One of the striking impressions that*impigned upon
the conciousness of the new pastor of the Seward Com
munity church when he arrived two months ago was
the lack of evidence of poverty. He looked for it but just
couldnt find it. He was so pleasantly nonplussed by the
fact that he told the Seward Chamber of Commerce of it.
Going on the well-prescribed formula that “the poor
we have always with us/’ and actuated by a sincere de
sire to give aid on behalf of his church if aid be needed,
he looked about him.
All he could see was a well-clothed, well-fed, pros
perous-looking, happy people. Some were poorer than
others, it is true, but none was very poor. More than
that, everyone carried that priceless asset of well being,1
a cheerful disposition and an abiding faith in the future.1
R is an established economic fact that a nation with
out mines can never he of the first importance. Mineral
resources are the basis of all wealth.
Just think what harsh things our politicians might
be saying1 if this were not a Christian nation.
Each nation favors disarmament provided all the j
others disarm first. j

“I do not think it will be ve"y
long before the fishing interests
will take advantage of the clam
beaches to the Westward and put
that product on the market,” said
J. W. Walker of Kukak, superin
tendent of the Hemrick Packing
Co., cannery who is on his way to
Seattle on the S. S. Admiral Rogers.
“We put up 5,400 cases of salmon
last summer but the run was not
good in our territory as compared
to operations in other districts. Toe
day is fast approaching when fish
ing interests must diversify and
take on other sea foods besides
salmon, halibut., and herring.”
