It will take place at the new Timberland Regional Library Administrative Offices at 1006 South Sound Boulevard in Lacey. To Close extended area from which to canvass, the choicest specimens are still to be found in the rich-soiled gardens of the Skokomish Valley. From elsewhere in the county various items are gathered - wool, seafoods, seeds, grains, eggs, honey. On Wednesday women convene in the Grange hall to sort, inspect, wash, polish and evaluate the specimens so generously contributed. Each must be flawless and spotless as well as matched in size and shape with others of the variety. Selected items are carefully packed in labeled and numbered boxes. By car and by truck, all is transported on Thursday morning to Puyallup, where for two madly frantic and exhilarating days, the display is built according to the previously set up design. More than 1000 individual fruits and vegetables filled the center compartments. Eighty sparkling jars of canned goods, plus 36 glasses of jelly and 20 containers of seeds and grains were flanked by dairy and livestock products. Not without its lighter side were the hours and days of labors. Mrs. George Barclay, who refused to permit her husband to carry her carton of specially-made jelly lest he drop it, did that very thing herself, and was obliged to make 12 new glasses of the beautiful stuff. And while working on the lofty scaffolding to create the Puyallup booth, the posteriors of both Mrs. Hunter and Mrs. Crosson were recorded by camera for subsequent televising from Channel 11. Out of a possible 1000 points awarded on the basis of variety, quality and quantity, the Mason County display received 965, 60 points more than the number received by the nearest competitor. For arrangement, 200 points out of a possible 200 were awarded. A very, very happy sigh of pleasure and exhaustion is audible throughout the Skokomish Valley, issuing from almost every home with the possible exception of the George Barclay residence.
