SEWARD AS HOST
With the possibility of the Coast Guard cutter Algon
quin and the survey steamship Surveyor in port for July
4 Seward will have an opportunity of demonstrating the
warmth of feeling held for the officers and “gobs” who
are doing so much to aid navigation in Alaskan waters.
Of the various organizations represented in Alaska there
is just a pit of partiality felt for the men who comprise
the Coast Guard service and the Geodetic Survey, not only
because of the fine type of men found in the service, but
because many stirring chapters of romance of the sea
have been created by their exploits. This feeling general
wherever contact is formed between the permanent resi
dents and those whose mission is to keep the water travel
ways safe and bring aid when needed.
Seward will be happy to play host to the personnel of
the Algonquin and Surveyor, and especially the latter,
which have already been given a seat in the family circle
and established a warm and abiding friendship.
Chamberlin and Levine have finally met their wives.
It will be noted that the first act was to get them up in the
air, where the motors could drown out what they had to
say about slipping off without saying where they were
going.
The Chinese certainly used their noodles when they
concocted that dish called chow mein.
It’s a fine winter we’re having this summer!

Seward or during the first week in j

SOMEONE’S WORKING
From the looks of the water-logged
wood and debris piled on the shore
of the swimming hole, if looks as
though someone has taken it upon
himself to clear the lake of its waste.
Possibly the Devil, in his desire to
receive dismissal from the blazing
fernament wherein he has been sen
tenced, came to do homage to man.
that he might receive parole. Any
way, it shows that someone is doing
his share in helpirg to make Harri
man Lake better fit for swimmers.
