MATLOCK -- The Mary M. Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Clarke Sam Valley oldest son 'of Mr. of Montesano were Sunday dinner
Martin and Gyneth belong to,
sponsored a picnic and open
house. Everyone enjoyed seeing
the couple's lovely new home on
Philip's Lake, Martin has done a
good share of the building
himself. The property is located
next to the public fishing access,
which adjoins their lot.
The weather kept threatening
rain soon after the Grangers
gathered at the Auseth home. The
sun even played hide and seek
with the clouds while everyone
filled their plates with all kinds of
picnic morsels and as they sat
down to eat the goodies. Later in
the afternoon when a fire had
been started in the barbecue pit
and coffee and toasted
marshmallows were being offered,
a sudden hard rain squall sent the
visitors scurrying inside to have
ice cream and coffee instead,
along with lots of companionable
chatting.
The weather didn't dampen the
spirits of the younger generation
as they continued to swim and
fish in the liquid sunshine.
Lloyd and Ruth Goodwin
spent a little over three weeks
exploring the British Columbia
coastline this summer for a very
delightful vacation before they
had to think about settling back
into the work day routine as the
Fall school term draws near.
With their boat, serving as the
transportation and accompanied
by their close friends, the Bill
Mallows and Howard Yules
the beautiful arm of water. This
bit of exploring in this area
encompassed several days and
there were so many different
fingers to investigate.
From Edgemont Cove where
they refueled they traveled on up
to Ramsy arms. Ruth says the
scenery up there is just
spectacular. They say its a lot
different in the Canadian Gulf
Islands than here in our own San
Juan Islands. A good many of the
Island's shorelines rise straight out
of the water to tremendously high
sheer cliffs. And the channels are
so narrow that as one looks ahead
there's seemingly no place to go
just a few yards ahead. But as
they cruise a bit further a narrow
path of water opens to admit
their boats and then gradually
closes in behind and encloses
them.
They had planned to 'go on up
to Loughborough Inlet. But a
Longshoreman's strike made it
uncertain as to whether they
would be able to get more fuel for
their boats in that area. So they
decided to wait for a day or so
and see if it might end so they
could go ahead with their plans.
The men enjoyed a trip back to
an old miners camp in the area
while they were waiting• The
women enjoyed beachcombing
and stretching their legs that way.
They finally gave up going any
further north and headed back to
Lurid to refuel. From there they
went on to Hernando Island and
new fall term. As the
consolidation with Pioneer hasn't
yet been completed, the Island
bus will be running the same as
last year, at least for a time. Since
Alice Budd is still recuperating
from an arm which was broken
last June, substitute driver, Lila
Peugh will begin the year in her
place.
Steig and Beula Gabrielsen
recently had as their house guests,
her folks, the G. B. Andersons of
Tacoma, for a few days. A
pioneer of Bainbridge Island,
Anderson was a veteran tug boat
operator for a good many years.
tie was piloting tugs way back in
the gold rush and made many,
many trips up to Alaska in that
era.
While the Andersons were here
Beula took them to Shelton to
show them the town. Her father
had visited the town a good many
times, but he knew it only as a
port when he came by tug boat.
After enjoying the various
verities of seafood, including
freshly caught trout for breakfast
during their stay, Gabrielsens
took the visitors home by boat.
We understand a certain young
lady from California celebrated
her 14th birthday on Pt. Wilson
the middle of this month. But
then that really isn't anything out
of the ordinary for this Calif. girl.
For Joan Wheelis, daughter of lisa
and Allen Wheelis, has celebrated
each and everyone of her
birthdays here on the Island at
Knight high school and
elementary school will open Sept.
2. School will start at the regular
8:50 a.m. time. Buses will travel
the same routes at approximately
the same time.
Hot lunch will be served the
first day at the same price as last
year 25 cents for students and
30 cents for adults, additional
milk will cost five cents per
carton. All new students including
first grade students wilt be
registered on the first day of
school.

Reid and Edna Mitchell spent
the week here on the Island to
work on their new home.
Although they worked hard they
enjoyed the week as they made
quite a bit of progress which is
always encouraging to anyone
building a new home.
School bells will be ringing
next week heralding the start of a
this week where they plan to
make a new home, near the Yates'
oldest son, Harley and his family.
But the going away dinner was
eaten without the honored guests,
as they called to say they had
been delayed for two or three
hours. So the Stun Yates, Luther
Freshours, and Glenn Yates
families plus the Dwyer
youngsters enjoyed the delicious
dinner without Bonnie and
Warren.
