Winter months if

recipient of further
modernification (don't look for
that last word in your dictionary
-- it's an original!) recently.
Thursday of last week the
equipment that writes its own
brand of morse code on our
highways and byways was on the
Island performing its messages on
all the paved roads. The main
message being, now we all,
residents and visitors alike are
suppose to be able to tell which
portion of the road is our
respective share each side, not
the middle!
And the first part of this week
some of the P.U.D. crew were
busy installing light standards on
the bridge so that in near future
we'll be able to find said bridge
on dark winter days and nights.
Somehow this reporter feels those
pretty red and one green light
won't be quite colorful with this
forthcoming bit of modernizing.
Now for a tidbit of reader
service. If some of the rest of you
like myself went to the
Bookmobile last Thursday at the
regular time and waited to no
avail for the for-mentioned
vehicle. Now hear this (and pay
attention) - the time of arrival
was changed as of last week. On
the Bookmobiles next visit which
will be Sept. 25 or Thursday of
next week it will be at the School
between 11:20 a.m. and noon.
The Sid Baunsgards had an
enjoyable couple of days at Lake
Quinault last week. They stayed
at the Lodge and enjoyed
beautiful weather and tried a bit
of stream fishing which wasn't
successful, only fun.
Overnight guests and the Irvie
Wingert home the latter part of
last week were the Antone
ttendericksons, a cousin of
Hilma's. She reported it had been
11 years since the visitors, from
Seattle had been to the Island.
Visiting the Bud Glaser family
this week is Donette's mother,
Mrs. Don Eddy from Hoquiam.
Another note from the Glaser
home is that Pat Glaser is
currently on crutches as of a knee
injury which occurred du'ring hcr
P. E. class last week. She pulled
some ligaments and will be on
crutches yet for a couple more
weeks.
Wilbur and Doris Jacobsen'last
week headed east of the
mountains for a short camping
trip in the Yakima area. They
planned the outing to conclude ai
Randle Saturday, so as to be on
hand for the wedding of Arnold
Pratt and his bride. He is the son
of some very close friends of
Doris and Wilbur, the Frank
Pratts also of Randle.
This week the Wilbur
Jacobsons headed for Eugene for
a bit of business and to visit their
daughters and families also while
in the area.
Recent guests of Marie Crouch
and also the Wilbur Jacobsons,
was Les and Vi Johnson of
Olympia and three of their sons.
Rusty Yates parents surprised
him for his ninth birthday by
planning' an outing to a horse
show near Elma. Island friends
the Chuck Bridges family who are
horse enthusiats, had told them of
the Fun Day Show, scheduled for
this past Sunday. Since that was
the date of Rusty's birthday it
gave the Glenn Yates the idea.
Going along for the llorse
Show and picnic type birthday
were Tacoma friends, Carol
Bengelsdorf and children, Susan
and John and also the three
Seamen youngsters, Christine,
Brad and Craig. (They and their
morn, Jacky, have been renting
the home formerly owned by
Florence Jerrells since about the
middle of the summer. The three
children are attending Pioneer
School). Another surprise for
Rusty came when Grandma Lila
and Aunt Ella Kennedy who is
presently visiting from Colorado
appeared at the Ilorse Show.
Crashing the party much to their
delight as well as Rusty's was
another Aunt, Elizabeth Nelson
and her son, Tim and daughter,
Jean, as they were ending a trip
around the Loop together. (More
about this later.)
After all the events were over,
some of which the Chuck Bridges
family placed among the winners,
a birthday picnic followed
complete with cake and pudding
and presents. But the events
which were to makethe birthday
very memorable were yet to
CO lne.
Usually one and one add up to
two, or at least this is what most
mathematicians will tell us.
ltowever, Sunday evening they
were to add up to eight very
sleepy youngsters, plus one sleepy
bus driver (yours truly) come
Monday morning.
It all began when Chuck
brought his truck down to load
the three horses, Tonka, Chip and
Tinkerbell. The truck bogged
down in loose sandy gravel to
start things off. Thinking the
weight of the horses might help,
Chuck started loading them on
the truck. During this process
Tonka managed to get away from
him while he was changing the
bridle and halter. After some time
he was once again rounded up and
loaded along with the other two.
Seeing this was not going to do
the trick a neighbor with a tractor
was called for help. Several tons
of horse flesh was just too much
for the tractor to hack - so the
horses were unloaded. After much
shoveling and pulling with the
tractor the truck was finally freed
from its near sandy grave.
Another spot was chosen for
the loading process and at last all
were on their way home.
But unbeknown to everyone all
was not well. The Yates car
coming around the corner near
the old ferrylanding suddenly
came upon about ten bottles,
mostly beer bottles, scattered
clear across the road, not in the
ditch where most litterbugs pitch
them, and was unable to miss all
of them, which made the car
owners furious since they'd just
put four new tires on the car last
Friday. Which leads this reporter
to make this observation: Judging
from the ditches along roads all
over the country of ours, beer
drinkers are certainly messy
people. Perhaps we have more
than enough laws now, but one
more seems like it might be more
effective. That is, instead of fining
litterbugs as is now being done, if
they were made to clean up a
portion (several miles) of our
highways and byways, they might
think twice before they opened
the window and heaved anymore
rubbish out the window!
The Chuck Bridges weren't out
of the woods yet either. While
taking their horses back to
pasture on the Sunset Hill they
ran out of gas just as they nearly
reached the turn. This meant a
three mile hike for Chuck back to
the Seward home for gas. By the
time they finally resolved these
lastest problems, the three Bridges
children could have won a contest
for least amount of sleep of the
whole bunch. All in all a very,
very memorable ninth birthday
for Rusty Yates.
Thursday evening of last week
Lila Peugh and her sister Ella
Kennedy visiting from Colorado
set off for Seattle. The next
morning joined by a third sister,
Elizabeth Nelson and her
daughter, Jean and son, Tim they
all set off on a trip around the
Olympic Pennisula. First they
stopped north of Seattle to visit
Elizabeth's oldest daughter, Cleo
Somers and family.
MASON COUNTY'S entry in the agriculture and
horticulture exhibits at the Western Washington Fair won
second place in the county competition. The Fair continues
through Sept. 21 in Puyallup. Exhibits are judged on a point
system, with 200 points being awarded in five separate
categories including livestock products, agricultural
products, horticultural products, vegetables and overall
booth arrangement.
