SEWARD
THE KEY-PORT, POINT
Noel W. Smith is enroute to Washington D C.,to en-(
deavor to have the headquarters of the Alaska Division
of the Bureau of Education moved to Anchorage.
We appreciate his boosting for Anchorage, but we be
lieve the logical place for the Territorial headquarters of
the Bureau of Education is in Seward.
Seward is the key-point of the Territory for trans
portation connections and for speedy communication
whether by mail, telegraph, cable, or radio. To give ef
ficient service and further add to the unselfish aid they
are giving Alaska the Bureau should choose Seward, and;
undoubtedly would if it was left to them, instead of Out-;
side pressure.
PLUCKY MRS. MARIE FRANZEN
The service rendered by the Bureau of Education in
Alaska is again forcibly brought to our attention when
we learn that the teacher at Kokrines, whose leg was
broken last week in a fall, is carrying on her work altho
confined to her bed. We admire her spirit, and her ex
ample should give us courage to carry on when things are
the darkest. It is such courage which will in the end
bring to Alaska the position and prosperity of which it is
so well deserving.
If any rebel in Mexico who is boosted for the Mexican
Presidency is wise he will choose to run.

IDE WWHICH
(By "Cannon Ball” Baker)
The women’s branch of the S. A. C.
had their annual good time last night
at the gym. Coffee, women and laugh
ter a happy combination, which was
enjoyed by all those who accepted the
W. A. C.’s generous invitations.
The aim and future policy of their
branch of the club was talked over
and tentative plans were made to in
augerate an S. W. A. C. basketball
team, which found instant favor
among the younger ladies present.
We are willing to lay odds that it will
be a huge success.
The Signal Corps has offered to play
them for the championship of Seward
anytime they think they have arrived
at the peak of their athletic tprowness.
The only thing the boys object to:
The ladies will kindly refrain from
talking to the boys out of any points
that they may accumulate. No con
cealed weapons will be tolorated
such as, hat-pins (the long variety)
rolling-pins, or any other heavy “per
suaders” of like nature.
Our hats are off to good w’omen of
Seward, who know how to have a good
time. *

Well ladies and gents, tomorrow
night is the “big night”, we are going
