On July 8th, during a jury trial
in the. Commissioner’s court, Frank
Becker fell from a high walk lead
ing to the store of Otto Kraft &
Son. The impact of his corpulent
body on the rocky beach after the
10-foot drop thru space, rendered
him unconscious and, when he was
carried up to the street in front of
the court house, he was apparently
lifeless. Several buckets of water,
which were dashed in hs face, pro
duced resuscitation. However, un
der the skillful care of Dr. L. Fryer,
it is believed that he will, within a
month or so be able to follow his
isual occupation as Associated
Press reporter.

charged with being a vagrant. The
specific charged named in the com
plaint was that he had no lawful
occupation by which to earn a liv
ing. The defendant introduced in
evidence, a bank book showing that
he had several thousand dollars on
deposit in a Juneau bank.
The Kodiak baseball team was
trounced by the boys from the S. S.
Surveyor on the Fourth by a score
of something like 15 to 6. However,
the Kodiak team, having more
ability to stand punishment than
*o play baseball, requested a return
game which was played on the 6th
with about the same results. Still,
4here are some mighty good players
living in Kodiak but, three or four
men. however skillful they are do
not make a ball team.
The reports from all of the 23
canneries and salteries in Kodiak
precinct are very discouraging.
There just are no fish to catch in

people out here will be in dire need
of the necessities of life during the
coming winter.

t
Be moderate—be moderate in all things,even in smok
ing. Avoid that future shadow* by avoiding over
indulgence, if you would maintain that modern,
ever-youthful figure. “Reach for a Lucky instead.”
Lucky Strike, the finest Cig
arette you ever smoked, made
of the finest tobacco—The Cream
of the Cirop-"IT'S TOASTED."
Lucky Strike has an extra, se
cret heating process. Everyone
knows that heat purifies and
so 20,679 physicians say that
Luckies are less irritating to
your throat.
“It’s toasted”
Your Throat Protection—against irritation—against cough.
*"1 have come to the conclusion,” writes Sir Henry Thompson, M. D., F. R. S., “that more than half the
disease that embitters human life is due to avoidable errors in diet.” We do not represent that smoking
Lucky Strike Cigarettes will bring modern figures or cause the reduction of flesh. We do declare that when
tempted to do yourself too well, if you will “Reach for a Lucky instead,” you will thus avoid over-indulgence
in things that cause excess weight and, by avoiding over-indulgence, maintain a modem, graceful form.
