J- CTRI00 Phone 154 W :i Take. for instance, your report- ing on the htying of the Harstine cable. You say that it caused little stir among the Harstine residents. Tsk, tsl:. Mr. Jessup! You shotfld have been here when news of the arrival of the uable reached the is- land! Blood pressures rose dan- gerously and the people drove wild- ly to Shelton. Olympia Tacoma-- anywhere---in search of meter bas- es, entrance cable, and all the var- ious thingumbobs it takes to get "hooked up." WHENEVER these som'ces fail- ed we beseeched Sears Roebuck to do its best fin' us and Sears came through nobly as our obliging but weary postman, Mr. Crary, can testify. We have only three telephones here. all clustered within a quar- ter of a mile of the landing, so we rely mainly on a sort bf grapevine system (no drums, though) for spreading news. There must have been a kink in the line last week, thottgh, for Monday was the day the residents expected the cable and that was the day more than a few were on hand. Since many of them work at logging here and more are era-  pl0yed in town it was hardly feas- ible for them to keep on coming. You say no islander was on hand TueSday. This is incorrect. NAT'URALLY they wore not in- vited aboard the Gypsy en masse but several happened to come to the landing and they were intensely interested. My husbahd was one of these and he and Mr. Vincent Paul, who worked hard for lights here, congratulated each other heartily and agreed that it was quite an occasion. While probably ninety per cent of the homes here have running water and a good many have light plants the dream of electric- ity has, as you say, been in their minds for many years and they have worked for it, Last spring, when we were told that we must get 70 signers before the work could be started, spirits were very low. This seemed a formidable number in view of the fact that there are only 45 perm- "anent homes and that the cards to be signed called for a minimum of $5.00 a month for five years. B U T T H E R E were, surpris!,ngly, no cries of "Discrimination! All residents signed promptly, as did the bulk of non-resident home owners to whom we Wrote. No one objected to signing easements. Puget Mill in Seattle cooperated by sending us the names of t.hose to whom they had sold land on contract and we wrote to thes people, with good results. When it came time to do slashing, a num- ber' of the men here stopped work on better-paying Jobs to help. Not interested ? We did not have lights for Thanksgiving, nor did we expect to have, In fact, many of us were not even ready. But thanks to the efficiency of the regular P,U.D. crew We know that we will have a bright and merry Christmas. WE APPRECIArE all that the P.U.D. coinmissioners, Mr. Daniel- son. out county commissioners and friendly Shelton businessmen have done in the last few years to im- prove our island and we thank them sincerely. Because of our location we prob- ably are more or less of a "prOb- lem child" to Mason county, We're persistent to a fault and, along with most communities, could do with a few copies of "How to Win Friends and Influence People," But I dfd want to tell you and the island's other* friends in Ma- son county that the rather laugh- able picture that flashed into my mind when I read the cable ar- ticle-that of an unwashed island- er sulking in his lair and refusing to even look--was not the true one.
