SEWARD PLANS
BIG CELEBRATION
ON JULY FOURTH
(Continued from Page One
already suggested boat and canoe
races; sprints and long distance run
ning—Including a race to the top of
Marathon mountain—greased pig
race, and many others which will be
announced later. In the sport events
prizes will be given out to the men,
women and children participating.
Both halls will more than likely be
procured for the evening of the 4th.
This same committee is in charge of
the music and in this connection it
will be news to most residents of
the city that a band leader, W. J.
Armstrong, has been in Seward for
three months and at the meeting last
evening, attended and very kindly
offered his help in organizing the
brass band. The music was sent for
this morning and will arrive in Sew
ard on the next train from Nenana,
Mr. Armstrong’s former home and
where he organized a brass band
last year. It was stated there were
ample musicians in the city but the
music and leader were lacking. Sew
ard will have them both before the
week is ended and before another
week has ended, at least a ten or
twelve piece band will have been cre
ated. i
The decoration committee’s duties
are to talk up the decorating of all
buildings along the main thorough
fares; that the colors are displayed
prominently in all sections of the
city and that shop windows are dress
ed up in the holiday colors. The
streets of the city are to be decorat
ed.
Several business houses have sig
nified their intention of having floats
for the Fourth of July, providing a
parade would be held. This will
be done and a committee was ap
pointed last evening to get busy on
this end of the program, at once. It
is hoped every car owner in Sew
ard will decorate their auto and join
in the parade. The brass band,
clowns, lodge organizations and oth
ers are expressed to be in the line
of march.
The entertainment committee will
attend to it that there will be am
ple numbers presented. Singers, mu
sic, and vaudeville stunts are but
few of the many acts which will
greet the public.
Madam Fatima, the raucious squak
of street fakirs; fortune telling gyp
sies; hit the colored gent on the
top and win a cigar, will be listed
among the street concessions, ac
cording to this committee. A nom
inal charge is to be made for choice
locations, which money will help in
swe.hing the Fourth of July fund.
The housing committee will have
their hands full- greeting visitors to
Seward and making the necessary
arrangements for. their aecommoda
'ions during their stay thruoui the
lesiivities.
I he puolicity committee wlli broad
cast the news of the big celebration,
to the surrounding districts, inviting
all to come to Seward and help cele
brate. Novel means of attracting
the attention of out-of-town foik to
Seward on the Fourth, will be pro
moted.
To give one an idea of the num
ber of people who will be in Sew
ard for the celebration, it was stat
ed at the meeting last evening that
the Northwestern will be in port that
day with 175 passengers; Joe Imlach
will be bringing over from his can
neries at least 50; a number from
Latouche have signified their inten
tion of journeying to Seward for the
Fourth; a railroad bridge crew of
approximately 30 men will be at
work two miles out of town; Knights
Island tie crews are coming; about
15 men will come in from Drier Bay;
there will be many from up the line;
the Bureau of Public Roads crews,
one at Moose Pass and the others
on the new road out of Seward, will
come to town and in addition to this
a committee is endeavoring to get
the cooperation of the Alaska Rail
road, in the matter of a special rate,
to run an excursion to Seward for
the Fourth of July. Altogether there
should be a number of hundreds of
visitors attending the celebration,
A committee is to call on the local
woman’s club seeking their coopera-.
tion for the Fourth. It is hoped ' a
flower exhibition can be held at that
time.
The cooperation of the local pub
lic is urged by the various commit
tees appointed and suggestions per
taining to assisting in the pleasure
of the day will be gratefully receiv
ed. All communications should be
addressed to the committees as nam
ed.
