And this is in no way to imply that things have become bad in this area; rather it is meant to say the canine species is the most news- worthy here this week. Besides Pennie, the heroine of last week's fire, there is a dog at Ballow which is also deserv- ing of some space in this col- umn for his recent adventure. During the recent week of snow and school closure the two Gla- ser boys Mike and Vince on sev- eral occassions took their guns and headed to the woods to keep from getting a ease of ca- bin fever. On one such occassion Mike returned to the house ahead of his brother. A short time later Vincc came running in calling for his Dad, Bub, to come quick- ly. After the first initial excite- ment was over and the story was unraveled it was learned as Vinee shot, his Grandmother's dog, Lucky, jumped in front and was hit by a ricocheting bullet, hitting him just in fron of the right leg. At the time of the accident the boy and the dog were be- tween two and three miles from home, near the junction of the Ballow road and the main road running north and south the leng- th of the Island. Vince's biggest decision was whether the dog was hurt badly enough to make it more humane to put him out of pain or if it was better to bring him back home and hope with enough care and doctoring he would survive the misfortune. Vince chose the latter course of action since Lucky didn't seem to be suffering. A neighbor visit- ing the Glasers at the time rounded up a dose of penicillin along with a needle from the Chuck Bridges family who had had it for their horses. The shots were continued for a number of days with the dog showing gradual improve- ment. The climax of the story took place this past weekend when the dog's owner, Celia Glaser stepped on something hard that rolled under her foot on the kitchen floor. She bent down to pick up the object and discovered it was a soft-nosed twenty-two shell ! This is Lucky's second encoun- ter with a bullet. Two or three years ago during hunting sea- son another bullet hit Lucky in the nose. It took a grat deal longer for the Lab to recover from that accident. And as for as is known he i s still carrying that particular bullet as a sou- venir of the occassion. Some folks around Ballow have taken to calling the Lab Lucky, Lucky. If there's anything to the superstition that accompanies the number three, we think Lucky had better not push his luck with any more bullets. The George Waite family was rendered nearly speechless by a surprise visit from their oldest son, Dave, who is currently stationed at Ft. Sill, Okla. this past weekend. Dave's sister, Cin- dy Bingham and her husband, Bill, were in on the surprise as he had arranged with them to meet him at the airport. But the three were successful in keeping it as a surprise until Saturday morning when Dave, nonchalantly walked in the WaRe home and said "Hi' everyone. Alvin Anderson called friends here on the Island this past week- end from his winter home in San- ta Barbara, Calif. to say he was much, much better now. Talk of the weather, of course, entered into the conversation. Alvin told his friends to be thankful they TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY GIRL, TO  IN to help L tl home. CaJl 426-3648.

Several neighbors of Celia Gla- ser gathered at her home on Monday of last week to help her celebrate her 751h birthday. They included Francis Madge, Beulah Hitchcock, Anna Glaser and Donette Glaser. Wanted, at least one and pos- sibly three or four quilting frames for, what else?, an old fashioned quilting bee. Donette Glaser is currently using her mother-in-law's guilting frame. However, a number of her neigh- bors have gotten interested and said they either had a quilt or two to complete or would just like to do one for the experi- ence. Anyone else on the Island is invited to jin the fun. But if any of you readers in the audi- ence know the whereabouts of a frame please c.ontact either Don- nie or your truly. Jim McAuliffe recently helped Skokomish: from Pleasant Harbor on Hood Canal. Due to adverse weather the trip took nearly three days. Plans had called for some work on the docks in Jarrells Cove. However, those plans were chan- ged due to the weather. Also another note about our Park Ranger. He was picked for jury duty and served sev- eral days last week In the jury. Dale Browning of Everett spent ae rg o D f.Everett spent three or four days here on the Island at his parents, the Wayne Browning's home on Sunset Hill. This proved handy, indeed, for Beulah, as during the heavy snow and freezing weather she was unable to get a car up the steep winding hill. The Irvie Wingerts spent Tues- day of this week calling on some former Islanders, the Roscoe Pages of Olympia. The Pages at one time made their home where Bob Thoma now has a sum- mer place. Stieg Gabrielsen's mother, Mrs. Magdalena Gabrielsen, was mov- ed from the Mason County Gen- with her just before the snow "holiday". One of the surprises that day was presented by Kim Smith who had baked a ginger- bread cake at home which ser- ved very nicely as a birthday cake in addition to the other treats. The children have placed a bird feeder outside the classroom window and despite the fact that it is filled with bird "goodies" no birds are coming around. Guess the second grade will just have to be patient. The class membership was swelled to 30 with the addition of Jeff Collins who came to Hood Canal from Aberdeen. He is liv- ing in Hoodsport. Dance To Aid Heart Fund Here • The Shelton Moose Lodge is sponsoring a benefit dance Feb- ruary 22, 9-2, in the Moose Hall at the airport. ting ready to start a unit on famous men of February.

