GREAT YEAR AHEAD
The enthusiasm which marked the meeting la§t evening
* of the Seward Athletic Club speaks well for the
steady advancement in civic needs and in particular for
this coming winter’s activities.
The election of Mr. J. H. Flickinger as president of
the organization was a most timely selection in that with
his natural enthusiasm for things athletic and his keen
business ability spells nothing but success for the club.
And he is surrounded by a staff of assistants each and
everyone of whom are energetic and athletically inclined.
But in particular the most outstanding feature of the
organization this year is the hearty cooperation promised
by Capt. Ralph R. Guthrie, officer in charge of this area
of Alaska, U. S. Signal Corps, his officers and his fine
men comprising the cable and radio men and the quarter
masters department. Aside ifrom his duties as Presi
dent of the Seward Golf Club, Captain Guthrie has, since
his arrival a year ago, been the most consistent worker
for the good of the commuunity it has been the pleasure
of Seward’s citizens to have ever met. The assurance of
his and his men’s support will make it not only financially
successful but the most popular organization in the city.
WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN?
Probably when some one loses their life at the float
ing dock or injured the “powers that be” will think about
spending a couple of dollars and have one or two lights
erected. At night the condition at the floating dock is
tenable and it is a wonder that long before this casualties
have not occured. It Nvould seem this matter, which re
quires but a small amount of money, could have been tak
en care of months ^ago.
It is mighty pleasing, returning Alaskans say, after
leaving the home town and traveling through the various
cities in this great country of oufs, to come back home and
note the cast difference in the country and people.
That is why they always come back north.
Local sign-1“Don’t kill your wife; let the Seward
Steam Laundry do your dirty work.’’
There are from 25 to 30 children of kindergarten age
in Seward and yet there is no kindergarten. It would
seen that Seward should be able to afford thi$ small yet
all important educational matter.
