TRYING IT ON THE DOG
The program of suppression of the liquor traffic
has been vindicated. The advocates of Mr. V olstead s
bone dry Utopia may point to Alaska and with a wave
of the hand say: “Look, we have closed the redlight dis
tricts and the Alaskan’s will no longer have a place
where they may purchase liquor.”.
Alaska is a fortunate possession of Uncle Sam.
Whenever some momentous problem arises it is the sig
nal for the “holier than thou” brigade to hold the Ter
ritory up as a horrible example and then proceed to ad
minister a few more drastic orders, see that they are
obeyed, wind up the clock, put out the cat and tell the
nation “it is finished.” .
How the closing of the restricted districts will ef
fect the sale of liquor is one too deep, for the average
mind to grasp. It would appear less difficult to attack
a problem where it was concentrated than where it was
spread all over the landscape, such as the foimei lesi
dents of the restricted area are now spread under var
ious camouflages.
While, to some extent, one looks more with pity
than scorn upon the scarlet women of the redlight dis
trict, society has the right to demand that they remain
in the proper environment. It would appear that they
were willing to conform to this rule until the order came
from Washington. „ .
And back of it all is the sinister shadow of the del
egate who with one hand rakes in his large, yearly sti
pend and with the other hand paints a horrible picture
of the land he is supposed to uphold. Remember Ketchi
kan!

“The wicked flee when no man pursueth,” but so
did the innocent in a recent case. Johnny Dirocco- 13,
of Tuckahoe, N. J., shooting at a hawk, saw a.distant
man fall and lie motionless. Visions of a hangman s
noose caused Johnny to flee and hide in a swamp for 30
hours until a searching party found him. His bullet had
overturned a stuffed scarecrow.

A barrel of fun from beginning
to end was the feature of the Hal
lowe’en Frolic given in the S. A. C.
hall Saturday night and the efforts
of the social committee of the Sew
ard Athletic club to entertain Sew
ard and all visitors certainly met
with success.
Upon stepping into the hall one
immediately found themselves in
the midst of a gay crowd whose in
terest was held by the wheel of
chance a secluded fortune-teller in
a desert tent, refreshment booth, a
fish pond, and a booth wherein j
novelty caps, pop etc., were found j
in abundance. One of the most j
interesting features of the even
ing’s program, however, was the
rivalry among the four colleges,
each of whom entered contestants
in the many novel and amusing
games and races, with cheering and
rooting from the side-rimes, “pep”
practices, and “razzing” all inter
mingled. The contest among the
colleges, was, literally, more fun
than a circus, and while Seemore ’
College, Hoo-ie University, and Do
little College ran close honors, the :
highest score went to Hardknocks
Institution, w;ith the presentation
of a loving cup the reward.
Almost immediately after the
college “meet”, a most appropriate
and clog dances was presented by
talented Seward youngsters, which
| program of witch-dances, Spanish
received a great ovation from the
entire audience. An auction sale
and the giving away of a live tur- '
key attracted those lucky at games i
of chance, and then Swanson’s |
Sweet Serenaders poured forth j
their repertoire of snappy fox trots
and dreamy waltzes while almost !
everyone joined the throng of danc
ers which filled practically the en
tire floor.
A prize waltz and fox trot was
presented as well, many couples
entering each contest. Not until ;
: past midnight did the fun cease j
land the crowd disband—with the
Frolic a decided success.
The various committees who -
helped present the entertainment, |
ithe willingness of those who served
in the various booths, and the do
nations and aid given by towns
people all helped to fulfill the ex
pectations of the large crowd which
I thoroughly enjoyed itself at this i
;long-looked-forward-to event, and
; it is hoped the social committee
| will be as active this winter.

KARL DANE
That made one of the greatest hits ever recorded arc?
again to be seen in a whirlwind comedy drama.
“DETECTIVES”
A story of a bell-boy and a hotel detective whose rivalry
in trying to run down the crook causes no end of com
ical situations. This is entertainment pure and simple, a
laugh-feast all the way through.
With it we will show you a great comedy that the name
Whiz Bang would suit' perfectly.
