FAITH The SOURCE OF SERENITY

eth unto the Father but by me-"
Each High Prophet is for his age
or dispensation the only path to
God. Thus each High Prophet
makes the same claim; but homes
not to supersede those that have
gone before; but to fulfill their
purpose; to carry further their
work Of redemption.
So If We seek rest and serenity
let us seeAit from its only source
God. Let us realize that we can
find God best through His mani
festation of Prophet for this age.
And let US investigate the Baha'a
Writings to find out whether per
chance God has again visited His
people. AS Queen Marie of Rou-
mania wrote:
1t tthe Ba'has Message) is
Ghrlst's Message taken up anew;
IN the same words almost: but
adapted to the thousand years and
mere difference that lies between
the year one and today. No man
could fail to be better because of
this Book tBaha'u'llah and the
New Era).
| commend it to you all. If ever
the name of Baha'ullah or Alb
dul BAHIA comes TO your attention;
DO not put their writings from you
Search out their books; and let
their glorious; peaee-bringing
love-ereating words and lessons
sink into your hearts as they have
into mine. .. One may have re-
llgion that satisfies; but the teach
ings Of these gentle; wise and
kindly n'en are compatible with all
religion" 90 HM

There is now wide spread
longing for some source of SER
entity in these chaotic times. What
We need to learn is that serenity
and the feeling of rest that under
lies il can come only thru having
truth is brought out in an old poem
the: gist of which follows
tht right relation with God. This
When God made man He had a
glass of blessings standing near;
from which He poured out on man
such blessing as strength; beauty
wisdom; honor and pleasure. Then
God noticed that one blessing; rest
was left in the bottom of the glass.
This He decided to hold back
Otherwise; mdn; having all bless
ings; wuld become absorbed in God
blessings rather than in Hinas IT,
Thus God kept back rest that man
might find it only in Him; that
restlessness might at last lead man
TO God; the only source of rest.
Real serenity then: comes only
from God. To come to God; the
Bible tells US We must believe
that He is and that He is a reward
er of them that seek after him.
The bible shows us; too; that b :
lief in God comes thru belief in his
Great and Holy Prophets. More
over the Bible shows that for
every great age or dispensation
there IS a Supreme High Prophet;
the Path Of God for that age. Mo
SEES was as God to the Children of
Israel; as is shown in Exodus A.
IL; where God says to Moses And
he (Aaron) shall be thy spokes-
man unto the people,: and thou
shalt be to him instead of God. .

M. v. Pomdre To Soil Saturday
 For Westward

The Motor Vessel Pomare, of the Aleutian Steamship Com pany, Seward, made port Aug. IT and will sail for the West ward Saturday, Aug. 19.
 The vessel is accompanied on it's first trip to Alaska by MT. Harvey Bracker, son of the own CT Chas. Bracker, who is also making his first voyage to Alas ka. MT. Bracker has had eXper- fence in Pacific waters off the coast of Mexico and Southern California. The skipper, Captain Adolf Akesson, is an old familiar of Alaska waters with 34 years of experience.
 The Pomare is a reconditioned F-S boat of COP gross tons, the same size as the former mail boat. It can carry a few passen- gers, but will be used chiefly for small freight and the West ward mail. It will make one round trip each month leaving Seward on or about the first Friday of the month. On this first run, however, two round trips will be made to catch up on the quantity of mail accumu, lated because of the delay in the boats arrival. This delay was occasioned by q change of con. tract with the Post Office De. partment, which contract is now held by the Aleutian Steamship Company, after failure by the first party to follow through with his mail contract.

FIRE DEPT ANSWERS CALL TO SANATORIUM

The Seward Volunteer Fire Dept answered a false alarm this morning at about 1O:3O which called them to the Sana- torium~ It was merely trash fire which someone mistook for the real thing.
 Observers stated that it was not more than three minutes after the first alarm was sound ed at the Sanatorium before the first fire truck arrived on the scene. This unplanned drill made better time than some of the timed drills of the depart ment in practice.

Swimming Pool Plans Ger Underway

A tentative committee for the promotion of a swimming pool was put into motion last week. The full committee is now organ iZed with the following roster: Murl Trevethan, Chairman; Mrs. Ray James, Secretary; John Rosness, Treasurer; Dick Beiss- ner, Jim Kirkpatrick, Russell Painter and J. R. Jackson, En- gineering. :.~=
 After the meeting the group settled upon plan to improve First Lake by draining it, clean ing and refilling it to eliminate holes and debris. They propose bath houses, stone fireplaces and a control dam for flushing and filling the pool.
 The plans also include a paid caretaker and life guard. The committee, in casting about for the most feasible plan within the ability of the city to finance, decided upon the First Lake im- provement as the best, in view of message from Governor Gruening, renewing his pledge to the people of Seward to back their application for a swimming pool to be included in the pro- posed new high school building. This is not possible under three or four years, but until such time as those plans mature, it is felt that the lake pool will make an admirable substitute.
 Since that meeting, it has been said that Carl Thomas is defin- itely planning to drain the lake over his mining operations. Un- til a report is obtained from the Swimming Pool Committee on this point, it is not known how or to what extent the mining operation will affect with the committee planning.

