where they stopped for a visit with
Mrs. Wren's mother and then on
to Grapeview, still nursing three
lingering cases of sea. sickness.
However, they recovered suffic-
iently to be kidnapped Wednesday
by the Bill Wrens of Seattle and
were happily whisked away for a
tour of Woodland Park Zoo and
other spots of interest. This is
pleasurable reciprocity for Bill
who goes to Alaska every winter,
contingent with his per.sonnel
work for Sears Mail order House,
and takes advantage of the trip
to visit with brother, Roy, and
family. (Roy is employed b.y the
Government Railways in AlasKa
and Mable is employed at the An-
chorage Clinic as an R.N.)
We hear that Mrs: Richard Cole-
man has been in bed this past
week doing battle with a cold. No
small wonder, considering the
temperature changes February has
dealt the "Banana Belt." First,
we get spring and summer cata-
logues, the crocUses: daffodils and
camelias pop out in buds and then
it snows sporadically over the
weekend !
MONDAY MORNING8 sloW
made travel difficult for several
of our local commUteis. Charles
Schwinn had his first driving mis-
hap in 31 years of driving when
tra.veling at Ahe stupendous speed
of twelve M.P.H., his vehicle slid
.determinedly into the ditch near
the Stadium Beach road. How-
ever, no damag.e was incurred and
neighborly Jerry Hill gave him
a successful toW.
Word was received last Wed-
neaday, Feb. 4, of the passing of
Mrs. John (Emma) McGlothlin, at
the St. Joseph's hospital in Van-
router, Wash., where she had been
hospitalized for the previous two
weeks. Emma was born in Vir-
ginia, 60-some years ago, but was
raised in Alva, Okla., where she
and John were married 44 years
ago. The McGlothlins first came
to Grapeview 32 years ago, occas-
ionally taldng time off to re-visit
Alva and their farms in north-
eastern Oklahoma near Siloam
Springs, Ark. Those members of
the immediate family surviving
Emma are her husband, John; son,
Charles and family who live near
Siloam Springs; daughter Alyce
and family, the Richard Cavanaghs
of Coos Bay, Ore.; and son, James,
and family of North Bend, Ore.
Emma comes from a large family,
one sister, Mrs. Lloyd Richey, liv-
ing here in Grapeview. Emma
was held in affectionate esteem by
her many friends in Grapeview
and certainly will be missed.
