James family to picnic
Descendants of early Thurston County pioneers, Samuel and Anna
Mafia James, who in 1852 became the first family settlers at Grand
Mound, will attend the annual James Family Association picnic in
Jamestown Grove at Grand Mound on Sunday, August 3. Dedication of

"mini-museum" will be on the picnic program.
DOUG SOULIERE is one of two pottery teachers at
Kamilche School in the Squaxin Island Summer Program.

Emsley applied to be a

Since the office informed her of

Brad Owen, 25-year-old local
businessman, announced his
candidacy for Shelton finance
commissioner Monday, citing the
need for a more active city
government.
Owen, owner of Brad's Quick
Stops on Hillcrest and Mountain
View, outlined the three major
issues on which he is basing his
candidacy: fiscal responsibility,
increased citizen participation in
local government, and developing
a working partnership with the
state and federal governments,
insuring that Shelton receives its
fair share of state and federal tax
dollars.
In addition to those three
issues, Owen said that he is
looking foward to working with
the other city officials on key
issues such as crime and the plight
SSloner
of the senior citizens in the
community.
"I think that the role of
finance commissioner needs to be
expanded. The problems in our
community are such that we need
people to serve on the city
commission who feel that it is
time that we deal with the full
spectrum of problems," said
Owen.
Owen said that he will count
on a large volunteer effort in his
campaign and he hopes to
personally doorbell the entire city
at least once.
Owen and his wife Nancy live
at 918 Ellinor and have three
children. He is president of the
Mason County Young Democrats,
a member of the Mason County
Economic Development Council
and the Shelton Police Reserve.

Emsley said she has tried all
the real estate offices in Shelton,
as well as newspaper listings, but
to no avail. So far, she has
obtained a couch and chair, but
needs other furniture, including
beds, for the four-person family.
The family will be able to pay
rent through public a stance.
Emsley said that after the
family arrives in Shelton, she will
be able to begin job arrangements
for the father; she was not
informed of his qualifications nor
language capabilities.
Anyone wishing to contribute
household items or knowing the
probable whereabouts of a
two-bedroom house to rent may
