The McIntosh Residence formally
occupied by Mr. Elmer Friend was the
scene of a very pleasant gathering on.
Sunday evening December Twelfth
when the Misses Ethel and Edith Mc
Intosh entertained a few of theji
friends at an infoimal house warming.
The spacious rooms of the McIntosh
House made an ideal place for danc
ing which was the principle feature
indulged in until a late hour when a
very tasty luncheon was served. Those
who participated were the Misses:
Myeri Towle, Thelma Ellsworth, Beu
lah Wilson and the Messers: K. Hod
ge, G. L. De Sleeker. T. W. Haines.
The Malamute Club, that was or
ganized recently by a few of the'
young men of the town with D. J.
Reirdon as manager, Chester Hansen
as Sec. and Treas., and the Messers
• Bryan, Horner and Moore as Directors
gave the first of a series of fiances,
planned to take place in Sewaixl thife
winter, at the Odd Fellow's Hall on
i
Saturday evening December 11th. The
Hall was well filled with dancers
which speaks well for the success oi*
the Club, whose motto we learn, is
%
“A weekly dance and special attention
paid to all visitors by the members.”

There is a pei-sistent rumor among
the younger set that wedding bells
will ring before the year is out.

The Officers and Crew of the U. S.
A. T. Cable ship Burnside paid Sew
ard a very pleasant visit on Wednf's
day evening December the 15th. It is
too bad something wasn’t planned in
the way of a dance for the whole crew
which comprises a hundred and fifty
men. Of course the uncertainty o? h •
boat arriving at the dock and the lack
of a little pep on the part of the o •
gangers cf dances in Seward tells the
story . With all due consideration for
the overworked Cable and Radio for
ces we would like to see the Burnside
ba<h in Seward again looking for an
other break.
A society item appearing in one oi
late San Francisco papers arrived ir.
Seward gives a full description of a
reeption that took place aboard tht
U. S. S. Idaho. Among the names oi
the many guests invited on that oc
casion was that of Miss Emily Borgon
this city who was the guest of Dr.
i Scheely well known in Seward as the
popular young Dr. formerly of the U.
S. S. Saturn who has been transferred
to the same position on the Battle*
| ship Idaho.

Miss Eva Cameron a recent arrival

Did you see Huckleberry
Finn at the Liberty Theatre
last night ? If you did you
know just what kind of a
real-honest- to- goodness
show it is. If you did not see
it and your Kiddies did not
see it, go tonight and take
the kids along. You cannot
help laugh at some of the in
cidents portrayed.
They are real and the wat
ching of the different reels
as they unwind the advent
ures of Huckleberry Finn
will cause your memory to
take you back to til* %
tures of Huckleberry Finn
will cause your memory to
take you back to the scenes
of your own childhood and
you will once again think
that the old world is a pretty
good place to live in, partic
ularly so if it is a place
where there are plenty of
children, both boys and girls.
ou cannot afford to miss
Huckleberry Finn tonight at
the Liberty.
“I’d die for you,” he cried.
And lo. She wrinkled up her
brow.

If the brand of weather we
have been having the last
forty eight hours continues
another forty eight the snow
will be practically all melted
in and around Seward. We’
ve been having regular Ore
gon weather.
We have not received r
copy of the Nenana News o;
the Fairbanks Miner since
November 12th. We are
wondering just what be
comes of these papers be
cause we sure like to know
what is going on up the line.
The cable operatives in *
Seward are second to none in
Alaska and the fact that* the
Signal Corps officials have
lieen trying to coax both Mr.
Perry and Mr. Mooney away
with offers of jobs with a
supposedly higher rating in
theorganization is a good
sign that their value is ap- j
predated by those who
'Know. We need both of these
men in Seward. We want
both of them to remain in
Seward. We feel that they
are a vital part of the local
community and the remov
ing of them from Seward
would create a vacancy
which would be hard to till !
Both of these men are al
ways on the job. They are in- \
terested in seeing Seward go:
ahead and they are doing
their bit and doing it well, to
make the future success of
the town a concrete fact. We
are almost certain that they
will not leave unless they re
ceive orders to do so and we;
are sincerely hoping that ;
these orders will never be
suit. We have a cable organ*
ization in Seward that is A.
number 1 in every respect]
and we do not wish it to |
change.
