Hi and Jean Burch reported
they had a marvelous trip to Utah
hunting again this year, as they
have had for the past many years.
This year marked the 21st year in
a row they have joined their close
friends, the Mac Thronburgs who
live at Garden city, located near
the famous and exceptionally
beautiful Bear Lake.
The John Niemis returned to
the Island about a month ago,
ffollowing about three months at
their Canadian retreat at Anahim
Lake in British Columbia.
And while it seemed as
though about half of the state's
hunters (at least!) headed for
Harstine Island for the hunting
season, some of the Island's
hunters headed where it wasn't
quite so crowded to try their
luck.
Martin and Esther Goetsch
also headed for their favorite
hunting spot high atop one of the
State's most scenic passes,
Colockum Pass. Their good
friends, Helen and Jim Thompson
joined them with a cow tag which
should have given them a slight
advantage. However, Lady Luck
wasn't casting her smile their way
and they arrived back home
empty-handed.
Not having any meat to hurry
home to take care of, they
decided they might as well call an
some friends. At Klaylock they
dropped in for a call on Pam
(Niemi) and Jerry Wood who had
added a new member to their
family early in October. Five
week old Stephanie was the main
topic of conversation.
Fay Priest of Hoodsport is
now taking care of the groceries
and is also manning their new
Barber Shop at the Inn. She is a
family barber, so everyone from
room and dad to the small-fry can
go to one place to be sheared if
you live in the area. Drop in and
get acquainted.
When a group arrived Tuesday
to decorate the community hall,
they discovered it had been

silverware•

DON'T FORGET THE BIRDS
Lilliwaup's first snowfall of
the winter blanketing the area in
white on Dec. 4 brought the birds
flying back to their feeding
station on the sundeck.
Unerringly they came in search of
the waiting treats• The juncos and
chickadees enjoy the mixture of
wild bird seed, chick scratch and
suet and bacon drippings set out
for them in small containers. Old
"Sam" and his fellow jays are
fussier, preferring the nuts put
out for the squirrels, but they too
will eat the seeds when nothing
better is available. Here too are
the little brown wrens, no seed
eaters these, but good little birds,
friendly, seeking warmth and
shelter from the snow. The finch
are back - or did they ever really
leave us'? A small, round,
spotted-breasted flicker darts
about, then comes to rest clinging
to the bark of the tall fir in front
of the place. No towhees or camp
robbers yet, but we'll watch for
them.
As each season here brings its
own delights, our winter birds are
one of the loveliest. Feed the
winter birds, and don't forget, in
freezing weather, to supply them
with water too. Such a little
kindness to be repaid so
manifold !
The Lilliwaup post office
announces that the Saturday
hours of service for Dec. 11 and
Dec. 18 will be from 9:30 a.m. to
12:30 p.m.
Window service will close at 1
