FOx POACHERs RAID
 FARM, DA|RD ISLAND

Teachers raided a blue fox farm on Baird Island, in the vicinity or Chichagof, recently, and made way with 20 animals, according 70 3 letter received by the Alaska Game Commission from c. L. Dur gen, owner and operator, it was announced in the Empire. There was no clue to the identity of the Doachers.
 MT. Durgen said all the stolen animals were marked with one quarter inch round holes in both ears. A patch of fur four inches square was also shaved off each side of the foxes. This is the fourth time in as many years that the Durgen ranch has suffered losses from the operations of poachers-
 While this is the first authentic ~enort of such losses this year. the commission has heard rumors of other raids. From these, 1t eeamed apparent that the poach- CTS were operating rather exten- stvely in the Icy Strait district.

RAIN AND SUNSHINE

The other day we heard friend crying about the cussed snow; yesterday we heard another good friend moaning about the rain and wind He didn't like 1t because everything dull and gloomy the sun did not shine and the rain made everything miserable Personally like the rain Did you ever notice when 1t rains how sidewalks, roofs and auto tops shine?
 We are thinking of time when we were almost down and out ar3 there nothing for the rainy day We suddenly nt 9d then that real friends seemed to shine brightly than before and if 1t hadn't been for the rain perhaps never would have known how brightly friend shine when rays are needed
 little diversity in fellows life rarely does him any harm But while hes down he certainly has fine chance to discover few truths the things worth while
 Anybody have friends while hc has money or luck It's easy to tell not to worry when he is doesn't enjoy rainy day the next best thing to do is to look for the gstening spots the ewsks roofs and auto tops and work like the dickens

COMMUNICATION

1 The Gateway:
 !. Just little social news.
 The Campfire Girls of Valdez Of which the school teachers are the leaders, entertained the peo- pie of Valdez March 14, with a bazaar and circus side-show. The first on the program was a shadow picture, of which I en- close program 1t was a very clever little act and well carried out. There were fortune tellers, great fishpond where you caught anything from a sucker to a diamond and you could get hats. dogs, and chicken with it tie dressing. In fact, you could buy anything from 2 needle to a ticker, providing you had the nlazuma. They even had a train run over a boy, and he is still alive to tell the story. There were faklrS and spiders like you see in the good old circuses and bazaars, And consider, it was the first show given by these pretty Campfire Girls It was success from start to finish.
 Next on the program, and may be the last for this winter, is the Valdez Dramatic Club play. With all these social affairs and that rich gold strike of De- heny-Dolan I think we will all enjoy another and better year l93O. Let's hope 50, for the only packers in Valdez will be left l packing the gold out of that rich ! ,re.

 Deputy Marshal Grant Is of the opinion that the department of jus tice will next year make some ex- tensive improvements to the public grounds at Wrangell. A new jail will be built in March and it may be possible that a new court house and new walks will follow. Next year will be none too soon for these improvements as the buildings are now a disgrace to the government Ali Roche returned last week from the west coast where he has been cooking for the road commits sion on the Prince of Wales Island Portage during the past season. He says that the road building has been pushed rapidly but that the work done was of a permanent na- ture. The work was closed on ac- count of bad weather.
 Somebody last week shot a good dog belonging to Peter Jensen; and Peter is justly indignant. He says that the dog never harmed any body and was invaluable to him, both as a companion and for re- trieving game, and if he could ob- tain sufficient evidence he would make it warm for whoever shot the animal.
 It begins to look as though Logan Havird and Frank Smith have come to grief. Last week Havird's boat was found broken to pieces on Vank Island. Near the boat and scattered promiscuously about the beach were lot of provisions. Havird and Smith were known to be together, and the discovery on Vank's Island would point to their probable drowning.

 Keep that spelling school mat ter in mind.
