 MRS. H0LzHEIMER
 IS HELD TODAY
Many Attend Services al Holy Trinity Cathedral for
 Beloved Resident

Many friends gathered in Holy Trinity Cathedral at II o'clock this ! forenoon to pay their final respects to Mrs. Georgia Holzheimer, who died early Sunday morning after a brief illness.
 The Rev. c. E. Rice, Dean of the church of which Mrs. Holzheimer had long been a member, conducted the beautiful Episcopal funeral service. Though he said no eulogy need be paid Mrs. Holzheimer, whose fine character and good works were known by the entire community, Dean Rice paid sincere and high tribute to the splendid woman who had contributed so much to human ity during her long and active life as citizen, wife and mother
 Welfare Duties
 Though he did not enumerate in detail the many organizations, both charitable and civic, in which Mrs. Holzheimer contributed so much, Dean Rice mentioned her tireless work as Chairman of the Welfare Committee of the Senior Trinity Guild, which was done without pub licity and often without the know ledge of those whom she helped.
 Mrs Crystal Snow Jenne sang Crossing the Bar and God of the Living" during the services and Jackson Rice, who accompanied her on the organ, played Abide With Me-" and two Resurrection hymns.
 Rites at Grave
 Following the church ceremonies, final services were conducted by Dean Rice at Evergreen Cemetery where interment took place in the Masonic plot.
 Mrs. Holzheimer is survived by her husband, Judge William A. Holz- heimer, daughter, Mrs. Mary Cath crime Gregory and granddaughter, Mary Allerton Gregory, all of whom reside in Juneau; a sister, Mrs. Sarah Collins, of Salt Lake City, and two granddaughters, Samuela and Gloria Gregory, who live in California.
 Active pallbearers were Russell Maynard, Walter Sharpe, Stanley Grummett, J. w. Leivers, James Mc- Naughton and George Alexander.
 Those serving as honorary pall- bearers were Gov. Ernest Gruening. J. A. Hellenthal, E. L. Bartlett, Col. Roy Riegle, George A. Parks, J. F. Mullen, Judge George F. Alexander, William T. Mahoney, H. R. Wander Leest, George w. Folta, J. J. Con- nors, Frank A. Boyle, R. E. Robert son, H. L. Faulkner, Oscar G. Olson, John Mccormick and Wellman Hol- brook.

JUNEAU SCHOOL TEACHERS DIG
 UP DIRTY WORK

It all began back before school started this year, when as part of the preliminaries to opening day, A. B. Phillips, superintendent of schools, arranged to have the win dows of the buildings washed.
 He found two willing boys, for mer students who were home for the summer. The scaffold was raised to the first windows, and the work began.
 But while the boys were willing, the weather wasn't. It rained. It rained. It continued to rain. The windows went unwashed. Eventual ly came the time when the boys had to leave for the south to at- tend college.
 Then the trouble really got un- der way. Nobody wanted to wash windows. One after the other, workers threw in the sponge, and said Let George do it."
 George wouldn't do it. But, by golly, Hank and Harold would.
 So, if one of these days, Ju- neau residents note two of the faculty members of Juneau High School, notably, Henry Harmon and Harold Roth, perched on scaffold up the side of one of the school buildings willingly scrubbing away, they'll know that the two have not been denoted, but are doing their part to help out on the labor shortage.

BUSINESS GOOD
 IN KODIAK SAYS
 DR. R. |. CARLSON
Residents of Westward Community Not Appre-
 hensive About War

Dr. Rae Lillian Carlson, local optometrist, returned to Juneau yes- terday on the Woodley plane from Anchorage. Dr. Carlson had been to Kodiak and planned to return on August 10, but because of bad weather, there was no plane traffic between Anchorage and Kodiak from August 6 until Tuesday, Aug ust 18.
 Asked about conditions in Kodiak, Dr. Carlson said everyone was busy and business was very good. On account of the difficulty in obtain ing supplies, there is no building or repairing going on in Kodiak. The town is widening and graveling the Missio nRoad, but only little of this work at time can be done.
 (One paragraph deleted by cen- sor).
 The people of Kodiak are not any more apprehensive about the war situation than the people of Juneau" Dr. Carlson went on to say. Tn spite of an article in Los Angeles paper to the effect that Kodiak was bombed, this was not true; there has been no bombing or attack of any kind on Kodiak. "