TroIIers Catch 35,00O Pounds Silver Salmon

Trollers in Resurrection Bay have brought in 35,000 pounds of silver salmon since Tuesday, according to reports from Sew ard Fish & Cold Storage O.. officials. Today's catch is expect ed to up the figures to 10000 and it is estimated that the weeks total will be in the neigh borhood of 5O,00O pounds from the trollers alone. No seiners have reported in as yet.
 Three boats from Seattle and Southeastern Alaska ports have been trolling in the Bay this week, after leaving Cape Clear. Some local fishermen are also in the Bay but most of the local boats are seiners.
 The Cold Storage Company has offered the use of their fish house to seiners for butchering and preparing their fish for storage, since most of them have no facilities or room aboard the smaller boats for this work. The local fishermen have been invited into the association of H Ii b u t Fishers Cooperative this year.
 181,O00 pounds of halibut were processed and shipped out of the Seward plant this past season. The 100000 pound ship ment via SS Victoria was the last of it.
 Cooperative officials report the fish from the local plant to be in fine condition this year and prospects are good for a big fleet in Resurrection Bay in 1851.

UnIooding ef Firsf Cemenf Shipment
 Completed Today

Despite mechanical difficulties encountered in the trial run, and the breaking in of new operators on the pumps, the first shipment of 13,O85 barrels of bulk and 4 carloads of sacked cement was completed at noon today.
 Trouble developed with the first operation of the pumps, due to untrained handlers and faulty pumps. Two used pumps were put into operation that required some changes. Foreign objects, such as bolts and small tools were found in the bulk cement that damaged the worm gears of the pump adding to the delay. One of the pumps had been used on the work at the Grand Coulee Dam.
 After the operation was run ming smoothly, unloading was carried on with a minimum Of time, the entire period being only 12 days.
 This first shipment has been more or less in the nature of an experiment. Figures were kept on every angle so as to arrive at some definite conclusion as to cost of operations.
 The tug Monarch out of Se- attle, a tug owned by the Puget Sound Tug & Barge Co.,, will depart tonight with the barge in tow for the return trip to Seattle.

Alaska Towns To Develop
 Tourist r Trade

MT. George Sundborg, head of the fla S K a Development Board, and MT. George Armi- tage of Hawaii, were in Seward today in the interest of tourist industry development in the Territory. They were entertain ed at lunch by the Seward Lions Club and spoke on tourist in- dustry future in Alaska.
 Mir Armitage for 22 years has been executive secretary of the Hawaii Tourist Board and has been engaged in an ad- visory capacity for 30 days in order for the Development Board to make use of MT. Armi- tage's long experience in tourist business promotion.
 1t is the opinion of the De- velopment Board, MT. Sundborg said, that one of the big indus tries of the Territory is the tourist trade, which, through the right type of promotion, can be increased tremendously from its present estimated total of 10 to F million dollars per year. He advocates the organiza- tion of an Alaska Tourist Asso- citation patterned somewhat after the Hawaii bureau, to be parti- cipated in by all Alaska organ izations and business establish mentS.
 MT. Armitage told of the de | veIopment of the tourist indus. :, try in Hawaii, which from a pre-War figure of 10 to 12 mil lion dollars annually, has been 1 increased to an estimated total of from 35 to 40 million dollars this year, exclusive of transpor. tatlon costs to and from the ter. ritory. He claims that Alaska | has the most glamorouS seen ery-the most eye-catching pan orama' that it has been his plea sure to inspect and if Alaskans want the tourist business, now is the time to go after it. He also stated that of the 14 towns visit ed by the two men in the past few days, Seward seems to be the most ideally located to bene ] fit from tourist industry promo tiOn. What other town in Alaska has the transportation facilities of SeWard-year- around steam ship service, railroad, highway and airplane transportation?
 The Development Boards pro gram has been enthusiastically accepted and subscribed to by all of the 14 towns visited SC far on the trip, and Ketchikan has pledged S5,000 annually to further the promotion. No ar arrangements have been made as to the extent of Stewards parti- cipation.
