HARSTINE - For the second
month in a row, the members of
the Harstine Women's Club will
be meeting in homes where they
have not previously held the
gathering. Last month the new
hostess and home was Beulah
Browning. This month, today, in
fact, the gals will be heading for
the Marina with Elsie Ness the
hostess. But its going to be a
terrible day for the Island's
dieting gals, for Elsie is famous
for her delicious foods.
A week from this Friday
evening will be a special date for
all Islanders to remember. The
Community Club will be devoting
this month's meeting to the pros
and cons of a fire district. And for
this occasion there will be two
guest speakers well qualified to
state facts and figures and answer
any questions you folks may
have.
The two speakers will be Hans
Hansgautner, Assistant Executive
Secretary of the State Fire
Commissioners Association from
Olympia and A. F. Nevitt,
Shelton Fire Chief. Wayne
Browning, president of the club
extends a very cordial invitation
to all the residents, not just Club
members, to attend this meeting
and get information firsthand.
The evening will proceed as
follows, first the guest speakers
after which there will be a
question and answer period. Then
there will be a recess before
having the regular business
meeting for the members of the
club.
Jim and Ella McAuliffe
returned home last Friday after
being away on a trip that lasted a
little over two weeks. They left
home bright and early on a
beautiful Wednesday morning. As
they approached the California
border they drove into a driving
rain and gusty winds. Their first
stop was in San Francisco to visit
Ella's Aunt and Uncle, then on to
Santa Clara where most of Jim's
family is and where a sister of

Ella's lives. After making the
rounds of the relatives they drove
on south to Twentynine Palms
where their son, Mike and his
family make their home. This
stop was the highlight of the trip,
as both of their grandchildren
reside here. Granddaughter, Gina
was equally delighted to have her
Grandpa and Grandma come to
visit her and her new brother and
parents at their home. And after
seeing their four-month old
grandson both Grandpa and
Grandma are bursting their
buttons with pride. Their stay
there came to and end all too
soon.
They headed east across the
California desert to Lake Havasu
in the worst wind storm they have
every encountered anywhere. The
native around those parts call that
particular kind of storm a Santa
Ana Wind. The travelers reported
the only bad weather they had on
the whole trip was in California.
Then they headed north to
Lake Mead. From there they
stopped overnight at Las Vegas to
see one of the big shows. After
that they were headed home
through Reno and on to Klamath
Falls, Ore. Other than California,
good weather prevailed
throughout the entire trip.
This is turning out to be a very
big week at the Marina. Besides
Elsie having Club this week we
learned Ted's birthday is on
Tuesday of this week and they
also have relatives visiting from
Finland•
Saturday afternoon the Nesses
traveled to Kent, while their son,
Glen and his wife, Sally held
down the fort. An Open House
for Mr. and Mrs. Aska Backstrom
from Helsinki, Finland was being
held at the home of their niece.
They also took advantage of the
get-together to celebrate Ted's
birthday•
The couple is spending two
months here in the States.
However, they planned to go on
down to Oregon Wednesday, so
Ted and Elsie brought them down
to the Island for a few days.
Sunday they had 17 people for
dinner. The guests came from
Olympia, Tacoma, Seattle and
Centralia. Later nine more came
for cake and coffee. All in all it
was a busy weekend, both
personally and business-wise with
the beautiful weather. Both
apartments were rented, besides
ISCUSS
there was a camper and a trailer,
too.
Saturday evening two Island
lads and their dads joined lots of
other lads and dads from the
Agate area in the annual
Father-Son Fun Nightat the
Pioneer School• There were a
variety of games and activities
followed by refreshments. The
Island lads were Chuck Bridges
and Rusty Yates accompanied by
their respective dads.
Harlan Jerrells and his wife,
Patty are visiting the Jack and
Florence Powell in Shelton. He is
currently looking for work in the
Shelton-Olympia area so that the
couple can make their home back
up here in Washington, after
having lived in California for the
past few years.
John and Cleta Niemi were
asked once again to be the chief
cooks for a Moose dinner at the
V.F.W. organization in Westport.
They have done this several times
in the past years. However, it's
been three years since they have
had the Moose feed. They cooked
for about 225 members and their
guests. The proceeds from the
feed this year are to go toward a
Youth Center. The Niemis took as
their guests the Oliver Buoris of
Bremerton.
Also from the Pt. Wilson area
we learned that the Brignone son,
Jerry, was out for the weekend
and helped Brig and Pete put in a
lawn around their mobile home.
