1965 SuT)Dlement of HELTON-MASON COUNTY JOURNAL SeQ. ...... ,, I I I , SEVENTY-FIVE WE ARE, so the calendar says. Seventy-five years in one place. Is that standing still or moving? With Simpson, and with the Shelton Working Circle communities, it has been moving. Positively go-go. Through lean years and thick, the 75 years of Simpson in Mason County have been marked by the growth of our organization, growth in our ability to serve markets, growth in our timber, growth in our population and growth in the con- viction that properly-managed forest resources bring benefits to mankind. The results of 75 years testify to the sound judg- ment of Sol G. Simpson in setting up his little log- ging company here in 1890. That venture flick- ered along with the usual problems of a new busi- ness. In 1895, partner Alfred H. Anderson join- ed Simpson in establishing a strong Simpson Log- ging Company, a name this community was to know for 60 years. Company Under the firm o idance of Mark E. Reed, whose career with the company ranged from 1896 to 1933, Simpson steered into the manufacturing and merchandising of wood. And ever since it has continued in that direction. The widening course' of Simpson Timber Company has carried its name into many states and later into many countries. The years ahead are filled with promise for Simpson and for the people of this bountiful region. Seventy-five years of accomplishment have built ample foundations for the future. We look forward to a future of continual timber crops in the Shelton Working Circle. We look forward to greater opportunities for the people of this area to enjoy good living and happiness from the benefits of the forests. On this 75th an- niversary, we thank the people of the Shelton Working Circle for their expressions of good will and for their confidence in our efforts. 'I ii !i: i:i i! !I 'i j !i: i: ii! ii !t li: We measure the future in terms of the thriving young forests which cover the Shelton Working Circle.
