HARSTINE -- Everyone who
lives on Harstine, and many long-
time summer people, have been
interested in and curious about the
developments at what used to be
called "The Hole in the Wall"
now called Island Estates, also in
Island Shores. 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

sons and Lester Johnson. Mr.
Johnson was born on Harstine,
now lives in Olympia and works

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

can read about the lovely wed-
ding of Kathleen Archer and Rich-
ard Matthews, which took place
in Shelton's First Christian church
Sept. 11. 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.

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.
