SEWARD BAND OFFERS ! ASSISTANCE AFFAIRS

At yesterdays meeting of the local Chamber of Commerce Captain R. R. Guthrie reported almost an entirely new band is now in readiness to again play before the public and is willing to cooperate in any way it can with worthy local organizations, affairs or programs.
 President Urbach thanked Captain Guthrie and members of the band for their kind offer and during the dis cussion which followed, several sug- gestions were made. One of them was it would be nice for the public at large if they played occasionally at the Liberty theatre, before the regular program: another idea put forward was that the band play at the basket ball games. The cold weather practi- cally prohibits giving concerts out of doors.
 The bands first appearance since it was reorganized will be tomorrow evening when 1t will be heard at the s. A. c. during the double-header basketball games.

she insists upon veri1cation at every

How did she come to write at an
age when most people are thinking
of retiring? This is the way she
explains it: Living in comparatlve'
IL isolated section of the country, she
taught her two children until they
were II years old. During that time,
as her children had no playmates, she
made up stories to tell them, as they
picked the topics. On one occasion
she told them a story which they
called "Perfessor," and later they
asked her to tell it again. She did,
but with variations. which were
quickly detected by the children. To
avoid future complications. she wrote
down the stories, so the children could
read them whenever they wanted to,
and this started her on the road to
writing. At first she wrote numer-
Gus short stories, but her author
friends urged her TO put her later
