Employed women should notily
the Federal Social Security ad
ministration when they marry so
their names can be changed on
the administration's record in our
central office, James G. Browne,
manager of the Social Security
administration, advised today.
If they will do this they will
make it easier for themselves and
the administration when the time
comes to file claims for old age
and survivor's insurance benefits,
’•Browne explained.
For the woman who marries
and wants to change her name,
the administration has provided
a special form, which she should
fill out, attach the social security
card bearing her maiden name
and send or bring the form to our
office.
We do not assign her a new
number, but issue a new card
bearing her present name and the
number that was originally as
signed to her. She then will have
only one social security number
during her entire lifetime. If she
had more than one number, she
might stand to lose her benefits.
The administration keeps all
information it receives from the
worker strictly confidential.
The worker may obtain further
information from the Juneau of
fice of the Social Security admin
istration located in the Seward
building or post office box 1331,
Juneau, Alaska, Browne stated.
Forms for changing names on
social security records may be
obtained from U. S. Commissioner
Dorothy Saxton in Palmer.
Roy Brock and Clayton Es
slinger flew over to Willow Run
early last Saturday morning for
a try at King salmon. They were
back in time for dinner that night
with a King salmon apiece and
a nice string of Rainbow trout
for Roy.

George Smalls Prospecting for
New Home After 36 Years in Alaska
The George Smalls took a not
so-small part of the Valley with
them as they drove out of town
*
early Monday morning for a des
tination uncertain
"We’ve sold out here lock,
i stock, and barrel**, he said before
he left. “But everyone says, we'll
I be back".
It was hard to believe that the
Smalls would not be back. After
having lived in Alaska for 36
years, arriving in Anchorage in
1915 and coming to Palmer in
1935, they had identified them
selves indelibly with the commu
nities they had helped to grow.
George’s contribution to the
Valley's growth was the down
to-earth business of land clear
ing. Operating with his own bull
dozing equipment, he had brought
into use large sections of the Mat
anuska valley for business, hous
ing and agriculture.
For those he left behind, he
had a message in poetry and
prose.
“I have certainly appreciated
the cooperation and business of
all associates in Alaska”, he said.
‘‘They’re all my friends. I’ve
worked for a lot of people around
here.
“When the gulden sun i* sinking.
And your heart from care is
free,
When of others you are thinking.
Will you sometime think of
me".
No discredit of Bob Klein's ar
tistry should be attributed to the
poetic farewell, George insisted.
The Smalls have been very ac
tive in the Northland Pioneer
Grange. George is a Past Master
He has also been a member of the
MEA board, the school board and
the Chamber of Commerce.
The Smalls leave behind them
in the Valley their daughter, Mrs.
Bert Stewart, a granddaughter,
Memory Stewart, and Mrs.
Small’s sister, Mrs. Art Stacey.
Southern Oregon, near the
Rogue river area, is a possible
spot in the Smalls’ prospecting
plans. They might stay there and
they might not. They just might
come back to Alaska.
Z's Move In
Two hours after the Smalls left,
Superintendent William T. Zah
radnicek and his wife were mov
ing their things into the house
vacated them. The Zahradniceks
had purchased it recently for
their home.
