Alaska and Seward are about
to establish another "First time"
with the goodwill visit of Sew
ard, Nebraska and the series
of athletic exhibitions to be
given in the Alaskan city.
It is ironic that the constitu
ents of Sen. Hugh Butler, leader
of the opposition to Alaska
Statehood, are the first to come
to the Territory to see for them
selves just what there is up here,
and to show a spirit of friendli
ness never before attempted.
The party is primarily to parti
cipate in an interchange of bas
ketball. softball and bowling
matches, but the ten boys are
accompanied by twelve of the
leading business and profession
al men of their city. That it has
received approval of the State
government is indicated by a
Resolution passed by the Legis
lature to purchase the flag of
Nebraska to be presented in
Seward, Alaska. The Senator has
never bothered to make the ac
quaintance of the people whose

SQUARE SINNET. June IS
Valdez, Seward, Scldovia,

cause he so vigorously opposes.
If the people of Nebraska
take up the cudgels for their
friends and relatives in Alaska,
it is within the realm of pos
sibility that the influential Sen
ator might obey their instruc
tions and reverse his stand.
It is never necessary to sug
gest to the people of Seward that
they make an effort to be par
ticularly hospitable and friend
ly, as such an attitude is instinc
tive with the whole town. We
do hope, however, that every
resident will make it his busi
ness to become a committee of
one to prove to the Nebraskans
that Alaska is worthy of asso
ciation in their union of states.
W.S.C.S. ENTERTAINED BY
MRS. VICTOR MAHAN
The Woman's Society of Chris
tian Service met at the home of
Mrs. Victor Mahan Thursday
evening for their regular busi
ness meeting.
Mrs. Gladys Bogard, president
of the group, outlined plans for
the dinners to be served by var
ious organizations in the Metho
dist Church honoring the Sew
ard, Nebraska basketball team
during their first visit here the
first part of June.
A guest for the evening was
Mrs. Florence Thornton of Ket
chikan, who was returning from
Fairbanks after a stay of some
length and who was leaving for
her home at Ketchikan on the
Aleutian.
Miss Delia Gabriel was wel
comed back to the Society after
an absence of several months
vacation in the States. She spoke
briefly, highlighting some of the
interesting places she had visit
ed.
Mrs. Bogard announced that
installation of the new officers
of the W.S.C.S. would be held
in the church the evening of
June 7 with Rev. Charles Malin
officiating.
The evening ended with re
freshments served by the hostess
who was assisted by Miss Helen
Priebe.

How to simplify the job
of painting your barns
[STANDARD)
You can save all the work
of mixing colors if you use
Standard Shingle Stain to
coat bams or any other un
painted exterior wood sur
faces, such as fences and
lattice work. It comes, ready
to use, in three colors, red,
brown and green.
Standard Shingle Stain
penetrates, seals the wood
pores against dampness
and stops cracking and
warping. Unlike heavier
paints, it will not form
ridges on shingle butts to
retard water runoff.
Apply Standard Shingle
Stain with a brush or by
spraying. New shingles can
be dipped. Depending on
dryness of wood, 1 gallon
covers 90 to 125 square feet.
