SKWARD, ALASKA, SATURDAY, JANUARY (>, 1917
The people of the city are urged to make use ot the
editorial columns “t this paper to express their views
Mr. \\. M. Sauers of the Seward Commercial Company
will start otT the work next Monday by request. People
in business, those who understand something about in
surance, about lire protection, about fisheries, about any
th nc are in a far better position to speak of them than
a person who might have a little smattering of several
subjects but no real knowledge ot anything in particular,
unless he carefully studied it. Almost every man has
something to say worth while and now is the time to sa\
it. It is far better to give your own views than to criticize
those of another. You might do a lot of good to the com
munity and the least you can do is to get others thinking,
which is a great advantage in itselt. on are asked to
write editorials, not ordinary letters. In this way what
von sav will he read in other towns and will he more at
• •
tractive to home readers also.
If you feel the time hanging heavy on your hands,
young ladies and gentlemen, during long winter evenings
you might make it lighter and profitable by taking up
some study. The person in these days who is without
some special trade can never feel safe for a rainy day.
You could choose shorthand, sewing, bookkeeping, engi
neering or its elementary parts, cooking, carpentry, law
and a score of others that might be useful some time.
Convention is a terrible invention. There are times
in some towns in w inter when a person is torn by a raven
ous desire to let loose—to do something crazy. All that
stays him is the thought of the eyes of the godly raised to
heaven in shocked virtue and holy horror. There is noth
ing so useful in a community as the saints of it. If the
wheat were ever divided from the chad' and sent away
from these towns what beautiful flights the lightened
chaff might achieve.
This is the time of the vear in Alaska when so manv
% %
pot pie can be heard swearing that this winter is their
last sure and certain. Three months from now when the
sun is shining and all the world looks bright Alaska will
look just a little better than any other place to the man
who has to work for a living. Many a man has gone out
side after having been thoroughly saturated with the in
dependent spirit of the North and he has yearned to come
back, to get away from the cheap and numerous competi
tion. from the semi-slaverv that is ever a concomitant or
%
so-called civilization.
