DON’T FORGET JULY FOURTH!
Now is the time that all good men (firemen) are
coming to the aid of the party!
Said party being the annual Fourth of July cele
bration held by the good Sourdoughs and Chechakos of
the best little city in the world—Seward.
And lend us your ears.
Plans are all made for a rip-snorting time for old
and young; see the elephant jump the fence and all that.
Parades, games, races, contests and a big ball are on the
program; and, at the next meeting of the Volunteer
Fire Department it is anticipated the schedule for the
grand and glorious day, and prizes for the many events,
will receive the official okeh of the “smoke-eaters” who
already have the matter well in hand.
This much we can inform you now, howeyer, that
the Jesse Lee Home is out to win the Mount Marathon
sweepstake race; if any of the town youths wish to an
nex this noted .race and substantial prize, they should
get busy pronto! There will also be a float entered by
the Home and some of the pupils will be in the line of
march. Thanks, Jesse Lee, for the enthusiasm!
With the aid of the business men of our beautiful
city and a little financial assistance from the City
“Dads” the old Fourth will go over with a bang.
Contests will be open to all, residents and visitors alike,
and special efforts are being made to have the crews of
the Cutters Unalga, Chelan and Surveyor present, as
well as an Admiral steamer, to share in the athletic
events and win a little liberty money. Prizes will be giv
en for manly prowess and maidenly pulchritude. Yes
indeed we hope to see bathing beauties. After the com
pletion of'outdoor events the celebration will be brought
to a close by a grand ball in which the fairest daughters
of Alaska will dance the light fantastic and the Colleg
iate hop with visitors and the boy friend
And oil sailors will be admitted free!* Avast there!
More of the program will see the light ‘o day soon, re
ports the committee. In the meantime it is requested
that one and all leave home the well-known hammer:
with scores of people in town here is a chance for Seward
to again go down in history by showing our neighbors
from the North, East, South and West, that we got the
best little city in Alaska and the Seward smile is
worth journeying many miles to see.
Warm Puppies! Let’s Go!
A machine has been invented that registers the
occupation for which each man is best fitted. It is pro
posed to try one on the Legislature
Enough of this scandal!
A friend of Mr. Volstead says the strong should re
sist a drink to encourage the weak. As it so happens only
the strong can stay a round with Mr. Volsteiad’s substi
tute; the weak cannot even get into the preliminaries.
It appears that the supply of gossip never exceeds
the demand.
IETK ON INLET
REPORTS VISITOR
The hand packing cannery bus
iness on Cook Inlet is developing
into an industry of large propor
tion, states John Lindstrom who,
with four partners, operate such
a plant down at West Forelands.
Mr- Lindstrom arrived in the
city last evening from Anchorage
in connection with court duty
and expects to remain here for
a number of weeks.
Associated with him are Harvey
Smith, Charles Miller, Henry Nel
sen and F. Clark, each and every
one of whom are known in this
city. Prospects are excellent, it is
said, and while they do not ex
pect to set the world on fire, yet
they anticipate making a reason
able profit from their investment.
A1 Jones is going full blast with
a one-line outfit down at Kus
kotan. George Baker and John
Calender are at Point Possession.
Jim Campbell is operating on
Callagan Issland; besides these
there are a number of others
whose names temporarily had
escaped Lindstrom's memory.
