Forty-five years ag~ a new
group was born. it was called
"Cub Scouting" and it joined a
big brother that was already 20
years old, Boy Scouts. February is
birthday month for these two
groups and Bel(air scouts are busy
preparing for the month-long
celebrahon.
Starting February 3 there will
be a display of cub crafts at the
Puget Sound National Bank in
Belfair. Be sure to stop by and see
what our boys have been doing.
February. 7 through 13 is Scout

Gold Dinner. The dinner will start

Webelos and has stepped up a
rung to Scout rank in Boy Scouts.
First Class Scout Darrell Bowmer
assisted in the candlelight
ceremony.
Happy birthday, scouts! Have
a nice month.
MAN OVERDUE
On the evening of Jan. 22 the
sheriff's office received a report
that a man was missing. He had
left his job working in the trees in
the Haven Lake area and had been
seen last around 5 p.m. as he left
his job headed to his North Shore
home. He never arrived home so a
search was begun. Around 1:30
a.m. he was located by his father,
who was assisting deputies in the
search, in the Hurd Road area.
The man's motorcycle had broken
down and since he was unfamiliar
with the wooded area he decided
it was not advisable to wander
through the woods at night
without a flashlight so he had sat
down to wait for help or daylight,
whichever came first.
MENACING DOGS
A German Shepherd dog has
been running loose at Lynnwood
Beach, threatening pedestrians,
according to a complaint made to
the sheriff's office.
A dog running loose in Allyn
has been harassing neighbors. The
owners have agreed to confine
him.
Canal life...
south shore
By MAC McKINNEY
(898-2989)
Looking out over the canal
the sun paints first the clouds in
soft pink then lavishly splashes
the mountain peaks with its ink,
soon the hills and canal are alive
and a glow. (Let there be light,
God made it so.)
A must, let's clean out the
medicine chest and cabinet
drawers of all outdated (over a
year old) prescription bottles and
pills. Save the labels if you want
to reorder in the future. Iodine
and mercurochrome lose strength
after a year.
The Hood Canal Sportsman's
Club had a work party Jan. 18.
Two members of the Washington
State Fisheries Department were
there to help. Twenty-five trees
were planted in the water at the
dock at Alderbrook with the butt
end up and a weight tied on the
CONCERN FOR SEWAGE
With more than 100,000
persons living in the
Thurston-Mason Health District,
over 5,000,000 gallons of raw
sewage is processed daily. Most of
it is washed away with fresh,
potable household water. While
this is extremely convenient, one
would wonder at the quality of
the water. City residents know
their household effluent finds its
way to a treatment plant where
solids are removed and the liquid
is flushed into South Puget
Sound. Others rely on private
septic tanks and dramttelds and
hope that Good Mother Nature
will make the wastes disappear
miraculously. Not so! Sewage is a
constant source of intense work
done by the environmental health
division. A large share of the time
of the specialists goes into
assuring adequate sewage disposal.
They probe for any possible
contamination of water supplies
used for piping into homes.

The National Association of
Postmasters held their winter
convention at the Hyatt House at
Sea-Tac. Many postmasters from
Mason County attended,
including Mrs. Wanda Meek; also
many from the regional office in
San Francisco.
Some local people are still on
the sick list: the Buechel family,
Dorothy Aldrick, Mrs. Golf and
Mr. Bonner (Lucille Blake's
father) is in the hospital. A
speedy recovery and good health
is wished for all.
Welcome home, Jeffe.
Grandson of Wing and Frances
Huson, Jeffe Lowe arrived home a
week ago after having chalked up
a three-year hitch in the Army.
His last assignment was a year in
Korea so he's mighty happy to be
home for good.
It was another get together
with friends last week to help
Brian Fretwell celebrate his 23rd
birthday. Many happies, Brian.
Well, another new tax for
business establishments such as
ours. A five spot plus for litter
control. You see, we handle paper
bags for our customers' purchases
and things like pop, beer, etc.,
come in containers. Now, I don't
know any other place to put such
purchases. I suppose customers
could carry the solid items out a
few at a time and set them on the
seat of their automobiles but
don't think that would set too
well with them or us. The pop
and beer? I could ask people to
bring their own containers to
pour it in, I guess, but 1 don't
think that would set too well,
either.
! Now, I don't know where this
money is going out here. There
isn't a litter barrel (not that all
would use them) in our area.
And you think the price of
sugar is high? I wonder if any of
those in Olympia have checked
into the price of paper bags lately.
As for bottles and cans, we pay
every month for those we retrieve
to our garbage pick-up service.
Oh well, five bucks here, five
bucks there. Wonder what they'll
dream up this time around.
Well, two more weddings at
our little church here in Tahuya.
Details .on those will be found in
next week's column.
Father Tom Osgood from
Seattle conducted services at the
church last Sunday filling in for
Father Avery who is on the sick
list.
I don't know if you've read
any of Bill Speidel's books, but
his most recent "The West Side of
the Mountains" mentions our
store here. He writes about
Bremerton and then on to
references about Belfair and the
Beifair State Park.
He then writes, and I quote,
"On to Tahuya, where visiting the
Tahuya Grocery is worth at least
a package of cigarettes or a Coke.
It's barn-red and white and looks
as though somebody chewing on a
straw ought to be rocking on the
big front porch."
The "chewing on the straw"
bit reminds me of the following:
Farmer Jones was noted for being
tight-fisted. Just as the family was
sitting down to dinner one
evening, they heard the sound of
the front gate opening. Peeking
through the curtains, he saw his
cousin's family coming up the
walk.
"Quick, everybody," Farmer
Jones said. "Grab a toothpick and
walk out to the front porch."
DOGS, LOST, FOUND
A miniature police dog
wearing a collar was reported
found on the Old Belfair Highway
and a basset hound reported
missing from Belfair, both on
January 1 5.

"a team which is clearing a new

Patti Harrison and Robin
Tyler are humanists, jesters, and
feminists - in that order. They
rip into social institutions or
myths that oppress us all; sexism,
racism, organized religion,
advertising, the male-dominated

society's caste system. They are
not afraid to treat such prohibited
topics as lesbianism, homophobia,
and homosexuality.
