SEWARD SCHOOL NOTES
By Special Correspondent

This past week has been a busy one. Practice fer the varlous programs, or chestra practice, work on the essays for the local American Legion con- test, extra curriculum activities; all these helped make the week busy.
 On Wednesday afternoon the Eiec- tricity Class under the direction of Mr. w. o. Perry, took a trip through the local power plant. Here they were very courteously received by Mir. S. M. Graf, who explained to the mem- bers the working of the various ma chinery and mechanism. It was a profitable as we'll as an interesting trip for it topped off' nicely the set of lectures that had previously been given the class by MT. Perry. On Thursday evening the class met for

INCREASED TAkE IN GATEWAY
 BY PROGRESSIVE ADVERTISERS

Beginning April l, many Seward ad- veNisers are contracting for extra space in The Gateway. Among those who are taking advantage of our big circulation to the westward are The Seward Drug Company, The First Bank of Seward, Urbachs, the Liber- ty, The Seward Dairy. The Gateway reflects the prosperity of Seward. Ev- cry dollar made from the paper is put back into the town. It is our hope to make The Gateway real paper: one without a peer in the Territory. To do this we must have the patronage needed.
 Seward has some big things on tap for the coming summer. The Sand ard Oil Company tanks will be in op- eration by June; the pulp mill is an assured fact, the tangle with the fish cries bureau having been cleared away. The local canneries will add to the payroll, and all in all We have no complaint to make over the past or the future

into the room, charged with his ter

something serious had happened. She

The relative mileage of the various
types of road being built in this coun-

the bureau of public roads of the Uni

These figures apply only to federal
aid roads, but since they represent 25,-

may be taken as fairly representative
of the character of the main highways.
