COMPUTING TREASURES
While there is no denying that we have our full share
ol ills, political, financial and otherwise, and each recur
rent disappointment only serves to magnify and accen
uuite each in its turn, there is always one remedy which
has never failed to still inward turbulence while at the
same time palliating if not almost eradicating the origi
nal malady. This is m taking stock of that which we have
and meditating upon what it would mean to be without it.
It was not so very long ago when sufferers from
physical ills were practically at the mercy of Providence,
due to the lack of medical facilities; when men and wom
en died who might have had their lives prolonged.
And Seward was no exception to this condition be
cause of lack of facilities for proper caring for the sick.
And since sickness is a primary and unrelenting foe,
any agency capable of meeting and vanqishing its merits
being set apart as something having a greater impor
tance than any one of a great number of contributors
to man’s welfare.
Hence in the Seward General Hospital stands an in
stitution as enduring as it is vital, not only to the city but
to a vast territory contiguous hereto. Each week see men
and women coming from all parts of the coastal line and
far interior, many of whose cases command the most
skilled diagnosis and treatment, and under less fortunate
circumstances, as evidenced in the hospital, would be com
pelled to travel greater distances to world renowned in
stitutions. We again see these emerge from the hospital
with a new lease on life, whether it is the most delicate
of surgical operations or mere disorders of the alimen
tary canal.
This, indeed is a boon that cannot be lost sight of
when we are vexed with matters of finance and the hun
dred and one things which act as irritants.
In fact here we have what may be termed a repair
shop, to patch us up when the system has been worn by
1 eal or imaginary ills.
Now if all those defeated candidates will only forego
writing a book.
It appears that the Alaska Railroad is over-sensitive
on the question of severing home-ties.
The drop in the price of poultry is ascribed to Mr.
Hoover’s dumping his chicken holdings onto the market.
A hundred and fifty-thousand home-cut ties would
tie 150 men tighter to Alaska.
With his return to the presidency of Stanford, Sec
retary Wilbur dare not start an argument with an upper
classman on political economy.

Via the press, George Severson,
Moose Pass mining man who is in
the city for a few days on business
intends to steal a march on his
good neighbors and friends by
wishing them all a merry, merry
Christmas and a happy New Year.
Severson -came to town the oth
er day and returns within the next
day or two by way of Mile 14.
Located on Moose Creek, an the
rich Moose Pass placer country,
Mr. Severson has one of the finest
hydraulic properties in the entire
region and next spring he plans in
stalling a plant and the employ
ment of a small crew, and begin
harvesting the golden flakes and
nuggets.
“I hope the time will soon come,”
he said, ‘when both the placer and
quartz properties will be buzzing
with activity. Gold seems to be the
only thing worth anything these
days and I look to see considerable
activity in our section beginning
next spring.”
The great “moon dogs” visible
around last night’s moon are said
to forecast stormy weather.

TURKEY SIIOOT SUNDAY!
Fear not if on Sunday morning
the moan and dull roar of staccato
gun-fire awakens you from sound |
slumber. It will only be the boys out
yonder at the ball park trying to
knock over one of the scores of
great big fat turkeys which the
Rifle Club will present to lucky
“outdoor” cracksmen. From early
morn until the bed-time story
hour, the turkey shoot will con
tinue and, get an earful of this,
hot dogs and coffee will be served
FREE in a big warm tent. A stove
in the tent will give the folks an
opportunity to thaw out their
trigger-fingers and cold tootsies.
And for those who care not for
follow’ng the hounds—pardon—for
the shooting yet gaze upon the
birds with longing eyes, there will
be the good old paddle wheel.
