Hoffman, received honorable mention: The answer to “What Can Be Done to Improve Juneau?" lies in the fact that to all of us Juneau is home. In building @ home, man’s first requirement is to make it live- able, To be liveable ‘it must be comfortable. To be comfortable it has to be attractive to himself, his tamily and to his friends and ac- quaintances. A Chamber of Commerce must first build a liveable city. It should back every movement to provide and improve city streets, water systems,| lights, means of transportation and other public utilities. Schools must be modern and sufficient. They must be well planned, far in advance of expected growth. Recreational facil- ities for the young, also for adults, are needed and must be provided to the fullest of our ability. Our Chamber of Commerce should be ever active; assume it is their _lduty to take not only an interest but action in everything and move- | ment that in any way tends to im- taken and presented by M garet Maynard; 9:15 p. fashjoned dancing in USO.