This weekend before Pete and
Brig drove up to Tacoma to see
the new home their son, Joe and
his wife, Sharon have just
purchased and moved into in the
Fife area.
Held over From Last Week
The Harstine Grange met last
Friday evening• Following the pot
luck supper those present got
down to the business at hand. A
location for the Map Board has
been selected with the help of the
County Engineer, Cash Bridger.
The site is just to the right side of
the road as one approaches the
bridge. A fill will be made which
will allow ample room to pull
over and stop while studying the
map for directions.
March, by the looks of things,
is going to be a busy month for
Grangers• Degree work is
scheduled for two of the Friday
evenings, with Friendship
meetings claiming the remaining
~ng
two Fridays. Harstine has four
new members, the John Niemis
and the Hi Burches ready for the
initiation and degrees.
A group of gals, part Islanders
and the others from Shelton
surprised Mrs. Edith Smalley "by
dropping in with cake and coffee
for her birthday Feb. 23. Those
from the Island included Thora
Seward, Helen Lammers, Dot
Smith, Marie Crouch and Lila
Peugh. Those from Shelton were
Pauline Archer and two of her
children, oldest daughter, Kathy
and youngest son, John, and
Pauline's daughter-in-law, Margy
and her baby son.
For Dot Smith the day held
two birthday celebrations. That
evening she went to her
granddaughter, Cindy Bingham's
home to help celebrate Bill
B ingha m's birt hday.
We're sorry to report Mike,
Vincent and Patty Glaser's
grandmother, Mrs. Don Eddy
suffered a fall at her home a short
time back. She suffered a broken
collarbone, three broken ribs and
a broken hip, all on her left side.
She'll be confined to the Grays
Harbor Community Hospital for a
total of six weeks. And the
doctors have warned her she'll
probably have to stay in bed at
home for several months.
Irvie and Hilma Wingert wish to
express their most sincere and
heartfelt thank yous to all their
wonderful friends and neighbors
who have bestowed so many acts
of kindness and thoughtful
gestures, during their long seige of
the flu and more recently Irvie's
bout with pneumonia. After a
very long stay in the hospital Irvie
returned home last week and is
recuperating very, very slowly.
Down at Ballow visitors of
Frances Madge included Pete and
Liz McDougal and their two girls
from Seattle who were overnight
guests. Monday being a holiday a
nephew, Mike Cresek and his
family dropped down for the day.
The beautiful weather just seemed
to call for outdoor activities and
the numerous wiener roasts suited
all the small-fry to a "T'.
Over at the Celia Glaser home
most of the family gathered for a
family reunion. The occasion for
the gathering being that the oldest
son of the Glaser children and the
one living the furthest away drove
up for the weekend• Andy Glaser
accompanied by a friend traveled
from California to visit with the
family over the long three day
weekend. Most of Andy's
brothers and sisters and their
families also were on hand at the
family home here on the Island,
much to the delight of their
Mother, Celia.
We'd be willing to make a small
wager that Andy didn't leave any
lovelier weather behind in
California than he found when he
arrived back at his old home here
on the Island. One thing is sure;
we can still see the sun here and
they may have to take the
weatherman's word for it down
there!!
Here at your reporter's home
overlooking Case Inlet it was just
like Grand Central Station over
the past weekend. Saturday Paul
and Edna Lansky and daughter,
Myra came from Tacoma. They
were accompanied by their two
pet Dobermans, Hilda and six
month old Baron who will be
staying at the Yates' Animal
Shelter while the Lansky's try to
locate a new home for them. The
owners feel city life is just not fair
to the two animals who need
more room to run. The Lansky's
think the perfect answer to their
dreams would be if someone here
on the Island would be interested
in them so they could come and
visit them occasionally when they
came down to their own property
here.
In the first few minutes it
became apparent that Hilda and
the Yates' collie, Twinkle weren't
going to see eye-to-eye on any
subject so the Lanskys promised
to return the following day with
Hilda's chain so that Twinkle
wouldn't have to stay
housc-bound for the visitors stay.
Before the day was over the
Marvin Bengelsdorf family of four
accompanied by their Tacoma
friends, Elmer and Betty
Shoneman and their three
youngsters decided it was a good
day for a drive. They added three
roosters to the Yates assorted
managerie.
The improver of natural
knowledge absolutely refuses to
acknowledge authority, as such.
For him, skepticism is the highest
of duties; blind faith the one
unpardonable sin.
