satisfaction and the landing ramp
is in bad condition.

By Mrs. Martin Olson

Mrs. Wenter Harvey was host. ess to members of the Wasilla Homemakers club at recent noon luncheon held in the church building.
 Miss Marilyn Johnson, home demonstration agent, was pres ent and gave a most instructive demonstration on sewing meth ods. Even seasoned seamstresses remarked that they had learned several new sewing tricks.
 Roll call for the day was an answer to the problem of ways of saving waste foods" Most practical of the ideas advanced was probably that which sug- gested, When you have scraps left over that the dog doesn't like and won't eat, then just fix them up into some fancy con- coction and feed them to your husband"
 New members welcomed into the club at this meeting were Mrs. Harold Harris, Mrs. J. LeVan and Mrs. Dan Hurst.
 The next regular meeting of the Homemakers will be a Val entIne party to be held at the Martin Olson home on Feb. 13 at 7:30 pm.

Store Door Smashed In Attempted Theft

The glass door at the front en- trance of Bert's drug store, was smashed sometime last Wednes- day evening or early Thursday morning. Apparently the work of sneak thieves, a heavy object was thrust through the glass near the latch. Evidently the robbers hoped the door was locked by only a night latch, and that it could be opened by reaching through to the inside and releas- ing the catch.
 Since the door was double locked, no further damage was attempted by the Would-be thieves.

 The actual steps leading to formation of a district were briefly outlined by MT. Caldwell. A petition is circulated calling for an election to decide the question.
