of milk at S cents per arc served
daily across tn fountain bar.
I'ractically 600 cups of coffee
pre consumed nvht along with
it. The kids buy nickle pack
ages of cookies and munch them
down with their coffee or milk.
Now you take beer. You tak(
it. We clou t use n. nui up
parently the marines du because
thev take the caps off some 1200
bottles per day. The beer gar
den is open daily from 4 to 9
p. m., except on Wednesday,
which is liberty day, Saturday
and Sunday, when the doo
open from 1 to 9. Ten cents per
bottle. To go along with their
suds they swisn aown puimu
chips, cheese or crackers. All
this stuff is available at the
bar. Tables fill the beer garden
room and there is one of those
music box things all decorated
up in red and yellow.
Gift Buvars
Marines, according to the
Sgt., arc terrific gift buyers.
Especially gifts with the marine
corps insignc. Lockets, com
pacts, pins, rings ana stuff like
that. And they want good mer
chandise. Religious medals and
rosaries are in demand and
packages go home to mothers,
wives and swtethearts day in
and day out. The marine is an
inveterate letter writer. He
buys from S00 to 60u magarines
a month and biggest sales are
registered in the comic section.
Terry and the Pirates still holds
a thrill for the guys that have
had more thrills than most 10
people pack into a lifetime.
The PX carries some supplies
for the nurses. This includes
perfume, stockings, cosmetics
and hair wave stuff.
What the marine doesn't see
he asks for. The Sgt. has re
cently received requests to
stock anti-freeze (somebody's
been talking), nylon hose, ra
dios, raincoats and, of all
things, ALARM CLOCKS!
The average ' marine is a
smoker. Almost 2000 packs per
day, sold at two for a quarter,
are sent across the counter.
There's been no shortage thus
far for the Leathernecks.
Christmas Rush
Right now the Sgt. tells us
that he's getting ready for the
Christmas rush. They're going
to stock dolls, Christmas wrap
pings, jewelry, oictures of the
Klamath country, blankets,
cards, well, iust about every-
,U... rfnt thn nnHr
- MUlllg kUCJT tall g, incii imiiua
brtXo helo the kids. They might
even call classification and get
a professional gift wrapper out
of the bunch. They seem to
draw everything else they need!
That just about ends the main
room at the PX. From there
you go down the hall and to the
left is" the telephone exchange
with an-attendant on duty 10
hours a day., and she's a she
with a nice voice. She helps the
marines get through their long
distance calls and there are
nlenly made back home.
Beyond that is the barbel
shop where eight chairs are
wanned most ol the ume. The
marines have their favorite bar
bers and they'll wait and wait.
It's hair cuts mostly, from 80
to 100 heads a day as the Sgt,
nut it: a few ao in for sham.
poos but the boys really gel
gussied up on the weekends
and days they're in for inspec
tion. One of the first instruc
tions a marine receives at boot
camp is the need to look sharp.
Hair Cuts
Marines who work in the bar
ber shop have gone through the
regular barber school or were
barbers in civilian life. The
barbers get 60 per cent of the
day's take and buy their own
supplies.
One thing that worried us
was the sign on the wall. "Of
ficers' hair cuts, 35 cents; en
listed men, 25 cents." Uncle
Bulgy and I decided maybe the
officers had more hair. You
can't get a zoot suit trim, either.
The sign says no. "All men must
nave a regulation hair cut. Do
not ask the barber for any
other" So there!
We couldn't get into the
laundry. The attendant had
hung out a sign, "Gone to
Chow."
Three men work in the tailor
shop mending, repairing, alter
ing, etc. They're busy eight-nine
hours a day. Some boys are
right handy with the needle and
it should be quite an attribute
when they return to civilian
life and the buttons pop off in
the washing machine.
There is space and equipment
for a cobbler's shop. They hope
to have it in operation right
soon. These men will also re
ceive extra pay as do the men
on duty in the PX, who make
an additional $15 iron men per
month. Their work doesn't elim
inate them from regular duty.
When a new job comes up,
and a marine is needed for the
job, a request is made with
classifications. Within 30 min
utes names of men with a par
ticular talent are given the Sgt.
The men are offered the detail,
but they are not obliged to take
it. It's all on volunteer basis.
PX officer is Capt. J. W.

Just about the nicest thing
about an assignment to do. a
