Shipping Strike Doesn't Daunt These Seward Girls

SEWARD-It's an i'll wind that blows no good. according to an old saying. And one example of this is new Alaskan handicraft shop opened recently in Seward by three local girls, Helen Head, Doris Van Guilder and Lillian Popp during the shipping strike. With no boats coming in for the past two and a half months the girls conceived the idea of a store where local people might cash in on their hobbies and at the same time fill the needs of their neigh bors for useful household articles and gifts.
 The idea has met with great suc- cess in the community and "Treas- ure Cove" is being stocked with many interesting items made To- cally. With Christmas close at hand, Seward residents are find ing they can supply each other with beautiful gifts and the store promises to grow into a booming home industry even with ships from Outside back on the run.
