EDITORIAL
The Seward Advertising Bulletin
Our readers have been wait
ing for comment from the Rec
ord on our new competitor in
the newspaper business—some
hail the new venture with glee,
ofliers with skepticism.
We wouTd be less than sport
ing if we did not gretft our com
petitor with a friendly word, and
of all things that the Record,
its publisher and editor have
been accused, vve have never
been called unsportsmanlike.
Our friends should be success
ful in their venture far several
r< asons as we see it. Not to pry
into another's business, but be
cause we know the perils of
small newspaper business, we
are certain of these things:
1. They should succeed be
cause they have no large capital
investment in either building,
equipment or slock. The oaper
is being printed by another Ter
l it n'ial weekly in a neighboring
city; consequently the new pub
lisher can operate on that print
er's investment. They will not be
ret mred 1 i pay any taxes in
Seward, either personal or real
on their business, or license tax.
That is fine for them, but a little
rough on the Seward taxpayers.
The fact that local Seward ad
vertisers are sending a sizeable
sum each week out of town for
the benefit of Cordova taxpay
ers while they, themselves, pay a
rather exhorbilant tax at home,
apparently does not enter the
picture.
2. The new paper is selling
for 15 cents per issue, while the
locally printed pant r sells for
10 cents as well as both Anchor
age dailies. This will, of course,
bring added revenue to the pub
lisher.
a. Employee'associations with
two or more Seward business
houses assure the new publish
ers of standing ads, which have
been withdrawn from the Rec
ord, and arc greatly to their
benefit.

"He Had Insurance In The New York Life"
IIis old horse died and his mule went lame,
And he lost his cow in a poker game.
A cyclone came one summer day
And blew his house and barn away.
Then an earthquake followed to make it good
And swallowed the ground where tne house had stood
And then the mortgage man came 'round
And heartlessly claimed the hole in the ground.
This shock was so great tiiat he up and died
And his widow and children wept and cried.
But something was left for the kids and wife—
For he had insurance in the NEW YORK LIFE.

Mrs. Eugene Mulhearn October

JUNIOR V/OMEN HOLD
HALLOWE'EN SOCIAL
A Hallowe'en party featured
the social meeting of the Seward
Junior Women's Club Tuesday
night at tin' home of Mrs. Frank
Perry. Mrs. Perry and Mrs.
James Kirkpatrick were hostess
es.
As a change from the usual
entertainment, members brought
beautifulh decorated box lunch
es which were shuffled so that
no one got her own box. This
was supplemented by salad and
coffee by the1 hostesses. Several
group games were played.
A short business meeting was
called to d'seuss handling the
Boy Scout fund drive. The group
agreed to finish up the drive.
Also a decision was made to
sponsor a Brownie troop in Sew
ard. They also reaffirmed the
pr\ vious date set for a bake sale.
