Of This and That
By BETHA DJGREE
W* may be far behind the
latest fashions as shown by
the House of Dior in Paris
recently, but the above - the
kneecap length skirt, as
designed by Yves Saint-Laurent
leaves much to be desired. To us,
it is one of the most unattractive
styles since the ’20’s. The sacks
and the trapeze dresses were
shapeless, and very few women
could wear them well, but we
shudder when we try to visualize
millions of knees . .. knobby knees
... fat knees . . knock-knees . . .
scrawny knees . . . being displayed.
So. we suppose we will just have
to be unfashionable until the trend
changes. (Quickly, we hope) and
knees are again out of sight. We
do not object from any moral view
point . ... just prefer ugly objects
hidden as much as possible.
Mrs. Dorothy Albrecht went to
Anchorage Monday for medical at
tention, returning Tuesday . . .

A reunion between two brothers
who had not seen each other for
eight years took place Tuesday
morning when Steve Helgason of
Vancouver, British Columbia, Can
ada, arrived to spend his holidays
with his brother, Kris, and family
at Terror Bay. The flight from
Vancouver was the first tiue Hel
gason had ever flown, and he found
the Alaskan mountains awe-in
spiring.
We could almost wish for a
snowfall to hide all the debris in
the vacant lot next to the Kodiak
Cleaners, and the weeds in the
cemeterys . . . Wonder what sort
of impressions the visiting news
paper editors will carry away with
them after their tour of Kodiak
on Monday? Perhaps Kodiak
should have more than one com
munity clean-up each year to make
Kodiak the attractive town it could
be through the. combined efforts
of all the residents . . . renters
as well as homeowners*...
Alf, Maxine, Tommy and Sheri
Madsen returned Wednesday from
a ten-day vacation on the Main
land. They first spent a few days
in Anchorage, then went to the
Kenai Peninsula where they visit
ed the Mark Chisum family at
Kenai. They also saw the Jack
Hinerman family, and George
Root, who are homesteading near
Kenai. “Good weather, lots of
fun,” according to Alf . . .
Poison Family To
Leave Tuesday
Mrs. Kay Poison and daughters,
Pat and Arline, who have been
visiting Mr. and Mrs. Earl Webber
the past month, will leave Tuesday.
They will fly to Anchorage, where
they left their car, and return to
their home in Torrance, Califor
nia, via the Alaska highway.
“We were pleasantly surprised
when we saw the beautiful foliage
and flowers here,” commented
Mrs. Poison. “We had thought that
it would be rather barren and
desolate, but now we know it cer
tainly isn’t.”
Recipe Of The Week
In Rolls Tuna
Tuna salad in a bun is fun, especially in hot weather and
where children are involved. Somehow buns say picnics, and when
they are filled with universally liked tuna, both the mood and
food are right for summer.
By keeping a can or two of tuna in the refrigerator as a staple,
you have the start for truly appealing summer salads and sand
wiches. The tuna salad, in a bun or no, makes an excellent lunch
eon or supper dish. It’s hearty and yet provides a pleasant lift on
. a hot day.
_ Canned tuna is a protein food of superior quality. Its B vita
mins and such essential minerals as calcium, phosphorus, iron,
copper and iodine are important in the diet of growing children
and full grown adults.
