Mail via Dogieam
In talking of the new star
route to Homer, which goes into
effect next summer with com
pletion of the new highway, he
relates how his uncle, Alfred
Rosness, in 1917 had the con
tract to carry the mail to Kenai
via dogteam and with good luck
the round trip could be complet
ed in a month. Present day meth
ods should reduce the trip to a
matter of hours.
Mr. Larsen states that he will
endeavor to the utmost to ren
der the same faithful and effi
cient service to the public as
Mr. Charles A. Sheldon has done
for so many years.
Mrs. Augustine Boe left Sew
ard this morning for Seattle,

Parties and Pranks
On Hallowe'en
(Continued from Page 1)
and black. These all were the
handwork of the children.
Little Red Riding Hood with
basket of goodies and Little Bo
Peep with crook in hand stepped
out of “Mother Goose” to at
tend. Mickey Mouse and a good
sized monkey had difficulty
managing long tails. Little old
ladies in black and white min
gled with the younger genera
tion. Jack in the Box waved
large ears, a pirate bold held
his own with good old Robin
Hood, resplendent in forest
green tunic and bow and arrow.
Witches and ghosts milled
around among numerous Roy
Rogers and coyboys and a fairy
or two added a touch of dainti
ness to the picture. The Devil
himself w^s much in evidence,
complete with horns and pitch
fork.
Pictures were taken by the
Alaska Shop with and without
masks and will be on sale there
within a few days.
The Seward Kindergarten
most sincerely thanks the mo
thers and grandmothers who so
generously donated wonderful
Hallowe’en cookies, candy and
punch, without which a party
is not a party.
PRANKS AT MINIMUM
Parents cooperated with the
Police Department this year in
holding the playing of pranks
to a minimum. It was too much
to expect that youngsters would
forego the opportunity to turn
over garbage cans, move the
racks, soap windows and in
dulge in other annoying but
harmless pranks.
“Trick-or-treaters” were out
in force, but most houses were
well prepared with bribes of
candy, cookies or apples.
A couple of wrecks were left
on Fourth Avenue for the police
to remove. Tires were left flat
here and there, and Dick Beiss
ner chased a disappearing signal
flare all over town.
Word received this week by
Mrs. Walter Blue from Mr. and
Mrs. N. F. Branchard says
the Blanchards have taken up
residence in Denver, Colo., and
have purchased an up-and-com
ing locksmith business in that
city.
MRS. IRENE HOLDEN TO
LEAVE FOR STATES
Mrs. Irene Holden, one of the
well known and highly respect
ed women of the Kenai Penin
sula recently sold her roadhouse
at Moose Pass to Mr. and Mrs.
H. Martin Soper who were to
take possession on‘Nov. 1.
After spending a few days vis
iting with friends in Seward and
Anchorage Mrs. Holden will
drive Outside to spend Thanks
giving with her daughter, Mrs.
Wm. Daniger of St. Anthony,
Idaho. She will spend the Christ
mas holidays with her mother
and brothers near Redding, Cal.
Mr. Mel Horner, who has been
associated with Mrs. Holden at
Moose Pass, will accompany her
as far as Idaho and then fly from
there to Indiana where he will
visit with relatives over the holi
days. Mr. Horner plans to spend
the remainder of the winter in.
Southern California.
WANT TO SEE A LAPIDARY
HOBBY SHOP?
Russell Norton of 336 Sixth
Avenue has a complete lapidary
hobby shop which he brought
to Seward from the Oregon
coast two years ago.
Mr. Norton has the shop all
set up and invites anyone inter
ested to come in any evening
and see how gem stones are cut
and polished, and jewelry made
from them.
Norton became interested in
his fascinating hobby as result
of his studies in geology and
minerology.
