D1DDY OF FIRE DEFT.
“If there is one thing I am proud of,
it is the boast that I was a member

Alaska for a trip to the States. Mr.
Ellsworth has just disposed of his
business in Seward and will enjoy a
vacation before returning a«am to

You can rest assured that I am not
leaving Alaska for long.”

SEWARD IN FORGING TO
FRONT RANKS OF WRITERS
“If you want to meet writers with,
personality,” invites the editor of
the Popular Magazine, he suggests
that the reader of the magazine look
for Frederick Nivens, Fred Maclsaac,
Albert W. Tolman, H. R. Marshal,
Frank E. Evans, Millard Ward, Em
met F. Harte, yftnd Ralph Guthrie.
The Ralph Guthrie, of course, is
Seward’s own, Capt. Ralph R. Guth
rie, one of, the most likeable and en
ergetic of citizens that have ever
called Seward “home”.
Capt. Guthrie’s contribution this
month to the bi^, national fiction
magazine is “The High Price of
Bangles”. It is a story of a man
who thinking he loved a little human
bangle, manages to get into rather
a tangle. Presented, by large, from
a humorous angle. Naturally, all of
Capt. Guthrie’s stories in recent
months have their setting in Alaska
and thus far in a close analysis of
each and every story, Alaska is being
presented to the reading world in
her best moods. The story this
month is bright with cleverness and
one wonders where the author has
obtained his detailed information
during his short stay in the Terri
tory.
In the July 20 number not yet
on the news stand, there will appear
another story by Capt. Guthrie en
titled “The Boy from Telculik.”
BRITISH GIRLS SIM
EARLIER, MEN LATER
LONDON. July 18. '(£>)—British

able girls lost their sweethearts dur
■ ing the war. Figures show that the
majority of brides are now between
20 and 25. They were children dur
ing the war. Many of the men now
marrying wera, youths during the
war.
