NOTE TO RECORD PANS-The., last ship brought’in a raft of new records which .will
replenish the record racks during this week. Aclak is THE place to build an out
standing record collection. Perhaps you’ve npticed the prices— as little as
$2*25 .for. a, regular $3 selection.This low cost is available only at overseas
^changes due ‘to‘special overseas rates .No place in the states can sell- records
at such economical prices and break even. A music library is a delightful luxury
wherever,you are.- an Adak it’s practically a necessity. .
FASHION’NOTES,'— Stateside —.skirts are shorter, platclothes more colorful,
cotton's-fresher looking" than ever in pretty pastels*M,,lilac and mint and pale
gold*' Home decor grows more elaborate by the day-patterned wallpapers, ,elegant
draperies and highly burnished, deep-toned woods. The warm, early-American look
is still a top favorite, ‘ but moving over a bit for the opulence of the Orient,
Ell of which is interesting information to file away for the. future in another
lime, another place. : * " ’ . ^
