BINKLEY BUILDING
 WILD BERRY MARKET

Paul Binkley, who with his family moved over to Farm Island last spring, is engaged in a project to utilize some of the natural re- sources of this region which have hitherto been neglected.
 Wild berries growing in protuslon on Farm Island in former years have been allowed to go to waste. This year Paul has attempted to market the berries. He has had moderate success in Wrangell with nagoon berries, selling about slOO worth here besides a trial shipment to Ketchikan.
 Word from Petersburg and his previous experience in selling gar den products, make him believe that his best market lies there, He has A number of Wrangell orders in for high bush cranberries and wild crab apples which will be ready to pick soon.
 Soii and climate combine to pro duce luscious wild berries in this section and it is believed that Binkley in building up a market Tor them has hit upon an excellent way to supplement the farm income.

SURATT FILMS
 GIRLS, GLACIER
Wrangell Girls Brave Icy Waters Of Le Conte Bay For
 News Reels

To put life and action in a Fox Movietone picture of Le Conte glacier and the icebergs of the bay, R. J. Suratt chartered the Beilby Monday and took out a bevy of Wrangells pretty girls, the oldest one being not quite sixteen years of age.
 Margaret and Carol Ferguson, Geraldine Morse, Lois Wheeler and her guest, Joy Kyle of Ketchikan, were the favored girls. Clad in beach pajamas and bathing suits, the girls romped and played on the icebergs while the camera clicked.
 Huge icebergs left on the beach by the tides, or within wading dis tance of the beach were selected by Suratt as the girls playground. Wind and wave had carved the bergs' into all manner of fantastic shapes and had chiseled a tunnel through one. Suratt selected this berg for filming and the girls ran through the tunnel and disported about the icy masses most joyously.
 Carol Ferguson was the only one who would plunge into the icy water for a swim. The bathing beauties report that they were so cold they felt like they were being pricked by needles and slashed with knives, but nevertheless, they had a grand" time.
 How the girls had the fortitude to ov5t1ro cold fa vet nrV tn older folk but they enjoyed their suffering and are eager to go on other trips.

The Bidding
 At auction South, the dealer, would buy the contract for one no trump, while at contract North would take partners one no trump to three no trump.
 The Play
 At diamonds, Vests longest and strongest suit, is headed by the king. jack, ten, he leads the jack from this combination. dummy plays the three. East knows that when the jack is led against no trump declaration it is either led from the ace, jack, ten, the king, jack. ten or the jack, ten nine. As assumes that the lead is from the ace. jack, ten or king. jack. ten and covers with the queen in order to unblock the suit.
 Declarer plays small. East re- turns the nine of diamonds. There is no advantage in the declarer's s holding off because if the opening leader only held four diamonds originally, the most the opposition can make is three diamonds and a heart trick, and if the diamonds are split five-two, it may work out to the declarer's disadvantage to
 
 the ace, West playing the four.
 The declarer, hoping for a club split, leads a small club to the dunn mys king, returns the queen and then the deuce. overtaking in his own hand with the ace, West show ing out and discarding small spade. The declarer's hopes for game are now dwindling. If he plays the deuce of hearts and West would play small, he would go up with the nine, and throw East in the lead with the jack.
 East could then cash his good ten of clubs, but would be forced to lead to declarer's hearts or spades. West could easily defeat this line of offense, though, by playing the ten of hearts, which would force the dummy's king and all declarer could do then would be to cash his two good spades and his heart. which would only give him two odd.
 His best plan is to try and make one of the opponents squeeze the opponents suit by leading the seven of diamonds, West wins with the ten, dummy plays the eight and East discards the six of spades; West cashes his king and deuce or diamonds, dummy discarding the four and six of hearts. East must hold his good ten of clubs and de- cides to protect the spade suit, dls. carding the seven and eight or hearts. Regardless of what West leads now, East will be squeezed.
 If West leads the seven of spades, declarer will win with the king, lead a small heart to dummy's king. return heart to his own ace and East will be forced to discard either a spade or a club. If a heart is led by West. dummy will win with the king. return a heart to declarer's ace and again East will be forced to discard a spade. which will make all of the declarer's spades good.
