‘JUSt A FEW LINES
On December 1st. the Anchorage Dairy
i closed the retell store In the front end
I cf the Dairy. A few years ago, when the
i Co-op was getting started, the retail
i store helped to Introduce "Matanuska
I Maid" products to the customers in An
chorage. Thousands of people will long
remember their first introduction to
"Matanuska Maid" Ice cream that was sold
over the counter there. Milk, butter
milk and cottage cheese also made their
i first anoearance there.
Ten years 030, when the first milk
; from the Matanuska Valley was delivered
I in Anchorage, it was distributed fron the
LPeterkin I airy on the east end of Fourth
Avenue. This was practically out of
town r.t that tine and it was soon de
cided that a new buildln.3 was needed
1 closer to the business district, so the
present Anchorage I airy Building was
built. The bullying has served, it's
purpose well, but it Is really too snail
now. This shows how Alaska is growing.

1 There should oe sone consolation in the
I fact that Palmer financed a trip to Wash
ington L.C. f )r two of ^ur citizens that
probably had a lot to do with the loca
tl n of the new Native Hospital in the
central part of Alaska. Every tine we
drive past the new nultl-nillicn dollar
bull din." we think what a fine thing we
were able t„ helo Anchorage accomplish.

The Alaska Head Commission has located
I r. crew of engineers in Palmer, who are
i :eln_* t- ’ce entered in sone survey work
| that nay enable Valley residents to save
: nine niles or nore on the road tc Anchor
age. '.Vo do not have any official report
' on this ratter. It is Just pure "Mukluk"
iso far, but we can dream, can't wel
'7e would like tc call your attention
to the fact that Christmas Presents can
be purchased in Palmer Just as cheap as
they can in Seattle. If you don't be
lieve us, then take ycur catalog to the
Trading Post and compare with prices
thr.er. Other Palner stores are giving
good values too. Donjt waste your tine,
buy in pr imer.
