Hoodsport
Canal Fishing Is Reported Good
By DONA O'NEIL
HOODSPORT - Fishing in the
area, judging from most of the
reports, has been pretty good this
summer. Mrs. Jim Thurman
reports that over 200 perch were
caught off the dock just last
weekend and her husband along
with Cecil McLain landed a five
and a six pound sahnon off tim
dock using only squid for bait.
NOT BIG NEWS BUT
SLIGHTLY COMICAL
Mr. and Mrs. Nell Simmons Jr.
have had in their possession, for
quite some time now, a varying
number of rabbits. And at one
time or another it seems that the
gender of these animals is the
only confusing factor.
Well by now, being experienced
rabbit owners, the Simmon's a,e
authorities on this subject in
regard to their animals. To make
it short, they know which is
which.
Other supposed authorities
were Mr. and Mrs. Richard
Andrews of Shelton. They are
also in the rabbit hobby. With the
hopes of propagating more little
bunnies they came to the
Simmon's home one evening to
borrow a father for their mother.
No one was home but the rabbits.
After serious deliberation and a
long wait, the match-makers
decided to help themselves and
take their borrowed father rabbit
home. Well, the relationship
between the Andrews rabbits and
was not quite all that had been
the stranger was not quite all that
had been anticipated.
And it is a small wonder, for
the borrowed rabbit was in fact
not a. father, but a very pregnant
mother and if it had not been for
a telephone call from the
Simmon's family, the Andrews
would have had a batch of little
bunnies a lot faster than they
would have ever imagined
possible, according to their
previous plans.
FAMILY REUNION
Every few years Mr. and Mrs.
Robert Fleshman of Star Route 1
just outside of Minerva Park have
a good old fashioned family
reunion. This time Mrs.
Fleshman's aunt and uncle, Mr.
and Mrs. (;ale Forst of Sheraton,
Iowa, came with their daughter
and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs.
Richard Davis, and Mr. l)avis's
father. That's five guests from
Iowa.
Then there was Mrs.
Fleshman's father, Arlie
Courtney, from Milton Freewater,
Oregon. Add to this her sister and
husband with family, Mr. and
Mrs. Roy Towne from Tacoma.
To make a long story short
there was also Mr. and Mrs. Jerry
Jacobsen (granddaughter), Mr.
and Mrs. Dave Kangas from
Olympia (granddaughter) and Mr.
and Mrs. Walt Glover front
Bremerton (daughter).
Of course there were the usual
"local yokels" (just an
expression) their sons, Darrell and
l)ale, with their families. There
were nine kids on the farm that
day thai had great fun climbing
trees, flying to the moon,
snitching apples and munching on
old Tom Turkey's drumsticks.
l:.veryone is gone now so the
Fleshmans will most likely spend
the next week recuperating. It is,
t'rom one point of view, a very
good thing that these occasions
only happen every few years.
LIGHTHOUSE MOTEL
Being at typical nosey reporter
made it necessary to phone the
Lighthouse Motel to inquire
about the big cement trucks that
were pouring cement there last
week. The logical explanation for
that was the new cement
bulkhead being laid in front of
the motel.
In the process of the
conversation a little more news
popped out. Mr. and Mrs. Oscar
Yate's son, James Yates, who is a
Sergeant in the Air Cops spent
one day late in June with his
family here in ltoodsport.
The Sergeant has a wife and
child at their home in Khebnester,
Missouri, but right now he is
stationed in Viet Nam thirty miles
north of Saigon.
WEDDING SHOWER
Twenty good friends were
guests at the home of Mrs. Bill
Goodpaster in honor of Carolyn
SchwaS's coming wedding. Gifts,
games, and refreshments were the
highlights of the evening. Mary
Jane Sund was the winner of the
game prize.
Carolyn is the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Rudy Schwab. She is
engaged to Robert Larsen of
Seattle. Ite will graduate from
Ellensburg in August. They plan
to be marrmd at a small ceremony
for the family, August 16 in the
Hood Canal Community Church.
After the wedding there will be
a reception at the Holiday Beach
Clubhouse. Carolyn is now
employed in Olympia at the State
Library.

Wouldn't you
really rather have
the money?
We are thinking about all those useful but idle arti-
cles stored away in closets, attics, basements and gar-
ages in so many homes. These things have value to
other people even though you never use them. Would-
n't you like to have the money you can get for these
articles you never use ?
Take a quick inventory of the unneeded items in your
household. Then resolve to use a Journal Want Ad to
sell them. The cost is low, the response is fast. And
the money you will get.., wel! maybe you will want
to use it to buy that great new car "you would really
rather have."
It's easy to place your Journal Want Ad. Just dial
426-4412 and ask for an Ad-Visor.
