Dear Dribbles:
May I come in again and take up
small space once more? Enclos-
ed you will find my brother, Pfc,
Eugene r. Faucets new address.
Yes, know that / have been a
little slow in sending you this in
formation since Eugene has been
back in the States for sometime
after serving % months in the
North Pacific area. However, ]
will promise to do better the next
time.
My brother is expecting to have
change of address soon. will
write and tell you all about ii

Eugene's address is as follows:

Yours truly,

Dribbles wishes to thank you,
Mrs. Clarence Scuse, for having
sent in your brothers latest adj
dress. This was published in The
Smyrna Times under the date of
September 7th, 1914.
1t had been a long time since we
heard concerning this brother of
yours, and we were very glad to
know that he was well, still going
strong. Please pass the word
along to him that Dribbles sends
his best wishes and hopes that he
will have a successful military
career. No doubt, after spending
those % months up in the North
Pacific area, he was mighty glad
to get back to the good old U. S.
A. In fact, most of Our Boys are,
after spending nearly two years
overseas. Perhaps the fortunes of
war will not call Eugene out of
this country again during his term
of service. However, no matter
where duty calls, our very best
wishes will go with him. And
thanks for the promise to keep this
column informed of future changes
of address.

Thank you, Miss Malvina Stew
enson, for your letter, and con-
CALCULATIONS to your brother Fred
die for having been advanced to
the rank of Technician Fifth Grade.
We know that all Freddie's friends
will be pleased to know that he is
making good progress in his
Uncle's Army.
This report about mail falling off
so badly does not sound so good.
How about it readers Must a
fellow travel all the way over to
Italy, via North Africa, only to find
that his friends back home are so
contented with their own lot that
they neglect the one most import
ant thing to soldier serving over
seas-MAIL Well, if you have
been guilty on this score, please see
that this neglect is corrected
promptly. Freddie will be out
there waiting for your letters to
arrive. You must not disappoint
him further.
After all, you know that this lad
is out there pitching for the Home
Team. You may be sitting out
there in the left field bleachers-
you may have paid your way in to
see the game-but one thing most
sure, you're not out there taking
what comes like he is. You know
even a Home Town pitcher needs a
few rooters to help things along.
So folks, get busy and start the
letters moving over Freddie's way.
Who knows but that letters may
supply something which Our Boys
over in the European theatre of
war are waiting for to strike out
Hitler's gang of butchering rob-
bers. Our government is supply
ing the necessary implements of
war for the Knockout blow to the
Nazi's-they cannot supply letters
that's your job. Now, let's see
how well you do it. And, please
do not forget, there are millions of
Freddie's all over this world-just
waiting for mail call and the ar
rival of your letters.
Good luck To- Frederick w.
Stevenson. Well be pulling for
you every step of the way until
this European phase of the war is
over. Let's hear from you when
you have a moments time for that
purpose.

Your sons name was added to
Dribbles' Honor Roll under the
date of August 31st, 1914, Mrs. j.
P. Deacon. If you have The Smyr-

Due to wartime regulations we
could not print the entire address

did the next best thing possible,

anyone requesting it.
It would be nice if you had a bit
of spare time Mrs. Deacon, if you
would be kind enough to furnish
the editor of this column with
further information concerning
your son James. We would like to
know when your son entered the
Service, how long he has been
overseas, and the like. Just a
friendly newsy letter. At the same
time will you kindly give your
mailing address, and tell us if
James ever attended High School
here at Smyrna, Delaware. We
would like to know these things
for our records. Yes, and the next

Jap Mistake Says MagnuSOn

WASHINGTON Rep. Magnuson of Washington state this week told the House that the Japs made military mistake in seizing Kiska instead of Adak when they invaded the Aleutians.
 Why the Japanese didn't estab- fish themselves there is a military mystery. Possibly the best explana- ton is that for many years til Of our maps designated Kiska as a keep out" Naval reserve so the very subtle wty of thinking must have led them to Kiska instead of to one of our first potential bases nj the Aleutians.
 Magnuson made public a report to the House Napal Affairs Commit tee of his recent inspection for tha committee of defenses in the Aleu- tians and stid the Army air field at Adak was constsueted from former lagoon, discovered by the engineers and drained. They built a dam across the narrow entrance and now the water drains in or out and when the water is out it leaves a fine hard-surfaced field.
 Rep. MagnusOn-- praised the woris of the Army and Navy in constsuct- ing the Aleutian defenses. He said since the removal of the Japs, At tn should serve in the post war planning on American air routes to the entire Orient. He said the Navy has an excellent field there and hopes are. that with further devel- tpment, the Army will be able to share it's use. He recommended that the Naval air base at Sitka be re- duced in size, saying officers of the Army and Navy believe it is much too large and said the expenditure of money on 1t wan excessive and extravtgant." He als recommended that no new projects be started at Kodiak and asserted the war had moved westward" but said it would always be an important spot on the Aleutian air route.
 -Magnuson urged private air liies to continue and be used to furnish transportation from Seattle to Attu
 He asked that means be found to grant furloughs to the men who have been stationed many months in the Aleutians but said that des- bite the lack of recreatoOnal facil- ities, they seemed content and well cared for.

When such payment is made by the employer, the col eictor must give him a receipt for each tax paid and the amount thereof may be deducted from the employees wages.
 Any person who pays the tax when he is not liable therefore, or if it is paid by an employer for his employee when such employee is not subject thereto, has the right to claim refund of the a. mount paid; such person should first request the school tax cOllec- tor to make such refund and if this cannot be done, he should for ward such request to the Terri torial Treasurer at Juneau. Upon receipt of such request the Treas urer will investigate and if he finds that the tax was paid by mistake, will make the refund immediately. Remember that re- quest for refund must be made not later than 90 days after the end of the calendar year during which the tax was paid.
 The tax is payable by residents as well as non-residents. If the nonresident is merely a sight-seer or tourist he or she is not re- quired to pay the tax; but if he or she comes 10 the Territory for the purpose of engaging iR busi- ness or employment and actually does so, though not a resident, he or she becomes liable for the pay nient of the tax.
