The annual cold and flu epidemic

In many respects, Bogeaus, in his

SANTA CLAUS GETS
 SPECIAL REQUESTS
 FROM TOY CENTER

A special request has been made to Santa Claus, through the Com munity Toy Center here, for a mans bathrobe. medium-size, and for a subscription to the Alaska Life magazine.
 The bathrobe, which will be very acceptable if it is in good condi- tion even though used, is for a hospital patient who is badly in need of robe and will be very happy to receive one.
 Then there is a young Alaskan boy who is at present on q farm in Washington, where he says heI is quite happy, learning to break horses and do all kinds of farm work" but he misses Alaska very much. Since it will be some time before he will be able to return to his home town, he thinks it would be wonderful if Santa Claus would only send him the Alaska Life magazine.
 AS the Community Toy Center is not occupying a building or store room for the project this year, headquarters have been established at the American Red Cross office in the Alaska Light and Power Company Building. Donations may be left there, or arrangements can be made to have them called for by telephoning 883. Everything for the Christmas project is to be col lected and taken to the American Legion Dugout the weekend before Christmas, where women from the various organizations and the Vel fare Board will spend Friday and Saturday sorting, wrapping and packing the gifts.

Canteen Girls Play Big
Sisters To The Yanks

divide into shifts and meet the
trains at Parsons to dispense do
nuts, apples and matches. On Sun
days they invite the boys to their
homes for dinner.
The canteen orchestra which is
supplied by the girls contribu-
tons can play its most romantic
music but there is no cuddling or
smuggling.
We've discovered a lonesome
boy is happiest when we ask him
to talk about his family. So we
concentrate on his mother, sister,
sweetheart or wife" says Alice.
One thing Alice has noticed is
that the boys want girls to look
feminine. She says:
'All this bobby sock and sweat
er talk is lot of hooey-the boys
don't even want to dance with a
girl who doesn't look frilly.'
After the dances, to avoid any
coupling off, the girls and boys
leave in groups. This was the
agreement the hostesses made in
the beginning and they stick to it.
The only trouble with that, says
Alice, is that she's gone out on
nothing but group dates since
she's grown up. She says:
when the war is over and I
get a chance to 60 out on a sin
gle date, I don't think I'll know
how to act.'

The British and Americans were
