TO The Editor

Dear Sit':
Why is this controversy about

Members and friends of the

Frank Fetters, teen-age star of

ALDERBROOK IN:N
DINING
DESIGNED
FOR YOUR
CONVENIENCE
Yason County. We must try to see
the other side of any picture if we
are to be fail' in our decisions, but
while I feel that anyone who puts
up a strongly felt argument on
ay subject thinks that he is right
arid is slncere, usually, I cannot
follow the thinking in this case.
Yes, anyone who lives in Shel-
ton or on the outskirts can go to
her library and does not need the
Bookmobile probably. Mason
County, on the other hand, is a
large and widely spread area.
Probably the majority of its pop-
ulation does not visit Shelton once
a month, leave alone once every
week or two. Is Shelton Christ-
mastown, U.S.A. -- behind this?
If she is it would seem to me no
asset to her name to have this
kind of blot upon it. If those of
you who wish to discontinue the
Bookmobile services would ride
around 'the outer edges of your
county and find out what those
who 'need and appreciate this
service think you ..might change
your opinions, for I am sure that l
you have Just not given it enough
over-all thinking.
Surely, ih this age of speed and
specialized eveTthing, we need to,
know all we are capable of learn-
ing. We haven!t the time to learn
very much as it is. If we would
take advantage of this wonderful
opportunity to fir, d out: almost
anything we wish to know merely
by requesting reading matter on
rangements for the date in coop-
eration with the president, John
Stentz. President Stentz has for
the past year talked about the
wonderful fishing trip o[ last year
until 'about 33 men were willing to
take the day off and enjoy the
trip.
A bus was chartered to take the
men to the fishing grounds leav-
ing Shelton at 5 a.m. last Satur-
day and arriving back at 7 p.m.
weary but happy.
A trophy was awarded Bob Def-
finbaugh for the largest king sal-
mon caught and to Bernie Dorcy
for the largest oliver caught. Both
men received a beautifully inscrib-
ed trophy with a mounted fish and
the identification of the award.
Other men had rare experiences
to tell like John Cole, St. who al-
most landed a larger king salmon
than Deffinbaugh but after sev-
eral times around the boat the
leader came untied and a beautiful
fish was lost. Also Harry New;
man caught a large shark but had
to let it go also.
Plans are being made for an-
other trip next fall already.
Next Sunday morning at the
meeting place, P.U.D. auditoriu
at 3rd and Cota, the guest speal¢-
er wiI1 be Chaplain Leinuel D: Md-
Elyea, senior chaplain at the Mili-
tary Air Transport command at

Stnly this county is not going
into a financial tailspin! Talk on
other subjects points up the high
eb.rnings of Mason County work-
ing people. The richness of thee
county is well knowp; and her
taxes .should adequately support

have begun) two or three! We

top and tow voltage electricity for
those tax dollars. The Bookmobile
is a step in the right direction and
I for one will be ashamed of those
who cause its discontinuance if
that happens. I cannot believe
that we will loe this fine service
with its highly trained personnel.
It is a service for everyone, no
matter who or what age they are.
It can be so immeasureabli help-
ful to anyone who will use it that
it seems astounding that anyone
should have to say anythin.g in its
behalf; like saying we thtnb the
electric light is a fire thing and
more people should get to know
how to use it!
So the merger will cost Mason
County more. So we are willing
to pay for it. We don't mind pay-
lng for something that isvaluable
to us and that is costly only inas-
much as we neg|ect to ge.t out of
it what' we can if we only want to.
Traveling over some of the roads
in Mason County probably makes
the upkeep more expensive, too,
as some of us can testify to, If
the proposed petition against the
Bookmobile gets man signatures
it will be a th(ghtless
tern so persons interested in par-
ticular subjects are urged to make
their wishes known and if enough
individuals are interested classes
will be arranged in almost any
subject.

gests that snch interest be put on

variance with the finest progress
of our county in my opinion. If
self-betterment by reading or just
reading PERIOD is considered un-
necessary (although you ARE
reading to find out what this

and the old people who cannot

Dear Sit':
Why is this controversy about
the Thurston-Mason County Re-
gional Library again growing? It
sdems strange to hie that anyone
cn'feel justified in thinking that

