GIVEN under my hand the seal of the Probate Court at Juneau, Al- aska, March 22nd, 1944. FELIX GRAY, Commissioner antl ex-officio Probate Judge, Juneau Precinct. First publication, Mareh 23, 1944. Last pubication, April 18, 1844, T T i —— 'Please RETURN Your Milk Bottles Promptly * Juneau Dairies, Tnc: ‘entire Club Staff | We have just made reference to {vall” the new men; what we really imean is “each” of them. To us here "in Juneau there is a difference, and 1it is significant. ‘Our welcome is to each individual man as an individ- lual. And that is the reason why we ;make such a point of learning a | fellow’s first name or his nickname |as quickly as possible. Until he has |become Bob, or Kenn, or Tony, or | Mike, or John, or “Slim,” or “Fris- co,” or “Jersey,” it is a much more |difficult thing to make him begin {to feel really comfortable and as {*belonging,” in any fair sense of the word, to our club. And it is exactly | this, and nothing less, which the | Juneau USO is eager to accomplish |for each serviceman (without ex- {ception) who walks into the club- | nouse. In the past two weeks—especially during the past three days—more inew fellows have been welcumed here than was the case for many months. Then, too, & number of the soldiers and coastguardsmen who once were stationed in this area, recently have been reassigned here or are home now on furloughs. The result is that the clubhouse has been humming with activity that at times surpasses anything we've experienced in nearly a year. The staff (Alida Matheson, Mary McCormack and Zach Gordon) will consider it a personal favor if each of ‘the newcomers will help them rapidly to learn his name an@ to discover how the USO may most pleasantly serve him as an indiv- idual. And they express the earn- est hope that each of the fellows returning to Juneau may find the club an even friendlier spot than it was when he previously visited it. THANKS FOR THE COMPLIMENT “Good-bye and good luck—and be sure to let us know if there is any way in which you think we may be helpful to you while you’re away.” How many times we've used almost these very words (and meant them exactly that way, too) in bidding a reluctant farewell to our friends of the Armed Forces! We've hoped that some day they'd be returning to the Club; and in the meantime we've been eager to be as useful as possible. For example, a fellow may recall seeing the “Al- Club but forgot to take some with hn}ne for him. Or maybe he will be at a lonely outpost and will wish us to send him some books and games, or it may be that when someone’s birthday or other anni- Versary is approaching he will find it ‘a ‘convenience if we go to the local stores and buy an appropriate gift for the occasion. It always is good to feel that.the USO is rendering a bit of special |service to another individual. It is {particularly pleasant when this can be done for- men whose needs are acute because they are so far from Juneau. So we expect to keep on |repeating our invitation in the abave {form — with, however, just ONE QUALIFICATION! Yes, fellows, we appreciate the compliment you've been paying us. But we'll have to admit reluctantly that we're humsn and that therce are limits to what even the Juneau USO can do. Thanks for asking us, |dreams of the lucky day when he'll| be getting his furlough or leave.| So it's only reasonable to expect.i the ‘same day-dreams in the case| of a hard-working ' Patroness ' or| IG8O girl. | | All of which is preliminary to ex- | {tending best wishes for one of our Patronesses while in the South. She is Mrs. Frank Boyle, who will' be| salling withir. a few days for a| | visit with he. mother in Victoria, | |B. C. | 8o many friends of the USO inl Juneau and Douglas have helped us frequently that it is difficult to pick any one individual as stand-| ing at the very top of the list of Patronesses. But if such a list were | to be made up, we are certain that: Mrs. Boyle would be either at the top or at least tied for first place with not more than one or twp others. A tireless worker in our) canteen for months, a hostess to the Forum Club, and a constant source of friendly inspiration to! the servicemen anc the members lof our staff. Mrs. Boyle will be keenly missed every day of her mb—K sence.
