Her lamp SAVE THIS PUZZLE AND SUBMIT IT WITH THE WEEKLY SET OF ALASKAGRAMS 43 TO 48 WHAT TO DO TO WIN Here’s how you take part In this big opportunity! Every issue this newspaper will publish Alaskagrams in consecutive order, six each week for 12 weeks—a total of 72 Alaska- grams. Each Alaskagram is a group of scrambled letters which form mean- ingless words or a mnonsensical phrase. After an Alaskagram is unscrambled the letters form the name of a place in Alaska; how- ever, there is one superfluous letter —an extra, additional letter which is not needed to form the word. v v v v | All you do is re-arrange the let- ters to form a single word which is the name of a place in Alaska, and you also show which is the extra letfer. For example, the phrase “FOR A CHANGE"” when it is un- scrambled equals “ANCHORAGE” plus the extra letter F. Just remember that all place- names consist of only one word— and remember to show the extra letter. There is only ome correct answer to each Alaskagram. RADIO LOG EINY Alaska Broadcasting Oo. C.B.

A small log cabin was the centerpiece on one of the tables, commemorating Lincoln’s birthday, a double red heart over the center table filled with the little red buddy poppy symbolized Valen- | tines day and poppy day. A small tree covered with red cherries and a small hatchet symbolized George Washington’s birthday. The speak- er'’s table was centered with a small | white cross covered with poppies and small bunches of poppies were | scattered along the table. Mrs. John McCormick, President of the Auxiliary welcomed the | guests, and presented the officers | serving with her.
