"Before I retired from
Simpson Timber Company 16
months ago," declares Archie
Vaughn, "1 worked eight hours a
day. Now 1 never have any spare
time !"
He's not complaining. When
he isn't gardening, he's dancing;
or fishing.
Archie Vaughn and his wife,
Leona, are very active members of
the S',dty Sashayers, Shelton's
square dancing club, and the
Christmastown Rounders, the
local round-dancing group. They
served last year as
president-couple of the
Christmastown Rounders, and
have held office as vice-presidents
and as secretary-treasurers of the
Salty Sashayers.
Vaughn enrolled in club
dancing lessons in 1961 and has
since participated in club dances
throughout the state. He is also a
member of the Skokomish Valley
Grange where he performs with
the drill team. In past years he has
held several grange offices.
A native of Washington,
Archie Vaughn has lived in Mason
County since 1912. He was
employed first as a logger and
later in Simpson's Insulating
Board Plant for a total of 42
years.
His first garden was grown
during the depression and
flourished in the fertile
Skokomish Valley soils, lle has
gardened ever since, and always
by more-or-less organic methods.
In the 1950's he read of a
Thurston County man who
gardened in a garbage heap Io win
prizes at the county fair. From
that day on, all kitchen refuse and
lawn clippings were worked into
his garden.
When the Shelton Organic
Garden Club was organized this
spring, Archie Vaughn was an
enthusiastic charter member.
"It is a real challenge," he
explains, "to grow good planls
without the use of poisons.
"The ~cret," he continues,
"is to maintain the garden in a
clean amd healthful manner in
order that the plants may be
strongly resistant to disease and

gardening. Marigolds among the
vegetables will repel many insects.
He has learned that the juice of
the despised tansy will discourage
flies. Compost heaps yield natural
fertilizers and soil-builders.
A strawberry bed heavily
mulched with sawdust yielded a
bumper crop.
"1 prefer to use alder," he
says, "because it is the quickest to

ARCHIE VAUGHN guarantees that the Jerusalem artichoke
plants in the background will be higher than his head by late
summer. Pumpkin vines fill the foreground.
decay. Because sawdust takes
nitrogen from the sol; as it
decomposes, nitrogen should be
added"
Although Archie is technically
the family vegetable gardener, he
freely admits that he accepts the
help of his wife.
"Before I retired," he
remarks, "she did a lot of the
vegetable gardening. But now the
flowers are her department, and 1
stick to the vegetables7'
A white Charlais cow and
heifer are Archie's pride and joy,
and he has a persistent yen to
own a horse.
Come fall, he intends to add
wine-making to the growing list of
his accomplishments.
"1 used to make beer when I
was in Camp III," he reminisces,
"but I had to give it up. I had too
many visitors."
Fruit trees and berry bushes
thrive on the Vaughn acreage, and
in addition to the usual garden
vegetables, Archie is this year
growing two which are new to
him - Jeruselum artichokes and
asparagus.
His beautifully-tended garden
testifies to his diligence.
"Sometimes it suffers," he
admits, "when I unearth too
many angle worms!"
"When I find too many angle-worms,"
"1 neglect the garden and go fishing."

Sandwiches, salad and homemade
pie will be on sale during the
show.
Hours for the show and sale
are from noon until 9 p.m. on
Thursday, August 2, the opening
day; and from 10 a.m. until 6
p.m. on August 3. Admission is
by ticket, available in advance or
at the door. Tickets are good for
unlimited visits throughout the
show.
Begun in 1971, the event
follows the pattern of similar
shows which are popular
throughout the country. Antiques
shows provide a good opportunity
for collectors and devotees of
antiques to encounter a wide
range of reputable, dealers without
covering hundreds of miles.
Beginners in the antiques pursuit
have a chance to compare prices,
broaden their familiarity with
types and periods of antiques, and
ask questions which dealers are
always happy to answer.
Dealers, too, seek to be
included in shows to meet a new
group of potential customers and
establish their reputations. Some
dealers whose shops are in
out-of-the-way places do most of
their business at shows and may
travel thousands of miles to 20 or
more shows a year.

Cosmetics
for YOU
Caring for Oily Skin
My skin is very oily and
always looks shiny. I also tend
to get blackheads. What is the
best way to care for my skin,
and what kind of makeup
should I use?
A. It is especially
important for someone with
your type of skin to remove all
traces of makeup and dirt
before bedtime. Lotions and
creams made especially for this
purpose will do the job more
effectively than will ordinary
soap and water. Application of
a masque at least once a week
is also effective in helping to
prevent blackheads.
Before applying makeup,
pat on astringent to remove
any traces of oil on Your skin.
Then apply a waterbased --
rather than an oilbased --
makeup. For touch-ups during
the day, use pressed Powder
that is especially formulated to
"blot away" oils on the skin.
Makeup for Oily Skin
My skin is rather oily. What
type of makeup should I use?
A. Cake makeup -- the
type that is applied with a
damp sponge -- is best for oily
skin because it dries almost
instantly and tends to soak up
excess oils from the skin.
This type of makeup covers
up blemishes and usually needs
to be applied only once a day.
If oils break through around
the nose or chin, the makeup
can be reapplied to these areas
without re-doing the entire
face. Face powder applied over
this foundation will also help
to control oiliness.
