LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR...
VIGILANCE NEEDED TO KEEP
CANAL WATER CLEAN
Dear Mr. Dickle:
We, who are fortunate enough
to live on Hood Canal, are Justly
proud of the fact that the waters
of the Canal are considered by
many to be the cleanest salt wa-
ters in the entire State of Wash-
ington. The absence of pollution is
due mainly to the efforts of the
Belfair Women's Club, the mem-
bers of which sponsored a project
a few years ago to "KEEP HOOD
CANAL WATERS CLEAN." With
the necessary and whole-hearted
support and co-operation of the
Thurston-Mason C o u n t y Health
Department, this project resulted
In the passage of sewage and gar-
bage disposal ordinances by the
Commissioners of Mason County.
It is sad to relate, however, that
there are still some people who
seem to think that the Canal is
the natural waterway in which to
dispose of trash, brush, stumps,
and whatever else they may wish
to get rid of. Very likely these are
nice people who would not dream
of disposing of their garbage and
such on the front lawns of their
neighbors. Yet, this is precisely
what they are doing as the tide
and the wind will sce to it that all
such refuse is deposited on some-
body else's beach; and our beaches
actually are our front yards.
It would be well for such of-
fenders to heed the fact that a
conviction was recently obtained
against some violators of these or-
dinances who were seen dumping
empty bottles on a private beach.
They were apprehended, arrested
and fined $25.00 and costs in the
Belfair Justice Court under the
jurisdiction of Judge Joe C. Peters.
In addition to the fine, these of-
fenders were made to clean up
the mess they had created. So,-- ff
any of you readers are planning
to desecrate the Canal in this
fashion, better not be caught at iti
Of course, there may be some
new residents who violate these
ordinances through thoughtless-
ness or ignorance of the law, so it
is up to all of us to bring this mat-
ter to the attention of mr new
neighbors. It is only through the
co-operation of all that we can
continue to "KEEP HOOD CAN-
AL WATERS CLEAN" and our
beaches free of broken bottles and
other refuse that are not only un-
sightly but a serious menace to
swimmers along our shores. Let
none of us be guilty of violating!
these ordinances which were pass-
ed for the protection and benefit
of all.
Thank you for giving space to
this letter in your "Letters to the
Editor" department.
Yours most sincerely,
BELFAIR WOMEN'S CLUB
Mrs. G. G. Shackleford,
President

son's. Darlene Holtorf brough

flowers on the streets, we will be
aiding the war's living victims by
the contribution we make for the
flower.
The poppies which we will wear
n Poppy Days are not natural
flowers from the battlefields. They
are flowers which have even
significance than any na-
ture could produce. They have been
made in hospitals and workrooms
where wars' suffering still is going
on. They have bloomed under the
ands of men disabled in war.
THE DISABLED veterans who
hake the poppies derive double
benefits from the work. First, it
gives them employment their
only chance to help support them-
selves and families. With strength
and health gone, they cannot do
regular work, but they can make
poppies. Even in their hospital
beds they can do this work, earn-
ing money for each flower they

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR...
VIGILANCE NEEDED TO KEEP
CANAL WATER CLEAN
Dear Mr. Dickle:
We, who are fortunate enough
to live on Hood Canal, are Justly
proud of the fact that the waters
of the Canal are considered by
many to be the cleanest salt wa-
ters in the entire State of Wash-
ington. The absence of pollution is
due mainly to the efforts of the
Belfair Women's Club, the mem-
bers of which sponsored a project
a few years ago to "KEEP HOOD
CANAL WATERS CLEAN." With
the necessary and whole-hearted
support and co-operation of the
Thurston-Mason C o u n t y Health
Department, this project resulted
In the passage of sewage and gar-
bage disposal ordinances by the
Commissioners of Mason County.
It is sad to relate, however, that
there are still some people who
seem to think that the Canal is
the natural waterway in which to
dispose of trash, brush, stumps,
and whatever else they may wish
to get rid of. Very likely these are
nice people who would not dream
of disposing of their garbage and
such on the front lawns of their
neighbors. Yet, this is precisely
what they are doing as the tide
and the wind will sce to it that all
such refuse is deposited on some-
body else's beach; and our beaches
actually are our front yards.
It would be well for such of-
fenders to heed the fact that a
conviction was recently obtained
against some violators of these or-
dinances who were seen dumping
empty bottles on a private beach.
They were apprehended, arrested
and fined $25.00 and costs in the
Belfair Justice Court under the
jurisdiction of Judge Joe C. Peters.
In addition to the fine, these of-
fenders were made to clean up
the mess they had created. So,-- ff
any of you readers are planning
to desecrate the Canal in this
fashion, better not be caught at iti
Of course, there may be some
new residents who violate these
ordinances through thoughtless-
ness or ignorance of the law, so it
is up to all of us to bring this mat-
ter to the attention of mr new
neighbors. It is only through the
co-operation of all that we can
continue to "KEEP HOOD CAN-
AL WATERS CLEAN" and our
beaches free of broken bottles and
other refuse that are not only un-
sightly but a serious menace to
swimmers along our shores. Let
none of us be guilty of violating!
these ordinances which were pass-
ed for the protection and benefit
of all.
Thank you for giving space to
this letter in your "Letters to the
Editor" department.
Yours most sincerely,
BELFAIR WOMEN'S CLUB
Mrs. G. G. Shackleford,
President

flowers on the streets, we will be
aiding the war's living victims by
the contribution we make for the
flower.
The poppies which we will wear
n Poppy Days are not natural
flowers from the battlefields. They
are flowers which have even
significance than any na-
ture could produce. They have been
made in hospitals and workrooms
where wars' suffering still is going
on. They have bloomed under the
ands of men disabled in war.
THE DISABLED veterans who
hake the poppies derive double
benefits from the work. First, it
gives them employment their
only chance to help support them-
selves and families. With strength
and health gone, they cannot do
regular work, but they can make
poppies. Even in their hospital
beds they can do this work, earn-
ing money for each flower they

value in aiding their recovery, oc-

to put on the poppy remembrance
