Seward got under way for the 4th
of July celebration just one week
and better than most Alaskan towns,
which is a whole lot considering that

making strong bids for visitors to
come to their respective communi
ties. Judging from the pep displayed
by the committees and the interest
manifested by local citizens, the cele
bration promises to be an “eye open
er.”
