loan is feasible. If you have not already signed an application and paid
your ^R.OO membership fee, will you please sign the form printed below and
mail it to. the COBBER VALLEY TELEPHONE ASSOCIATION, INC., at G-akona , Alaska,;
or give it to George Ashby, Jack Goddard, Fred Wells, "Si" Neelley, or Daphne
