Net men know00:..00 ............ "It's a Case of Enjoyment" f OLYMPIA "lt's the TV BREWING CO., OLYMPIA, WASH. • INTRODUCE MOTHER Mother's Day Dinner --0-- Mr. Waldon formerly operated well known restaurants in Aberdeen and Seattle and has just joined our staff. We invite you to give Mother a treat  and yourself, too  by taking her out for Mother's Day dinner at SHELTON HOTEL COFFEE SHOP (Contlnued from page I) 'in January. But only a minor part of the increase was for grants to this state's own needy aged. Al- most two thirds of the $590,583 increase for the one month period went to "general assistance" for which $1,433,121.83 was obligated in February. General assistance is the relief category which provides permanent payments to residents of one year and assistance to down-and-outers with no qualifica- tions, other than need, regardless of residence. Q N the same month expenditures for senior citizen grants increas- ed only 1.5 per cent, with 971 new cases drawing grants slightly below the January average. Half of the remainder of the increase went to added costs for "health care," for which four fifths of a million dollars was spent. Flag- rant abuse of the program was given as the reason for the recent resignation of the Pierce County hospital director after 25 years of service. Quitting in disgust, he cit- ed the case of a woman demand- ing, and getting, more than $10 in ambulance anti taxi transporta- tion plus medical fees and drug expense for a simple throat In- flammation, "something for which you and I would have gone o the corner dnlg store to get a bottle of cough syrup." But, he pointed out, "the hospital has no choice  (under 172) but to accept these LU and similar cas;." ..= t /7_ {4,,,  I'TRWNT rlpHE tragedy ts that if similar I t   l monthly increases are eontinu- Jt qkJ l.Jl  ed throughout the next two years, WALDON'S the general assistance and health care categories alone will require more than three quarters of the I ; "a''Z, ., f- COOKING $203 million appropriated for all l.- i if public assistance.

SHELTON-MASON COUNTY JOURNAI BOYS LEARN FACTS ON TREES AT MONTHLY FORESTRY CAMP Eleven Grays I-Iarbor and Ms- the major phases of tile project I son county 4-H forestry members work. i held their second monthly fores- i try camp at the Panhandle 4-H camp April 23 and 24. Bill Loon- ey, forester for the South Olym- pic Tree Farm and forestry pro- ject leader for the camp, was present to teach tile boys prin- ciples of scientific tree farming. A SURVEYING crew of 4-H boys, led by Looney, nearly com- pleted running the lines on the 30 acres of forest land owned by the 4-H clubs. Two additional crews began cruising the down timber in two plots of the land. Early in the two-day camp the 4-H boys planted a "dedication forest" of 100 trees. This plot of! trees will be staked off and used for observation during succeeding camps and will be remembered I as the first planting made by 4-H! groups of the two counties. Re- ports were given by individuals instructed to find markets for various types of timber. During the first camp in March members learned to read maps, surveying instruments, and sec- tion posts and began the survey- ing. Plans for .the forestry project are to establish the boundaries of the property and estimate the down and standing timber accord- ing to kinds used. Down timber and snags will be then reclaimed and sold. Marketing wil be one of Air Drift SHELTON AIRPORT NEWS by Kurt Mann The high winds and terrible storms of the past week end up- set a number of plans for cross- country trips, Several of the local "birds" had intended flying east of tim Cascades and others planned trips south, but the weather-man decreed otherwise. Elgin Sharpe and Frank TraviS at- tempted getting to Salem, Oregon, but had to give up after reaching Scapoose. So... perhaps t h t s week end will be better. * * * Norris and Jackie Rau sold their T-Craft this past week and now own a Cessna I20, which is a two-pierce all-metal side by side plane. It will undoubtedly afford them more flying pleasure than a tandem. Norman Castle, who was re- cently approved by the Veterans Administration for a course of commercial flying, is quite the eager beaver. Hardly a day passes that he isn't out there trying to get ill some flying time, and should solo this week. Tommy Wilkerson and his fam- ily left Shelton this week for Blakely Island where Tom has ac- cepted a position as pilot for a flying club. We understand he will have charge of a Seabee and an Aeronca Sedan. Sounds like lhe perfect job for one wbo is as fond of airplanes as Tommy. All wish hijn good luck. STANDING TIMBER will be thinned later and tim thinnings sold. Alder will be sold" to mills sawing furniture stock. Areas which are bare of evergreens or made bare by harvesting trees will be reforested. Once the project is well under- way a perpetual forest will be maintained by selective logging and reforestation, and at no one time will all the trees be cut. Boys will then be able to man- age their farm woodk)ts with the know-how of an educated fores- ter. From reports of the "timber cruisgrs" at the week end camp, the timber will be utilized for peeler logs, saw logs, shake bolts, shingle bolts, fence posts, piling, telephone poles, ties, furniture stock, stove wood and fibre board. Tlere will be relatively no waste from all timber harvested or re- claimed. Plans were made by boys to plant a crop of Christmas trees on their home woodlots. Grays Harbor 4-H boys present for the last camp were: Rex Valentine, Montesano; Jerry Schellke, Gor- don "' C0dy: Allen. Sexton, Don Borden, Tally Hall and Dan Ho- g'an, Elms. Mason county 4-H members attending were Jerry Richert, Gene Irwin, Bob Hunter, Jim Hunter, Tom and Joe Buechel.
