HI 1/26 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.

Whatever is right can be achieved through the irresistible power of awakened and informed public opinion. Our object, therefore, is not to enquire whether a thing can be done, but whether it ought to be done, to so exert the forces of publicity that public opinion will compel it to be done.
