BUILDING SUBSTANTIALLY
As evidence of his faith in the ultimate goal of the
City of Seward, the announcement of P. C. McMullen,
local business man and Mayor of Seward, of erection
«f a concrete building on the main thoroughfare, is
most welcomed at this time and is but one gesture of
civic confidence and growth to be made public today;
idler building deals are pending.
Mayor McMullen’s announcement may be accept
ed as an indication that spring is just around the cor
ner; the season of the year when the world assumes
a rosier hue than usual. And, on the other hand* an
announcement of this sort should be the signal for)
fliers to hearken to, with respect toward building forj
a bigger and better Seward, the best litle town in the:
wvrld, bar none.
Congratulations, Mr. McMullen.

Ted Harward of Cordova, appears to have a poorj
opinion of an unknown neighbor as was evidenced in
a recent item: “I want the skunk-faced, fulminating,
decayng-souled, ingratious, gall-infected, vilipendent,
gleeking, sibilocious, odious, carping, jaundiced-eyed,
<gpawnng salmon-bellied caval who swamped my boat to
-come and see me if he is man enough.”
