With A&P
Yes, we want our APP competitors 70
stay in business on their present scale
because we know what it would mean
TO the American people without them.
We are only one store and are striv-
ing TO serve our community with GOOD
food at low prices. but the A&P Is a
nationwide organization SERVING The
American people everywhere with
good food at low prices.
Destroying the A&P would mean elm.
inatine competition nationally in the
food field which every poor man knows
consumes the major portion of his
salary.
We congratulate the A&P for a lob
we'll done. Keep up the fight.
We welcome any fair competition
which helps US bring lower food prices

COMMUNITY CENTER AT
TEEN AGE CLUB WELL
KNOWN, ESTABLISHED

Growing cut Of two provisions OF
the charter for the Teen Age Club,
the Tuesday night Community Cen
ter at the club has been held for
over two and a half years.
Those two provisions are Ito work
comparatively with adults in joint
enterprises leading to community
betterment" and ito help young
people and adults better to under
stand each other"
The teen-agers have been donat-
ing the club house to the adults one
night a week at no expense to the
adults. This recreation program
that adults of the community have
been sharing has been on modest
scale but the program has grown
into very popular enterprise. On
Tuesday nights attendance at pres
ent ranges from rs to 100. The
youngest is in the late teens and
the oldest in or near the 80s. 1t is
hoped and believed that the at
tendance will be doubled by aut-
umn.
The main form OF entertainment
for the Tuesday night programs has
been square dancing to an old time
fiddle and piano. OF late, the juke
box with square dance recordings
has also been used. Throughout.
the evening other forms of enter
tainment are pool, ping pong, cards,
various table games, and after the
square dancing, dancing to the juke
box
The man who played fiddle for
the old time dances is Ed Mcintyre.
At the piano have been Mesdames
Ethel Jones, Carl Collen, Elizabeth
Hughes, Ray Nevin, and Will Reedy,
and Misses Ruth Brooks and Dor
ianne Barnes. Square dance call
ers have included Art Van Hum
beck, Ensign Dutch" Batdorf, Will
Reedy, Dan Norris, Carl D'Epiro,
Ray Nevin, Frank Stragier, and
Lester Linehan.
Everyone is especially grateful
for the remarkable leadership of
Will Reedy whose coming to Jul
neau created such intense interest
in square dancing.
