready has acquired a host of new friends and has influenced Servicemen to come and enjoy the {Club even more than in the past. Alida has been in the service of USO for a year, acting as assistant director of its club in Pennsylvania. The National Office in New York recently assigned her to its Overseas Area in Alaska; and at least for a few weeks she will be with us at the local club before she is advised of her permanent While here she is thegretically going to learn from us just exactly how a USO ought but, confidentially, our local Staff is convinced already that she has brought to us so excellent a background and so much ability that in the apportionment of bene- fits tp be gained between Alida and SPECIAL! Inferesting ltems for Everybody Lebanon, | USO NEWS (the Club during this training per- {iod, Alida is very likely to come in | second best USO-NICE-TO-COME-HOME-TO | The long-awaited opening of the {Clubs dormitory took place last Saturday night. A dream in the |mind of ambitious Director Sid | Cowgill ever since the Club began |its operations on the ground floor of the building in December, the |dormitory has become a reality: and hereafter the dreaming (all | very pleasant too, we hope) can be |indulged in exclusively by the fel- llows upstairs. Very soon 40 beds il be @ lable; but to date less than half of them have been in |use, due to a delay in the arrival of the additional mattresses. Equip- ped with excellent springs, and with | fine sheets and blankets, the beds are said by all the men to be a | great bargain at forty cents, and |to call for a return visit as soon as 1])(;5&"}1(' Some night off in the dim {future when the ten thousandth Serviceman registers for the dormi- ory, doubtless the Club will make a special occasion of the event and lucky Number Ten Thousand will be awarded a free night's lodging That will be all very well; but we're disinclined to wait so long to pass out the credits. Right here and now let there be recorded for posterity the name of the Occupant of Dormitory Bed No. One—Soldier Jerry H. Dabkey, who once did all his sleeping at home in Berwyn, Ill. Honesty compels us to report that we charged Jerry the full price for his bed and that thus far he gained nothing but prestige in the matter. However, never shall it be seid that we are not sportsmen, so we make the following proposit- ion: If it happens that Jerry also is Number Ten Thousand, not only shall he enjoy a free bed that night but at the same time we will also refund him last Saturday's forty cents in full!
