We have received 126 telephone calls asking whether the s. S. Victoria would arrive in Seward today. We have been asked 1Ss times on the Main and other streets if We had received any news about the Victoria's arrival today. We expect the steamer to tic up at the dock some time today. We are hoping she does the same az the 25s people who made inquiries about her. Most everybody in Seward is ex- pecting a letter or package from the outside. The Victoria this season is tho Santa Claus ship for Alaskans. Guess We never really outgrow the Santa Claus belief. Way down deep in our hearts it still exists, even if we sometimes openly scoff at the idea. Christmas will always be the most wonderful day in the year
