Newcomers

Hullo. sailor. so this is Seattle,
the city of mountains, lakes. the
gateway TO Alaska and the Orient
into which you have come.
1t is also a city Of ships in the
making and Flying Fortresses and
a thousand other things made for
you and your comfort. So now to
show you around we begin with
First Avenue.
Clothes are something we can
not get along without in Seattle,
this is no south sea island. so ON
the corner of First and Union Is
Larsen's Clothing Store, supply
ing you with anything at all you
might need and there's no tell
ing what that might be. Just to
tip you off, you really need TO
wear a coat when you dance at
the Tnanon or else that uniform
The TrianOn is at 2ls Wall Street
and it's not hard to find after a
good dinner at the Pit. maybe,
right downstairs from the ". s. S.
club where a good glass of beer
will make you feel in the mood
for fun.
Warshall's is the place to go for
fishing tackle and camera supplies
as well as welding clothes for the
shipyard worker, for no sailor
needs that But fishing and cam
eras we'll it's all there at Warsh-
alrs and confidentially il looks to
us as if there was a larger supply
there than some of the places we
have been in and it's just handy,
too, on the corner of First and
Madison.
Flowers may be found at Sulli-
vans, 1902 Fourth Ave, to send
to your best girl, and a ride in a
Harvest Taxi, phone Main 1717.
If you are a seaman home again
to the wife and family, there's
sure to be lots you want to buy for
them Furniture for instance,
something new for that home of
yours. Furniture is not easy to
find these days, a good selection
that is why we recommend the
Arcade furniture store this week.
After a good look around up there
we saw that they had good ma
ny things we've been looking for.
The Arcade is just a little off the
beaten track, maybe that's why,
but then they are making a spe
cial effort to assemble the furni-
ture into groups that make shop
ping easier for your home. Seri-
ously, we found something there
we have been looking for for quite
a while. We mean it.
Hardware is hard to find, too,
in these wartime days, but the
Pacific Coast Hardware store at
1901 First Avenue still has some
of those things that you have
hunted and searched for. What a
relief it is to find such things If
your wife has had difficulty in
just the suit she wants
Arthur's Clothes for Women at
1016 Second Avenue carries beau
tifully fitting slack suits, as well
as tailored suits of Scotch wooden,
hand finished and fitted just for
her, These suits have that in de.
scribably expensive look which is
well, which is class, and they are
unbelievably reason
able.
OF course we don't need to tell
you about Barclays Rye except
that it's hard to get and easy to
take!
Now for a trip through the
mountains to Ellensburg if you
have a car an d have saved your
gas. There's a good place to stop
that's not so far Maybe you live
up that way It's the Cascade Ser
vice station offering something We
ry special in the way of service.
At the Cascade station they have
perfected a fine new re-alignment
service. Stop at the Cascade sta
ton if you go to Ellensburg.
BY this time, sailor, you've got
ten a good start and we hope
you're happy Here's to you, we
say, and to Victory.
