Harstine: Mary M. Knight School: Pioneer: i i i i i| i,, i ii Bridge Will Change Way Of Life Here Mrs. Jean Higginson Is NARCE Elec÷s 'Dfficers By CARMEN YATES HARSTINE -- Early Wednes- day morning of last week brought slim hopes to the proponents of the bridge and by noon the unof- ficial results were that the bridge vote was favorable by just the tip of the proverbial nose. The news made some glad, others sad and maybe even a few mad. This observance comes from reading the numerous letters in the Journal on the subject over the past few years. No matter which side of the fence each in- dividual was on; when the day comes to finally retire the Grand Old Lady almost everyone will certainly feel just a bit of nostalgia. For our way of life will certainly undergo a change. Whether for better or worse only time will tell. To say the least it will be different. But no matter which side of the issue you were on, one feeling is very unan- iraous, the relief that at long last it has been settled and it is all over. For on three previous bal- lots it has been decided, but the proponents weren't about to set- tie for those three decisions, whereas the opponents would have been more than happy to accept the results of a defeated bridge. Social Club met Friday even- ing at the Hall with about 15 present. One committee was crossed off the books. You gues- sed it, the bridge committee. How- ever, the members of that com- mittee will continue to take an active interest in how things are progressing over the coming months. The question of the rent- ing of the Hall got a thorough going over by those present. Nothing about the rental was actually changed, only a clarifi- cation concerning the rental was ironed out. The fee of $10 still applies for anyone renting the hall for their private use, or for an island club or organization. In the case of a going away party, or an event that is for the entire community and the offic- cers are informed prior to the event and are agreeable to el)en- suring said event there will be no charge. Seventeen Harstine gale were guests of the Pickering Women's Club last Thursday at their club- house just North of the ferryland- ing on the mainland. Luncheon was awaiting the guests when they arrived via the 12:30 p.m. ferry. Both Clubs had white ele- phant, bake, and plant sales. A÷ Meeting Here friends, the Mac Thornbergs of Garden City. This year made their 18th trip to Utah. Their daughter J a n e 1 accompanied them and upon her return made plans for another trip; perhaps the biggest one of her life, at least, thus far. Last Friday the Burches drove Janel to Sea-Tar where she en- planed to Hawaii to meet her fiance, Thomas Hranac. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. William Hranac of Aberdeen. The couple planned to be married this past Monday. The newlyweds will have about a month in Hawaii before Tom will have to leave for Vietnam at which time Janel will return to stay with her folks dur- ing his absence. And even though the Burcbes won't be making the trip they'll be able to relive it with her when she re- turns with pictures and even a tape recording of the actual ceremony. News from their son, Brian, is that since he has started his second two year assignment with the Peace Corp he has been as- signed the post of field officer in charge of poultry. Much of his time will be spent traveling be- tween the many Islands in the Caroline chain where he is now stationed. One of the most inter- esting aspects of the new locality is that they are very close to the equator and thus there is practi- cally no difference in the time of sunrise and sunset from day to day. Or the very slight rise and fall of the tides on the Islands. And before we leave the Point Wilson area your reporter learned via the grape vine that Professor Ragsdale came across the ferry last Sunday noon, so took a drive down that way to investigate this news item. For this is not the usual time of the year for seeing him. He said that his work had taken him to Mis- souls to the University of Mon- tana. Having completed his work and it was a Friday evening he decided he wasn't very far from Harstine. So he f,)und a train go- ing his waY and arrived in Ta- coma in time to catch a ride to the Island with his good fri('nd. the Murry Morgans of ' , Lake. Thus, Sunday found Pro- fessor Ragsdale enjoying a rare treat, indeed, a fall day relaxing at his hide-away retreat on Har- stine Island in Puget Sound. Late Sunday evening he was winging his way back to Madison, Wis. in order to greet his first class at At the Chaffee home there were 16 for dinner last Sunday. The occasion, being Paul's birthday on Friday. His two sisters, Mrs. Jennie Spence from Chehalis and Mrs. Faye Marble and her husband, weren't: able to be here over the weekend, so they came for an overnight visit Tuesday and Wednesday before his birth- day. Their daughter, Betty Radelet and three of her chil- dren from Portland and son Ernie and his family from Van- couver came up for the weekend. Also on hand was their grandson. Judy Radelet from Seattle. Jumping up to the N:)rth end of the Island and Claire Wingert's home; it was bursting at the seams with all the grandchildren. Two daughters Mary and Bill Depoe, and their five youngsters and Elaine Fredricks and dau- ghter Shells and a friend of Elaine's, John Norman of Bel- fair were out for the weekend. Monday son-in-law, Bill came back to remove a Maple tree near Claire's house, which has been a bit of a worry in stormy, windy weather. The A1 Weihmanns drove up from Portland to spend the week- end at their t)roperty on the North end. Also learned the Archie Doo- littles have been back at home in Sumner for a little over a week following a six weeks trip to Montana, to visit friends and relatives at Denton, where Archie was raised. The Doolittles timed their trip to coincide with hunt- ing