Both developments are on the South end of Harstine. Island Estates is nine miles from the ferry landing, and Island Shores seven miles south. Activity in Island Estates start- ed about four years ago when Harry Craft of Seattle and the Zabel brothers of Olympia pur- chased Briscoe Point and the Hole in Wall area, from Dr. Binyon of Seattle. Fifty lots have been sold and about 12 remain, in addition to several view lots with beach privileges. Alvin Anderson of. Harstine and Pickering developed his land into Island Shores, with three divisions, shortly after the Island Estates was started. He had 42 lots of varying sizes surveyed and has sold 28. Both properties are beau- tiful and have fine beaches and views of Mr. Rainier and the active main waterway. During all this activity we won- dered' who o'ur new islanders might be, as we saw them arriving Fri- day ,and Saturday, bright-eyed, anticipating a great weekend in the out-of-doors, away from the city, cars loaded to the gills. Go- ing back to the punch-clock jobs~ in the cities late Sundays, with empty cars and that healthy, tired out look, after a weekend of work and play on their land. At last, on Labor Day, had time to make the trip to Island Estates. Going down the road, met Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Forey and their guests from Seattle, who were starting out on a tour of Harstine by car. Mr. Forey, a cable splicer for Se- attle City Light, heard about Har- stine properties from Purdy Re. alty. The family were among the first in Island Estates. Visited in the Forey home, one of the larger houses in the area. Daughter Car- olyn was there with her friends ]Linda Wandesforde and Lynne Gerring of Seattle. Carolyn just graduated in June from West Se- attle High School and will attend college in Bellingham this year. The girls were mmh nice hostesses and we became such friends in a short time th.a.t they returned our call the same afternoon to go bur- ro tqding. Finally Harry Craft returned to his office where he told us about other home owners in his colony. The houses are very attractive, modern architecture, designed mostly by Stacy Bennett of Olym- pia. In the hopes of keeping this decor, anyone buying a lot may trove free, a house plan. The fol- lowing families from Olympia are homeowners: G. R. Stevens, Jasper Denny, Joe Beauchenen, (Mgr.

FROM SEATTLE in Island Es- tates distinguished summer resi- dents are the Ray Shepherds. Mr. Shepherd is ~ Boeing Executive Engineer. Their home is most in- teresting. Martyn Goetsch and Harry Craft did some of the pre- liminary work on the house. Mr. Shepherd and his family are com- pleting it. The fireplaces are un- usual, built of Arizona sandstone and driftwod stone from the des- erts. Other Boeing and Seattle people ,are the Jefferson Van Courts. On the west side of Har- stine and in Isldnd Estates from Seattle are the Ralph Perkins fam- ily and Ruben Cohens. Larry Jer- rells built the Cohen house last spring. We are anxious to meet all these people, but particularly Mrs. Har- riet PetePson of Seattle. She spent the entire summer here with her children. She did lots of fishing, casting £rom the shore. One day recently caught a 12-inch silver salmon using piece of hot dog for bait! Craft said that Mrs. Peter- son never went to town, had shopping done for her, did her washing at home carrying the water from the well, etc. Bert Myhres, director of Curric- ulum in Tacoma Schools, has a home in Island Estates, as do the Larry Walshes and Mike Grubisas. Frank Westwood of Spanaway and hwing Harveys of Parkland, Rex Davis of Aberdeen. Several lots have been sold to California peo- ple. The Bacons of Petaluma are the only ones we have met so far. As soon as the PUD brings the power in, promised for next spring, many land-owners, plan ,to build houses. All the families mentioned h,ave children, so it is a busy place around the "Hole in Wall" in sum- mer. Many owners do not come just in summer, bUt weekends and holidays the year around. Seven houses• have been built in Island Shores. One of the largest and most interesting is the home of Mr. F. Aufforth of: Boelngs in Seattle, located next to the Elwood Braggetts of Tacoma. Mr. Brag- gett has an auto parts store, but m.anages to be on Harstine every weekend the year around. James Wilson of Kent, and the Richard Otteles of Bremerton, rarely miss a weekend in their Island Shores homes. Mr. Ottele is a teacher and coach in Brcmerton schools. Two other Tacoma families who have summer houses are the Jack Kin- raids. He has Necoh Sewing Me: chine ,agency and Joe Selm with the Veterans Hospital at Ameri- can Lake. The Ike Carlsons, fmzn- erly of Harstine and now living in Alameda, Calif., just left after a vacation here. George WaSte Jr. of Harstine owns a cabin in Island ShoreS. A few weeks ago we told about the Rev. Robert Kel- ler of OlYmpla~ who cQme~ to their land with a trailer. Wouldn't i it be great if the Harstine Island !Social Club wOuld go really Social and invite these new Islanders to a" potluck next suinmer~ Now you know why the ferry .shuttles back mid forth all the time on week- ends, with all these new families and their friends.

The Johnsons were attendants at Al- vin's and Pegg's wedding. The rel- atives gathered in Peggy's fath- er's home, Mr. Walter Scott of Belfair for a 6 p.m. dinner. Mrs. Gene Seward has been very ill with a severe ease of flu. Glad to hear she is improving, but still feels weak. ELEVEN MEMBERS attended the Social Club meeting last Fri- day night in the community hall. Mrs. John Hitchcock and Mrs. James Lohrer were hostesses.

Here are some extra highlights. Dot Smith, proud grandmother of the bride, looking very smart in a dress of autumn colors with hat to match. Many Islanders attended the service and reception. Coming into the church we were met by Cheryl Meeks seated at a table with the guest book. She was second only to the bride and her maids, in her love- ly pastel blue lace dress with matching chiffon scarf. To accen- tuate the picture, on the table by her was a bowl of fresh white sweet peas and white roses tinted blue. Poor bride and groom! When we left the church, saw the get away WaSte Jr. was in charge of the sadistic and collosal job done on that car! Interior was packed with crumpled up newspapers, and hub caps full of rocks. You know what was written all over the car? "Just married!" Tied behind the biggest bunch of cans we ever saw! Wish we could have stayed to the bitter endl Here the cou- ple left in a shower of rice, the bride looking lovely in a grey and coral knit suit! Brian Burch was on the Island last wekend just retraced from training with the Peace Corp in Annapolis, Md. Due to war condi- tions in India, he is not sure when he will go on to his post there. The first meeting of the Har.. stine Grange will be held in tho Community Hall at 6:15 p.m. It car! It appeared George will be a potluck supper.

Cota 426-4302 TomolTow night, September 17, in Olympia, Simpson Timber Com- pany will honor 45 veteran employees attheNinth Annual Simpson Quarter Century Award Banquet. Foremost among the honored guests will be the 25 men pictured below. This year marks their 25th year of service to Simpson. The careers of these old timers span the most exciting Quarter Cen- tury in Simpson's 75 years of life. During the last two and a half dec- ades Simpson and the communities of the Shelton Working Circle have enjoyed a remarkable increase in the standard of living. Paced by the establishment of the Shelton Cooperative Sustaind Yield Unit in 1946, there have been tremendous advances in forest nlanagement, utiliza- tion of raw materials, in employment and in payrolls. The reason for this progress is people--men like these who have served with loyalty and integrity to help build a progressive Simpson • and stronger communities. We take this opportunity to tell you--their friends and neighbors--- how proud we are of them. Herman Arnott Otto C.
