KWG Girl, Smokey
Visit Girl Scouts
Smokey and 1 spent an
extremely busy and interesting
time this past week. For the first
time we visited Girl Scout camps
(Smokey, in particular, found this
very fascinating!). The camps we
stopped at were Camp Kennydell
on Black Lake and Camp St.
Albans in Belfair. Smokey and I
received very warm welcomes and
the usual exclamations of joy for
seeing the "real, live Smokey the
Bear." It didn't take long for us
to pass out the song sheets and
soon the whole camp grounds
were echoing with bars of
Smokey's theme song. Each girl
received a story of Smokey with
colored pictures of his exciting
adventure as a cub. Maybe you
would like to hear the story.
The setting for Smokey's story
was Lincoln National Forest, New
Mexico, in the year 1950.
Smokey was busily occupying
himself in his beautiful and green
forest home - doing the things
that cubs do, like getting into
mischief and keeping his mother
busy. He didn't know it, but this
was the day that would
completely change his entire life.
This was the day that some
camper decided to be careless. A
small fire broke out and quickly
Smokey's home was filled with
smgke. It was not long before the
small sparks of flame grew into a
raging forest fire. As the forest
animals fled with fear, men from
al| over the state were called in to
help fight the fire. One particular
group of men were working on
holding back the fire, when the
wind suddenly changed and
spread the fire toward them.
Luckily, there were some large
rocks which they hid under until
the fire passed. When the men
looked up, they saw through the
grayish haze, a small bear clinging
to a burnt stump of a tree.
Feeling sorry for the frightened
and burned bear, who had been
left behind in the panic, the men
took him to their ranger station.
Here they nursed the little cub
back to health. Someone seeing
all the bear's scars from the burns
decided on the name Smokey,
which I must agree, was quite
suitable. This remarkable little
bear is still living today in his own
home in Washington, D.C. Each
year thousands of people come to
see our friend Smokey.
Smokey has become a national
and worldwide symbol for the
prevention of forest fires. Smokey
posters, stickers, and signs are a
common sight today. He even has
his own campaign to make our
forests safe from fire. We all have
a chance to vote for Smokey by
taking positive action forward in
our everyday practices of fire
prevention.
The Girl Scouts had a splendid
opportunity to join Smokey's
ranks by joining the Keep
Washington Green Guard. To be
eligible for the Green Guard you
must be willing to pledge your
full cooperation for the Keep
Washington Green cause. You also
must be from the ages of eight to
16. It costs nothing to join and
the only oblilgation of the
participant is willingness to serve.
If anyone "is interested in joining
the Green Guards, please write to
me, Janice Wittenberg at - 307
W. Seattle Street, Shelton, Wash.
and 1 will send you a Green Guard
membership card, manual, and
badge. I sincerely hope that the
boys and girls of our community
will be interested enough to join
the ranks of our state's Green
Guards.
scheduled to appear at 3 p.m. Saturday at
the Fairgrounds.

exemption continues when

voluntarily exchanged for
restricted allotted land of similar
value if such exchange is
authorized by the Secretary of
Interior.
The exemption also ordinarily
applies when restricted allotted
land is acquired by Deed Form
5-183b, where Indians who are
regarded as unable to handle their
own affairs make transfers or
allotments within their families,
or where restricted funds are used
to purchase small amounts of land
for needy Indians.
However, if tax exempt income
is reinvested to produce
additional income, such
additional income is taxable. To
be exempt, income must come
directly from or be attributable to
use oi the allotted land. Income
from a trust allotment rented
from another Indian is taxable.
Once an Indian has received a
fee title to the land, income from
the land is no longer exempt.
Tribal income not otherwise
exempt from Federal income tax
is taxable to an Indian tribe
member when it is distributed to
him or constructively received by
him.
Amounts paid to tribal council
members or officers for services
performed by them as council
members are taxable and must be
reported on their income tax
returns, although these payments

Income that a member of an
Indian tribe receives from
unallotted Indian tribal lands is
taxable, unless there is a treaty or
a law that plainly exempts such
income.
The law exempts from income
tax any payments made from
funds provided under Title II-A of
the Economic Opportunity Act of
1964 and the Manpower
Development and Training Act of
1962 to unemployed and
underemployed residents of
Indian reservations who

The seller should report the

After holding an abandoned

operator may begin the process Of
notifying the vehicle owners and,
if the vehicle is unclaimed,
arranging to sell the vehicle at
public auction. If the sale
proceeds do not cover the towing
and storage costs, the registered
owner of the vehicle would be
liable for the difference, up to
$100.
The new law also authorizes
cities or counties to pass local
ordinances which would further
simplify the procedure for
disposing of abandoned, wrecked
or dismantled vehicles. For
instance, a local ordinance could
be enacted authorizing the sheriff
to declare an abandoned vehicle a
public nuisance and dispose of it
without notice of sale, provided
the vehicle was at least 10 years
old.
"THE HITCHHIKERS," a local musical
group, recently placed third in the state in a
band competition. They started playing in
the eliminations three months ago and
played in a Teen Spectacular in Seattle
where they placed in the top four. Last
weekend, they played in Seattle again to
determine the winner of the Teen
Spectacular and the group took third place.
More than 300 bands started the
competition. The boys started playing
together two years ago and have played in
Shelton, Aberdeen and Tacoma. They are,
