WHEN THINGS SEEM WRONG

1t is one of the misfortunes of the times that the great forces for good in the world are not as noisy and do not attract as much attention as the forces for evil. The average Seward man, if he does not dig below the sur face of the current news little is apt to get an imperfect impression of facts. Those who stor up hatred and array nation against nation are mak- ing Q lot of noise these days, but the large number who meet to promote Letter relations among all people get m.ie attention.
 Underneath the wickedness and woe in .his country is the great smooth current of goodness and giadness. This includes a great majority of our people too, and probably of most oth- e countries at the present time. Those who rave and would destroy huanity aam brotherhood are as powerless as waves to control the oceans depths. There are few traffic accidents, but the great stream of travel goes on dai- ly and nightly, most of it without harm to anybody. A few persons vio- late the law and are punished, but what comfort there is in the thought that the greatest majority of our people are law-abiding and that they mingle every day without violating any of the rights of others.
 These are the things to think of when you read or hear news that is dark or depressing. Just remember that the vast majority of people in this country are safe-and- sane, hon. est to goodness Americans.

NEW YEARS EVE AND THE
 FIREMEN'S BALI.

It Was really wonderful affair. Practically every person, young and old who could dance was on the floor. Dozens of couples fox trotted and waltzed from g P. M. until the wee small hours of the New Years. Cor, geous and bizarre costumes mingled with weird and fantastic make ups. Old Sour Coughs one stepped with Bo Peep. staid matrons cavorted with clowns, men and women in evening dress mingled with the various char acters.
 Riddles had the time of their young lives. They were dressed with the same attention to detail as their parents.
 Little girls were little boys and visa versa. One little Japanese girl was dressed in a perfect oriental cos tune. Little Miss Yuka Yago would have taken a prize handily if there had been such a thing as a prize offered for the best little girl in fancy costume. Miss Helen Balderston as a Scotch Highland lassie was a perfect specimen of the girls of Harry Laud- CTS country. And the unanimous ap- plause which filled the hall when Miss Rodna Johnson was awarded the prize for the best woman waltzer showed plainly that the large crowd fully agreed with the judges. Miss Johnson is a dainty little woman An expert and finished dancer who thoroughly under stands the art of graceful move ment on the waxed floor. The Misses Mcintosh in their Buster Brown cos tunes lent color and life to the ball. The most beautiful dressed lady, Mrs. Frank Towle, was not awarded first

 prize simply because she was not there when the prizes were distributed. She arrived late. Tom Haines without a question of doubt deserved the prize awarded him for being the best sus- tained character. His puttied nose and his hirstute adornment of real caribou hair, coupled with his costume made one think of Louie Mann in the Telc- phone Girl. His acting was so natural that most of the people who saw him have been wondering ever since just when he landed. "Miss" Hanson was a scream. A perfect 36. The grace of ! her movement was similar to that of 8 halibut just removed from the hook. A past master in the art of shimmying as she glided and slid and tripped on the waxed floor. Most of the young fellows and many of the older ones found it difficult to keep their eyes on their real girls or wives. Twas Miss Hansons first visit to Sewa. d. She was welcomed with open arms. The Misses Leslie and Ellswo. tl, worked the relay stunt on the piano and the Rev. Bill Mooney, minister of Cable News was the drummer deluxe. Rev. Bills thoughts at times roamed to far away Hawaii, thus the reason for the Yum Yum music and Hula Hu- Ia melodies that mingled with the re- gular. Word was received this morn- ing that Mrs. Leslie would receive an additional prize from the Aunt Jem- ina Pan Cake Go. Itwas some ball and the Bremen deserve full credit for the perfect way every detail was arranged feet way every detail was arranged. Following is a list of the lucky ones who secured prizes;

The Malamute Club was the New Year Day feature in Seward. Every member, wearing a stiff hat called in a bunch on practically every person 1 in Seward. They parked howled and yapped with joy, but never growled or whined. The Malamute Club is made up of thorobred pups and dogs, all broken to harness and all pullers for the things in life which bring happi- ness and fun. Wherever they are there is something doing all of the time. A happy-go- lucky bunch of fellows who never hang crepe. A new institution in Seward, yet in it's infancy, but with every promise of becoming one of the leading joy producers of the Gateway City. We wish lem all Happy and prosperous New Year.
