The annual Mason Count
Homemakers meeting this week
featured facts about financial
planning for retirement. County
Agent Jane Windsor presented an
example of a retired couple's bud-
et and Mr. S. Anderson, Tacoma
broker gave the audience an un-
derstanding of investments that
provide dollar growth in inflation-i
ary times.
THE BUDGET shown was for
a couple living in an $8,000 fully
paid for home---with good car
paid for and all life insurance
paid up plus the couple having
reasonably good ilealth. The mau
was retiring at 65 and his wife
was 62. Social Security inconle
was listed at $174.70 per month
and it was assumed the couple
bad $60.00 per month coming in
on company pension or from some
investment.

Poses of the Evergreen Safety

GOLD BUG A-BITING
To The Editor:
On Labor Day a friend and I
drove to Lake Chclan, roy sccond
time there since 1896. At that
time it was mostly cow country--
bucking horses mid two-gun men,
I if they had the drop on you.
Today it has more Kitsap and
Grays Harbor cars than there
were cows then. We stopped at
the only placc we could get for
the night. It was much like a tent
as it was so full of flies thai: 1
worked a P.I. to shrcds killing
them. The fruit is just in the con-
dition to call the flies.
The lake is beautiful in the
moonlight and lighted up with
porch-lights all night, so they
could see who came, I was told.
The old Stevens Pass is mul
different than 64 years ago, but
my car had to go on the bum on
it, just as bad as thc old Model
T would, and of course it was a
Ford from the Chev outfit in Shel-
ton.
We came back over the old
Blewett Pass, which in my time l
was as the rest of the country--a
cow range as well as a mining dis-
trict. I was told that iv/ the early
days and up to my time there was:
over $3 million worth of gold ta-
ken out of the Blewett, or Swauk
Creek mines.
Some of the old mines are still
at work, I understand, yet many
are said to be worked out. But
there is a fresh crop of gold to be
had each spring as the crcek re-
cedes and the water gets low en-
ough.
There was an old friend of mine
who came west in 1844 just be-
fore the '49 gold rush. Fie toot€

burg on the Willson Creek hill ov-

the home of the man who wrote
"The Man With the Hoe". His
name was W. T. Seaton. As I re-
member his home was down on
the stream. I have the picture of
the old house, that is, what is
left of it some two years ago. 1
also have a picture of old John
Lillard's house which is left and
ome of an old breaking plow just
as I unhooked from it as I was
helping Lillard in 1897 a short
time before he died.
Nothing was moved from the

think I will have to go back to
the Blewett anti try rny luck a:
there are a ]clt of new outfits
starting to operate there.
Old John Lillard had found gold
but would not .take out a claim
as he was afraid to. so many had
been killed for their gold fit the
early days when the gold was first
found, he said.
He said Ellm]burg was the most
dmtgerous place he had ever seen.
He called it "Robbers Roost". He
