said the refusal of the Navy to lend
ships stopped them from making the
trans-Pacific flight.

BIG FAMILIES, LITTLE TABLES
Some of Seward’s families are so
large in number of children that at the
chicken dinner last evening, at the S.
A. C. hall, many were unable to find
tables' large enough to accommodate
them. However, it was noticed no one
seemed to be starving.
The cafe which opened for one night
only, last evening at the S. A. C. hall,
was just about the largest restuarant
ever to have been opened locally.
