clings to treetops across the canal from Tahuya while an idle log
floats by on its sere'ne journey.
Milt Jensen's new year's
resolution to "not do that again"
is certainly one he plans to keep.
During tile week before
Christmas Milt was working
underneath the hood of his truck
when he accidentally hit its
starter button. When the motor
took off he was struck both on
the forehead and over the rib
cage, and then his left hand was
slashed open from tile wrist up
past the thumb.
After his mother called in
the emergency, the Belfair
first-aid car arrived and
transported Mill to Bremerton.
Unforunately, the doctors at
Harrison said they didn't have
the proper equipment to treat
the severed hand, so Milt was
flown by helicopter to
Harborview Medical Center in a
matter of minutes to waiting
doctors.
Although repairs were
immediately made to the hand's
tendon, Milt still has had little
feeling in his hand and fingertips,
so a second surgery was
scheduled for January 9 to fix
the severed nerves.
Milt says his mother "was an
angel" in reacting to his battered
condition and getting help. Milt
also thanks the Belfair EMT gals,
Barry Snover and the men "who
responded so quickly and
completely."
Over in neighboring Allyn, a
dog that wouldn't stay home has
been the reason for prominent
'ads running the past weeks in
this newspaper.

S,00tk Skene for Tahuya pier
By HANNAH DEHLER 275-3512
Some Cliristmas memories
fade with the passage of time,
but it's not so at the Grant
Morse home. Even outshining the
'creme de la creme' gift of 'La
Machine,' Santa also dropped off
a beautiful female St. Bernard
puppy, just eight weeks, old. She
answers to the name of Mousse.
Sired by Hannibal Sinslaw
and listed with 18champions in
her trandsome pedigree, Mousse
should be quite impressive.
Although the origin of St.
Bernards is shrouded with as
much mystery as cloaks many
other breeds, they are really one
of the oldest breeds. Given their
name by tile noted mgnk,
Bernard de Menthon, at the
tospice on St. Bernard's Pass in
i. Swiss Aips, the first public
reference of tile breed was made
by the hospice in 1774. Used
chiefly as a guard over the
treacherous last five miles t)f tile
trail over the pass, the hmely
monks soon discovered they
were excellent pathfinders. Their
uncanny sense of smell made
them invaluable in forewarning
dangerous footing, and locating
lost persons in the Alps during
the sudden snowstorms.
The first St. Bernard to land
in America was brought over by
General Lafayette and presented
in 1828 to J.F. Skinner, then
assistant postmaster general. A
great companion and
extraordinarily gentle with
children, the St. Bernard can be
bad tempered and dangerous to
intruders.
Recent visitors to tire Bob
Soltis home were his father and
stepmother. They were able to
spend a part of the holidays
before returning to their home in
Minot, North Dakota.
A Twelfth Night celebration
was held at the home of Carl
and Alma Larson. The
wine-tasting party was followed
by a potluck dinner for the 38
guests.

season passes.
Don and Dorothy Wise are
building a new home at
Shorebrook. The couple sold
their home at Maple Valley and
have been busy trying to get
their new home altogether. Don
is an avid steelhead fisherman
and Dorothy loves to sew. Both
say they are anxious to get the
new house's major jobs done so
they can get back to enjoying
their hobbies.
Incidentally, the Wises
celebrated their 33rd wedding
anniversary over the holidays.
Ray and Marge Metzger are
back after spending the holidays
with relatives at Ra"s hometown
in Kentucky. The couple had
planned spending sole time in
Mesa, Arizona, as they did last
year, but Ray's arm has been
giving him fits so they came
home a month earlier than
planned.
