 APPRECIATION OF SENTINEL

Fenley Hunter, New York City businessman, who has had various big game hunts in the Cassiar, in a recent letter to the Sentinel said:
 "I surely enjoy reading the Sen tinel more than any newspaper published in the Big City. It con tains news of my real friends and the things they are aoing, all of which interests me more than the tragic hash that encumbers the front pages of our papers here.
 Please keep on sending me the Sentinel, which after reading always re-mail to a friend in Litchfield, Conn.,, who once hunt ed in the Cassiar and still retains a strong interest in everything that happens in Wrangell and points East.'
 In 1928 MT. Hunter explored and mapped the South Nahanni river in Northwest Territory, from its junction with the Liard river to the falls, 129 miles up the river which he named Virginia Falls after his daughter. He was the first white man to measure and photograph the falls which have a drop of 316 feet and are $50 feet in width.

 The matter of clearing the ola sawmilI dam at the head of Case avenue for a skating pond, was proposed by Mrs. H. R. Coulter and received unanimous support. Mrs. Coulter was asked by the president, Mrs. Johnson, to head the project and name her committee members.

 The school committee announced that they would have a meeting soon regarding new playground equipment. It had been expected that D. L. Wing, school janitor, would do a major portion of the labor of installation, but it was reported that it was unfair to ex pect so much of him; that he kept the schoolhouse and premises in immaculate condition, that his hours were long, and he should not be asked to. neglect his regular du ties in order to work on the play ground.

KETCHIKAN HALIBUT BOAT
 WRECKED ON REEF IN STORM

Driven on Key reef, about 50 miles north of Ketchikan, by high winds and seas at o'clock Tuesday morning of last week, after their motor had stalled because of water in the fuel oil, survivors of the wreck of the Schorn were returned to their Ketchikan homes on the coast guard cutter Alert Friday night. They had spent three days on the beach, housed in an aban- doned trapper's cabin. None were injured or the worse for his experi- ence.
 A passing trolling boat from a nearby island fox farm was hailed on Wednesday. Its operator was un- able to carry the party away from its camp, but he started for Wran- gell to bring word of the accident
 Shortly after 10 o'clock that night he intercepted the motorship Northland which was enroute to Wrangell and word was radioed to Captain H. Hansen of the cutter Alert.
 Heavy seas prohibited the ves- sells approaching the reef to sur vey the wreck. Her house and mast could be seen from a distance, how ever She was evidently sliding far ther off the reef with each tide, although partially checked by the anchor.
 The Schorn, a four-year-old hali- but vessel, valued at 12,000, will be salvaged.

s. Cunningham, his son, Fred Cunningham, and daughter, Miss Beryl Cunningham, were defend ants at a hearing conducted before US. Commissioner J. w. Stedman Tuesday afternoon on charges of selling liquor to minors brought by C. W. Miller, director of Wrangell Institute.
 A H. Zeigler, Ketchikan attor- ney, appeared for the defendants and Wilfred c. Stump, assistant U. S. attorney, prosecuted the case for the government.
 Four Wrangell Institute boys, two 19 years of age and two 20 years of age, were witnesses for the government One testified that he had bought the bottle of whis- ky at the Cunningham liquor store and that the sale had been made by Miss Cunningham. Two testified that they had stood outside the store while the first boy was inside and the fourth testified that the first boy had told him he bought the liquor of Miss Cunningham.
 On the witness stand Miss Cum ningham denied all allegations Zeigler in his speech summing up the case pointed out that Indian testimony was too unreliable to be taken into consideration when op- posed to that of a white woman. The commissioner discharged the defendants for lack of evidence.

Indian River Farm Notes
The recent rains of last week have
been estimated to be worth more
than 100000 to the farmers of Del
aware alone; all kinds of crops are
in very promising condition as the
result of the recent rains.
Many of the farmers in this sec
ton are growing cucumbers on a
large scale. the crop is the finest
in many years and the returns are
very encouraging. If the farmers of
Delaware would forget about grow
ing large crops of wheat and corn
and divert their farming to the needs
of the consuming public in our large |
nearby cities. they would be in a
much better position to meet their |
obligations. Delaware is favored by |
fortune in having ideal soil for all I

It's interesting, II true.
Unfortunately. zee don't feel any
better after learning that our five
senses aren't reliable. We're not
any happier to find that all the worn
furniture in our home is only an
ugly illusion-just a dirty trick
played by our optic nerves. Scien-
tiically, Of course. that battered bed

in the breakfast nook are merely
mistakes in our nervous system. We
aren't sure about it-maybe the
scientific gentlemen are right.
But whether they are or not, we're
thankful that rosy illusions" are
always possible with paint. Fresh
color applied to old pieces Of furni-
ture is an ideal method of bringing
on what the scientists would call
pleasant dreams" Given any old
table or chair, If the lines are fairly
good. you can. literally. perform
feats Of magic with a brush and a
can Of color. Even unsatisfactory
lines are often successfully hidden
by a new surface. Color also has the
power of assem- Jling unrelated
pieces into an attractive, we'll

Take. for example, the case of
young woman Of ouf acquaintance
who furnished a small bedroom at
tractively by the clever use Of paint.
She had no room in her budget for
new furniture, but she did have some
odd pieces Of old furniture which
she studied with many a frown.
