ONLY BO DAYS LEFT UNTIL CHRISTMAS!! !! Time flies...it’s later than you. think....
and all that jazz. The point is, Christmas IS getting near and before you know
it, unless you act now, you will become a member of that vast legion of - unhappy
people...THE LAST MINUTE SHOPPERS, Nothing is more frustrating than to make that
last minute dash to the store, only to find that the early birds got all the worms.
Of course, we don't stock worms, but we do have a fine line of toys, holiday dec
orations; cards, etc., in the warehouse now. TOYLAND will open baturday, 13 Oct
ober, in the Main Retail store. Bring the kids and be the first in your block to
say, nMy shopping is done".
BEAUTY BITS The ladies on Adak are no different than the ladies anywhere else.,..
They want to look their very best. The Navy Exchange Beauty Shop is staffed and
equipped to help them do just that. Call 515J for appointments. For the informa
tion of anyone who doesn’t know, the staff members of the Beauty Shop are: Mrs.
Mary Barber, Mrs. Betsy McDoniel, and Mrs. Arcely Bernardino. Mrs. Bernardino is
available for haircuts, shampoos, sets and manicures only on afternoons and Sat
urdays .
me Deaui,y snop nas, in x-ne past, soiu certain items vnair sprays, tints, etc.;to
customers as ' retail items. It is not the intention to entirely discontinue this
practice, however, the shop is stocked as a SERVICE activity and not as a retail
* sales outlet, and therefore, sales of this nature will, in the future, be on an
- ’in excess’- basis. In other words, 'if more hair spray is in stock in the beauty
shop than is required to take care of appointments, then hair spray may be pur
chased from the shop, dtherwise not.
Mrs, Barber, Mrs. McDaniel and Mrs, Bernardino love to hear the phone ring for
appointment’s. They would also like to hear it ring if, for some unforseen reason
you cannot keep your appointment. Please call as soon as you can if you find out
you ’can’t make it’.
GOOD NEWS for all the drivers of ’old clunkers’...40 weight oil is now back in „
stock at ^the Exchange Garage.guaranteed to take the aeath rattle out of that
tired old mill and make it sound like a new Cadillac. (Almost, anyway) Have you
noticed the nip in the air? Anti-freeze tine is here and the garage has plenty

SANTA: Old Saint Nick is pretty busy in his toy shop so he couldn’t break away

‘date' so* th‘e kiddies can let him know what they want for Christmas and have their
pictures taken.
HAVE YOU SEEN the new Special Order section? We feel that this is a very worth
while addition to the main retail store and should make the customer's special
order problems much easier to solve. Drop in for a look-see, won’ t you?
