The s. s. Alameda will carry south several we'll known Seward people who will spend the Christmas Holidays with relatives and friends in the states. Several years have elapsed since the last time these people jour. neyed out. Comes hankering in the soul of both man and woman after they have resided a few years in Gods country, for the glitter of the White way of the big metropolitan cities and when the hankering reaches certain stage they usually satisfy it by buying a ticket. As a rule most of them re- turn long before the time elapses of their planned stay. It is only by taking a trip to the outside occasionally that the men and women of Alaska learn to appreciate the real things that they have in this Big Out Doors. Most of us like to hit the back trail on which are the milestenes that mark the Red let ter days of our lives. Thus it will al- ways be as long as the Human Ami nal has the gift or curse (which ever it may bel of memory.
 The contribution boxes for the Conl- munity Christmas Tree are commenc. ing to attract the dimes and quarters of the men and women of Seward and interior points. It won't be long before the desired quota is obtained. If more is given every single penny of the amount should be utilized right here in Seward. Our Riddles cannot be giv- en too much real Christmas cheer. The committee in charge should make it g special point to. See that they are give en Community Tree that will never be erased from their memory. All of us way down deep in our heats be- lieve in a real or a mythical Santa Claus who remembers us on Christmas Day. Don't let us stint the occasion in any way. Don't let us figure or plan on having any surplus amount. Let us use every penny in wise frugal way for the Riddles of Seward

The race, which will likely be held early in March, will be for purse of $2,500 if a suggestion to in- crease it to this sum is approved at the annual meeting of the members of the derby to be held shortly.
 S This purse is not considered too high in view of the heavy expense in- cured in, maintaining and preparing a dog team for racing. The dogs are very expensive last spring pups sell ing at $2O0 for five, and full grown and ira."ed animals from S75 to $100 each.

Seattle, Dec, 2- Reduction by one- half in, the number of ships engaged in the Seattle-transpacific service, suggested by officers of the operating division of the United States Shipping Board, would have a disastrous effect upon the efforts to build up the Am erican Merchant Marine on the Paci- fife, according to A. F. Haines, vice. president and general manager of the Pacific Steamship Company in an in- terview.
 In face of the efforts now being put forth by British, Japanese and other foreign lines to capture and hold the Pacific trade, present American ser vices must be maintained at any cost, is the purport of his analysis of the proposal to reduce service.
 Success of the effort to build up the business of the American mer- chant marine depends upon regular and adequate service" says MT. Hain- es. Shippers must have such service and their patronage of the service de- pends largely upon their confidence in it's regularity. Reductions in service disappointment and inconvenience shippers and destroy their confidence in the line. Loss of business te com peting lines is the inevitable result.
 Admiral Benson, chairman of the board, fully realizes the importance of maintaining regular service and, when regular service were established out of Portland and Seattle, assured us that these services would be maintained in face of all obstacles; that if one of the ships should be sold, she would be re- placed immediately by another ship. Regular services would be maintained whether the ships had full cargoes half cargoes or no cargoes. Admiral Benson realized that the ships would have to travel with light cargoes .un. til they had developed freight move ment. t,st
 "Such.a policy is absolutely essent- ial to the success of the American merchant marine, in competition with the British, Japanese, French, Italian and other foreign carriers.
 "The proposal to reduce service arises from the recent slump in trans. pacific trade. The slump is only temp. orary. It will be over by spring, at the worst. This fact, together with the ne cessity of maintain adequate/service is recognized by the British and Jap. anese who, in the face of the slump are strengtheningtheir Seattle Trans. pacific services. For the United States shipping board to adopt the opposite policy would be suicidal in this critical stage of competition. It would be no less than tragedy in the life of our merchant marine"

We often wonder just why it is the children and the teachers in and of our school, cant gather together enough interest to compile few notes about the school doings every week. The Gateway is the only paper in Alaska that fails to print a regular column of school notes. A copy of the Gateway goes to the ffice of every other news paper print; l in Alaska and to great many that are printed in the States. The cd tors of these papers after they read the Gateway naturally think that the children in our school are all too young to write. One litle, wee, tiny, column of school notes every week. Not hard task. What do you teachers and high school children think about it?

 EDMONTON, Alta, Dec, 2 The establishment of an aerial route from Edmonton to the oil fields of Fort Norman on the Mackenzie river is the latest talked of development in connec- ton with the pressing transportation problem existing as a result of the Fort Norman point being so far re- moved from the businessc enters of Alberta.
 Edmonton aviators ate entering in- to negotiations for such a service with a zest indicating that as little time as possible will be wasted in the prelim- mary arrangements. :, The proposals call for the estab- lish,nent of landing stages at intervals along the route and the transportation in the first instance, before flying, of gasoline and other essentials for the successful operation of. flying ma 1 chimes.