Sandvig ...... • LAKE CUSHMAN -- It's still a "winter wonderland" here in Cushman Country, which means we wonder how much longer we will have winter. Really it's pret- ty fantastic to meet friends at Hoodsport who have been Scuba diving - and then drive up the Lake Cushman road and see peo- ple riding snowmobiles or ski- ing - literally "sea level to ski level" within four miles or less. The official rainfall recorded since Jan. 1, is 16.5 inches, but most of the precipitation has been in the form of snow which still measures 3 ft. and up. The lake level is down 20 feet which allows plenty of space for the spring run-off to be stored. Social life goes on in spite of cold and deep snow, perhaps the cold weather has made people appreciate friends more. The Jim Deans entertained the John Laramies, Bill Bryants, Charles Winnes and the Merle Lindgrens at a recent dinner party. The Don Rollevsons took a trip to Mossy Rock and May- field and visited the Verne Hunt- ers, Bruce Nelsons and the Leslie Robbins, all are former residents of Shelton and this area and now with Tacoma City Light at the new dams. When driving the Cushman or the canal roads it is not unusual to have to slow down or stop to allow deer to cross. The "coyote chorus" we've been hearing on some of the colder nights is enough to make chills run up your spine and brave dogs whine to get into the safety of the base- ment. These are just some of the reminders that we do live on the borders of the so-called pri- mitive areas, STOP SOOT, NOISE & DRAFTS WITH SELF-ADHESIVE Foam Stik Tape € WEATHER STRIP 5/32" x 3/8" x 18 ft. pkg.

Built.in "guard rails" There's a strong steel beam built into every door of every 1969 Caprice, Impala, Bel Air, Biscayne, Kingswood Estate Wagon, Kingswood, Townsman and Brookwood. We call it a side guard beam, and it looks like one of those uard rails you see along the eeway. That's what it's there for: To (uard you. To strengthen the oor and put a more solid wall between you and the outside world. Not a glamorous feature. But you'll have to admit worthwhile. Computer-selected springs Maybe you'll order your new Chevy equipped to the hilt. Or maybe you'll order it with hardly anything on it. Either way, you're going to get your full measure of our re- nowned ride. Because we go to the trouble of programming each car's equip- ment load into an electromc computer. The computer then tells us exactly which springs to use, depending on the car's weight and the way it's distributed. Chevrolet, the only car in its field with computer-selected springs. Fenders inside fenders We could have skipped this. (The other cars in our field do.) But we're as anxious as you are to keep your beautiful new Chevy looking beautiful and new. So: Up inside the regular fenders we've placed a second set. They do all the in-fighting. Catch all the splashed-up rain, slush and road salt. Stop the kicked-up stones. While your "outers" just sit there looking pretty. Astro Ventilation The other two cars in our field ive you air intakes down by the oor. So do we. We also give you two up on the instrument panel. And all four of them are adjust- able so you can regulate the flow of air just the way you like it. Even with all the windows closed, you'll be comfortable in- side. You get air without wind. Without noise. Astro Ventilation is stand- ard, now, on all the big Chevrolets. The theft-thwarter On the steering column there's a lock. Only Chevrolet has it, in Chevrolet's fielc. You turn the key and it locks three things: Your ignition. Your steering wheel. Your shift lever. When you own a car this tempting, you don't dare take chances. Biggest standard V8 in our field Ask any car enthusiast, he'll tell you: Chevrolet builds great engines. Especially V8s. And this year there are six reat V8s awtilable for the big Chevrolet. Standard: Our 235-hp 327-cubic-inch Turbo-Fire. Another thing: We've lowered the price of several of our bigger V8s along with our automatic transmissions and power disc brakes. Which makes it possible Ibr you to buy a '69 Chevrolet for even less money than you could last year. Show up for our Showdown. You can't lose. Putting you first, keeps us first.
