You folks didn’t believe me
when I insisted a month ago that
spring was coming. Well she came
on Tuesday this year, and have
you noticed the people out work
ing in gardens and yards?
Another sign is the good looking
clothes. IJave you noticed that
Seward women when they do de
cide to dress for an occasion show
■ very good taste and up-to-date
styles? It was very noticable at tiie
woman’s club luncheon yesterday.
A third sign of spring is the in
ordinate number of big bumbiy
mosquitoes whizzing around es
pecially where there is any sort of
excavation. They must come out
of the ground.
Yes, spring is really here and al
tho we can expect some rainy and
duil day a we certainly can lake ad
vantage of the golden days,
i Now, before we know it, summer
| will be with us and with summer
the big event of Fourth of July.
We want to make it a really big
celebration this year as a fore
runner of years to come. There is
no reason why Seward should not
become the Mecca for the Territory
every summer on the Fourth. It.
j will take a great deal of work and
j perfect cooperation to make it so.
i Please—do—make it your business
I to attend tlie committee meeting
Sunday night at the Legion Club,
or signify your willingness to help j
during ttie celebration. There is to I
be no personal expense, the com
mittee will foot all the bills, but
. workers who will donate an hour
or two of time are badly needed.

Is the Catholic Mind Hide-Bound?
In the little store below the
street level, the delicatessen dealer
figures his profits on the basic'
principle that two and two make \
four. He has to, or he'll go wrong
in his accounts.
Behind the mahogany desk, the
expert engineer plans the mam
moth sky-scraper on the basic
principle that two and two make
four. He has to or his building
will never stand.
The humblest Catholic lawman
and the wisest theologian worship
on the same basic principle—that
Christ founded one Church which,
like its Founder, is infallible in
matters to do with the soul.
If the theologian's mind is hide
bound because he must be guided
by the same religious dogma as
the layman’s, then the engineer’s
mind is hide-bound because 'lie
dare not deviate from the delica
tessen dealer’s mathematical dog
ma.
The dogma of the Catholic
Church are comparatively few—
fewer than those of science and
art—fewer than those of a profes
sion or a business.
You can't even play a good game
of golf without following the basic
principles of the game. Then why
should anyone indict the Catholic
who does the same thing in the
vital matter of saving his soul?
Every belief and practice of the
Church has behind it sound logic.
It is only because things Catholic
are misunderstood that they are
criticized by the sincere non-Cath
olic and such criticism, based an
a false understanding is fatal to
the friendly community relations
which are essential in a working
democracy.
If it's anything Catholic, ask a

AGAINST LOSS
OR THEFT
Safeguarding money against 1
loss when one travels is as |
important as protecting it by |
deposit when at home—and |
is just as easy. You merely |
convert your travel funds §
here, before you start, into |
American Express Travelers 1
Cheques. They are readily |
spendable as cash, and if lost |
or stolen, the amount in- |
volved is refunded to yon.
The cost of the protection
is hut 75c on each $100.
Minimum 40c. There is no
time limit on use. Thous- t \
ands of people carry these
protective Cheques vchen
away from home, and find >
them invaluable. This is
one of the bank’s services
to the traveling public.
