JIM PAULE.Y has invited the public to a
grand opening of his new Ford-Mercury
agency at Kneeland Center this Friday and
Saturday. A special section of this week's
Journal tells the complete story, in pictures
and words, of this latest addition to Mason
County's business structures, and the crew
that will work in it. The firm will be open
from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. both days of the
grand opening. Refreshments and prizes will
be featured, along with a tour of the new
facilities. Pautey revealed that the Ford
dealership in Shelton had been in the same
location (Fifth & Railroad) since 1910. He
acquired the Mercury dealership in 1955 and
the Ford franchise a year later.

A profit of $63 considered
excellent in view of the weather,
was turned in from Saturday's
dance and old-fashioned box
social by Lake Limerick Country
Club for the benefit of the
owner-member community's new
fire department.
Vice-President and Clubhouse
Chairman Everett Kissler of
Tacoma estimated the funds
would be sufficient to purchase a
new battery for the Club's fire
truck and an electric space heater
for the garage in which the truck
is housed.
The Limerick department
technically is a "committee" of
the Limerick Club, which owns
both the garage and the
pumper-holding tank apparatus.
As interim agreement with Fire
Protection District 5, however,
has given the community the full
services, as needed, of District 5
for 60 days. Meanwhile, registered
voters in the area are circulating a
petition officially to annex to
District 5, a move that would
become official after appropriate
legal filing and official approvals
from appropriate Mason County
authorities including Auditor
Ruth Boysen, Assessor Willis
Burnett and the County Planning
Commission.
Cold and windy weather, plus
a fear of Freeway hazards, kept
most of the Club's 1,125
owner-members at home.
District 5 Fire Chief and Mrs.
(Barbara) Richard A. Knight came
down from Allyn. Kissler was the
auctioneer, and some of the
midnight snack-boxes went as
high at $4.75.
Historical
Establishment of a museum in
Belfair will again be a major topic
at the Dec. 3 meeting of the
Mason County Historical Society
at Belfair Community Baptist
Church at 8 p.m.
Gertrude Armstrong will lead
a discussion on county museums
with a report on her investigation
of these institutions this year.
Mrs. Ruth Olson, director of
the Kitsap Co. Historical Society
Museum in Bremerton, will make
a special slide presentation of
historical materials in Bremerton.
The chalet-style building on
the Belfair school grounds is
presently under consideration for
a museum site. Marion Newkirk,
museum director for Mason
County, reported at the last
meeting that plans are now in
motion to obtain the unused
building from the school district.
Legal technicalities and financing
remain the chief problems, he
said.
All persons interested in
Mason County history are eligible
to join the society and attend the
meetings. Leo Livingston, Belfair,
is newly-elected president.
The December program will
include a Christmas party,
announces Mrs. Naomi Williams,
entertainment chairman. Old
fashioned Christmas quick breads
will be featured.
Tax Limit Petitions
Are Circulated Here
Local real estate offices are
joining others in the state in an
effort to get signatures on
Initiative 44, which is intended to
set the millage limit on property
taxes at 20 mills instead of 40
mills as it is now.
If sufficient signatures are
obtained, the initiative will be
presented to the State Legislature.
Even if the legislature did not
take the requested action,
property taxes would be limited
for at least two years under the
measure, a local realtor said.
The realtor's action comes in
the wake of the defeat of
Initiative 42 by the voters in the
Nov. 3 general election.
Property taxes this year have
been set at a maximum of 22
mills by the legislature, but, this
ceiling could be removed by the
legislature in its effort to increase
tax revenues, according to the
realtors.
Petitions are available at local
real estate offices for those
wanting to sign them.
Tobler
IWA Local 3-38
Members Active
"A four day Thanksgiving
holiday weekend with two days
pay (Thursday and Friday), for
qualified employees, is the result
of negotiations between Simpson
Timber Company and Local 3-38
of the International Woodworkers
of America," Local 3-38 Business
Manager Bob Whitmarsh
commented this week. "This is one
of the many benefits Union
members receive because of the
organization" he added. "The
Local is a busy one with members
on all kinds of committees,
including the Democrat Central
Committee, Republican Central
Committee, Democrat Club, The
Hospital Board, School Citizens
Advisory Committee, Mason
County Labor Council, the
Kidney Foundation, and many
others too numerous to
mention," he said. "Local Unions
have a place in every community
to help and make better the
things that are needed for a better
community in which to live. This
is the reason that Union members
pay dues, so that there is money
in the Local to help defray the
costs of hired people to look after
their interests," he added.
Air Medal
Air Force Staff Sergeant
William J. Tobler, son of retired
Lt. Col. and Mrs. Jesse A. Tobler,
220 Island Lake Drive, Shelton,
has received his fourth award of
the Air Medal for air action while
assigned at Phan Rang AB,
Vietnam.
Sgt. Tobler, a C-130 Hercules
aircraft loadmaster, was decorated
for his outstanding airmanship
and courage on successful and
important missions completed
under hazardous conditions.
He was presented the medal at
Little Rock AFB, Ark., where he
now serves with a unit of the
Tactical Air Command.
A 1965 graduate of Irene S.
Reed High School, Sergeant
Tobler attended Centralia (Wash.)
Junior College.
His wife, Merri, is the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clyde O.
Kessinger of New Castle, Del.

Science church services.
"Ancient and Modern

"Fear thou not; for 1 am with
thee: be not dismayed; for I am
thy God: 1 will strengthen thee;
yea, 1 will help thee; yea, I will
uphold thee with the right hand
of my righteousness."
From Science and Health with
Key to the Scriptures by Mary
Baker Eddy, this paszage will be
read :
"At all times and under all
circumstances, overcome evil with
good. Know thyself, and God will
supply t he wisdom and the
occasion for a victory over evil.
Clad in the panoply of Love,
human hatred cannot reach you."
