home management of the State
College of Washington, has this
to say about the proper care of
aluminum•
Because alkali darkens alumi-
num, no washing sod, strong
soap or ordinary Scouring pow,
ders which contain alkali should
be used in cleaning it. Instead,
use mild, pure soap or soapless
suds, then rinse and wipe dry.
If the inside of the pan is dark,
it can be brightened easily. Just
fill the pan with water, add a lit-
tle vinegar or cream of tarter
and heat a few minutes, Or use it
to cook such mildly acid foods as
rhubarb, tomatoes, tart apples,
dr sour milk. This will not harm
the food for eating.
After using an aluminum pan
for cooking, wash off all food
sticking to the pan. Do this
promptly to avoidpitting. Storing
food in aluminum may also cause
pitting.
If food burns on aluminum,
soften it by fill, trig the pan with
water and bringing it to a boil.
Then scrape with a wooden spoon,
wash in soapy water and polish
with steel wool. For scouring, use
very fine steel wool (grade O0)
or a paste of powdered chalk and
vinegar. (Powdered chalk may be
purchased at drug stores).
Rubbing with cream of tarter
will also brighten aluminum, but
costs more than vinegar.

Hood Canal E,n'ly History
Related A t Recent Meeting
By Mrs. C. E. Hill
Several visitors were present for the afternoon session
of the Hooit Canal Women s Club meeting, September 8,
some of them long-time residents of the Canal area or relat-
ed to community pioneers. These visitors and club members
were privileged to hear the early history reports of the
canal region.
Lives of the early residents
*d their activities as loggers,
mill-operators, farmers, bome-
stealers, mining prospectors,
resort operators, teachers, post-
masters, etc., became vivid for
the attdience from the incidents
Sthly portrayed by the speak-
ers.
The "Bit of llmnor," a feature
of the chtb's progfmm ecit
month, consisted of him}orous
aneedotes of Hood Canal resi-
dents, told by the amateur his-
torlans.
Of special interest was the
reading of a paper by Helen An-
dersen, which was written by
lter mother, Fannie Gore Mc-
Reavy, daughter of a sea cap-
tain, Capt. Warren Gore, who
sailed from Boston around the
Hont at the age of thre, and
became a resident of Union Olty
on the Canal, following her
marriage in 1870 to John Mc
Revy.
The pa@er, writteg for the
State Itistorlcai Society, was
noteworthy for |ts lively style,
high,lighted with humor in de-
scribing pioneer life.
In aldltlon to her mother's
story, Mrs. Andersen trd the
,history of Union aad Lower
Skokomlsh, begiunlng with a,
1830 lludson s Bay post to the
boom days of 180,
Mrs. Edmiston's story of the
Illustrated with mal,s and
sketches and a few relics, the
story of pioneer days of the
Hood Canal communities from
which the club has drawn mem-
bership, was related hy llelen
Aqdersot of Union, Mrs. D. S.
Edmiston and Mrs. J. S. Ahi of
Relfalr and Mrs. C. E. Hill of
IAIllwanp.
It was evident that much time
had been spent in research and
writing fro, her fine contribution
to the pioneer program,
Mrs. J. S. Ah] another member
of the Belfair Woman's Club, fol-
lowed Mrs. Edmiston with "the
story of Lilliwaup, where she,
herself, was born. Coming frown
an early family, the John Mat-
sons.
Mrs. Ahl has been interested for
some time in Hood Canal pioneer
history and had many interesting
I facts drawn from personal inter-
views with older residents.
Her talk was illustrated with
her own sketches of Lilliwaup in
the boom days of 1890-91 and also
a map of the plat of the "dream
town" envisioned by the residents
at that time when proposed rain
[roads and mines led to feverish
excitement. The original map was
loaned by Frank Robinson of Lil-
liwaup.
Belfair area, its first settlers and
growth was characterized by a
smoothness and vividness of de-
scription, which held. the intense
interest of her audience.
Many characters of the nine-
teentb century life of th0,t region
were deftly described and the
country itself, with its virgin for-
ests, sparkling canal waters and
wild game arid salmon was por-
trayed by the visiting speaker, a
member of the Belfair Woman's
Club.
HooD CANAL GARDEN CLUB
MEETS SEPTEMBER 4
The Garden Club meeting was
held September 4 at the home of
Mrs. Dortha Carey near Lilliwaup.
Potluck luncli was held at noon
with the business meeting follow-
ing.
Interesting papers were pre-
pared by Mrs. Alide Hill whose
subject was household bulbs, Mrs.
Cecil Gilbert who reported on
shrubs, and Mrs. Bulah Worl,
whose paper told of the division
Beginning with the arrival in
1880 of Capt. G. K. Robbins and
Vincent Finch, who became his
son-in-law, Hoodsport and Cush-
man pioneers had their turn on
the program, with Mrs. C. E. Hill
as historian.
The family home of the Finches,
which served at various times as
post-office, telephone office, town
meeting - lJlace and hospitality
center, was where the Gateway
Inn hotel now stands in Hoods-
j port.
Ida Robbins Finch and her
daughter, Mrs. Hazel Bleecker,
are both charter members of the
Hood Canal Woman's Club, and
many of the people prominent in
Hoodsport-Cushman pioneer days,
have relatives who are present-
i day club members.
The 1892 store ledger of Capt,
Robbin's Hoodsport store was
loaned by his granddaughtei" for
the program and its entries
brought interesting comparison
with goods and prices of today.

Ladies Make
Decision, Plans
At First Meet ,
Demonstrating enthusiastic sup-
port for the proposed county war
memorial Civic-Youth cnter in
Shelton, members of the Hood
Canal Woman's Club voted Thurs-
day, Sept. 18, to contribute to it
ten per cent of the net proceeds
of the bazaar to be held Novem-
ber 22 for the benefit of their
own club house building project.
The club is affiliated with the
county federation which has urged
through its executive boar(1 that
all its members back the memor-
ial building to serve the youth and
also civic groups of Mason county.
Drastic style changes inspired
by stylists working with big man,-
ufaeturers, were protested by the
members, who passed a resolution
declaring changes which took ex-
tra materials during a time of
world clothing shortage to be "im-
moral."
The resolution also mentioned
unhealthful aspects of styles
which hampered mowment and
wholesome exercises. The same
resolution will be presented to the
district convention October 7.
A resolution against Universal
Military Training wa not acted
upon since the membership wished
more time for study of the pro-
posed legislation for compulsory,
peacetime training,
Reports of' delegates to the
state convention in May were
made on the morning program,
with Mrs. W. E. Carry, Mrs. O.
E. Hill and Mrs. J. R. DeBard
speaking.
This was the first fall meeting
of the Hood Canal Woman's olub
which meets the third Thursday
of each month in the Hoodsport
school.
Mrs. W. E. Carey, president,
urged all women inteersted in
joining to notify the club in time
to have their names in the year

tact the yearbook chairman, Mrs.
Mabel Avey, Hoodsport 25-W-3.
The luncheon hour. with Mrs.
E. O. Gifford, Mrs. Win. Gilbert
and Ms. Dess Haines as hostesses,
was an enjoyable part of the day.

lunchroom and was followed by
the afternoon program, dedicated
to "Hood Canal Pioneers.
