TOWN’S BEST ASSET
Beautiful cities, towns and villages attract people.
They attract permanent residents, they attract tourists,
and tliey attract trade. It is natural that a person se
lecting a trading center will choose a town that is
beautiful and clean in preference to one that is un
sightly and dirty, if other conditions are anywhere
near equal.
New houses and buildings in Seward show better
architecture. In the business section the old dilapitated
buildings are slowly vanishing. Unsightly lots and fen
ces are now few. Our streets, while not the best, have
been passable this summer. It is anticipated next spring
will see the main streets and avenue undergo intense
repair.
Seward needs more lawns, more trees, shrubbery
and flowers. An example has long been set by Arcade
Park, and two or three other smaller beauty spots
within the city limits.
It behooves the authorities of any community, as
well as each individual citizen, to make the most of
their opportunities for improving the appearance of
the place in which they live. During the coming winter
plan to beautify your property, or home, next spring.
Beauty and cleanliness are a town’s best assets.
A THOUGHFUL SUGGESTION
The suggestion of Will Rogers, published a couple
of days ago, for admirers of Sir Thomas Lipton to
contribute $1 each toward the purchase of a loving
cup as a mark of esteem and the affection in which he
is held by Americans, was a most thoughful one.
For the fifth time the gallant Englishman failed j
to lift the American’s cup, his latest challenger, the
Shamrock, having been defeated in four straight races
by the American sloop Enterprise.
Sir Thomas Lipton is now 81 years old but an
nounced last week he was not yet through; that he will
again make an effort to capture the coveted trophy,
which has eluded him for 31 years.
His fine sportsmanship has won the admiration j
of the world, however, and the esteem in which he is |
held by his fellowmen is worth more than a hundred j
prize cups.

Hard times make more conversation than good!
times.
Real spirits were discovered in an Alaskan cem
etery. A moonshiner had established his still there.
Aimee’s _ “four-square gospel” would appeal to
more people in the states if it guaranteed four square
meals a day.
We can imagine that the voice of some of these al
leged Alaskan politicians will shortly fill halls so com
pletely that the audience will walk out to give room.
A new machine can exert a pressure of 300 tons to
the square inch, chortles Sourdough Bill, who opines
that even such a contrivance could not squeeze money \
out of some people.
