DAVIS PROPERTY
PURCHASED FOR
CHlLDREN'S HOME
Deal Completed on High
day-Rev. Baker Makes
Announcement

The Juneau Children's Home, OF
which Mrs. Lyle Johnson is founder
and matron, is moving next week
into the former home OF Capt.
James v. Davis on the Glacier
Highway.
Purchase of the Davis property
was completed within the past ten
days by Children of Alaska, Inc,
local non profit corporation found
ed in behalf of needy children in
Alaska.
According to the Rev. R. E. Bak-
err, president of the corporation,
gift of $1,000 was made to the cor
poration by Capt. Davis. Several
substantial local donations were re-
ceived by the corporation before,
of $50 and as much as 500 at
time, but Capt. Davis has set a
leading pace in his benevolence.
The corporation at one time SER
iously considered purchasing the
L. F. Morris property, further out
the Highway, which held an ad-
vantage Of greater acreage. Lack of
permission from the WPB for nee
,ssary wiring materials was one OF
the principal complications that
ct in to prevent the deal being
completed.
Financing largely from interested
persons outside, the Rev. Baker
states that the corporation wishes
to thank those of Juneau and vi
cinity who are sharing the finan-
cial burden of promoting the &C
tivity Of the group.
Children of Alaska, Inc, hopes
to soon establish a native home,
near to Juneau, that will comply
with Territorial standards of
health and sanitation. The Rev.
Baker states that while the group
does not wish to boast, they are
proud of the fact that, including
the purchase of the Davis property,
total of nearly $4,000 has passed
through the hands of the corpora
ton since it's formation last Sep
tember, all in the interest of AL
aska children The officers of the
corporation serve without renumer-
alton.
Members of the group, in addi-
ton to the Rev. Baker, are John I.
Conn, Vice. President, and the Rev.
A. L. Calame, Secretary Treasurer.
A dedication service at the new
home will be conducted Sunday af-
ternoon at 2 o'clock.

Grooming Tips
For The Girl
In Uniform
BY DONNA GRACE

THE GIRL in uniform, be
she WAC, WAVE. or Civilian
Defense Worker. must be
especially conscious of good
grooming. She should strive for
that well-scrubbed look that
comes from careful attention TO
hair, nails and makeup.
Makeup for service girls must
be perfect. They have no time
for any thing that cannot be
used easily and to the best ad-
vantage.
In the iipstick line the service
girl has a choice Of several of
the reds and natural rose tones,
but the garish purple shades
are definitely out.
Make This Test
As the mouth Is really the
most expressive feature, il must
be kept beautiful. If you have
any doubt about the importance
OF a pretty mouth. just make
this test. Do your hair and face
in the usual way but don't touch
your lips. Leave them without
a touch OF color and note the
effect.
Service girls should never use
eye makeup while on duty, but
the brows should be shaped and
kept az neat and attractive as
possible. When off duty the
girls should visit beauty salons
and have special messages and
hair shaping az usual
Cosmetic Needs
Then, too, they need plenty
of creams and lotions 10 repair
the effects of wind and weather.
A good hand lotion is an abso-
lutte must.
Many OF the girls use a good
foundation lotion as a beauty
aid and skin protector Some Of
the liquids are very easy 10 put
on and require little blending.
