Former Soldier Plans
Locating TO Westward
Mr. Arthur Skulstad, brother of
Tom Skulstad, the prosperous cat
tle and fox raiser of Seminofsky Is
land, located in the southern end of
the Shumagin group, accompanied
his brother to Sand Point on the last
trip of the Starr. Mr. Skulstad will
assist his brother in the rapidly
growing business. This is his first
trip to the Westward where he ex
pects to locate permanently. Mr.
(Skulstad spent two enlistments in
the U. S. Army being discharged re
cently.
ALASKA TO TEXAS OIL
• James Malloy, miner of the Fair
banks region, arrived in Seward Sat
urday en route to Texas. His fath
er. William Malloy, also well known
Alaska, wired his son to come out
immediately as he has a good oil
deal under way.
YOUTH MAKES FIRST TRIP
When Harry Bentley, jr., Fair
banks lad, steps ashore at Seattle
this week from the S.S. Victoria, it
will be with some anxiety for it will
be the first time he has ever set
foot on any soil, foreign to Alaska.
He was born in the Interior 20 years
ago.
Still, this would probably have been
a harder winter for menckens if
there had been no babbitts.
[DUR GREAT FEARS
COUNT'EM
Four great fears accompany you from
your home to your work and remain
with you throughout the day—
1* The fear of your family being
left unprovided for;
2. The fear of a penniless old aga
for yourself;
3. The fear of loss of income from
total or partial disablement;
4. The fear of losing what you
have accumulated.
TVouId it be worth anything to you to have these
fearc eliminated from your life—to know that you
were shielded by a complete circle of protection?
A line to us will bring yoiMull details without com*
mitting you to any action.

Joe Badger Hangs New
Photographs In Lobby;
Coal Mine, Trophies
Among the new photographs which
will shortly adorn the walls of the
lobby of the Van Gilder hotel, will
be a panorama view' of hundreds of
game trophies, 'procured in Africa
and Alaska, by Chas. V. Hoover,
nationally known big game hunter,
who is well known to many Seward
residents. Mrs. Hoover spent a con
siderable period in Seward last sum
mer during the intervening time that
Mr. Hoover hunted in Southeastern
Alaska and Canada.
The lafge photograph is ar beauty
and adds much to general game
adornment of the hotel lobby. It is
estimated there are at least two hun
dred different trophies in the group
picture, all admirably arranged.
Other new photographs, recently
hung up 'by Joe Badger, proprietor
of the establishment, are three' pic
tures taken at Suntrana in which are
shovm huge lignite coal seams, just
above the mine proper, running along
for hundreds of feet. At the foot
of the coal cliff’s nestle the mine
buildings in which are included, the
new' dormitory, which houses 40 men,
and the recently constructed mov
ing picture theater. The school,
which was also recently built, does
not appear in the photograph.
Air. Badger has the three pictures
hung in a unique manner, in that
they are suspended directly below
one another, making a very attrac
tive group and one which will attract
considerable attention from the trav
eling public.
CORDOVA SEEKS
INTERCITY GAME
WITH SEWARD
MAYOR OF CORDOVA WRITES MA
YOR OF SEWARD REQUEST
ING SERIES GAMES
As was announced sometime ago by
the S. A. Club officials. The Cordova
Athletic Association is desirous of
playing inter-city games of all kinds
with the local organization. In the
mail, just received, L. V. Ray, mayor
of Seward, is in receipt of the follow
ling letter from E. V. Boyle, mayor of
the Copper City:
Cordova, Alaska,
January 26, 1926.
L. V. RAY, Esq.,
Mayor of Seward,
Seward, Alaska.
My dear Mr. Ray:
I understand that Seward has or
ganized a basketball team and I have
heard indirectly that they would like
j to play a series of three games writh
| Cordova. If such is the case, I am
sure that Cordova would be glad to
enter into such an arrangement with
a view of having Seward play a se
ries of three games here and Cordo
va likewise playing a return series in

The expense of sending a team from
Seward or Cordova (comprising from
eight to ten men to a team) would be
approximately $450*. It is possible that
either town might have some difficul
ty in ✓raising this amount from the
proceeds of three games. However,
some arrangement might be made
whereby the visiting team would bear
one-third of the expenses and the
home team two-thirds. This method
is only a suggestion and probably a
more suitable plan could be worked
out later on.
If Seward is interested in this mat
ter, I would appreciate you taking ap
propriate action to get this matter un
der way, and. advise me of the results
obtained. I am sure each town would
take' a keen interest in a friendly con
test of this nature, and it might lead
to building up an annual series of ath
letic contests, including basketball,
Very sincerely yours,
E. V. BOYLE,
Mayor of Cordova
The letter has since been referred
to the directors of the Seward Club
and action, of some sort will be taken
at a special meeting which will be
called shortly.

Looking Ahead 1
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northfiand, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm faith
in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with
Alaskan progress can accomplish much. Looking ahead to still
greater things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one
way that a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pains
takingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and, that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
