SEWARD, ALASKA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 81, 1916

Why do live in country like this where the winters are sometimes severe where the towns are so small where there are no theatres thousand miles from any place?
 Every man and woman in Alaska asks himself or her self this question sometimes and everyone tries to answer it.
 We'll in the first place probably the Fates had decided that Alaska must be populated and they had to pick on some to do the pioneering work On the other hand the Fates might have been quite innocent and the respons bity might lie at the door of that restessness which comes to all of us at some time and which in our cases came at the time and in the place when and where the name of Alaska oomed large It might have been mere chance that we came and we stay because of the strange quality in man which causes him to become attached to something with which he is long associated.
 Sometimes we might roast Seward as people will roast their own home town for ever and ever amen everywhere but after prolonged existence here could only leave with feeling of very real loss Particularly is this so of the people who spend their happy youth in place boy or girl who was reared here and went to school here will see in after life from distant places beauties in Seward which none of us here appreciate. The day will come when some such person grown to a man or woman will look back at Broadway or Third avenue with thoughts that are really tender may sound funny but is just the same fact that the day may when to some for mer Seward boy or girl the loveIest picture that could come to the minds eye would be an old plank across the glacier stream pile of rock which lent itself to play house building near the gulch a muddy pool up near the slough That is what keeps many people or brings them back You even get to love dog if you get customed to him.
