Our sixth grade youngsters had
a wonderful time last Friday on
their trip to the tree farm where
they saw good forest management
practices, to provide a continuous
source of raw material for the
county's basic industry. From
Union were Janice Blake, Richard
Wyatt and Seth Soles.
Mr. and Mrs. Dunning, the new
host and hostess at St. Andrews,
have had a busy time these last
weeks and as the weather warms
up and sunny days remain with us
longer, the Dunnings will really
have their hands full, but then
they love it so.
The youngsters on the Canal
look forward every year to the
"Kids Fishing Party" sponsored
by the Hood Canal Sportsman's
Association. This year it is Sun-
day, April 28, and as usual at
Wright Carlson's ponds, from 1:30
to 3:30 p.m. ¥ishing, fun ad
food, all for free. The kids fish-
ing party originated some ten or
twelve years ago in Hoodsport
and was set up by Mr. Archie Cal-
lahan, the idea being to instill
sportsmanship in the kids, also
conservation and proper fishing
technique.
The Sportsman's Club will meet
Thursday, April 30, at the Com-
muiMty hall, Union. There will be
nomination of new officers. Elec-
tion will be next month in May.
The film to be shown, is a film on
oysters, which we hoar is most
interesting. Oh. yes, must add,
this is a hoped for film.

that it was really coming down.
And then, just to prove that she
does have a kind heart, the week-
end blossomed forth with the glor-
ious sunshine that thrilled th.e
hearts of the anxious fishermen.
The Canal tlighway was a busy
place on Saturday and early Sun-
day as boats of every description
raced past toward their fishing
destination. Hope they all had
good luck, but with such a day, an
excursion into the woods would
be just as grati£ving.
LAST WEEK'was a busy oue
for the fifth and sixth grade stu-
dents of Hoodsport. On Thursday
the fifth grade students of Mrs.
Frances Ross' room accompanied
by Mrs. Lea Sandvig, Mrs. Sid
Anderson, Mrs. George Clark, and
Mrs. Bob Pcarce, left early in the
morning for Olympia where they
bbarded the train for a trip to Se-
attle. In Seattle they were met by
a chartered bus which took them
to the museum to view the Van
Gagh exhibition. Then for a thrill-
ing time viewing lhe many won-
ders of Woodhmd Park and home
again by train, a tired but hap-
py bunch of kids.
The sixth grade students of Mrs.
Helen Cook were included tn 1he
county-wide group that traveled
to the Pan-Handle Lake,Yree farm
for an educational hick into the
business of perpetuattlg the
growth of trees and the logging
industry. They took sack hmches
and were treated to pop.
Students of the seventh and
eigth grades at Lower Skokomish
school traveled to Quilcene on Sat-
urday for four baseball games.
The girls lost their game by a

Our sixth grade youngsters had
a wonderful time last Friday on
their trip to the tree farm where
they saw good forest management
practices, to provide a continuous
source of raw material for the
county's basic industry. From
Union were Janice Blake, Richard
Wyatt and Seth Soles.
Mr. and Mrs. Dunning, the new
host and hostess at St. Andrews,
have had a busy time these last
weeks and as the weather warms
up and sunny days remain with us
longer, the Dunnings will really
have their hands full, but then
they love it so.
The youngsters on the Canal
look forward every year to the
"Kids Fishing Party" sponsored
by the Hood Canal Sportsman's
Association. This year it is Sun-
day, April 28, and as usual at
Wright Carlson's ponds, from 1:30
to 3:30 p.m. ¥ishing, fun ad
food, all for free. The kids fish-
ing party originated some ten or
twelve years ago in Hoodsport
and was set up by Mr. Archie Cal-
lahan, the idea being to instill
sportsmanship in the kids, also
conservation and proper fishing
technique.
The Sportsman's Club will meet
Thursday, April 30, at the Com-
muiMty hall, Union. There will be
nomination of new officers. Elec-
tion will be next month in May.
The film to be shown, is a film on
oysters, which we hoar is most

this is a hoped for film.

that it was really coming down.
And then, just to prove that she
does have a kind heart, the week-
end blossomed forth with the glor-
ious sunshine that thrilled th.e
hearts of the anxious fishermen.
The Canal tlighway was a busy
place on Saturday and early Sun-
day as boats of every description
raced past toward their fishing
destination. Hope they all had
good luck, but with such a day, an
excursion into the woods would
be just as grati£ving.

dents of Hoodsport. On Thursday
the fifth grade students of Mrs.

py bunch of kids.
