One thing is sure: if the people living in Seward don’t
do anything to help their own community along, nobody
from some other town is going to fall all over himself try
ing to do it. Self help is the first law of nature, and one
of the first requirements in community development.
SAFETY IN ALASKAN WATERS
A Seattle paper justly observes that at least four
ships have gone aground in northern waters this summer,
happily without loss of life. The fate of the Challamba,
the Admiral Watson, the Prince Charles and the Princess
Charlotte calls attention to the danger still existent in the
navigation of the Inside Passage, beset as it is with fogs,
rocks and tiderips.
Seward and Seattle, ports of entry for most of the
traffic of the northern water lanes, should lend every aid
to securing better lighting and buoying of these waters.
There cannot be too many lights and markers in the tortu
ous channels thru which passenger and freight ships ply
so regularly.
One of the alleged peculiarities of women is set forth
by Somerset Maugham in a current play, in which one of
the characters says: “If a woman were deceived by an
aviator and beaten by a Russian, the next man she would
fall in love with would be a Russian aviator.”
SERMONS IN STARS
Movie stars are not generally thought of as preach
ing sermons, but Vera Reynolds, well known actress of
the screen, preached one the other day. When asked by
hospital physicians if she had attempted to take hef* own
life, she replied: “ I am not ready to end it all; life is in
deed very sweet and I have much to live for.’’
Is there much to live for, even for a movie star to
live for? There is. Miss Reynolds knows it. The ages
gone have shown it. The future will prove it. But all of
us don’t admit it.
Sign in a Seward restaurant: “Enjoy your meal.
While eating practice a few smiles in this mirror; it’s a
small investment and pays big profits.”
An oldtimer says the “flower of youth” we hear so
mueh about is sometimes the perfume from a drug store.
Anyhow, nobody seems to be walking just because the
new Ford isn’t out.

this excellent player in action. They j
learned a lot, it is said. Mr. Peak s
was loud in his praise of the Sew. j
