ST. PETERS CHURCH
 TWENTY YEARS OLD

On June 12, 1904, in the residence of Dr. H. Sleem, little group of peo- pie met together for a service con- ducted by the Rev. F e. Taylor of Valdez. Out of this gathering Saint Peters church grew. In 1905 services were held in Moore's Hall and in a tent church which was erected and furnished by those enthusiastic mem bers. During the winter the tent was destroyed by storms and then the ser vices were held in the Arctic Brother hood Hall. In April, 1908, Bishop Rowe made his first visit to Seward.
 During the winter of 1905 the pres ent church building was begun and in July 1906 the basement was fitted up for services. In the fall of 1917 the Rev. George J. Finn came to Seward and under his leadership five room modern bungalow was built for a rec tory.
 In the fall of 1922 a number of inn provements were made to the church property under the supervision of A. E. Fucker, Treasurer of the church. A beautiful altar was built in the church as also was an altar rail and prayer desk The chancel was calcimined and the floor covered with red carpet which brightens p teh whole interior, makin gthe church cheerful and at tractive. During the summer of1923 with aid from Bishop Rowe, a large fireplace was built in the basement. This part of the church will be fitted out to serve as a Social Hall for all parish affairs.
 For the past two years services have been held once month on the last Sunday of the month by the Rev. Burdette Landsdowne who comes down from Anchorage.
 Next Sunday, at HOO A. M. there will be service and sermon. A cor dial invitation is extended to all. If you are not in the habit of going to church, pay us visit and you will be glad you did.

CHAMBER 0F COMMERCE
 HOLDS BUSY LUNCHEON

The regular weekly luncheon and business meeting of the Seward Chamber of Commerce was held today in the Seward grill, President Hlnde presiding. Because of the Midnight Sun excursion, several of the mem bers were absent.
 The minutes of the last regular meeting were read and approved.
 Several communications were read and necessary action taken on them.
 The committee on the "dock sign" reported progress and that the sign would shortly be ready for lettering.
 The President called upon the mem bers of the Chamber for expressions on the trip to Fairbanks. Several mem bers responded and the opinion of all was that the Railroad Officials had made possible trip that could not be outshone by any railroad in the States. The whole journey was supervised by General Manager Landis, assisted by MT. Grove, and no opportunity was overlooked that in any way would add to the enjoyment of the trip. Stops were made at every point of interest and accommodations provided for the excursionists were all that could be expected.
 Some criticism was presented on the manner of entertaining the visi- tors during their stay in Fairbanks but this did not reflect on the individ- ual citizens of Fairbanks, who were certainly hospitable; both were occa- stoned by a lack of organization on the part of the Fairbanks Commercial Club in overlooking some program of information that would allow coast visitors to occupy their time to advan- tage, in seeing the country in that vi cinity.
 The secretary was instructed tc write Secretary Work commenting the work of the Railroad, the manner of conducting the excursion, and the ability of the present management.
 The Chamber had as guests, pr David, who arrived on the U. s. s Goldstar from St. Paul Islands; Dr David spoke of the market for Alas. ka coal to teh Westward, and very Interestingly explained the sealing op- erations in the Pribilof Islands. Dr David also spoke of performing eight major operations in the St. Paul hos pital during his stay at St. Paul ,anc stated at present he was looking for z location, and might possibly return tc this section.
 MT. N. c. Vestal, representing the Seattle Hardware Company, was al so present as a guest of the Chamber and briefly addressed them; stating he was glad of the opportunity of be- ing present.
 There being no further business the meeting upon motion, adjourned.
