Citizens should attend the dance tonight at the Arctic

There was a splendid turn-out last night of the mem
bers of the military unit and the words of praise given by
Lieut. Long were certainly appreciated and being a regu
lar army officer he did not give any of his effusion ex
pectetl from a private citizen. “You are well drilled in
the short time you have been at your work,” said Lieut.
Long and he meant it or he would not have said it. His
offer to assist the unit in their drills when duty does not
interfere is also heartily appreciated by the members of
the Seward Home Guards.

occupation or position is. The Editor of the Gateway be

The basket ball players are turning out in excellent

All Seward needs is a little of the pep and things go a
humming.Give us the basket ball game and the rooters
will he there to show that they are with the sports.
According to the local column today, a Seward man

next Monday. May great Jehovah have mercy on that
