RO INSUN | Based on stories by Oscar Wilde, | Laslo Vadnay and Ellis St. Joseph, | “Flesh and Fantasy” is said to| blend three dramatic episodes with | novel effect. Ernest Pascal, Sam- | uel Hoffenstein and Ellis St. Jo- seph wrote the screen play which | is declared to be a remarkable con- | tribution to movie literature. Fact and fancy are mingled in fascinat- | ting manner as separate trains of human events overlap through cir-| culstances and logical coincidence. | 4 BENCHLEY [DETLa SPOMWINR [ GU/ARDSMAN ON TADSTIVRER| FAR NORTH DUTY ABOARD A COAST GUARD CUTTER SOMEWHERE IN THE‘ FAR NORTH (Special) — Coasty Guardsman Willlam H.

When the Coast Guard ship ar- rived at the port early in the morning, it was met by natives| who paddied out in their oominks‘l (skin boats) to greet the visiting | sailors. The smiling natives told the crew they were the first white men to visit the village in almost | a year, and proceeded to give them | a welcome to fit the occasion. Eskimos dressed in animal skins still smelling faintly of their for- mer tenants set up stands where| all types of carved ivory were bar- | tered for candy and chewing gum. Shouts of “Me like candy. You |want trade?” echoed throughout the =~ | tiny community. l[‘ In the afternoon, the command- * ling officer of the ship showed an S ‘Amerlcan made motion picture to CARO TRANSFER | " min As night fell and the cutter pre- HAULING and CRATING | pared to depart, the natives bade | goodbye to the Coast Guardsmen DIESEL, STOVE, CRUDE OIL Phone 344 Phone 344 in Pidgin English, “White man good fellow.

Less precipi- tation was recorded that month at both the city and airport offices than during any September on record since 1926. While the air is of fall weather and picnics are not so prevalent, twice as much sun- shine was recorded this year as| compared with last year, with one| day of 100 per cent sunshine and six days with over 50 per centl being recorded. There were six| days during the month on which no precipitation was recorded and one day on which there wasn't a cloud in the sky and five days on which one-half or less of the sky was covered with clouds. Maximum wind velocities for a 5-minute period were 25 miles or more per hour on two days and| the average velocity for the month was 6.9 miles per hour with a pre- vailing direction from the north.

'HIGH WING PREVAILS | "BOMBER'S MOON" | IS THRILL FEATURE If you're looking for an adven- ture film—chock full of thrills and suspense—you'll do well to take in “Bombers Moon,” the new 20th Century-Fox hit at the 20th Cen- Itury Theatre The theme is well-chosen, timely versal film described as a x-adxcalibeconnnp cooler with the comingand admirably worked out: An American bomber, after completing its mission over Germany, is shot down in German held territory. The pilot, George Montgomery, still in the plane, sees his younger bro- ther, the bombardier, helplessly drifting to earth, machine-gunned by a Nazi flyer. The plane cracks- up and Montgomery, only slightly injured is capturtd and placed in a prison camp. Here with the aid of a Russian doctor—none other than trim Annabella—he effects an es- | cape i Their tortuous progress, replete | with unsuspected pitfalls, is brought | before your eyes. From the camp they go to the city of Frankfort— | then down the Rhine to Holland | and finally . . . well, to say more would tend to spoil your enjoy-| ment of the picture. But it is, with- | out a doubt, one of the most excit- ing pictures of the year—the ten- sion mounts with every passing | scene as the inhuman efficiency of | the Gestapo drag-net closes in on the hunted couple. | FILE 'OR DIVORCE A divorce has been filed in the office of the Clerk of the United States District Court by Ada B.| Roberts from Ralph L. Roberts. | Last month a brief description of | the wooden shelters which are used | to expose the thermometers which | record the measurement of the! temperature of the air was given. ! ‘The measurement of temperature is made by the use of tested ther- mometers. The maximum tempera- |an-hour gale was blowing off Cape |voted to draw up a protest of the | | | | ture is recorded on the maximum thermometer. The thermometer is filled with mercury and resembles a fever thermometer in construc- tion. The minimum temperature is recorded on a thermometer filled with alcohol and is called a mini- mum thermometer. A third type of thermometer known as an exposed thermometer is filled with either alcohol or mercury. By placing aj piece of linen tubing over the bulb] of one exposed thermometer and wetting the cloth with pure water and comparing the readings of this thermometer with a second expot thermometer, the amount of mois- ture in the air can be obtained. This comparison is made after whirling to cause evaporation of | the water on the tubing placedl on the figst thermometer. | A continuous record of tempera- ture is made on a calibrated sheet | which is placed on a revolving | drum. This instrument is known as thermograph. ROY JACKSON IS HERE; | IS TO PROCESS CASES | ON WAGE VIOLATIONS Roy E. Jackson, Chief Enforce- ment Attorney, War Labor Board, has arrived in Juneau from Fair- banks to process an accumulation of | cases involving violations of the| wage stabilization regulations by employers in Juneau and vicinity. Jackson advised that while at Fairbanks he disposed of thirty cases | where employers were operating in violation of the regulations; that these cases were disposed of by settlement of the violations by stip- | ulations with each employer. That | approximately $90,000.00 in pen-| alties or disallowantes for income tax purposes were imposed against employers there; that a number of | cases remain to be disposed of and | will be considered by the Enforce-| ment Division at a later date, when | investigations have been completed. Jackson advised that he would be | glad to confer with all employers who have made wage adjustments to employees which have not been approved by the War Labor Board | and who are desirous of clearing up | their possible violations of the wage | stabilization regulations. He can be reached at the War Labor Board | OVER ALASKA SECTION The fall weather has hit, coming in with that storm yesterday.
