30-Foot Cruiser
Launched In Canal [
A beautiful, thirty-foot cabin
cruiser was launched last Satur-[
:day in Hood Canal waters at
Hoodsport by its owner and build- ]
er, Don Brown of Cushman. ]
With a cabin of Mr. Brown's I
Own design, it was started in April
of 1947 as a hobby. It is powered
by a Chrysler Ace motor, galley,
and all necessary furnishings for
pleasure cruises including sleeping
accommodations for six people.
M u c h excitement prevailed
around the lake during the last
two weeks. All the little Browns, :
Sandvigs and Jim Radtke buzzed
around watching the boat's re-
moval from the shop. For sev-
eral days it sat on a cradle back
of Cushman garages with its nose
sticking out of the trees as though
,waiting a chance to board a trail-
er to be moved to the water. Pass-
ersby Jokingly asked if it were
amphibioss.
Camera enthusiasts followed it
down the Cushman road to the
beach at H0odsport In front of i
the Hilligoss home. There it was
deposited on the beach, cradle re-
moved, and Mrs. Don Brown broke
a bottle of champagne over its
bow, christening it the "Folly."
Brown may well be proud of his
workmanship. The boat which is
white with natural hardwood fin-
ish, is trimmed with quarter-sawed
oak of historic value, having been
salvaged from the old Jones build-
ing in Tacoma.

Deth or defeat has greeted

Roasts By Lake
Ry Frances Ra(Itke
Cushman district was the scene
of great activity on the evening
of Jqly fom'th. Around a bonfire
on Standstill lakeside, thirty peo-
ple gathered to enjoy a wienie
roast and a general good time.
Children shot cap pistols and
sparklers. E v e n three-year-old
Darrell Peterson was finally con-
vinced that a sparkler wouldn't
burn him and thereafter was en-
chanted with swinging them
around in the air.
HOT DOGS WERE served on
buns with Gus Pendland's famous
tomato sauce and chopped onions.
Mrs. Pendland and grandson Butch
were on hand, this being their
summer vacation. Mrs. Pend-
land is regularly employed with
t,h telephone company in Tacoma.
Mr. and Mrs. O. K. Linscott
returned Sunday from a ten-day
tour of the Pacific Northwest.
Accompanied by Mr. and Mrs.
A. I,. Etherington of Milton, they
drove 1,800 miles. Mrs. Lins-
cott was a little disappointed in
that she got a chance to visit only
89 relatives and friends.
They touched such points as
Oroville, Wash., Nine-Mile falls
near Spokane, Plummer, Idalm
and Eureka, Montana. On their'
side trip to Glacier National Park
they saw bears standing and lay-
ing down on the highway.
MR. LINSCOTT, like a mail-
man on vacation, visited power'
houses. Those at •Coulee Dam,
Oroville, Nine-Mile falld, Hungry
Horse project near White Fish,
Mont., and the power house at
Thompson Falls, Mont., were all
interesting to this local operator.
Guests of the Don Brown fam-
ily over the week end were Mr.
and Mrs. George Ferris and chil-
dren and Mr. and Mrs. C. W.
Jones. .On Monday afternoon
Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Ferris, t h e
Brown and Ferris children with
Jim Radtke, took a short trip
to Big Fails for an overnight
camping party. This being the
first outing for. most of them,
they were intrigued with sleeping
bags and outdoor cooking equip-
ment. Fish poles were added to
their paraphernalia, and Penny
Brown wondered if there was a
place to wash her teeth.
Mrs. Frances Radtke enter-
tained twenty members of the
Hood Canal garden club in her
home Thursday. Mr. Radtke, who
is working nights, was moved
from his usual sleeping quarters
to an adjoining room whil his
blackout curtains were used to
exch|de light for the showing of
colored slides to the guests. With
twenty women in the house en-
gaged in hmchmaking as well as
other activities, he slept through
:it all.

1. Even before you €oil, you can start getting
the most for your money. It's a good idea to
make a list of the things you want to talk
about. A few hand)' notes can help make sure
youwon't think of somethingyou really wanted
to say-afteiyou hang up. Experienced hmg dis-
tance users keep paper and pencil at the tele-
p honeand maknoteswhiletliey'retalki.ng,too.

2. When you place your call, you can save
time all around if you give the intbrmation to
your long distance operator this way: First, the
name of town you're calling...then, the number
if you know it, or the address. (Good idea to
keep a list of the out-of-town numbers you call
most frequently.) Next, if it s a person call, givc
the name of the one you want to talk with.The
operator will then ask your name and number.
4. Wise use of the telephorie--either local
or long distancehelps you get the greatest
value from it. And service is constantly grow-
ing more valuable. A local call is still lust a few
pennies. And you can make a daytime station
call from coast to coast for only $2.50, plus tax.
3. When you complete your call, be sure to
hang up promptl)--anc! properly. If you re-
member to use these pointers every time you
call long distance, yoti'll be certain of getting
the most from your call for the least money.
With really efficient use of the telcph6nc: you
can pack as many words into a three-minute
conversation as you can in a letter--and you'll
get an answer to your questions right away.
