N 0 NACLE WILL BE ASSOCIATED
 WITH ROBERTSON
Juneau Young Man, Grad uate of Eastern Law
 School Settles Here


 Michael Monagle, wellknown Ju- neau young man, recently graduated from the law school of the Mar quette College, in Milwaukee, Wis consin. has returned to Juneau and has entered the law offices of R E. Robertson, where he will have charge of the Personal Service Cor poration.
 MT. Monagle left Juneau :n 1924 and began the study of law in the Seattle College. From Seattle he went to Milwaukee to continue his studies in the Marquette College. In his Junior year he formed associa- tions with Slensby & zaidins, an old law firm of Milwaukee. from whom he prepared briefs and tried minor cases. He was successful in handling several corporation and bankruptcy cases for a Chicago law firm before passing the bar exami- nation.
 MT. Mcnagle graduated fri m Marquette last June, and in July took the bar examination at Madi- son, Wis, which, through recipro- cal relations with the bar associa- tions of other states, permits him to practice law in Michigan, Illi- nois and Texas. He was doing splendidly in corporation practice in Wisconsin and Illinois, but the lure of Alaska was strong and he decided to return to Juneau and grow up with the country
 MT. Monagle's certificate from the clerk of the Supreme Court of Wisconsin, and an affidavit of his good standing filed with the District Court here, entities him to practice law in Alaska without eX- animation.
 After being away five years can see many improvements" said the new attorney this morning. .'The paved streets leave a favor able impression to the chance yisi- tor in Juneau and the new Triangle Building would be credit to any town"

DUCKS TO TAKE LIFE IN EASE
 AFTER SUNDAY
Hunting Season Closes Sun
 day Birds May Be Possessed to Dec. 25

Ducks that inhabit Mendenhall Flats, noted for their witness and perspicuity, were today gettin g ready for last assault on their grounds tomorrow. Those that sur- yive the drive and escape local scattergun artists, after sundown Sunday, can take things easy until September 1, 1930
 Tomorrow the hunting season for all migratory wild birds comes to an end for this year. Generally it has been at least as good as former years just preceding. Ducks and geese were fairly plentiful in most of the favored localities and hunt CTS have had fairly good bags all Fall. Birds possessed at the close of the season may be retained for a To-day period but must be dis posed of by December 25.
 Local hunters claim that the ducks that frequent Mendcnhall Valley and it's salt water marshes are the wiliest to be found any where. They have an eye for dis tance that is truly remarkable. To this is added faculty for distin- gushing days. For instance, it is said they know the days of the week, and prove it by spending their weekend far out in the salt chuck where the hunter can't ap- proach without being seen and heard. Then,tco many who persue them assiduously aver that at any rate know when the hunting sea- son is ended. Tomorrow, when shooting is legal, the birds take to the ocean. But after December 15, the flocks move en masse to the mud flats and fresh water sloughs and wallow and feed without re- gard for those who draw near to their haunts. Some of the hard boiled greenheads, it is claimed, who have flown just out of range all season, will sit on gun barrels after tomorrow with perfect unconcern.

rowed their differences over the
farm bill to two issues-stabilization
corporations and the debenture-and
agreed to hold meeting tonight
in an effort to rush legislation
through.
The unusual plans to hurry the
effective date of farm legislation
have the sanction of President Hoo

Corn, rye, barley, oats and cotton

were noted in the markets Monday
when the United Press told of prep

meet the situation.
In furtherance of these plans, the
department of agriculture is report
ed to be ready with recommended
ton to the budget bureau, asking
5000, 100000 for purchase of neceS-
sary farm SURPRISES, much Of which

A resolution then probably will be
offered in the house TO appropriate

bility the board may begin work to
ease the market situation within a
month.