season. They said they had a wonderful trip and a very nice time. A week ago on Wednesday they drove out to their property here on the Island for the day. The John Hitchcocks enjoyed the visit of their two grandsons, Mary and Randy Carnes for two days last weekend. The Stieg Gabrielsens accom- panied by friends from the apart- ments where they live overlook- ing the Narrows in Tacoma were out last weekend enjoying a couple of days relaxing in the peace and quiet of their place on Spencer Cove. From all Billie Stamborski's Island friends and neighbors may I extend condolences and a speedy recovery while in Seattle arm she received while in Seattle a week ago last weekend. The Hugo Glasers had the pleasure of meeting their grand- son Danny Simmons' new bride last Saturday when the young I :=uL', Six÷h Grade Teacher By TERESA TRIMBLE One of our new teachers was picked this week for the spotlight in our column. She is Mrs. Jean Higginson, the fifth and sixth grade teacher. Mrs. Higginson was born in Seattle and lived in Purdy, for the first four years of her life. Her family then moved to Friday Harbor where they remained. Mrs. Higginson gradu- ated from Western Washington State College and has attended both the University of Washing- ton and Seattle Pacific College. She is making plans to take up graduate studies in the field of counseling and guidance in the near future. She has taught at Lincoln Grade School in Bellflower, Calif., Snoqualmie Grade School in Snoqualmie, Stuart Island Grade School in Stuart Island, and Adams Elementary School a n d Viewlands Elementary School in Seattle. She has taught one year at each school with the exception of Seattle where she taught a total of four years. Mrs. Higginson claims that probably her most interesting teaching ex- perience was the year she taught in a one room school on Stuart Island. She says that there were four pupils, each in a different grade. Mrs. Higginson has come from a family of teachers. Her mater- nal grandmother is retired, her mother is teaching at West Wood- land Elementary in Seattle, her maternal uncle is presently teaching at Winthrop, and her brother and sister-in-law both teach at the high school in Ta- coma. Her husband, William Hig- ginson is also a teacher. He is the music teacher and librarian at Mary M. Knight. Mr. and Mrs. Higginson have four girls. Lisa, nearly two; Lesli, seven, Jays 11, and Carla, 12. There will be a Board of Directors meeting Nov. 13. Ken- neth Gribble will be welcomed as the new member. The P.T.O. Back-To-School for the parents was a real success. A fairly large group of parents attended each class. It helped the parents to understand more clearly the work their children are doing. Grades 1-6 have been working on Thanksgiving displays for their rooms. The first and second graders have on display, a Thanksgiving dinner in pictures. The third and fourth graders have Thanksgiving pictures on display and the fifth and sixth have been busy making turkeys to decorate their bulletin. Union: Ladies Civic Club Has Meeting Last Thursday By NANCY VRAHNOS Mrs. Dorothy Aldrich journey- UNION -- Things have been quiet in Union this last week. Everybody is resting up for the activities of the Holiday Season that will soon be here. With the winds of last week, people have been very busy raking up the discarded finery of fall.

There will be a potluck luncheon and a gift exchange. Mrs. Mary Jarchow and Mrs. Dorothy Aldrich will be ed to the Portland area week before last to visit with her daughter Ns. Jane Fish. She spent four days returning home late the following Monday. There were a couple of lucky hunters last week or maybe not so lucky. Steve Morris and Pete Fassio went out looking for elk. Right off they located a herd and both got their elk. It took them all day though to pack out the meat. If anyone has any news and have been unable to reach this reporter, it is suggested that you call Sunday afternoons be- tween 2 and 5 p.m. or N[ondays By DOROTItY COSTA AND CODG BROOKS ]l PIONEER -- N.A.R.C.E. mem- bers celebraled their club's first anniversary Nov. 9.

Pot luck supper at 6:30 p.m. preceeding the business meeting at 7 p.m. Florence Jerrells was over Sun- day afternoon calling on friends and former neighbors at Point Wilson. She dropped in on the Joe Brignones, Hi Burches and John Neimis. Neimis had lots of news about their recent three month stay up at Lake Anaheim in British Co- lumbia. Most of their time was spent getting roads put in and a sight to build on when they re- turn next May. Both fishing and hunting are really spectacular up in that area. During the three months they camped out they became very much aware of the numerous birds anti because there are so many varieties be- gan to join other bird watchers in the vicinity and are now avid bird watchers themselves. They became especially watchful for two magpies as they are very rarely seen in that particular area. Before they left the foliage was turning and they thought it extremely gorgeous, which cor- responded with the thoughts of residents, who said that this fall the colors were more breath-tak- ingly beautiful than they had been for many years. And com- ing home they enjoyed the fall display all along the highways. At the Hi Burch cabin there was the news of their recent hunting trip to Utah. Along with hunting they especially enjoy camping together with their old NOTES FROM NElL ream Scientists are now beginning to come up with some of the answers to the phenomenon of dening. Ancient peoples could offer no fac- tual explanation for the mixed-up ideas and thoughts that disturbed their slumber. They did know, however, that ;tlii'e';meul':"i'n pictures' troubled and disturbed the mind during sleep. That is why that many people ascribe the derivation ioft-he wdrd "dream" to the old Anglo-Saxon term dre]an which meant to trouble or disturb.