ALDERBROOK IN:N
DINING
DESIGNED
FOR YOUR
CONVENIENCE
Yason County. We must try to see
the other side of any picture if we
are to be fail' in our decisions, but
while I feel that anyone who puts
up a strongly felt argument on
ay subject thinks that he is right
arid is slncere, usually, I cannot
follow the thinking in this case.
Yes, anyone who lives in Shel-
ton or on the outskirts can go to
her library and does not need the
Bookmobile probably. Mason
County, on the other hand, is a
large and widely spread area.
Probably the majority of its pop-
ulation does not visit Shelton once
a month, leave alone once every
week or two. Is Shelton Christ-
mastown, U.S.A. -- behind this?
If she is it would seem to me no
asset to her name to have this
kind of blot upon it. If those of
you who wish to discontinue the
Bookmobile services would ride
around 'the outer edges of your
county and find out what those
who 'need and appreciate this
service think you ..might change
your opinions, for I am sure that l
you have Just not given it enough
over-all thinking.
Surely, ih this age of speed and
specialized eveTthing, we need to,
know all we are capable of learn-
ing. We haven!t the time to learn
very much as it is. If we would
take advantage of this wonderful
opportunity to fir, d out: almost
anything we wish to know merely
by requesting reading matter on
rangements for the date in coop-
eration with the president, John
Stentz. President Stentz has for
the past year talked about the
wonderful fishing trip o[ last year
until 'about 33 men were willing to
take the day off and enjoy the
trip.
A bus was chartered to take the
men to the fishing grounds leav-
ing Shelton at 5 a.m. last Satur-
day and arriving back at 7 p.m.
weary but happy.
A trophy was awarded Bob Def-
finbaugh for the largest king sal-
mon caught and to Bernie Dorcy
for the largest oliver caught. Both
men received a beautifully inscrib-
ed trophy with a mounted fish and
the identification of the award.
Other men had rare experiences
to tell like John Cole, St. who al-
most landed a larger king salmon
than Deffinbaugh but after sev-
eral times around the boat the
leader came untied and a beautiful
fish was lost. Also Harry New;
man caught a large shark but had
to let it go also.
Plans are being made for an-
other trip next fall already.
Next Sunday morning at the
meeting place, P.U.D. auditoriu
at 3rd and Cota, the guest speal¢-
er wiI1 be Chaplain Leinuel D: Md-
Elyea, senior chaplain at the Mili-
tary Air Transport command at

Stnly this county is not going
into a financial tailspin! Talk on
other subjects points up the high
eb.rnings of Mason County work-
ing people. The richness of thee
county is well knowp; and her
taxes .should adequately support

top and tow voltage electricity for
those tax dollars. The Bookmobile
is a step in the right direction and
I for one will be ashamed of those
who cause its discontinuance if
that happens. I cannot believe
that we will loe this fine service
with its highly trained personnel.
It is a service for everyone, no
matter who or what age they are.
It can be so immeasureabli help-
ful to anyone who will use it that
it seems astounding that anyone
should have to say anythin.g in its
behalf; like saying we thtnb the
electric light is a fire thing and
more people should get to know
how to use it!
So the merger will cost Mason
County more. So we are willing
to pay for it. We don't mind pay-
lng for something that isvaluable
to us and that is costly only inas-
much as we neg|ect to ge.t out of
it what' we can if we only want to.
Traveling over some of the roads
in Mason County probably makes
the upkeep more expensive, too,
as some of us can testify to, If
the proposed petition against the
Bookmobile gets man signatures
it will be a th(ghtless
tern so persons interested in par-
ticular subjects are urged to make
their wishes known and if enough
individuals are interested classes
will be arranged in almost any
subject.
Principal George Hermes sug-
gests that snch interest be put on
record by'calling the senior high
school office. The phone number is

gesture and one completely at
variance with the finest progress
of our county in my opinion. If
self-betterment by reading or just
reading PERIOD is considered un-
necessary (although you ARE
reading to find out what this
says!) .... try to think of the chin
dren, of the sick and handicapped
and the old people who cannot
drive forty miles for a book.
