IDEAL COMMUNITY BUILDERS
There are two types oi men anil
women who contribute most to the up
building- of a community. One is that
citizen who assists with service when
work is to be none to put forth the
things that will win people to come
here to invest, to live and to play.
The other is tnat citizen who is will
ing to do a fair share towards meet
ing the cost of a program which must
Be carried out in order to bring the
advantages of the community to the
notice of those who would come here.
Not every workman can pay. Not
every contributor can work. Some of
our citizens both work and pay.
There are a few of our citizens who
gain much from the activities of oth
ers, but who appear to believe they
are justified in withholding help, eith
er in service or in a financial way.
That kind of a person may not be
lieve it, but he is only so much dead
weight on others who are trying to
build up the town.
In the 1924 campaign by the Sew
ard Chamber of Commerce there is a
hope that many volunteers will come
forward, thus knitting the community
into a compact mass of supporters
whose combined service will carry the
town into its place as the metrop
olis of the railroad section and the
headquarters of Third division activi
ties. “Team work” will accomplish in
a year or two what would require a
long period of time to do without it.
And if we do not strive hard to make
the most of the great interest created
in Alaska by the Presidential visit,
we will have failed to utilize to the
utmost the force of the advertising
secured thereby.
A campaign for members to the lo
cal chamber is now being carried on.
It is in the hands of men who are giv
ing their time and their money for
the town’s benefit. They ought to find
a cordial welcome when they come.
Indeed, they should not be required to
call on citizens to join the chamber.
Every loyal, patriotic Sewardite should
be eager and willing to join.
If you do not care to take out a
membership card why not go to the (
Secretary and say, “Old chap, 1 have
j no time to devote to the chamber, but
: my money is at your service.”
You do not want to rise through the
efforts of others. Then why not join
the Chamber, or at least help it in a 1
financial way. |
M vNY PLAN 10 TAKE
TRIP TO WESTWARD 1
When the Chamber of Commerce 1
excursion sails to tne westward, the
j fret trip ol the Stair to the Bristol i
B :\ section, it. Y protab'e that many
nore firms will be represented than 1
was at first supposed. Many apjplica- i
tions have been received and it is now t
bo' < ved th it practically every busi- 1
noss house will be represented 1
STEAMSHIP REDONDO WILL
INAUGURATE NEW SERVICE
The Alaska Steamship Company’s
freighter Redonda will sail from Seat- '<
tie March 20, and from Seward about >
March 2!), calling at Seldovia, An- t
chorage and Kodiak, inaugurating the i
new service to the westward from | ^
Seward during the summer months. ! £
The Redondo is scheduled to sail from ^ 1
Seward every Saturday thereafter car- j 1
lying freight and passengers. 1
This gives Seward headquarters for
another boat, making three liners *
with their home ports here. The Starr 1
| the Redondo, and the Standard Oil
boat will add greatly to the shipping.
The reopening of the railroad for j
traffic is most welcome. To be without j)
news from the great interior for any j 1
length of time is a hardship on both 1
newspapers and population. 1
FIRE MEETING
A meeting of the Seward Volun- J
teer Fire Department will be held Fri- .
day night,, at 8 o’clock in the fire hall. !
All members requested to be present, j
