WOMAN’S CLUB TO
COOPER ATE WITH
LOCAL CHAMBER
JEFFERSON DAY AFFAIR PLAN
NED BY ORGANIZATION FOR
NEXT MONTH
The Seward Woman’s Club met at
the home of Mrs. Ralph- Reed Thurs
day for its regular business and so
cial meeting.
In response to a letter received
from the Seward Chamber of Com
merce asking that the club assist
them in any way possible, the club
feels that only through cooperation
cau any degree of success be obtain
ed and therefore the club is glad to
assist and help making Seward to
ward better civic development.
On April 13, the Woman’s Clubs
of America have been asked to ob
serve or celebrate, in a fitting man
ner, the 150th birthday anniversary
of one of our greatest patriots,
Thomas Jefferson. If the Club wish
es, a small amount of the proceeds
of any entertainment may be don
ated toward the upkeep of Jefferson’s
home, at Monti cello. With this idea
in mind, the club in thepast,
each year, gives prizes, either to
school children for scholastic devel
opment or a more beautiful homes
contest. So this year the club will
aw'ard prizes and ribbons to school
children. The committee is working
on the different classifications and a
more detailed account wil be publish
ed following the next meeting.
After the adjournment of the busi
ness meeting a very interesting pro
gram was given. Mrs. Barnett gave
an enlightening and detailed account
on the historical, as well as the myth
ical life, of St. Patrick. Mrs. Lech
ner and Mrs. George Schmitt gave an
amusing and original song. Mrs.
Krefting contributed some Irish stor
ies. At the conclusion of the pro
gram the hostesses, Mrs. Reed and
Mrs. Lien served delicious refresh
ments of tea and cookies. Followed,
an amusing social hour in \vhich, the
ancient Irish pastime of reading for
tunes by tea leaves, was told by some
of the ladies.

Mrs. Anton Eide and daughter, Mar
it will be among the local citizens

ning on the S.S. Alaska .for Seattle

The trip out is being made primar
ily on Marit’s account, she having

In the Matanuska Valley, conltem
plates starting up this seasons’ oper
ations next month,'he stated last week
while in Seward. Logging is conduct
ed right on the ranch a sufficient
stand of timber being found to keep
the mill in operation for many years
to come. The daily cut is not large
for Capt. Olsen sawrs only whenever

“If You Would Live Long
Don’t Be Too Good,”
Says Noted Austrian Dr.
NEW YORK, March 20 (/P).—Dr.
Adolf Lorenz, world-famous Vien
nese surgeon, who recently arrived
in America where he first won fame
by treating the club foot of Lolita
Armour, 26 years ago, stated to the
press, “If you would live long, don’t
be too good!’’
Moderation in everything, includ-ing
goodness, is his prescription for long
I evity and good health.
“Eat temperately, diyik temper
ately, and love temperately,” he says.
“And when you have got all you
think you can get out of life, have
a tSeinach gland operation and start

Mr. and Mrs. Burr Snyder
Leave Tonite for Seattle
Where Expect To Locate
Following thirteen years of serv
ice with the U. S Signal Corps of
which 10 have ben spent in Alaska,
the past two years in Seward, Mast
er Sergeant Burr M. Snyder, accomp-!
anied by Mrs. Snyder, leave tonight j
on the S. S. Alaska for Seattle, where j
Mr. Snyder will report at the head
quarters office. Just where his future
future detail will be he could not j
say at this time. Mr. Snyder assum- i
ed charge of the local cable office
upon his arrival in July, 1924, and
has been operator in charge since.
It is Seward’s loss in losing these ;
esteemed citizens who during their j
residence here have come to be a
part of the town’s social and civic life.
Mr Snyder’s efforts to promote the
atheletic interests of Seward has
been one of the outstanding marks
to his credit anjl especially during
the past winter, the succesful organ
ization of the Seward Athletic Club
whose members now number well
over a hundred active members. All
credit is given Mr. Snyder by other
officials of the club, for its concep
tion and the interest wrhich has con
tinued to date. As an athelete hims
elf his absence from the local ranks
will be sorely missed.
It is the wish of their many local
friends that in their new field and
home, 'in the States, all happiness
and the best things in life, will con
tinue to follow them.
Matanuska Farmer Has
System Clearing Land
Requiring Little Work
Tex Cobb, one of the best known
farmers of the Matanuska valley, has
solved a system whereby by little per
sonal effort he is slowly having his
big farm cleared off. Capt. Olson, a
recent visitor in Sew-ard, in describ
ing the system of Mr. Cobb said that
whenever a newcomer arrived at Mat
anuska and expressed their wish to
locate there for a brief spell, Mr.
Cobb always came forward with the
suggestion that he had an extra ca
bin and providing the party wanted to
clear a little land, if he would harv
est the crop on the entire farm he
would split the profits with him. “So
each year,” Capt. Olson said, “by Tex
using these methods, he is gradually
adding on more acreage to his already
splendid farm and also planting and
raising more crops.
