AREAWHNIE WE'VE' SKIN}EB
From a once-exalted place among the elite, Mason
County has skidded to the bottom of the ladder in tuber-
culosis Christmas seal participation.
This year our community is the only one in Wash-
ington showing a decline in Christmas seal returns over the
previous year. Every other county showed an increase, re-
ports Lois Davidson, who for so many years kept Mason
County in the spotlight of Tuberculosis League activities
through her untiring, effective efforts.
T,his year's decline is difficult to figure, unless
it is due to Mrs. Davidson's own enforced reduced
personal attention to the seftl sale.
However, if our own people would remember that
Mason County is one of an exclusive few which have their
own chest x-ray machines, which is open to the public daily
except Saturdays and Sundays in the health department
offices at 8th and Railroad, they might feel more gener-
ously inclined to return their dollars for Christmas seals.
An exceptionally large number of seal recipients have not
remitted for them this year, Mrs. Davidson points out.
One of the beneficial side-bars to the chest x-ray mach-
ine, which is primarily to detect tuberculosis, has been ad-
vance detection of a sizeable number of heart conditions
which might have otherwise become serious, or fatal. Along
with the cases of tuberculosis detected, mostly early enough
so early cure was possible, Mason County's possession of
this chest x-ray machine is a blessing for which the Tuber-
culosis Association should be deeply thanked.
The best possible way to e cpress such de-
served gratitude is t,hrough your remittance for
Christmas seals--you who have not yet done so.
GAN HELP: SANTA
Santa Claus needs a gift, and he's willing to
pay for it.
If anyone in Mason county has any sleigh bells, or
knows where some are, John Ragan very urgently wants tc
acquire them as part of his accoutrement for enacting the
role of Santa.
In case it is news to you, Ragan has been impersonating
the jolly idol of the very young for the past three or four
years here in Shelton. He goes all out to play the role right,
and he feels sleigh bells should be part of his complete
equipment. The bells he has used so far have been borrowed,
and now have been reclaimed by their owner.
So, if anyone can put our own St. Nick on the
trail of some sleigh bells which he can buy, or be
given outright, he would be as appreciative as the
kids he sits on his knec e, ach Christmas and gives
CHRISTMAS PARTY--Santa Claus greeted youngsters at the
annual IWA Local 3-38 Christmas party Dec. 20 at the IWA hall.

SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT
SALUr"rlNG OUR FLAG
Dear Bill,
There is something that has
been on my mind for some time
now. To some people it may seem
trivial, but to me, it is very im-
portant. This letter is not meant
to criticize, but to enlighten those
who either do not know on' are
not s)lre.
It is the saluting of our flag. 1
would like to share with your
readers some of my thoughts per-
tainkngto this subject, OUR
FLA'G.
Tke flag is more than just a
piece of bright colored cloth, it is
a symbol, or sign, that stands for
an idea, a callse, or a purpos,:.
