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 3 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 From where I sit . Jydoe Marsh I 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. poem Na. Free Acts Start at 8 P. M.

GRANT c. ANGLE, Editor BILL iii—CETE, News Editor 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.

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 woluced meal from the l I Ithe markets. , I The ten and fifteen dollar prizes'on the side will make it worthwhile for those who spend their odd time in this. form of home defense, and vegetables call for little sugar in their canning while it may not be so easy to put up 'the fruits and berries Which are always the best home defense. Judging by the mass of record cards being filled out for rationing, draft and employment files, the nation will have a wonderful census of our 130 million people which i I l ing bureaucrats. ma’s nighties to gain a few inches of cloth last tie that binds the past. \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\IIIIIIIIII’IIIIWIIIIIII/I/I/I/I/I/W/W § ,: ‘ \ I /// I § '7 . \\N‘ ‘i' ‘ flwfg \ -—‘ , l ' \\\'\\ Q § .. .\ mi 8 ‘\\ g g fl/J Celebrate With g OLD UNHY BRO Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey "CHEERFUL AS , 90.4 ITS AME” (all; lIIIIIlIIIl\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ m . ‘ u—. .— —. ——'_ —— —— .— ——" .—- .— "' ’— a": I... is .A/7/////l/////IIIIIIIII \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\ rp..
