SITELTON—MA SON COT l N'l' V JOURNAL
By Della. Goetsch
Bear Creek, Northeast Mason
County—As a rule life flows on
very quietly in the neighborhood
.v of Bear Creek, a settlement with
Ithe 70 or 80 modest dwellings
of its citizens strung out alongr
the old Navy Yard highway from
a mile or so north of Beli‘air lo
a point a. mile or so north of
the Mason-Kitsap county line. So
quietly does life flow that many,
even among the well informed
readers of the Shelton-Mason
County Journal, have never
heard of this peaceful and peace-
able little community.
However, things do happen, and
events do take place in Bear
Creek just the same as in other
-parts of the county, but every
one has been too busy to let the
newspaper know about them. This
correspondent is a newcomer in
the locality and hasn’t yet heard
how Bear Creek got its name; but
we suppose the settlemnt just na-
lturally took its title from the
[crystal-clear little creek of the
lsame name, which bounds down
lthe slope and ducks under a
'bridge, on the highway right in
the middle of the community.
If this boisterous brook- could
really talk instead of babble, it
could tell plenty about bears,
which, in pro-Settlement days,
brought their fuzzy cubs to the
stream for lessons in the fine
arts of fishing for trout in the
riffles, and gathering salmon ber—
ries along the banks. Then there
must have been times when some
of. these ursine. creatures, found
grateful'mealing for their wounds
in cool mud-packs in the quiet
shallows of the well shaded
streamlet.
This story wasn‘t suppose to
deal with bears anyway, but with
a full-grown cougar which was
seen in the Bear Creek district
recently. At least Mrs. Russell
Daniels, who sighted the tawny
creature, hopes this one was full
grown, and estimates his length,
four feet. If this was only a
baby of the mountain lions spe-
cies, we sincerely hope that we
may never have occasion to make
the acquaintance of his grandpa.
Mrs. Daniels was alone and
driving at a leisurely rate. of
speed from her home to Belfair
when, as she rounded a curve near
Courtney Creek and not far from
the Enos and Baker mail boxes,
she saw the huge cat just a few

.ELECTRIC TOY NOVELTIES
l Electric toys this year are in-
teresting—such as a cannon that
ejects wooden bullets by means
of an electromagnet; fluorescent
paints that glow under a black
.light; a pin ball game controlled
magnetically; a , more than a
toy, a musical i strument looking
and acting lik; a portable type-
writer. It has 32. notes. Besides
being used to produce music, the
intrument provides ,a. method of
teaching touch typing.
A Delicate Pfower Matter
Some electrical measuring in-
struments are so delicate that they
require only a tenth of a millionth
of a watt of energy for operaton.

and fore-paws up against (illl' of
a. pile of logs. This upright posi-
tion gave, a fine view of the great
feline, which, after one searching"
almost impercepitably dropped its
fore feet to the ground and van-
ished into the woods. She said it
did not leap or run away, but
simply wasn’t there any more.
(We wonder if being seared ever
dims the Vision). Any way, if we
should ever meet this big cat or
any of his family, we hope that
We, like Mrs. Daniels, will be
safely enclosed by the steel body
of a good car, with a potential 90
miles per hour under the acceler-
ator and a full tank of gas.
This was the first wild animal
Mrs. Daniels has ever seen in the
woods, though she has lived for
several years in sparsely settled
parts of this county. She says she
was not afraid, and that is prob-
ably true. LiOns seem to be aler-
gic to persons by the name of
Daniel. Don‘t you remember read-
ing about one Daniel, way back
in Bible times, who was put right
into a den full of lions, and didn’t
even get a scratch?
.It is thought by the men Of
this district that the puma’s rea-
son for coming down into our
community in broad daylight was
to indulge its feline fancy for
fish, and the streams have swarm-
ed with salmon lately in a mad
rush to reach their spawning
grounds. Some of us women of
the neighborhood doubt that fish-
ing theory on the grounds of in-
appropriate dress; for when we
are getting ready to embark on a.
fishing excursion we put on the
Oldest and most dilapidated gar-
ments we can find among our
husbands’ discards, and if one of
us has any such gorgeous fur
coat as this wandering cougar was
wearing, we lay it carefully in
the cedar chest and lock it in be-
fore leaving the house.
