Knight School Starts Sept. 2 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. Red Cross Tells Of Disaster William B.
