JHS FLIES FLAG
AS EVIDENCE OF
WAR BOND MARK


Beneath the American Flag on the
Juneau High School building, Is
flying the Schools at-war Flag, Wis
ible evidence that over 80 percent
of the high school students are buy
ing War Stamps and Bonds regular
ly each month. During the month
of January this year, the high school
earned the privilege of flying the
flag, and has maintained its per-
centages each month since then
Owing to the weather, the flag has
never before been displayed out of
doors, Also, its appearance today
marks the opening of the Seventh
War Loan campaign.
Juneau can well be proud Of its
high school students who are setting
"a fine example by their consistent
support of the War Finance pro-
gram. Emphasis is placed on regu-
lar participation rather than amount
of money invested in the school pro-
gram, although, of course, the larg-
er the amount, the more the children
are saving for their futures.

LADY IN DARK"
At 10Th CENTURY
HAS THREE STARS

The Moss Hart play, Lady in the
Dark" that ran for three years on
Broadway. and toured the country
with outstanding success, is at last
on the screen, 1t opened last
night at the Goth Century Theatre
with Ginger Rogers. Ray Milland,
Warner Baxter, Jon Hall, Mischa
Auer and others bringing it to brill
liant Technicolor life in produc-
ton the Paramount Studio has every
right to boast as it's best to date.
Lady in the Dark" tells the I'M
usual story of womans repressions
and their effects on her liit. Ginger
Rogers is seen in the role created
on the stage by Gertrude Lawrence,
that of Liza Elliott, successful editor
of a high-class fashion mag. Liza
finds herself slipping in her work
and unhappy in her personal life.
The psychoanalyst whom she is in
duced to visit, reaches into her past
and into her dreams for an ex-
PLANTATION of her mental turmoil and
comes up with some very interest
ing revelations.
Lizas dreams ARE interpreted on
the screen in a overwhelmingly beau
tiful and ingenious way. How they
land her, finally in the arms of Ray
Milland, whom she thought she de-
tested, instead of married to War
ner Baxter or Jon Hall makes excit-
ing and colorful seeing.
