The reading club theme this year is "The Way West" which means each library has a large supply of children's books on pioneers and the wild West. Members of the club are asked to read ten books during the summer. If they meet the goal they will be awarded a certificate and a pin.

If you do, you are specially invited to attend the annual picnic of the Mason County Historical Society at the Simpson Park on the southwest end of Mason Lake on July 10. "The story of this early settlement on the lake has been more or less forgotten," reports Leo Livingston, Belfair, society president. "We have nothing in our files about it, although we have been asked questions about Little Hoquiam many times." Other history buffs throughout the county are also welcome to join the picnickers, Livingston said. The group now has 155 members throughout the county. The society members plan an old-fashioned potluck picnic with traditional hot dishes, salads, cakes and pies. Lou Donnell is picnic coordinator. Warming ovens are available at the park. The picnic will be in the main kitchen. Dining starts around 6 p.m., followed by an informal historical program afterward. III • This young man sends us a lot of customers.

However, hikers will not be affected because the park will install temporary footlogs for the duration of construction. The following bridges are to be built this summer: Lost River (12.5 miles up Elwha River trail), Glacier Creek (14 miles up North Fork Quinault trail, 2 miles below Low Divide), Eight Stream (6 miles up North Fork Skokomish trail), Bogachiel (12.5 miles from park boundary on Bogachiel River trail), Skokomish (5.9 miles up North Fork Skokomish trail), Lillian River (4.7 miles up Elwha River trail), and Dose Forks (1.5 miles up Dosewallips River trail). Construction began on the Lost River and Glacier Creek bridges on July 1 and will continue about 30 days. Glacier Creek will have no closures to either foot or horse travel. A footlog will be provided at Lost Creek, but the development of a temporary horse ford will depend on stream conditions. Work on Eight Stream and Bogaehiel bridges is scheduled for August and both crossings will probably be impassable to horses. The Skokomish, Dose Forks and Lillian River bridges are tentatively scheduled for September, with horse crossings likely only at Lillian River. Visitors planning stock trips into these areas of the Olympic back country are urged to contact the park ranger station nearest their point of entry or to call park headquarters (206) 452-9238 for current information on bridge status. • • • • e Next week we start on the building project that will add 2 new drive-in kiosks. Things will be torn up for awhile but the temporary drive-in window will be clearly marked for your convenience. SEATTLE'FIFL.qT NATIONAL BAN.
