Neward Versus Alaska
Seward Is a Splendid-Looking Town
—Creates Favorable Impression
Visitors.
“First of all I ‘wish to say a word
of appreciation for the opportunity
extended me, to be a guest at your
chamber luncheon today,” remarked
H. C. Whitehead, business man from
Newark, N. J., who was a brief vis
itor in Seward yesterday while the
Admiral Watson wa3 in port. “I
have been in Alaska only about five
days and I want to say that already
I am a booster. Another thing, tho
Mr. Campbell did not so state in his
remarks before you, he has been one
of the prominent members of the
Assembly for the North State for
two years, and I feel his efforts,
with regard to the Alaska mail ser
vice, will be productive of results.
Makes Good Comparison.
“When I think of my town, New
ark, in which there are 70,000 peo
ple within a radius of two square
miles, and think of Alaska, which
according to figures, show there are
10,000 square miles for every indi
vidual in the Territory, I am amaz
ed!
“I suppose Alaskans are constantly
hearing the ravings of the enthusi
astic visitors, but have to admit Al
aska has made a tremendous im
pression on me. It is a wonderful
revelation to me and the superlative
beauty is astounding. As Mr. Camp
bell stated in his talk before you,
each day seems to excel the pre
vious one, as we travel along.
Beaulieu Suggestion Good.
“The suggestion put forward by
Mr. Beaulieu, a few moments ago,
with reference to prospective visit
ors to Alaska, who seek informa
tion regarding itineraries, is of much
merit. The tremendously rich en
dowment of nature, visible on every
hand in Alaska, is marvelous. I
had no conception of the beauties of
the country To properly advertise
and make public ways and means of
seeing your territory, to that
great company of uninitiated in the
States, would mean a wonderful help
to you.
Seward, Swell Town.
“I want to congratulate you on
your splendid-looking town. Sew
ard from the vessel, as we steamer
thru Harding Entrance into Resur
rection Bay, created a most favor
able impression on not only myself
but from several other people on
board the steamer.
Weekly Meeting Fine.
“These weekly meetings of the
local chamber accrues to the better
ment of the town and surrounding
community. All over the land it is
now the custom to hold weekly
meetings of civic organizations for
men are beginning to realize, the
middle of the day, is the best period
for exercising the element of ser
vice. This service to the communi
ty by the business men of the town,
comes back a hundred-fold. This as
sertion is based on practical ground,
and is daily being proven in other
localities. The benefits to be reach
ed by an organization, such as you
have formed in Seward, will lead
to a broader, bigger and better com
munity life. One must put first, in
unselfish service to the community,
before results come back, and as I
stated a moment ago, they will come
back a hundred-fold.”

LOCAL DISTRICT
IS SUCCESSFUL
DR. AND MRS. BRANDS GET
MOOSE, BEAR* AND SHEEP
NOW AFTER “BROWNIES
Three sheep, three bear and two
moose, the result of three weeks’
hunting in Kenai peninsula, was the
grand total of the big game hunt of
Dr. W. Brands of Johnstown, Pa.,
who, accompanied by Mrs. Brands,
which was completed a few days
ago. Dr. and Mrs. Brands have gone
to King Cove, with Jack Otis, guide,
where they will seek a good speci
men of brown bear. The guides and
packers on the Kenai hunt, returned
to Seward yesterday on the steamer
Alaska from the Westward. It was
explained previous arrangements had
been made with Otis, otherwise the
party returning yesterday would
have remained. The guides and
packers returning yesterday were A1
Peel, Jack Lean, Alex Bolam and
Frank Revelle. The specimens se
cured on the peninsula were brot
to Seward on the steamer.
Hunt Near Tastumena Lake
From Seward the party went down
the Kenai river to Cook Inlet thence
across to Kussilolf river, which was
followed up to Lake Tastumena
where the sheep were shot. They
then hunted around the South fork
of Indian river for moose and bear,
thence back to the lake and to Fun
ny river.
Mr. Peel said yesterday that Dr.
and Mrs Brands were exceptionally
fine people and they enjoyed to the
utmost, their first hunt on Kenai. It
is thought they will be returning
from the Westward within a couple
of weeks.

August 7, is a little 15-year-old Italian
girl, Alice Ametia Veracco. Laggren
and his wife adopted the child, an or
phan, in 1919. The first Mrs. Lag
gren died last Christmas.
