WILCOX TALKS TO
I KIWANIS MEMBERS
] The whys and wherefores of a
]hand of government servants ......
I10,000 of them--waS explained to
]members of the Shelton Kiwanis
club at their regular weekly lunch-
eon meeting Tuesday. Jack Wil-
cox, special agent in charge of the
Seattle Federal Bureau of Identifi-
cation was guest speaker of the
club, and he took his listeners
through what the average agent
gets when he starts the bureau's
training.
Mr. Wilcox, a veteran of th
service, recited examples of thq
bureau's laboratory efficiency in
checking down clues, explained
how agents were enlisted and
the training they undergo before
they become members of the
greatest crime detection organiz-
ation in the country.
Mr. Wilcox was introduced by'
Glenn Cortes who served as pro-
gram chairman of the day.
Kreidler Hearing
(Continued from Page 1)
ted by Kreidler for extra work at
the school, Crossen said that he
objected but that he was acting
as an "instrumentality of t h e
school board."
Crossen also said that he knew
nothing about th0 finances of
the school during the years of
1946-7 and 1947-8, and that he
had not talked to the state ex-
antiner about the extra-jobs
vouchers he signed for Kreidler.
After Crossen had testified, sev-
eral other witnesses were brought
in. Walter Johnson, salesman, Bel-
fair principal in 1945-6 revealed
that the school since 1945 had
used aspirin and sulpha for treat-
ment of minor injuries of the
pupils and that the school board
knew of the medical assistance
and didn't object.
"MY EXPERIENCE shows that
most parents do not know how tel
give proper treatment for which
the medicines at the school were
used," Johnson insisted, adding,
"Belfair is a long way from a
doctor."
At five o'clock in the afternoon
the session was adjourned by Bill
Goodpaster, presiding o f f ice r,
county superintendent of schools.
Charles Lewis said that he had a
couple more witnesses whom he
would introduce later.

... You Can Help The
Fire Warden
These bright and sunny days make the
vacation season enjoyable for everybody ex-
cept the fire warden. He is aware of the
forest fire dangers present whenever the
temperature and humidity become critical.
0 Every summer we have calls from inter-
ested persons who want to know what they
should do to report a fire. We tell them this:
The quickest way to get action on a for-
est fire is to call the state fire warden in
your district. Make sure you know which
road is nearest to the fire. In Mason Coun-
ty, phone Shelton 149 and in Grays Harbor
County phone Montesano 61. The U. S. For-
est Service office in Shelton may be called
at 617. Telephone operators are alert to fire
calls and will assist you in making a quick
connection with fire prevention authorities.
DON'T TAKE IT FOR GRANTED
SOMEONE ELSE HAS REPORTED THE
FIRE. YOURS MAY BE THE FIRST CALL
TO REACH THE FIRE WARDEN.

who had saved her allowance fox"
two weeks and earned some be-
sides, in order to be able to at-
tend the show. At first it looked
like the County was going to get
a treat for an unusually fair price.
Merchants gave out coupons to
customers, stating that with the
coupon and 40¢ a child under 12
could see the Circus and an adult
could get ia for 75¢. Of course
everyone realized the side shows
and peanuts would be extra, but
they did not expect the extent
of the extras! First one was in-
vited to view a "Free Animal
Menagerie." Everyone went for
that. It turned out to be a few
caged furry animals such as foxes,
porcupines and de-odorized skunks,
plus some squawking birds. One
had to pay to get out, 25¢ was
the price, and several of the young
did not have the sum, so they
received an obscene blast froIn
the exit keeper.
O
"The side show manager m|ght
have been one of the "Gyp Bros."
He was a suave well-groomed mid-
dle aged man. clever at barking!
One had to let the kids see that
side show or they were the mean-
est parents on earth. Well, the
kids came out of the show with
frowns of bewilderment on their
faces. Those who had the cash,
had been hornswaggled into buy-
ing the most wonderful potato
peelers in the world, orange juice
squeezers, etc. A wonderful pres-
ent for Morn and Pop who had,
in several cases been good enough
to provide a day at the Circus.
The barkers said, "These items
are worth $1.00 but we are selling
them for only 50¢. Finally the
big moment came, our barker in-
vited us to enter the big top, and
view the most wonderful show on
earth. Our coupons plus the
amounts mentioned, gave us a
ticket and let us into the canvas
curtained entrance on the big top,
but there--alas! The most so-
phisticated hard-boiled, be-slacked
late thirtieth female, elevated on
a platform with a pulpit-like desk:
to lean on, was announcing in
a harsh voice that reserved seats'i
were thirty cents and all seats l
were reserved! That was the pay-
off fox" us, that by this time had
only ten cents lefts fox' peanuts,
so a lot of us slipped by, but
most paid.
The seats under the top were
all the same, they were boards
on horses, l-etty soon it started
to rain and most people got
soaked, but the crowd held to-
gether by promises of big acts
to come, and the sale of a new
i brand of candy, "A prize in every
package, s u c h a s cameras,
watches and jewelry." Mothers
who had accompanied their young
were saying, "You will be a
sucker, if you go for that son."
"What's sucker Morn?" Morn ex-
plained. It would seem that the
only good thing about the re-
cent show, "Gyp Bros." was that
a lot of kids in Mason County
learned what it is to be a sucker!
It seems to me that Mason County
authorities who give permision
for such entertainment to come
here, should do a better job of
investigating the character of the
entertainment.

won't return to England until Aug-

reservations until that time.
WESLEY HARRISON, a real
estate agent in the town of Luton,
30 miles north of London, hasn't
seen his brother Alfred for 43
years. This is the first time that
either he or Mrs. Harrison have
ever been in America.
One of the things which Mr,
Harrison likes best about Shelton
and the rest of the country is its
private enterprise system as it
contrasts to England's socialism.
"Socialism is holding back Eng-
land's recovery from the war so
much that other countries appear
to be getting ahead," he declared.
"Whatever you Americans do,
don't copy England by incorporat-
ing socialism."
