JHJSKA GABLE SERVICE
INTERRUPTED FOR WEEK
Cable service between Ketchikan
and Seattle has been interrupted for
some days past and only by the ex
cellent work of the local Signal Corps,
with their network of radio stations,
that the doings of the world are being
recorded daily in the Seward Gate
way. It is reported the cableship Dell
wood has been on the job in South
eastern Alaskan waters since the
cable trouble began, but owing to the
violent storms has been unable to ac
complish results.
In the meantime the Gateway’s spe
cial correspondents at Westward
points. Anchorage, Nenana, Fairbanks,
Nome and Yukon river points, are on
the job as was evidenced in the num
ber of “Special to the Gateway” art
icles which are appearing in these
columns.
ADMIRAL WATSON SOUTHBOUND
The S. S. Admiral Watson, Capt.
Sam Glass, of the P. S. S. Co., is
scheduled to return to port tomorrow
from the eWstward, sailing south at
8 p. m.
HUSBANDS FEAR BARBERS
PARIS, April 8. (IP)—Barbers' influ
ence over women is worrying some
Paris parlor philosophers. Bobbed
hair is to blame. Thousands of wo
men who never before went to a hair
dresser now are regular customers.

FIRST IPPEARIUICE OF !
SEWItRD- BAND TONIGHT
Seward music lovers will be afford
ed the opportunity this evening, for
the first time, of hearing the new
brass band led by Director Russell F.
Honeyman. There will be at least 18
musicians in the band tonight and, ac
cording to present plans, only three
numbers will be presented; numbers
which have been practiced so thor
oughly that the audience will be amaz
ed ati the rendition.
For those who expect amateurish
selections a surprise awaits, state
fortunate ones who have already list
enedy in, for they may not yet be in
the class with Sousa’s famous band,
yet their playing of the three selec
tions this evening place them in the
ranks of professionals.
A well known resident of Seward
wondered vesterday if local citizens
I
really appreciate what a hand means
to a town. The Gateway answered,
if there were some in that frame of
mind it would be dispelled tonight af-,
ter hearing the new organization.

j tion which has come to be a much
sought shrine. Its distinction lies in
; the portrayal of the mother of Christ
' not as a mother, but as a daughter. A

great mosaic altar piece pictures Mary
as a young girl listening to her moth
er.
