No. two exceptions. There was
also a corporal from Brooklyn in

SORRY, SMITH GIRLS:
Through the years, this depart
ment has become a kind of male
auxiliary to. the Smith and
Wellesley College clubs. Natural
ly with that kind of background.
they are capable of solving most
of their problems. but not all.
That's where we come in.
This afternoon. in case you
did not know. the Smith girls
are having a famous heads hat
auction at the Potomac school.
1t is to raise money for the
scholarship fund.
Because she was i'll. laryngitis,
the Smith girls were hestitant
about approaching Lisa Kirk.
They did, however, want a Lisa
Kirk hat. if she had one to
donate. Would we mind asking
her, since we were having a
luncheon date with Miss Kirk?
Naturally we wouldn't mind.
Well, we did ask and we dis
covered something that might
give pause to Lilly Dache, John
Fredericks and, for all we know,
the Knoxes.
"Gosh," Miss Kirk said, II
haven't a hat with me. I try to
travel as light as possible, gowns
for a date like the Statler make
you feel like a circus. Then.
again, since my work is at night
and my sleep is by day. I can get
by better without hats than any
thing. "
And that is why one Of our
most dramatic failures is Lisa
Kirk hat for. Smith Colleges

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Dear Editor,
 October is. the birth month of
 Juliette Lowe, the Founder of the Girl Scout movement in the Unit
 ed States. We wish to take this op-
 portunity to tell you something of
 the work we-are doing for the
 scouts here in Kodiak and to ask
 for your support.
 The present movement in Ko-
 diak is less than two years old, but
 the town now has four Brownie
 Troops and four Intermediate
 Scout Troops. There are two new
 Brownie Troops and Senior troop
 in the process of being organized.
 This rapid growth has rather over-
 whelmed the Community Commit
 tee, which is composedpof all adults
 registered with Troops or actively
 interested in the welfare of the
 girls. The committee pays for in
 surance on all girls and leaders
 during scout activities, contributes
 to the day camp, both time and
 money, trains leaders and co-lead-
 CTS In addition it arranges, and
 sometimes supplies refreshments
 for activities involving more than
 one troop, or all the troops, such
 as the annual Court of Awards.
 Our most vital need is for a
 building of our own where we can
 store supplies, equipment and re-
 ference books for the use of all, as we'll as a place for meeting. We have petitioned the school board for the. use of extra Quonset huts. If we are granted permission to use the huts, there will be utilities to pay for as well as paint and
 lumber to fix them up. Also we
 are very anxious to be able to buy ,sometools for more advanced craft
 work than has been possible in the k past, and some books of crafts skill; games and songs. M q It would also be a tremendous. | help if we could keep small sup ply of necessities, such as. hand books and pins, on hand, as you know how slow orders are in reach ing Kodiak. x. .-s es- Then too~the troops also need some funds. Each new troop starts out with nothing and it takes a good many weeks for ten cent dues to add up. Therefore it has been our practice to try and start out new troops with small treasury and give additional assistance if the need arises. 4a < Support does not necessarily
 mean financial support, though we do need that too Support can mean encouragement, or providing
 opportunities for Community Ser vice, or just thinking of us when
 you have left over materials, paints, second hand tools and the 2 like.
 Yours very truly,
 I Girl Scout Community Com : mittee of the City of Kodiak Sally Ramaglia, Secretary

UNEMPLOYMEMNT CLAIMS DOWN FROM LAST YEAR

Net benefit payments from the Unemployment Compensation fund
 for the first nine months of 1855 ,totaled $5,915,950.91 which is S1O4,O19.35 less than the $6,019,- ,79O,26 paid during the first nine months of 1854. This is the first ptime this year that benefit pay .ments for the year to date are less than they were as of the same date year age. .. Benefit payments for the first
 calender quarters experience un- eder the new benefit formula :
 namely, July, August and Septem- bere were $23O, ,861. g, which
 is approximately $36O, ,O0O less than the $591, ,592.82 expended for the same three months in 1854. This decrease of approximately 6Oqo is primarily due to an approximate
 50% decrease in claims for unem-
 ployment insurance received dur ing this period. It is obviously diff ficult to predict how long this de- crease in claims will continue.
