There are thousands of women who have taken advantage of this opportunity and they have come from every walk of life. There is the mother who found she could do one more job for her country while her mother and mother-in- law took care of the children. There is the wife who gave strength to her husband overseas in this way. College students by the hundreds are putting their spare time to work as Nurses Aides. Refugees have become Aides because they have person- nally seen the futility of working without enough assistants in hos- pitals. Stenographers and de— fense workers haVe added those extra hours of work to their al- ready heavy programs in order to reserve the health of the people who are left on the home front. It is hoped that a large num- ber of Shelton women will respond to the plea for Volunteer Nurses Aides and sign up for the course that will begin in October under the instruction of a qualified train- ed nurse. Mrs. Lous VanArsdale, 282WX is chairman of the course and is being assisted by Mrs. Ri- chard Kieburtz 160.] and Mrs. Winston Scott 544.1. Information may be'obtained from them or from Red Cross headquarters. BAPTIST CHURCH Our church welcomes you. Bible school begins at 9:45 a. m. We have classes for all ages.

All members are urged to be present Wednesday evening as a, new meeting place must be chos- en. Any mother with a son in one of the Navy’s many branches of service is invited to attend the club meetings. Returns Home Miss Agnes Wright returned home last week after an extend- ed visit in Los Angeles with her sister, Pfc. and Mrs. Brecht. Miss Edith Wright, who accompanied her sister to Los Angeles, stayed for a longer visit. Marilyn Anderson Has Dinner Guests Miss Marilyn Anderson, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. S. B. Ander- son had Miss Jane Aldrich and Miss Patty Chase for her dinner guests Monday evening. The oc- casion being Miss Anderson‘s 14th birthday anniversary. Friendship Club Holds Meeting The Friendship Club met with Mrs. George Eads on Wednesday with 14 members and two guests present for the dessert luncheon. The birthday of Mrs. Wilma Sae- ger was observed with a cake. and gift. The fall program was started and plans made for a white ele- phant sale and tea to be held at the Community Hall on Septem- ber 22. Missionary Circle Starts Fall Program The Women‘s Missionary Circle of the Baptist Church met for a dessert luncheon and business meeting at the home of Mrs. Lew- is Wiley on Wednesday to make plans for their fall program and work. The Circle will meet just once a month on the fourth Wednes- day, the first Wednesday of the month will be designated as their Red Cross day. Plans for having a Christian Center for service men was discussed. Lt. Lillian Walton Visits Parents Lieutenant Lillian Walton, Ar- y Nurse’s Corps, spent several days the first of the week with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Char- les Walton, prior to her transfer from Walla Walla, Where she was stationed. Lt. Walton and her brother Charles Walton, R.T. 2/c now sta- tioned at Corpus Christi, both at- tended Shelton schools for sev- eral years. DRUGGISTS CONTRIBUTE With the compliments of the nation’s druggists, more than 11 million five-grain doses of quin- ine are now on their way to join the war against malaria. Because seizure of the Netherlands East Indies cut off 90 per cent of the‘ source of quinine supply, the Ar-, my called upon the nation‘s drug- , gists to make contributions. An appreciable quantity of the quin- ine donated was produced by Ger— many and Japan, and it now will assist in the war to defeat those nations. Memorial , SHELTONeMASON , The Mysterious Land A. . . i It is our own. Actually most of us : know little more of the facts of life tin our timber country than we do i of the Everglades or the New Geor- ' gia jungle. Take, for example, the wee folk ,of our woods; or one family of them, the kangaroo mice. How many *varieties are there? What is their :siZe? How do they look, and how do they leap? This mice mystery is ,a little one, but interesting. On a grander scale, there is the mighty mystery of the struggle of igrowth between the Western hem- lock and the Douglas fir. If you should, for example, drive from Granite Falls, Washington, into the Mt. Baker National Forest. you may note a curious example of this con- flict. A vast mountain slope is main- ly hemlock forest, but there are l small dense islands of fir. These are a darker green. One, in the center of the slope, is a giant in size, and it has the perfect shape of a dia- mond. Seen in the early morning 'sun, the distinct shape and the contrast in green hues are striking. In brighter light the hues blend. What is -the story of that forest Imystery? There are many others of the same kind throughout the Douglas fir region. They illustrate a condition that is vital in the fu- ture of our land. I And there is the mysterious men- lace of the mountain beaver—the “boomer”—to that future. We the people of Oregon and .Washington are kept in ignorance of these things, and so are our children. lLittle attention is given to them in the schools of the two states. I It‘s No Fault of the Teachers . . We have reason to be ashamed of the neglect of forest education in our Schools. With a half-dozen strik- ing exceptions, the neglect has been well—nigh complete. The s c h o o 1 children of Mississippi, Alabama and the Carolinas are far more in- formed on the f o r es t s than ours. Junior forest education in Wash- COUNTY JOURNA’E ington and Oregon has been left to the state forestry departments, the federal government and indus- try. School superintendents and teach- ers everywhere are eager to have study materials. Independently and individually. those of over two hun— dred schools have asked for and re- ceived th e educational booklets, maps and p o s t e r 5 produced by American Forest Products Indus- tries for school use. Their use, however, must. be crowded into the authorized curriculums, which do not provide for forest study as a subject in itself. The three booklets. “America’s Forests,” “Trees for Tomorrow,” and “New Magic In Wood,” are primed with simple facts and fine pictures. Two large maps and five posters, all in color, complete the set. Every boy and‘ girl in the Douglas fir re- gion should have them. If any reader would like a set, a postcard request to “Out of the Woods," care of this newspaper, will bring one free, postpaid and all. Green Guards and Junior Wardens In round numbers, ten thousand boys and girls, mostly aged under 16 and over 10. are in the Green Guards of Oregon, and the Junior Forest Wardens of Washington this year. Their work is prevention of forest fires, and it gives them a very real part in the war effort. They patrol, they keep lookouts, they dis- tribute fire warnings, they clean up fire hazards. It is work that pro- vides them with the first important lesson of Douglas fir forestry—fire control. In September these boys and girls will r e tu r n to school. Certainly their first lesson on forest land use should not then be put aside. There should be means and materials in our school curriculums whereby the forest education of t h e G r e e n Guards and Junior Wardens may be carried on by experts—the teachers of the nation’s t w o g r e a t forest states. Grapeview Card Party Saturday Attention is called to the card party to be held at the school house on Saturday evening, Sep- tember 18. There will be a choice ‘of games, as gin rummy and bridge will be arranged in addi- tion to the usual pinochle. The 1high school group will have their I for each group. The Community Club met on Wednesday evening at the Spoon- ers with Mrs. Cliff Barrett as lhostess. They arranged for the card party and planned to assist lwith hot «lunches which will soon be started at the school, spon- ’sored by the school board. [ The 4—H Clothing Club has met several times recently and they, {as well as the Garden Club, will have an exhibit at the. school on the evening of the 18th. Echo Beach has had many of its occupants out from the cities to enjoy Indian Summer by the water. The A. C.
