SCHOONER ARROW"
 REGISTERS SEWARD
Trail Blazer

The first of the new halibut fleet to register from Seward is the schooner Arrow, Capt. c. Erlandsen. The Ar row was built in Seattle last winter, expressly for the halibut service, and is schooner rigged, 6S feet long, with 80 h. p. c. o. Wickman Deisel engine.
 Her maiden trip was made in May when she arrived in Seward with a cargo of 5000 pounds of halibut for the San Juan Fishing & Packing Go. She is owned by c. Ellandsen and O.. Venes.
 Captain Erlandsen is firm belev- CT in the future of Seward.
 ''I came to Seward last fall in an- other boat" he said in answer to the question why he had selected the Gate way City as his home port. "The wea- ther was wonderful and the scenery surrounding the town was simply mag nificent. That afternoon friend and l set out to see more of the natural beauty which had captivated us. We contemplated a trip along the Kenai Lake highway, and had come about to the Seward Dairy when an elderly gen. ,loman storned and asked us if we would mind a ride with him. We were more than glad to accept his hospital ity, and drove on to Woodrow, and made short stop, and then continued to Mile 12. Here our host drew our attention to a certain spring where the following sign was displayed: Drink this water and you will live a thousand years" We all had drink and 1t taste dgood. Then we continued along the road and about this time my friend and looked each other over thinking of the distance we had plac- ed between ourselves and Seward. No doubt our host read out thoughts for he said, Have no worry, gentlemen, l shall take you back to where I picked you up. oo we CoHIiiiuCu oi eo .ho end of the highway and then came back to the Seward Dairy where we all went in and refreshed ourselves on the excellent milk and cream that the proprietor served in plenty. In appre- citation of this hospitality shown on our first visit to Seward, decided to have the Arrow which we contemplat- ed building, registered in Seward and to make Seward her home port.
 Seward welcomes Captain Erlandsen and will endeavor to live up to the standard of hospitality and good fel- lowship which impressed him on his first visit.
