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.

Use the Journal Want Ads-- 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. :' Soc,al Events iil 000m00000ur,; STUDENTS, 15 OR ......

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 hood to be published in October. Those desiring to join may con- 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. Luncheon was served in the school lunchroom and was followed by the afternoon program, dedicated to "Hood Canal Pioneers.
