PULL TOGETHER AND WEAR THE FEATHER
Nothing is more important to Seward than the pros
perity of the people in our community and nothing will
contribute so much toward the prosperity of a community
as cooperation. Work together. If you can help your
neighbor without injury to yourself, help him; you will
profit by it in the end even though you can see no direct
benefit from your act. Don’t be a bunch of static dis
rupting the even flow of cooperation in your home town
or community if you want to prosper. Seward, as a whoje,
is just entering into the greatest era of prosperity in his
tory if we will only get-together and stay together and
forget the few personalities which generally exist, in
working for the general good of al.
WITH HEART AND HAND
In anything—it’s teamwork that counts. No matter
how strong the individual, he becomes more powerful
with team co-operation—teamwork.
Have you joined the home town team? Are you
making your co-citizens realize your desire to assist them
commercially and socially? Are you helping them to
feel the advantages of living in this good town of ours?
Are you extending a cordial heart and hand?
If you do—they will pass the word along—it becomes
an endless chain. The teamwork is strong and will thus
attract others—who in turn will lend their hands* talents
resources and energies to mutual civic progress.
Now is a good time to “join up”—the initiation fee
is small—and with the resolve to do your part, the dues
will come back to you in personal dividends. #

Officials of the Alabama Power Company were
perturbed recently by seeing a moving picture of dedi
cation ceremonies at their great Cherokee dam, which
will form the world’s largest lake. The location was stat
ed to be “near Tallahassee, Fla.,” when it is really in Ala
bama. The Birmingham News commented on the error
under the captain “A Dam Shame!”

SHIP'S ORCHESTRA
TO PRESENT DICE
TOMORROW NIGHT
ADMIRAL WATSON MUSICIANS
PRESENTING PUBLIC HOP
AT ODD FELLOWS
Arrangements were made last week
while the Admiral Watson was in port
for the ship’s orchestra to give a pub
lic dance in Seward tomorrow, (Tues
day) night, at Odd Fellows hall. The
vessel is due to return to Seward to
morrow from the westward and will
proceed south at about 9 o’clock on
Wednesday evening following the ar
rival of the train from the Interior.
However, the dance holds every pro
mise of bedng of exceptional merit
owing to the splendid new orchestra,
the members of whom are students
from the Washington State College,
calling themselves Couger syncopators.
Prior to the present trip on the Wat
son they have been filling a contract
on the S.S. Emma Alexander, of the
Pacific Steamship Company.
The orchestra will be augmented by
J. B. Burford, leader of the well known
“Alaskans,” the popular dance orch
estra of Juneau. Mr. Burford is mak
ing a round trip on the Watson, on
business matters and has been taking
his turn with the ship’s orchestra
playing a saxophone. The music to
morrow night will consist ot drums,
piano, violin and sax, and the chap
playing at the piano often doubles
on the saxophone.
As the Watson came to its mooring
alongside of the dock last week^ there
was an exceptionally large crowd of
local people on thewharf to greet the
incoming vessel. At that time the^or
chestra which always plays arriving
and departing from ports, made quite
a hit with the locals by the syncopat
ing airs which were wafted 'over the
water. The suggestion was made to
them when they landed why not hire
a hail Upon their return and put on
their stuff right. Acting upon the sug
gestion they did and tomorrow night
is the evening set for a general good
time.
