You ought to meet my friend, Will
Dudley. I suppose Will must be
seventy-eight or nine . . . but you’d
never know it. He’s tall and lean
and hard as a hickory. And al-
though the only formal education
he ever had was a few winters in
the old red schoolhouse, I think
that he’s the wisest man I know in
many ways.
For one thing, Will taught me
the value of what he calls “Just
a-settin!”
I

Come upon Will in the evening,
when his hard day’s work is done,
and you’ll find him “just 1-settin,"
in a rocker on his porch. In one
hand he’ll have his old briar pipe
and in the other, a tall cool glass
of beer.
“Wholesome, appetizin’ beer,”
says Will, “is standard equipment
for proper settin! Puts a feller in
an easy-goin’ peaceful mood.”
'I P III
You see, Will holds the theory
that in our present mixed-up world,
a man needs a quiet hour every
day. An hour in which to sit down

quietly and restore his strength
and courage.
Will thinks, and I agree with him,
that a man ought to forget all his
own and the world’s worries dur-
ing that hour-of-peace. And Will
feels that a glass of fragrant mel-
low beer helps most to bring you
quiet relaxation.
*‘I!
Show me the man who sits
down quietly of an evening with
his glass of beer and I’ll show you
a man who is wise in the ways of
living. Such men, like Will Dudley,
live to a ripe old age, unembittered
by the troubles of the world. They
seem to remain, all their lives,
sweet-natured and kindly.
Time has a way of rendering ac-
curate judgments on the value of
the things men use and enjoy in
the world. And Time . . . thousands
of years of it . . . has handed down
the verdict that beer is a. pleasant
and worthy companion for all men
of good will.

PERPETUATING TIMBER INDUSTRY 1
The Simpson Logging Company, the pioneer logging
operating concern in Mason County, has‘embarked on an
extensive program of taking over and adding to its own
extensive land holdings which include practically all the
timbered lands it has logged during the years, and as-
suming the major part in the reforesting of these lands,
as well as their protection in future from fire hazards.
The main objective is to embrace these lands in a
large body so they may be better policed and protected,
a program which must be carried on for from thirty to
to carry the hazards and expense, including annual taxes
to help support the county, other county taxpayers should
Mason County has been glad in recent years to sell
its tax-lands at one dollar an acre, to private persons who
checked and selected the best of the lands with any tim-
ber or other value; while the Company is making a blan-
ket offer of one dollar an acre for all the county has, in-
cluding its barren lands on which trees are slow to start
or for some reason may not be possible of reforesting. The
future of Mason County lies in the perpetuation of its
timber industry, and any move in that direction deserves
encouragement. ,
The Simpson Company, by its leadership in the field
of reforestation and by the recent expansion of its lum-
bering operations, has proven its confidence in the future
of the northwest and the nation. It sets a shining example
for business everywhere in these days when many seem
inclined to look with uncertainty to the future.

FROM DAVID SHELTON TO GEORGE WASHINGTON
The story appearing in The Journal of May 8th, refer—
ring to Admiral William Harrison Standley, recently ap-
pointed Ambassador 'to Russia, and noting that David
Shelton, the founder of Shelton, was also a direct des-
cendant of the George Washington family, and of the
“F.F.V’s” or First Families of Virginia, through Genera
Washington’s sister, Betty, is brought down to date by
n
Lewis for his 19-year-old bride, Betty Washington, now
preserved by the Patriotic Women of Fredericksburg, Vir—
ginia, as a museum. ‘
It will be noted in the history of the Northwest that
many of those early pioneers were true Americans ill that
their families dated back several generations to Revolu—
tionary days and even earlier, migrating Westward by
easy stages and following the frontiers, coming “Around
the Horn,” “Across the isthmus,” or by wagon train; in
contrast to the great wave of immigration from the Old
Countries which followed” the Civil War and made of
IAmerica a polygot nation in which early American an-
lcestry has been lost in the melting pot of inter-marriage.
There are several of the first Mason County families who
could trace their genealogy back to Revolutionary days

HOW’S YOUR VICTORY GARDEN?
In spite of the backward spring some town gardens i
are making a showing but there are not nearly enough
to make good the shortage that will be upon us this sum-
mer and fall, and for the winter ahead, of the green goods
Shelton will need to carry its people through.
To encourage more gardens and better care of them
the Kiwanis Club is offering prizes for the best home pro-
garden and for the best display of
home canned goods this fall, which will take the place
of the usual fall fairs and make the home independent of
