RUINS ROMAN ROAD,

is in as perfect condition as when it
was laid a thousand years ago. The
cost of such a roadway would be pro

“I am glad to be here and I believe
this is the first time that I have ever
attended a Chamber of Commerce I
meeting in Seward,” remarked Rob
ert Romig, former resident of Sew- ,
ard. but of late years one of Anch
orage’s most prominent and rising
young business men. ‘‘I was practie- ,
ally raised in Seward and have many'
friends here and naturally l always
have been interested in Seward. You j
display a remarkable spirit of friend
liness which creates and leaves a i
fine impression.
“I find many substantial improve- j
ments in Seward as the years roll
by, but for goodness sake get your [
councilmen busy and repair some of
these sidewalks. This is the only j
suggestion that I can make. One ol i
these days, unless your walks are i
repaired, someone wrill be injured
and then the city will have a big
damage case on its hands,”
