Of This and That
By BETHA DIGREE
The buildings at the Baptist Mis
sion are glistening with fresh paint
these days. The Ecumenical Group,
service project workers who ar
rived here the latter part of June,
have been busy with their brushes,
and have given the buildings that
“new look” . . . Members of the
group also spent several days at
Ouzinkie, where they painted the
Mission home and chapel. The
young men and women in the
group are voluntary workers and
they pay their own expenses while
on projects.
The cocktail party given in
honor of Capt. and Mrs. Jacoby
and Capt. and Mrs. Lincoln Tues
day evening was a very enjoyable
function, but there was a sense of
sadness, too. Those who have
known the Jacobys’ will miss them
. . . They are both charming,
friendly people who have made
themselves a part of the commu
nity. We feel that Capt. and Mrs.
Lincoln, too, are the same sort
of people . . . and we welcome
them. Mrs. Lincoln, like Mrs.
Jacoby, enjoys beachcombing, so
she should be able to find a few
treasures on the beaches of Ko
diak Island . . .
In answer to our plea, a few
weeks ago, for some method of
eradicating horse-tail reeds, Mrs.
Shirley Younglove suggested cut
ting of the top of the reed and
dropping weed killer on the stalk.
After some discussion, it was de
cided that the use of an eyedrop
per would be best. By this method
the roots will be killed under
ground. We will tr* it as soon
as the rain stops falling for a few
hours (when we are not stuck at
our desk, of course) . . .
