....... i00inscotts Return
From California In Hood
Mr. and Mr.. O. K. Linseott re-
turned March 16 from a two-week
winter vacation in San Diego
where they traveled in company
with Mr. and 'Irs. Carl Rains of
Shelton to visit their children, Mr.
and Mrs. Robert l:,ins, and Mr.
;rod Mrs. l.obert Is:. Andrew of
l,a Mesa.
They took an additional 300-,
mile side trip in the Andrew's
station wagon to the Borego
Springs Resort in the Anzo des-
ert country east of San Diego.
The trip began with a climb into
the Laguna Mountains where, at
an elevation of 5,500 feet they
found seven feet of snow. Forty-
five minutes later they were down
to the Salton sea, 244 feet below
sea level.
Cactus was beginning to "bloom
and Ocotilla colorful. Pink and
verbena and evening primrose
made a lovely desert carpet. Mrs.
Linseott brought home t)ranches
from the smoke tree to use in
flower arrangements.
Interesting sight was farmers
in the lower Imperial valley plant-
ing their tomato crops for the
third time, recent cold weather
and frosts having killed the first
two plantings.
The Linscott party returned
home by the coast route through
the Redwoods. California weather
was sunny though they encounter.

Mrs. Pat Campbell
Talks Before Hood
Canal Women Club
Pat Campbell, Port Ludlow au-
ttmr of "Eliza" and "Lush Val-
ley," two popular Northwest nov-
els, tked Thursday to members
and guests of the Hood Canal
Woman's Chlb in Hoodsport. Witit
delightful humor, much of it ",tim-
ed in her own direction, she shar-
ed with an appreciative audieme
her experiences in the writing arid
publishing of her books and some-
thing ()i" the background of one
she is now writing. She was intro-
duced by Mrs. Mabel Avey, pro-
gram chairman.
Tall, '.slender, looking more like
a college senior than the mother
of a grown son, Patrieia Camp-
bell during the war chose to con-
centrate on fiction writing .ther
than on worrying about her boy
in the Navy. Her concentration
resulted in two novels which made
the best-seller list,
"Eliza," her first book, is now
in its fourth edition. Beginning
it as a project for a novel-writing
class under the direction of Dr.
George Savage of the University
of Washington, she would never
have been able to bring "Eliza" to
the publishing stage without the
advice and assistance of this
group, declares the author. She
adds that she could not have sur-
vived the revising stage, where
the beginner is apt to "bog down"
without Dr. Savage's "bull whip
and blue pencil."
Motivations for writing were
discussed, but the most success-
ful of underlying motives for cre-
ative writing, according to the
Northwest author, is the desire
to share with others one's own
understanding or picture of
things.
Before her afternoon talk, Mrs.
Campbell was guest of honor at a
buffet hmcheon served in the
club room. She was presented
with a corsage of Christmas roses
made by Mrs. Ous Peterson of
the garden department. Purple
and white spring flowers were ar-
ranged on a St. Patrick's Day
green runner on the buffet table
while green paper, shamrocks
were m the small tables. Host-
esses were Mrs. Peterson, Mrs.
Lee Erhart, Mrs. N. J. Sceva, Mrs.
Frank Robinson and Mrs. Edward
Radtke.
Among the guests were Mrs.
U. A. Goudie of Fairfax, Wash.,
Substantial Reductions . MarYClubEdmistonMrS" A. L. Sheltraw, Seattle; MrS.and.Mrs,E. Thelerof thew.BelfairandA. WitsiersMrS'w°manD°lphandS
