the beautiful new structure, built

father, Frank Binns, probably the
oldest in point of service school
director in this state, after serv-
ing for 37 years as a director on
the Southside school board, who
accepted the building on behalf of
the school district.
Native Son
The son was born and received
his early schooling in Mason Coun-
ty. earned a Rhodes scholarship,
and has made a wide reputation
for himself in law and in govern-
ment work since.
Harold S. Kern, area director“
of the N.Y.A., in a short taik,‘
pointed out that “20 N.Y.A. boys
went to work on the Southside
community center on August 15
under the supervision of Harry
Hurst of Shelton, and working only
60 hours a month each, they con:-
pleted this 24x44 building and in-
stalled a 10-foot elevated stage
in 2% months, demonstrating
again that youth can do what is
needed to do."
Mr. Kern praised highly the su—i
pervision of Mr. Hurst on the
project, and the cooperation given
by Shelton merchants in providing
the materials which went into the
building.
Martin, Huston Aid
J. E. Martin, county school ou-
perintendent and a teacher at the
Southside school for ten years be-
fore that, acted as master of cere-
monies for the dedication program
with Lee Huston, ardent 4-H club
leader and the main moving spirit
iin securing the new community
center, in the role of “assistant”
toastmaster. Huston and Martin
drew up the plans for the building
and Huston kept at the project
despite innumerable obstacles un-
til it was finally pushed to com—
pletion,
Voters of the Southside school
district approved a special tax
levy last year to provide the
funds necessary. The new club-
house is to be used for community
gatherings, social activities, 4-H
club meetings, and as an audi—
torium for the Southside school.
Mrs. B. N. Collier, chairman,
and Victor Johnson, third mem-l
her of the board, and Mrs. Bert
Hurst, past member of the board.
were all introduced at the dedica—
tion program and complimented
for their parts in the project.
County Agent Clinton Okers-
trom, 4—H leader for this county;

Allyn Reclu—se Is
Suicide Suspect
Evidently either the victim of
his own hand or an accidental dis-
charge of his highpowered rifle,
Charles Titlleach, about i 50, was
found dead, shot through the head,
in his cabin at Allyn by neighbors
Saturday.
The body was found in a chair,
a highpowered rifle between the
knees, indicating the death could
have been either self-inflicted or
accidental. A postcard found in
the room, dated October 26, indi-
cated the death had occurred
since that date, while the condi—
tion of the body indicated the vic-
tim had been dead about a week.
Little is known of Titlleach
other than that he had resided at
Allyn for many years, had talked
English only brokenly, and had

Mason County Voters you neglected your real
American duty and privilege last September,
and we’re wonderingif you are going to do it
again at the general election this Tuesday.
Only 64% of Mason County’s registered vot-
g‘s went to the polls last September, 3755 out of
0839. Not a very good showing for the import-
ance of the event.
Registration has increased since then so
that now there are over 6400 voters eligible to
cast ballots in the general election. There actu-
ally should be 6,400 ballots cast because every
citizen who has made the effort to make himself
an eligible voter certainly can and owes it to
himself and his country to make the small effort
of going to polls and casting his ballot to help
settle the momentuous issues of this election.
Such issues as “should there be a third term
for any American president,” “should the people

HILL, KAMILCHE
CAR, GARAGE BURN
The red demon of fire struck
twice close to Shelton in three
days, completely destroying a Cap-
itol Hill home and threatening ser-
iously a Kamilche home aftel
leveling a car, garage and wood
shed.
The Capitol Hill blaze complete-
ly destroyed the fine home of Mrs.
Frank Salmi, occupied by Mrs.
Annie Bloomquist, early last Fri-
day morning, the conflagration
spreading so rapidly none of the
furnishings were saved. City fire-
men responding to the call con-
fined their efforts to saving neigh-
boring residences.
Although the loss has not been
definitely set $1200 worth of fur—
niture was destroyed in addition
to the home iself. Mrs. Bloom-
quist was at home at the time
and was only able to escape her-
self.
SYstem of a car owned byeHarold
Carr, Rt. 1 mail carrier, started a
fire early Sunday morning which
iresulted in the destruction of the
machine, the garage it was housed
in, and a woodshed and storage
room. In addition to the car, the
structure destroyed was valued at
$500 and contents such as wash-
ing machine, canned fruit, and
other things an additional $700,
bringing the total loss, including
the car, to around $2000.
The blaze threatened the Carr
home and it took the efforts of
several volunteer fire fighters and
the Carr family to save the home.
The ill'e was first discovered by
Miss Virginia Carr, daughter of
MI'. and Mrs. Carr, when she
was awakened by the auto’s horn

Third Term Issue To Attract Roc-
ord Number To Polls In
Mason County; Stake
Is Large
We, the people, go to the polls
this Tuesday to express our con-
victions on national, state and
county issues and candidates in
what is generally termed the
most important general election
since 1916 in America.
Polls will be open from 8 a._ in.
to 8 p. m. in all Mason County pre-
cincts for voters to cast ballots
which will help settle one of the
most burning issues in the his-
tory of these United States—shall
any President be elected to a third
term.
No other issue approaches this
one in the general interest of the
public at this election. It is an
issue which is expected to draw
a record number of voters to the
polls in Mason County. A new
record registration total of 6463
voters has been reached here, from
which a record total vote is ex-
pected.
State Battle Active
In addition to the presidential
struggle, which now appears to
be a close race in view of recent
Republican gains, a full slate of
offices will be voted upon, two
county commissioners will. be sel-
ected and six special measures will-
be voted upon.
The gubernatorial race between
Arthur Langlie, Republican, and
C. C. Dill, Democrat, is tops in
general interest on the state slate,

The 64% who voted
last September voiced
their expression on who they wanted to repre-
sent us in the state legislature and in other of-~
fices. They helped to nominate the men and
women and now all you Missing Mason County
Voters can do is pass upon them. If you don’t
like them you haven’t any complaint coming.
You made no effort to stop their nomination
last September when you had the chance. But
you do now have the chance to elevate the one
among the nominees you had no hand in choos-
ing and you should certainly do that or forever
hold your peace if you’re not satisfied with the
results.
If you cast a vote you have a right to do
whatever criticizing you feel prompted to if
you don’t like what the office holders are doing.
But if you don’t vote (and could have), then you
have no right to open your mouth against the
man in office for you didn’t do anything to keep
him from getting there.
