IT E1J0YRBLEIFF!
Public social affairs in Seward
have recently set so high a stand
ard that it is difficult to see how
succeeding ones may excell them.
Yet this is being done if the con
i census of opinion is judged cor
jrectly. The Odd Fellows put on
!a show Saturday night, which for
pure enjoyment, was unbeatable.
Never did a larger crowd pack
into the hall; the music excelled,
and the vast array of refreshments
disappeared with gusto. As each
person entered the door they
were crowned with paper hats.
Little children frollicked about
until long after midnight when
“Pop” and “Mom” went home.
And there wer£ gallons of “kick
less” punch for the thirsty.
The occasion was the 112th
anniversary of the founding of
the Order and to celebrate the
great event, open house, free to
one and all, resulted. Also, of
special importance to the local
Lodge was the lifting of the
mortgage from the old “old farm,”
and in honor of that the mort
gage was burned before the gaze
of the guests. t
Odd Fellows Lodge has always
had a reputation for putting on
real “homey” parties but they
fairly outdid themselves Saturday.
During the early part of the
evening L. V. Ray made a few
appropriate remarks fitting for
the evenly which were timely and
appreciated.
The last dance number was
played at about 3 a. m. and many
didn’t want to leave even at that
hour of the night, or morning!
VOLUNTEER FIREMEN
All members of the Volunteer
Fire Department are expected to
report at the Fire Hall this eve
ning at 7 o’clock for the purpose
of assisting in burning an area
of grass.

WORLD WAR MINS
ON OIC COIL CARGO
One of the former “creme de la
creme” of German raiders during
the World Kar, the Kronprinz Ei
tel Friederich, now the property
of Libby, McNeil & Libby, and re
named the Otsego, is in the Port
of Seward today loading Alaska
coal for Westward plants.
Instead of sneaking through
blockades to go buccaneering on
the high seas, the former interned
raider is now but a salmon can
nery vessel, carrying men and fish
from the States to Bristol Bay
and return; its long-since removed
and once-roaring guns have been
replaced by the methodical steam
jscreech of.donkey engines busily
] hoisting and unloading cargo.
| Captain Neilsen, commander of
j the SS Otsego, is loading about
i 1,600 tons of Evan Jones coal, all
5 for the company’s Westward can
neries. Tire vessel, itself , will
put 400 tons away in her bunkers.
The big vessel is of 4,638 gross
tons, and 2,595 net tons; her length
is 370 feet and it was built in 1902
at Hamburg, Germany.
Captain Neilsen expects to com
plete taking on coal tomorrow,
going directly West from here. 1
