SHELTON.M:ASQN COUNTY JOURNAL Recollections from 50 Years Ago By Lafe Redafe Wal, I reckon it's time fer me to come right out an' tell the world that I am a real person. Appears like they's some folks lives here-aouts don't believe it. This here pitcher should prove it! It's me, allright, taken back in '02 when I wuz a young and handsome cuss. Ain't so young anymore, though. Thet pitcher wuz took about the time I had just got all bibbed and tuckered fer town on a Sattiday night. Had some good times them days, socials and all. Times has shore changed, though. Nowadays, the young folks spends their Sattiday nights in some big town like Tacoma or Se- attle, listening to young fellers blowin' them loud horns and beat- in' on Injun drums. I wuz readin' through one of my stack of Journals th' other eve- ning, and I come acrosta item about a supprisc party I wuz to back in '97. Come to think of it, I reckon since this is the time I'm explain- in' that I reely am a reel person, I should tel al you folks how come I write about things thet hap- pened back in 97 and can remem- ber so well. It's like this--I don't reely re- member all this stuff accurate I read up on it first. Them Jour- nals been stackin' up on me the When you buy meat here, you're getting the best there is! Flavorful, tender, juicy cuts of beef, lamb or pork--all top quality;government gr,'tded meat. And it's cut right---to cut your. cost--because we trim away excess fat and bone before weighing.

Shoulder Cut FRESItLY GROUNI) LAFE REDAFE last few .years, and I hain't got around to read 'era al yet any- how, so when I do read 'era, I just sit down and write about it, and then bring it in fer this young feller who owns the Journal now to print. Don't tell him thet, though, or he will get wise and start to read- in' and doin' his own writin'. This is off the record, as the newspa- per fellers say. Wal, I wuz rec'lectin' about thet party I went to back in '97. Sur- prize party, it wuz, out to Miz Robt. Sheedy's place. Reel sup- prise, too. Bunch o' us youngsters come over to supprise young Herman on iris birthday, and 'fore we more than got set down, here .came a bunch o' the WCTU ladies and other social-ites, all bound on sup- prizin' everybody from Miz Shee- dy to the,- youngsters. They did, too. But, a good time wuz had by all o' us, and Miz Sheedy wuz give a nice sugar bowl of reel silver fer a parting gift. She wuz mov- ing away from Shelton, goin' to Northport. I re-call thet wuz about the time the members of Cedar Camp 180 o' the Woodmen o' the World had a big blowout threw fer them. They wuz meetin' at the Odd Fellers hall then, and after the reglar Monday mcetin' they give a rousin' big yell, went like this: CHOP! CHOP! CHOP! SAW! SAW! SAW! WE ARE WOODMEN RAH RAH! RAHI Then they adjourned to the sup- per room and had a nice big feed which had been Pre-parcd by the ...... ladies. George Vogttln and George Shorter made quick wprk of the .

EEF SHORTRIBS I re-cal thet wuz the week thet the R. W. Keefes lost their home B by fire in Cyphert's addition. Mr. Keep had started a fire in the stove to warm tlae house up, and , then gone down to the dock to meet his family who wuz just coming back from Olympia. While he wuz gone, the house caught afire, and burned plumb down. The Keefes had both imd their legs broke just before the fire, and had just then recovere enough to get around again.
