A .BEAUTIFUL DRIVE
| For the last two weeks motorists
| have been raving about the won
jderful drive over the Seward-Ke
I nai Lake Highway, and espec
ially at night—in the moonlight.
| The road is said to be in perfect
| shape with just enough snow seat
I tered about the scenery to make
| it sparkle and gleam beautifully.

The Seward Chamber of Com
merce is the recipient of much
sincere praise for their last week’s
special edition devoted to roads
and forests.
The first from out-of-town is
from the Anchorage Times which
hands the local live-wire organ
ization the following bouquet:
“The Seward Chamber of Com
merce sponsored a special edition
of the Gateway this week, the j
Tuesday issue being given over!
largely to a review of road build- j
ing activities in the Chugach!
National Forest area adjacent to
Seward. The issue is dedicated
to the road builders and contains
a number of special articles by
members of the chamber and a i
number "of half-tone illustrations
Including a half-page picture of
Seward and several maps. The
issue is a creditable one, both
to the chamber and to the Gate
way."
Richard Kuhlhoff, pioneer resi
dent of the Upper Tanana, is build
ing pens on his mink farm located
on the north bank of the Tanana
at Big Delta, and Paul Phillips at
20-Mile is also engaged in fur farm
ing having bought n stock of l'ur
bearing Chinchilla rabbits.
Ketchikan will be the next
convention city, in 1930, of the
Alaska Native Brotherhood.

THE GATEWAY
“Pistol” Pete, one of the best
known Oldtimers in the Terri
tory and a resident of Seward
for so many years that he has
lost count, has decided to branch
out into the realms of Ucal bus
iness and about the first of the
month his genial countenance will
be glimpsed behind the cigar
counter of the Seward Club which
will be opened in the recently
vacated establishment of the
the Pioneer.
For the pleasure of his patron
age there will be card tables
and appropriate reading matter.
In the meantime, Pete Is just j
about the busiest man in the
city renovating the place and fix
ing it up ship-shape for the grand j
opening.
