ONE THORN of experience is worth a whole wilderness of warning. -Lowell tie The son and the daughter-in-law of Leona Clay just couldn't resist playing Cupid. When Leona came to Shelton from Port Orchard in 1965 she was a widow, and her son, Ernest Dahlman, owner of Dahlman Oyster Co. was married to Mud Clay's daughter, Virginia. Mud Clay was a widower. Virginia, who had been delivering oysters, became ill and asked her dad to take over the chore. She also suggested that he take her mother-in-law along for company. Leona became Mrs. Mud Clay two and a half years ago. Well-known are Clay's greenhouses where are grown pansies, primroses and fuschias. On the premises of their Spencer Lake home wander flocks of peacocks, 20 or more birds. Two dogs and three Siamese cats are family pets. Leona Clay dropped many of her former organizations when she moved from her former home, but she still retains membership in the Eastern Star in Quilcene. She also belongs to the Pickering Homemakers Club. She was for 14 years employed in the South Kitsap cafeteria, where she started as cook and ended as manager. "I still meet young people who remember me," she states. Many hobbies has Leona. She dyes for bouquets the pampas grass grown in her yard, and she makes her own Christmas decorations from styrofoam bails, studded with sequins, beads, etc.; she makes novelties of felt, ma ny Winners Named North-South winners for the Monday evening meeting of the Shelton Bridge Club were Bruce Kreager and Bill Batchelor, and Ousti Ooldschmid and Doris Christy.

It is entirely untrue that I was last Monday morning sent out into the wet and wicked wilds of the flooded Skokomish Valley armed only with a camera and a rain bonnet. Equally erroneous is the rumor that I was told not to come back without a fish-eye view of the situation. I can't understand how these stories get started. Actually, I was merely asked if I valued my job, and it was suggested that there was no time like the present to learn underwater photography. I most definitely was not told to go jump in the river. I was simply instructed to go down with my shutter clicking, should it come to that. It was requested that I continue with the picture-taking until I surfaced for the third time, at which moment I was to make an attempt to toss the camera ashore. It was emphasized, however, that I wasn't to worry about it. I was assured that no effort would be spared to retrieve the camera.
