100 Years Ago From the May 31, 1907, Mason County Journal: We have heard much about the "chute" at Bert Kneeland's camp on the lower Skokomish river, and had occasion to visit it this week. The slide is about seven hundred feet long down the steep hillside, and into the river, and the county road passes over the chute at the river. It is an interesting sight to see the large logs make the run in a few seconds, and not pleasant to the ranchers who pass that way. At the Council meeting Thursday evening F.C. Willey was awarded the contract for improving Pine street, the specifications having been modified to reduce the cost. The street will run closer to the hill and require much less filling than along the line of the sur- vey, although it will still cost $1600 for the work. emergency personnel and family members saved a tot who was pulled unconscious from a pool. Mary Bridge Children's Hospital spokesperson Todd Kelly said that 3 1/2-year-old Adolfo D. Uribe, the foster son of Mill Creek Road residents Dale and Lo- raine Clark, was discharged from the hospital to a follow-up care facility yesterday. A Tacoma man working on a steam locomotive on Johns Prairie last Sat- urday evening suffered fatal burns when steam escaping from a valve con- nection scalded him. Kurt Ferris, 43, a longtime friend of the locomotive's owner, Pete Replinger of Shelton, was taken to Mason General Hospital by a Mason County Fire District 5 aid unit after the 8:10 p.m. accident and then airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, where he died on Monday. He had been scalded over 80 percent of his body. : ::i¢ ¸ :i ¸II;I :ii!/¸ GREETING A GROUP from Pacific Integral that paid a call on the com- munity center in downtown Shelton are Sue Sheldon and Bob Bottman of Save Our County's Kids seated at the table on the left. rmony Hill hosting group th an integral wc,l"ld view from page 13.) cut and, barring any obsta- really wants to heal."

So 'conscious business' might mean, engaging in an occupation, work or trade in a mindful, awake fashion. This im- plies, of course, that many people do not do so. In my experience that is often the case." Pacific Irttegral's visit to Har- mony Hill and SOCK is part of a program called, "Generating Transtbrmative Change." Fees range from $2,950 for students to $7,900 fbr corporate participants. Enrollment is limited to 25 people, and the program envisions six five- day sessions held at Harmony Hill over the course of two nine-month periods. A second session was scheduled for May 29 to June 2 at which time persons enrolled in "Generating Transformative Change" are to have a "feedback session" with Sue Sheldon and Bob Bottman, the husband and wife team who are the ma and pa of SOCK. In the meantime, Leahy and the others are mulling things over in private and on the Internet. "We are tasked with reflecting on our own experience and were also in an on-line conversation process," Leahy said. "Our team is making ongoing posts to the on- line forum." THE INTEGRAL Movement is also making strides in distant lands. Jessie McKay, an integral thinker from Canada, reports that the group which visited SOCK and Harmony Hill had among its number a person from Ethiopia, a fabled land on the Horn of Africa on the east side of the continent. "There are a lot of different chal- lenges and a lot of complexities in Africa," McKay said. "We want to help Africa develop leaders who can deal with the situation there." African Integral is managed in cyberspace through Multiplex Community by John Vajra Clif- ford, who lives in Seattle and has worked in the nations of Togo, Ghana and Nigeria.
