MINK ESCAPED FROM
ENCLOSURES, SELDOM
Seldovia chickens scrambled for
higher roosting retreats recently
when 10 young mink escaped from
their quarters of Seldovia’s Side
walk Mink Farm, and rambled
about the city. The escaped minks
confined their activities mainly to
the main thoroughfare but also
poked inquisitively about the near
by henneries but there were no cas
ualties.
A little coaxing by the owner, J.
H. Sparrow, and an inviting dis
play of choice cuts of porcupine,
brought the little fur bearers back
to safety, reports the Seldovia Her
ald.
An unsuspected enlargement of
a wire mesh, caused by the break
ing of a single strand, caused all
the trouble.

PLANE MISHAP
Word from Copper Center states
that Pilot Harold Gillam, flying
the Zenith plane, and carrying
: 1200 pounds of concentrates from
i the Nabesna Gold Mining Co., j
| mine, met with an accident in
I landing, the machine turning over
; on its back- Neither the pilot nor
j the machine were seriously dam
j aged. The accident occurred after
dark, as he was returning from
Nabesna. A friend, hearing the
plane, went out to the field in
his car and as an aid in landing,
turned the lights in the direction
of the incoming plane. Instead
of aiding, the lights blinded the
pilot, causing the mishap. A few
hours’ work was all that was nec- j
essary to put the plane in condi- j
tion again, reports the Valdez j
Miner.

Genuine "BULL” DURHAM Tobacco at 5^ marked the entrance of my father,
Percival S. Hill, into the Tobacco business. For 14 years he was President of The
American Tobacco Company. The fine quality and popularity of "BULL” DURHAM
were always subjects of great pride to him. Therefore, it is particularly gratifying to
us to offer this important saving and service to the American
public at this time.
