Community Club Be
Started by Legion
There has been for some time a pre
I vailing opinion among business men
of the community that steps should be
taken to provide something on the line
of a community club or a place where
the men of the community might meet
and discuss matters of common good.
To provide in addition, an opportu
nity for visitors or tourists to write
letters or rest comfortably, with an
opportunity of reading or otherwise
entertaining themselves.
With this point in view, the Ameri
can Legion has rented the quarters
under the Bank of Seward building
for the purpose of using them for a
“Community Club.” All members of
the Legion will be members of the
Club, and all the men of the commu
; nity will be asked to signify their will
ingness to associate with the Legion in
carrying on this good work.
The purposes of the club will be:
To promote interest in tennis, base
ball and all sports.
To promote social activities in the
tow n.
To entertain visitors.
All matters relating to the good of
this community will b:i handled, altho
l the club purposes to work hand in
hand with the Ladies’ Clubs, Fraterni
ties and Chamber of Commerce, and
j aid in carrying out any plan for com
! munity welfare.
The membership will be limited to
i men of the community. The dues will
he one dollar per month, and as soon
as possible, probably early in April, a
meeting will be called for the purpose
of arranging a constitution and by’
laws. It is believed this good work
will prove very popular. Magazines,
card tables, and games will be avail
; able for entertainment nearly every
! evening.

Knik Arm for the government, arriv

We’ll Go No More a-Roving
, So we’ll go no more a-roving so late
into the night,
Though the heart be still as loving,
And the moon be still as bright.
For the sword outwears its sheath,
And the soul wears out the breast,
1 And the heart must pause to breathe,
And love itself have rest.
| Though the night was made for loving,
And the day returns too soon,
I Yet we’ll go no more a-roving
By the light of the moon.—Byron.

where good eats are very rare; so
fill up your lunch bags with fresh

the big ship’s waiting for you, just
go to your berth with a lunch bag, it
