CAMPBELL NEWS LETTER Bv CLARENCE IRRTGOO


 The first question that faces one resident of Gambell was hard to solve. "If baby is born on the 18th of February this year, when will the birthday be next year? It can't be on the 18th of February or March 1st." Perhaps someone has the solution.
 Sewing Class
 Ed Sheppard of ALASKA FUR FACTORY in Anchorage made a quick trip to Gambell to buy few fox skins as well as survey the work to be done this summer on the buildings he purchased from the government surplus buildings. MT. Sheppard is opening sewing center here in Gambell this year like those at Shishmaref and other places. It took MT. Sheppard 5 months of waiting from the Gam bell Village Councils approval. Final agreement was reached when MT. Sheppard promised not to do any merchandising business beside the skin sewing. Every available women will be en- ployed, stated Sheppard, and the work will be strictly under the supervision of resients of Gam bell. All material such as skin proucts will come from different places, but locally purchased skins Of animal will be used. Surprise for Eskimos
 Yes, this was surprise when bulletin was posted in the local store telling the hunters, fishers and trappers to buy license before going away to their fish camps and trapping grounds. This was not a happy proposition to many at first but at the time of this writing every hunter above legal age even women bought their tickets in 1859 and renewed them in 1860. Our only hope is that there will be no closed season  on seal, walrus and ducks = on these the Eskimos of Alaska are dependent for their livelihood. Also fish from Alaskan waters and streams must not be limited for those who do not sell it. Miscellaneous
 A Marriage License was issued by the U. s. Marriage Commits sioner to Merlin Koonooka and Evelyn Oozeva, both of Gambell, Alaska. No immediate plans were made as to when and who will perform the marriage.
 Fair to good fur season this winter with Vernon Slwooko and Willis Walunga taking the lead of near 100's each person. Others anywhere from to 50. With the closing season this year later than usual, more white foxes will be caught, but one thing will inter fere - and that is the National Guard boys of whom all are trap pers will be away on their an- nual encampment.
