The story is going tfround
that because the Cradle Rocker
expressed regrets over the ne
cessity of a curfew in SewaVd,
and a few residents have regis
tered objections, the curfew will
be dropped.
Sorry, Kids! No soap! The
curfew deal still stands.
What we are trying to do is
establish a good recreation pro
gram for everybody. A full
scale, year round Teen-age can
teen, athletics, dances, arts and
crafts, etc.
Among the interesting acti
vities so far suggested are an
archery club, rifle club, indoor
tennis or badminton, ice rink,
ski club close to town, roller
skating, of course, and other
smaller activities.
The Seward Athletic Associa
tion is preparing a program, but
in order to be effective, plans
must be well laid, experienced
directors must be found, and

IT WILL COST MONEY.
Most everybody will admit
that a seven day week program
such as this cannot be carried
on indefinitely with volunteer
help. Many are willing to de
vote some time, but no one is
able to give the full amount of
time necessary unless he is be
ing paid for it and it is a real
job that should carry a salary.
We are fortunate to have a
person in Seward who has re
cently arrived from the States
and has long experience with
a good university background
and training in this very work.
Mrs. Edith Skinner is available,
is educated, has the experience,
is well recommended, and is
ideal for the job. She would
need assistance, volunteer as
sistance for special projects,
and the paid assistance oi' a man
in the roller rink and for main
tenance.
All this would require a size
able fund to initiate, but it
could be done.
Now—we have the need, the
building, the volunteers, the
personnel, the population. All
vve need is the money.
There will be a meeting soon
to discuss ways and means. In
the meantime, let’s talk over
the idea among ourselves, so
that, if a majority of young
people and parents think it a
good one, be ready to go all out
to raise the moncyw to put it
over. Let us know how you
feel. Talk with Van Nyman,
Dick Beisner. Talk with the
business men and Chamber of
Commerce. Let us know what
you want and how far you are
willing to go.
The Seward Woman’s Club
will meet at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. George Green at Jesse Lee
Cottage on Thursday, Dec. 8.
This is the Christmas party
meeting and all women are in
vited to come and bring a gift
for exchange.
