FOURTH OF JOLT PARADE
IS SMALL OUT OOOO;
FLOATS, CARS LIMITED
The Fourth of July parade yester
day was a disappointment only in that
many business houses and residents
showed little interest, but the half
dozen cars which appeared in the line
of march were quite beautiful, show
ing originality and excellent taste.
P. C. McMullen, acting mayor during
the absence of L. V. Ray, lead the pa
rade, followed by the band. Then
came the Color guard, composed of
soldiers from the Signal Corps; then
three troops of Boy Scouts from the
'Jehse Lee Home, clad in their smart
uniforms; followed then the Seward
Machine Shop float which was award
ed the best decorated float prize. A
bevy of little girls in red, white and
blue dresses, and with one represent
ing the Statue of Liberty and another
Uncle Sam, made a very pretty spec
tacle on the handsomely decorated
float. The fire department truck came
next, and in addition to being draped
in patriotic colors carried youngsters,
each of whom held aloft the large
letters “B. P. O. E”
The Seward Steam Laundry auto
was gaily decorated and came within
an act of being granted a prize, but
the most original float prize was
awarded to Mrs. Chris Halverson.
This car was adorned with a large
outspread eagle and ribbons and
streamers of red, white and blue, and
in the tonneau were a swarm of young
buds daintily dressed. *The best deco
rated car prize was presented to Miss
Patricia Ray. The design was simple
but effective. Miss Ray was driving a
Chevrolet." The best sustained char
i
acter impersonation prize was award
ed to J. B. Sullivan from the U. S. S.
Surveyor for his presentation of Wal
lace Beery in “We’re in the Navy
Now.” Leon Urbach, as a Seward
golfer and his son as a caddie, afforded
much amusement and brought forth
many complimentary remarks.

Ellis, came over from Anchorage Sat
urday, to spend the Fourth of July
