OUTLOOK IN THE SMS
IS NOT TOO PROMISING
It would be no surprise to see a
reneral tightening up in all lines of
business and much unemployment in
:he States, says M. J. Conroy of
Anchorage, who has spent the winter
in California, with Mrs. Conroy, who
returned with him Saturday on the
S. S. Yukon, after a three-yea’-.= so
journ.
Mr. Conroy says ther*» is so much
unemployment in evidence at the
resent time, and especially along
the Pacific coast in the lumber in
dustry. Many mills are running only
a few days a week, the condition
being the outcome of a lack of de
mand for lumber. This lack of de
mand, Mr. Conroy attributes to over
building in many of the cities.
Owing to th.p general tendency to
make installment investments for
all sorts of commodities, principally
luxuries, should the tightening un
continue for any length of time it
would cause something approaching
a panic.
During the coming summer Mr.
Conroy will proceed with develop
ment of the Web Foot mine on
Archangel Creek in the Willow Creek
district, where already considerable
work has been done on a well-defin
ed vein of quartz carrying consistent
values.
Frank Moore, local decorator who
went to Seattle some weeks agj for
■pecia! medical treatment, is improv
ing right along, letters receive 1 in
Saturday’s mail state. Each oav he
is taking walking exercises.
Mr. and Mrs. Tngwa'ld Jacobsen,
who are accompanying the body of
their son to Seattle od the S. S.
Admiral Farragut, will return to
Seward on the same vessel.

BODY OF SEWARD BORN YOUTH
SENT TO SEATTLE FOR IN.
terment
! Sometimes the call of death sum
mons its victims from the very in
nocence of youth and, it is often the
bright and cheery souls upon whom
the grim reaper points beckoning
fingers and takes the loved ones
away from their parents at a time
when such a parting is least ex
pected. Such was the sad case, dur
ing the past week, in the death of
Sydney Jacobsen, 12 year old and
only child of MV. and .Mrs. I. Jacob
sen.
The beautiful funeral service, held
in Odd Fellows hall yesterday, and
officiated over by Rev. Thomas
Philip Graham, was attended by
[scores of friends of Sidney and of
| the bereathed parents, there, to pay
their last respects to the Seward
born lad.
Every member of the Seward Boy
Scout troop, of which Sidney was an
honored comrade, were grouped to
one side of the beautiful, flower
bedecked casket.
Tears, glistened in the eyes of
practically all present at the ending
of the beautiful and sympathetic
prayer offered by Reverand Graham.
Mayor L. V. Ray spoke with deep
feeling of the departed lad and in
ending spoke again the wonderful
poem which marked the local memor
ial exercises of the late President
Warren G. Harding, and over which
he had the honor to officiate.
Miss Elsie Hoffman and Mrs. Sigrid
Merritt each rendered appropriate
vocal solos accompanied by Mrs. E.
C. Johnson and Mrs. McNally on the
piano.
At the conclusion of the service
P. C. McMullen opened the casket
and all slowly filed past for one last
look at the boy. Sidney in life, was
a fine, upstanding looking lad, and
so it was in death. Amid the bed of
satin and silk Sidney lay with a
glorious smile; a serene smile of
contentment on his contenance and,
very life-like. The memory implant
ed by this last glimpse will linger
forever in the minds of many.
Later in the day, upon the arrival
of the S. S. Admiral Far’-agut from
the Westward, the Boy Scouts acted
as honor and color guard and pall
bearers, marching slowiy from the
hall to the steamer. Hats were
doffed as the procession passed and
muffled sobs were distinctly audible.
The parents are accompanying the
body of their son to Seattle where
interment will be made. They will
probably return home within the
month.
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Richards return
ed home yesterday from a pleasent
trip Westward. Mrs. Richards left
