CITY $11,600 RICHER
TODAY
The City Treasurer, Aaron Er
ickson, received a check today
from the Territorial Department
of Taxation for $11,600, which
is a refund from the liquor tax.
Even before the receipt of this
check, the City of Seward was
operating on the black side of
the books, and with all bills
paid, but it makes anybody feel
good to deposit a check for
$11,600.
Many a driver carves his
tombstone trying to chisel in
traffic.
Don’t advertise your troubles.
There is absolutely no market
for them.
AFTER FORTY
A pilot knocked at the pearly
gates .
His face was scarred and old.
He stood before the man of fate
For admission to the fold.
“What have you done,’’ St.
Peter asked,
“To gain admission here?”
“I’ve been a bush pilot, Sir,” he
said,
“For many and many a year.”
The pearly gates swung open
wide;
St. Peter touched a bell.
“Come in,” he said, “and choose
a harp,
You’ve had your share of
hell.”
Did You Register?
Cath olic In formalinn
We all have pull in heaven—
I knew tiie Governor, so I
wrote him direct for a legitimate
personal favor.
I knew the Governor’s mother.
I knew he loved her. I knew
she therefore had honorable
influence with him. So I wrote
her to plead my cause with her
son.
I knew, too, an old family
servant whom the Governor had
pensioned for life for services
worthily rendered. So I wrote
him to say a word in my behalf.
Now the Governor alone could
grant my request and perhaps
my plea to him would have been
all-sufficient But it couldn’t
hurt to use all legitimate “pull”
in his mansion It seemed wise.
1 did it.
God alone can provide for
the needs of His creatures, so
every Catholic prays to Him
first, in adoration and supplica
tion. But in our Father's house
there is Mary whom He honored
above all His creatures by in
viting her to become the mother
of His Divine Son, and at whose
| request Christ performed His
first earthly miracle in Cana of
I Galilee. In our Father’s house
there are the saints—servants
of God who are pensioned for
eternity for services worthily
rendered Mary. His Mother and
—
ours! The saints, His brothers
and sisters, and ours.
Pull in heaven? Why it's
tremendous! It's there waiting
for us, if we but ask. To us
Catholics it would seem waste
ful: it would seem unreason
able: it would seem downright
nonsense not to use all possible
heavenly pull to back up our
requests to God Almighty .
“Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us!” “All ye holy Saints
of God, pray for us!”
There is equally sound logic
behind every Catholic belief and
practice. Our purpose in pub
lishing these articles here each
week is not necessarily to per
suade our readers that our be
liefs are right, but rather to
persuade you that they are not
unreasonable, not superstitious,
not evil. It is only by creating
such mutual understanding and
trust that democracy can be
made to work in our community,
our country, our world.
If it's anything Catholic, ask a
Catholic!
