Emily Post
On the subject Of the long-han-
lied spoon, a reader sends me this:

On the subject Of the long han
died spoon, a reader sends me this:
I'm horrified every time I read
your advice that people should
leave a long-handled spoon in the
glass while drinking. I just can't
believe you could advise such a
thing. Even when there is nc
plate under the glass I think many
other people share my feeling tina,
it would be better to lay the spoon
which has, after all, just been
used for stirring and is not messy,
on the tablecloth rather than tc
drink with it in the glass. Even II
some one is accomplished enough
to keep from gouging her eye out
with the spoon. it looks awkward
sticking up. Won't you change
your advice?"
II there is no plate under the
glass, the simplest way is to leave
it,where it is. in the glass, and hole
IT back against the side with your
index finger while drinking. Any
one with normal dexterity GER
tainly can manage this without
either effort or awkwardness. 1r
fact, the procedure is so simple
that I don't understand how II
can annoy you. If the spoon Is
too long for comfort. then it is
best to stir the beverage and leave
the spoon on your plate to be
taken away. but you must not lay
an implement that has been used
on the tablecloth.

TWO WAY PAY DAY MONDAY

Monday morning, although there was no 1ongshore work, saw the men streaming down to the dock office to collect their paychecks.
 Monday afternoon saw stream of housewives roaming the streets and stores with money to pay the bills At almost every store one walked into there were women pushing money over the counters and asking for receipts.
 It was payday for the railroad, as well as for the longshoremen and it was estimated that at least S60,OOO in wages changed Monday.
 AS far as is known no total es- innate has ever been made of the average Seward payroll, but in a good month the amount, including local firms. government and city payrolls, should run into surpris- ingly large figures.

The C,adGe Roele,s

Do you know, I think it is only fair to let our local merchants know how much we appreciate their courage in attempting to carry on as usual during strikes, periods of "short money, hard times, etc, as well as in the good times.
 Of course you will say it is only good business to foresee and pre- pare against strike in this country, but that is just what I mean. They are good business men on which to build future for our children.
 Stores could have closed their doors during the strike and we would not have thought too much about it except to sympathize with their hardship-but they did not. Not a single house, but stayed open as usual and without raise in prices of hard to get goods.
 You cannot buy cheap, shoddy materials which really rob one of his money with their surface ap- pearance only to deteriorate ra- pidly with use. We pay what we consider high prices but we con slider the fact that most all the clothing. appliances and utilities sold in Seward are nationally ad vertised lines whose prices are set by the manufacturers, and in most cases are on a price level with the same goods wherever sold in the States They seem high only be- cause the cheaper stuff is not car ried for comparison.
 For that reason we can buy safe ly without the worry Of wondering whether we have bought unwisely or have gotten our moneys worth.
 Last week these merchants by way of the Chamber of Commerce organized themselves for another year of effort for their prosperity and the good of Seward.
 We, The Women. can do our share by patronizing our own and standing behind our Chamber of Commerce. If anyone has a good idea I believe that Mir. Lesko will consider anything that might be presented, and maybe out of many a few plans could be adapted for use in Seward for the civic better ment we are all so hopefully an- ticipating
 The Chamber has made mistakes in the past and will make them again-what group or individual does not? The thing to do is to settle on a project and remain ac- tive and live so that by very force of it's own enthusiasm the Cham Der will make itself voice to be reckoned with in the Territory.
 More power to Seward Chamber of Commerce.

 Music was furnished by six piece orchestra, with the members donating their services.
 A number of parents were on hand to see that the youngsters had the right kind of a good time.

Homc-Canncd Tomatoes

Home-canned tomatoes are a
very important source Of vitamins
and minerals. as well as tasty
and appealing food. Tomatoes have
long been recognized as an i'm
portant source Of several vitamins
and minerals, particularly ascorbic
acid or vitamin c. Because ascor-
bic acid cannot be stored in the
body. il is best to supply It daily
for the best Of health. Winter
meals have often been found low
in this vitamin unless special care
is taken 70 use vitamin c rich
food. When the amounts Of vitamin
c in a persons diet are low he
win not necessarily be i'll. but viii
feel more at II he eats sufficient
food containing ascorbic acid. And
that is where the home canned to-
matoes come in.
