Board To Meet
The Timberland Regional
Library Board of Trustees will
hold its final budget hearing for
1971 at a special meeting of the
board to be held Thursday, Sept.
24 at 7:30 p.m. The meeting, as
all official meetings of the board,
is open to the public. 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. Chairman The Grapeview Post Office
Barclay is already busy with his has discontinued Saturday
seed catalogs, window service, as of Sept. 26.
"There's no reason," he says, Mail will still be distributed to

The first bucket of concrete
was poured into the forms at
Wynoochee Dam September 11,
beginning an operation which will
end 90,000 cubic yards of
concrete later with the
completion of the main dam

The contractor delivered the
first 4-yard bucket from the
on-site concrete plant to monolith

The project is located 37
miles north of Montesano, in
Olympic National Forest. It is
being built to provide additional
industrial water supply to the
City of Aberdeen, flood control
to the Wynoochee Valley, low

increase production of game fish
and migrating salmon in the river,

Q. How high are college costs getting?
A. A recent study by the Life Insurance Institute
shows that college costs are pushing mortgage costs out
of first place for many families. It can now run over
$21,000.00 to put three children through a public
college or university.
