1. Life is a day-to-day process
that writes its own book, and it's
author can't prevent anyone from
taking a good look.
2. The things you don't care to
have appear, you had better not do,
for they are sure to smear.
8. Since no one is responsible for
what you do out of sight, then there
is no one but you to blame when
your dark spots come to light.
4. Life is like an indelible pencil
it has a smooth finish, but to
erase mistake. there remains a
blemish.
). A typewriter has no intelligence
but lot of keys; like your life it
only reflects what you strike, at your
ease.
6. Good intentions alone, never
wrought any inventions nor brought
a man or woman any nearer to Gods
throne.
z. Ones thoughts, by the world
are not realized until placed in no
ton and materialized.
s. Thoughts can make or break
any mn, but unwholesome deeds do
the most damage in our land.
3. After one has done his talking
the folks begin to look around to
see in what direction he is walking.
10. He who thinks that life Is only
eating and sleeping, getting and not
giving, is only helping his adversary
to arrange his final trimming.
IL. Such persons as these would
not have the other fellow to know
his thoughts to be so shallow, thus
he becomes bigger hypocrite by

Housing Held AIaska's One Great N eed

"The situation, though difficult. is not hopeless"
 This terse comment, which re- minds one of a war communique, is a summing up by Reed Sails bury of the Railbelt's housing situ- ation. Housing-and who hasn't felt the squeeZe-is the Railbelt's No. problem.
 The purpose of his report on a house-construction- is this: he hopes that the report may en- courage venture capital to inves- tigate the feasibility of going into the business.
 Salisbury doesn't underestimate the importance of housing:
 No enterprise can flourish with out reliable and contented em- ployes." he says, land no em- employe can be satisfied without a reasonable home life. Such envi- comments do not exist in Alaska for the newcomer"
 Now many people are impro- perly housed? He modestly estim- ates that present living quarters do not provide an acceptable standard for over three-quarters of the current population" This figure is much smaller than those advanced recently by housing authorities.
 In fact, there is a danger of ex- aggerating the number Of houses which could readily be absorbed. Such an exaggeration can rebound and harm the territory's economy, he claims. 'The clamor for POGO houses Apparently h. refers here to Anchorage) is too enthusiastic anI Chamber of Cornmerce-ish fer such q number would result in the collapse of realty values, hence upsetting the territ Dry rather than stat;lizing it," he vai,r'.

c. s. o. Building Us AWa1tS Heating

It was announced today that the City Council is in complete accord on the use of the USO building, for amusement purposes. The great drawback is the lack of funds in city coffers. The city can not undertake to heat the building for a few hours a week.
 Unless an administration group can be organized for the purpose of backing the plan financially, such operation will be out of the question. The council will collect figures on the cost of heating the USO building for the last year. The figures will be released very soon.
 Councilman Russell Painter said
Seward seaport record., 1948-11-26


 A metal cornice was blown off the building which houses Hinie's Liquor Store. Many windows were gone this morning, and garbage cans were scattered helter skelter. Roofing was blown off the dock warehouse, and great deal of damage was done at Seward Light and Power.
 There has been no real estimate of damage done. but many water pipes are reported to have frozen as a result of windows being brok- en out, or because of furnaces and stoves being shut down when the power lines were downed.
 Chief of Police Clark said that city police kept a twenty-four hour continuous patrol as a guard against fires and broken wires.
 Many old timers said there never has been such wind storm with in memory. There may have been stronger winds, but never of such long duration. -:.

Seward Seaport Record Changes Publication Days

Readers may expect their news papers to reach them a day earlier than in the past. The reason is the change in publication dates, by which the Record will be in a position to give advertisers better service.
 The change will be especially advantageous to those whose customers come to town on Satur- days for their shopping. By having the papers in the hanGs of the shoppers on Friday evening. the
Seward seaport record., 1948-11-26

service will be far more effective. The same applies to the merch- ants who conduct midweek sales on Wednesdays.
 AS for the news angle, the Re- cord has found that an evening paper brings out the latest news available on the evening of pub lication, which is generally all the news to be found in a morning paper. The Record, however, will continue to give the best possible service on news, even when that service involves extra editions.
Seward seaport record., 1948-11-26

he thought the fuel bill for last year was about $500 The Police Department is located in the base ment of the building, and could absorb some of the cost. But un- less more money is forthcoming, the building will have to be closed up.
 An offer has been made by the Basketball League to make use of the building, along with other or ganizations, and pay for it's use It is hoped that some organiza- tions will take over the building for dances and social functions.
 The building would serve many purposes for entertainment and comfort. It could be used for a gymnasium and game room. When trains or ships are off schedule it would be fine place to accommo- date those who have to spend sev- eral hours here. Many people who live on the highway have no con- venient place to go when they come to town to shop.
 The great difficulty is that it does not pay to open the USO un- less if can be used every dav. If enough activity can be centered there to pay for heating and main taining the building, the city coun- Gil is more than willing to open the building.

First Ship Expected in 10
 Days as Strike Agreement Reached by Longshoremen

The 85-day-old maritime tie-up which has paralyzed West Coast shipping since Sept. l and has allowed a mere trickle of food and supplies to enter Alaska came to an end this morning.
 The strike, which has cost ship pers $4,000,000 day in business and maritime and longshore work CTS $3,0OO,0O0 a day in wages, was one of the most bitterly contested in history. Although remarkable for lack of violence on both sides, bitter accusations and recrimina- tions have been hurled by both sides.

Trash Burning Danger Told by Firemen

all know where all the business houses are We also know where the old-time residents live. If you are one of the more recent ones to take up residence here you should be especially careful to learn your house number. Then if you ever need help from the Fire Depart ment-1, give your name; 2, give your house number; and 3, the avenue you live on.
 KIBH, while on the air from 5 pm. to l2 midnight, will broadcast all fire alarms. If you are tuned in to your local station you will immediately know where the fire is. If you hear the siren and want to know where the fire is, turn on your radio and get the location. This procedure will save many calls to the phone operator. Unless you are a fireman, do not go to the phone when the siren blows. The operator is busy calling 20 firemen and giving them the fire location.
 Thanks,

Buy and Use christmns Seuls-

The Seward Volunteer Fire De- partment has asked us to print the following message to the public:
 The reason for the city ordinance prohibiting burning anything out doors unless in an incinerator should now be apparent to every one-a terrific wind and everything dry, especially the grass. Just a spark in the dry grass and it's any body's guess where the fire would be stopped. The Fire Department requests your very strict observ- ance of this ordinance.
 During the past year not all of the fire calls have been clear as to the exact location. It is entirely up to the person turning in the alarm to give the location prop erly. Give your name. Give your house number. Give the avenue you live on.
 If you do not know your house number you can get it from the city clerk. All the lots face the avenues. The avenues run north and south. The numbers start at the south end of town and in- crease to the north. Of course, we
