But this Easter, by way of
varying gift offerings for those

has made, up perfectly fascinating
miniature rockeries.
These are either pottery bowls,
or glazed pots in all sorts of
shapes-some of them Easter
baskets with chick designs, Eas-

These are planted with tiny
cactus and succulents in unusual
shapes with bright-colored dwar-

placed among them. Rocks in the
miniature gardens were brought
from the Ozark mountains by the
Burners.
The rockeries are also made in

shapes.
Available at the greenhouse is a
! big selection of flower and plant
accessories"
These include Roseville pottery,
bowls and vases which, with
flowers, make lovely Easter gifts.
The hanging Roseville baskets are
also in great demand.
Glass window shelves, branched
metal stands to hold several pots
and metal saucers, pot holders
which fasten firmly to window

in stock.

Expanding in the trade territory

Superintendent Of Sumner
Straits Traps Assumes
Blame for Error

Two traps of the Alaska Pacific
Salmon Company in the Wrangell
district were seized yesterday by
Government officers for fishing be-
fore the opening of the season.
According to U. S.. Attorney Will
liam Holzheimer the trap superin-
tendent admitted he had made a
mistake in the date, believing the
district was to open to fishing July
10 instead of July 20. Fishing in an
adjoining district did open July 10.
The traps are at Boulder Point
and Point Barrie on Sumner Strait.
They were seized by Bureau of
Fisheries Warden and Deputy U. S.
Marshal VIII oflew from Wrangell to
investigate.
Trap watchmen, placed under
arrest at the time of the seizure,
were later released when the super
intendent assumed full responsible

COURT OF APPEALS
DECIDES WILL CASE

A case, interesting to many POGO
moke citizens, has just been decided
by the Maryland Court of Appeals.
The opinion had to do with the will
of the late DR.. Julius T. Hall, who
left the bulk of his estate to the
Maryland Baptist Association, amount
ing to over $4,000, with the proviso
that the Association raise an equal
sum within a specified time, land the
$4,000 be expended in building an
Orphans home somewhere in the
State of Maryland.
If the Association were unable to
raise said amount, then the principal
should be put on interest until an a
mount equal to the principal had &C
crued, and then this should be expend-
ed for the home for orphans.
The lengthy opinion handed down
by the Court contained the follow
ing closing paragraph: "It being our
(the Court's) opinion that the bequest
fails because of the inability of the
Maryland Baptist Union Association
to take it for the purpose specified,
it follows that the testator died inte-
state as to the same and that the fund
in question belongs to the next of
kim"
This will result in a tri-partition
of the estate, there being relatives
still living as descendants of the two
brothers and the sister named in the
will children of Charles Hall, Rich
ard Hall and Mrs. Laura Wimbrow.
