No. 3's Kneeland Sub adjacent to the Bonneville Power Administration's Mason Sub in Shelton. The new regulator will provide regulation for all circuits out of the Sub Station and by a change in the main bus feeders allow portions of the station to be de-energized for partial upgrading and rebuilding. lanning very first grandchild arrived a week ago Tuesday. Bryan Roger weighed in at 61bs. and 7 oz. in a San Diego, Calif., hospital. The proud new parents are Roger and Raquel Cruickshank. And the new grandma, with buttons popping, was in town for the big event, having left here a couple of weeks ago to visit with friends and relatives while awaiting the new baby's grand entrance. The Island in general and the Island Shores area in particular is welcoming some new residents here as of last week. Late last August the Elwood Bragets started construction on their new Island home. At the time they hoped to be able to move around the end of the year or at least right after the turn of the new year. However, disposal of their Puyallup home either by sale or lease took a bit longer than planned. So at last, with the house leased, Kay and Elwood were able to move to the Island, lock, stock, and barrel last week, into the home that has been finished and awaiting their arrival for a little over three months. They are delighted to be here and the bread winner says getting to and from work is child's play now, compared to traveling to his job at the Supply Center of the Puget Sound Naval Company in Bremerton from their former home in Puyallup, as he has been doing for these past many months. Two dogs, Fritz and Dec and a calico cat, Little, complete the Braget family. However, as far as Little is concerned someone can move that big puddle (Case Inlet) in front of the Braget home; fill it in, drain it, anything just get rid of it, since it has done nothing but kick up its heels and terrify her since her arrival here. Other news from Island Shores is that Alvin Anderson arrived here the end of last week from his winter home in Santa Barbara. He called on Johnnie and Lucille Johnson and said he will probably be here until about the end of next month, at which time he'll return to California for his wife, Peggy and son, Mark so that they can all spend the summer here in the Northwest. Accompanied by close relatives Mi Brassfield headed for the sunny, warm side of our state a week ago this past weekend. Mi's daughter, Rheba and her husband, Elmon Christopher and their son Buck and his wife, Karen and their two girls, left Olympia bright and early on Saturday morning headed for Walla Walla to pay a visit to Mi's grandaughter, Linda Walker and her husband and family and their two children• They picked that particular weekend so they could all help Linda celebrate her April 4 birthday. On the way over they encountered a snow storm going across the pass, but enjoyed warm shirt sleeve weather all during their stay. The Island's small-fry are having a busy week this week. Monday the Cub Scout Den Six of which Rusty Yates is a member, along with Den Three traveled to Shelton to be the guests of Fire Chief AI Nevitt and his firemen for a tour of the Fire Station. Thursday evening Pam and Johanna Bridges and Lisa Yates will join with the rest of the Mason County Robinettes to perform for the Shelton, P.T.A. Sincere sympathy this week is extended to the Stan Yates on the loss of his sister, Lena Coffman. She died Monday in Snoqualmie. Funeral services will be at 1 p.m. in her home-town of Sultan, today. We also learned that Ben Rigney shortly after recovering from a bout with the flu bug suffered a sprained ankle while on a trek through the woods.

We noted when traveling down to Ballow early this week, that Lloyd and Ruth Goodwin had given their house a facelifting. Ruth reported that they had managed to get two coats on the house and had planned to do the trim after coming home Wednesday, however, the weather left a bit to be desired, so that job along with a facelifting for their cruiser will have to wait a bit longer. Ruth reported that news-wise, things had been quiet since they came home from their trip to Oregon during Spring Vacation, to visit their son, Dick and his family. She said their trip down was especially enjoyable this year as the Columbia River Gorge had just been attired in a new spring outfit, which was enchantingly becoming to her. Then while they were there Dick and his family took them on a drive across Tollgate Pass in LaGrande. They encountered a real snow storm going across the summit to give them a taste of winter they missed at home this year. This reporter had a delightful visit while shopping in Shelton with a former resident of the Island, Florence Powell. She was looking" very good following recent surgery. Also she told of the recent birth of a new grandson to her step-daughter Joan and her husband, Roger, back on the east coast. And the excitement around the Powell home is, that same morning her step-son, Harlan and his wife, Patty had moved a mobile home into the Powell backyard and were busy getting it ready for the young couple's occupancv.
