Well Done
We think the Kediak police department deserves a bit of1
praise this week By putting in overtime, and on his own time,
Patrolman John Boucher was able to arrest one of the most
loathsome type of individuals that can infect a town.
Boucher caught a peeping tom right in the act. The po
liceman’s shift had ended and he was off duty but rather
than give up his surveillance of his susnect he spent hours of
his own time to protect the citizens of Kodiak.
The peep:ng tom he arrested had been jailed the night
before for indecent exposure on the main street and was free
on bail. He was roaming around in a residential neighborhood
at a late hour. Boucher’s long wait paid off when he caught
the man peering into a woman’s bedroom. i
Next week if we get a parking ticket we will probably
be back with the herd and darning the cops. However, this
week we are on their side and think the police department <
are deserving some praise. I

Info Sought On
June Brides
“June, the month of brides,
is over,” says James G. ,
Browne, manager of the Social I
Security F>'eld Office in Ju-j
neau. “Only the Bureau of j
Vital Statistics can tell us how
often during the month a Miss
became a Mrs. Actually we do
not care.”
‘ However, the SSA does
care if you change your name.
We want to know about it so
that we can change our re-1
cords and your card.”
A social security account is
something like a bank ac
count,” said Browne. “If it
belongs to Miss Jones, we can
not post credits to it for Mrs.
Smith. Unless we have been
officially informed; we really
do not know that Miss Jones
and Mrs. Smith are the same
person. We cannot credit Mrs.
Smith’s account since it was!
issued to Miss Jones.”
Browne was in Kodiak early!
this week on what he described
as a routine trip. E.W. Tail
man, Regional representative
of the Bureau of Old Age and
Survivors Insurance, accom
panied him here.
“It is very easy to change
your name in the records,”
Browne pointed out. A s mole
form is all that is required.”
He added that the forms
can he obtained at any SSA
field office or by writing to j
Social Security Administrtion, '
Box 1331, Juneau, Alaska.

HOW FIRE INSURANCE
FOR YOUR CHILD
Your child is safer in school to
day—because of the fire-safe
building code written by The
National Board of Fire Under
writers. Over 500 cities and towns
have adopted it. Several states
are using it as a model. And
thousands of copies are distrib
uted, as a public service, to indi
viduals and civic groups.
This is only one of die public
services performed by capital
stock fire insurance — a private
enterprise — of which the insur
ance agent is an important part.
His professional advice is yours
for the asking.
Phone me about your insur
ance—for, in these high-cost
days, too little insurance protec
tion for your home and belong
ings can be costly.
