Church Land Is Harvested.

Minister and congregations of the United Protestant church of Palmer and Wasilla met together last week to harvest the potato crop of the Lords Acre projects of the two towns.
 The Palmer plot, which was planted on land contributed by Neil Miller, yielded bumper crop of 934 tons. The Wasilla acre was new ground, and the first-crop yield was not, so pro- life.
 Rev. Victor Alfsen, pastor of the United Protestant church, ex- plained that the Lords Acre plan IS a project through which rural churches raise funds. Land, seed and fertilizer are donated by church members.
 Members of the congregation meet together to blow and seed the land, and take turns at the necessary chores from planting to harvest. The crop is marketed locally after harvest and the pro- ceeds are divided between local church needs and foreign mis- SiOnS.

Fair Board
 Thanks Valley

Dear Friends:
 Now that the Matanuska Val
 ley Fair aAssociation's business
 has been completed for the wear.
 1t is only fitting to express the appreciation of the Fair Board and Management for the fine displays which were exhibited
 at the Fair this year.
 The exhibits of clothing art
 needlework, pastries and canned
 goods by the women in the
 school basement were especially
 good. Needless to say, much palnstaking thought and work went into the preparation and exhibiting of these products.
 The exhibits of flowers at the fair building were excellent
 They showed wide variation and good taste in. arrangement. It has great educational value in the possibilities presented for oeautlfylng the yards and lawns
 P or the homes. Vegetable and 1arm crop exhibits were not as extensive as could be wished but the quality of exhibits was excellent, especially in the Four Ii department. These bows and glfls are to be commended for the time and effort taken to make these exhibits.
 The farm exhibits were good put there should be more peo- Die entering exhibits in this class and also in the garden ey- hibit.
 Especially do we wish tol thank Frank Betschart of Fair banks for the loan of very excellent exhibit of farm crops lis exhibit shows what can he 1 done when time and effort are 1 .aken to make quality selections ! TOT exhibition. Such an exhibit would place at the top in any 1 [alr Tn the states. The display 1 was not competitive, but was sent down, after competing in the Panama Valley Fair, to show what can be produced in he neighboring agricultural community to the north.
 Thanks are also due George W. Gasser, territorial commis- 'loner of agriculture, for the i inc display of grains, wild fruits md other plants which were ex- llblted individually in glass cov- cred cases. These exhibits were abelled so that they were of great educational value to the public. It has taken considerable lme and thought to select, pre- 'are, mount and label these ex- llbits in permanent form,
 The Fair Management -espec- ally wishes to thank MT. Bet chart and MT. Gasser for their llndness in loaning these exhib- ts and in taking the time and ffort to ship them to the Val ey Fair. Il
 Sincerely,
 Fair Board and Management

CHRISTMAS SNOW
 E LATE, BUT ON
 TIME FOR EASIER

April showers air't what they used to beat least, that's the way it appears to be in Juneau, or, maybe yesterdays snow showers were the results of the weather mans idea for an April Fool joke Folks in the Gastineau Channel area have now reversed the old song title June in January" and are whistling these days, Its Jan uary in June" Of course, they've had to change the melody, too, but after all, if the weatherman can change the weather, it isn't diff cult to change a simple little thing like the music in song. Or, is it?
 All of this is just leading up to the fact that it showed in Juneau last night and this morning. About six inches fell in the higher parts of the city but the downtown area caught plenty, too. Except where the traffic has been heavy, there is still an inch of two on the ground downtown.

U. s. MARKET FOR BRITISH FILMS
These arrangements to distribute British pic.

opinion that their pictures should have the same
opportunity to earn revenues in this country a.
our pictures have in Britain.
This agreement prcsages 4 new era of coopera.
ton in the motion picture industry. 1t not only

The cost of selling and distributing motion pic
lures is likely to be increased as the result of
recent court ruling requiring changes in the in
dustry's s marketing methods. This was one OF the
factors that led the Universal management to
adopt its new policy of producing only pictures Of
distinction. Naturally, however, it will take
reasonable period of time for these new produc-
ton and distribution policies to become completely
effective and reflect themselves in the company's
overall operations.
PROGRAM FOR CURRENT SEASON.

tions will be the strongest in its history. Under
