Damaging Fires Shown In Film
KODIAK MIRROR

Two disasterous fires on the Naval Station were vividly pre- sented to members of the Kodiak Rotary Club in movie Tuesday noon during the Clubs luncheon at the 49 Room. The movie was pre- sented by Fire Chief T. McArthur of the station Fire Department.
 The first fire was that of the FRA building when it was so gut ted by fire that it was afterwards pronounced complete loss. This building, popular clubhouse in its time, was originally built by vol untary labor during Army days and was known as the Sargent Club. Scenes of fighting the fire in the Commissary-PX building across from the Civilian Club, were shown. A $455 ,OO0 loss resulted in this fire which occurred in 1859. The Kodiak Volunteer Fire De- partment assisted in controlling the fire from spreading.
 Rev. Lewis White was admitted as new member at a short cere- mony conducted by the president, Art Brooks. City Manager Bill Po- land spoke briefly on a vacation of land problem in connection with some Rotary Club owned land.
 There were several visitors pres ent at the meeting in addition to those mentioned. Among them were Harold Heglin, Roy Rickey and Robert Myer of New York.

GRATEFUL FOR CHRISTMAS
IT SEEMS THAT each Christine

IT SEEMS HAT each Christmas season becomes more
cherished than the last. Each year world events, including
those right here in these Islands, are so significant that a

greatest gift of all.
THESE ISLANDS are moving forward, and in such rapid
manner that all the changes would be difficult to recount
Our budget has improved, SO has our educational system.
Buildings are going up all around, the tourist trade is the
biggest ever, the airport is completed, and now being readed
for jet planes. Add to this the Frederiksted Harbor improve
