HARSTINE - The Hall will
be the scene of the beginning of
the Holiday festivities here on the
Island today as the Women's Club
gathers laden with oodles of
good food and to enjoy the labors
of their handy work. As is
traditional all the women on the
Island are extended to contact the
food committee for what to bring
and come with a $1 exchange gift
and join the gals for the Christmas
party.
And if today (Thursday) is
the dessert then Tuesday of this
week must be the whip cream.
For most of the gals agree that
while the decorating does
take some effort it really is about
the most fun of all. This year the
gals decided (and did) purchase
lights for the tree after having
borrowed lights in past years. And
the ones that were borrowed from
Wayne Browning last year made
such a big difference in the overall
effect that the membership
decided it really would be worth
the small added expense to have
lights of their own.
Following the Women's Club's
Thursday Christmas Party the
Community Club will have theirs
on Saturday night rather than the
usual Friday evening for
December only. This year the
club has decided to add a gift
exchange to add to the fun and
festivities of the holiday.
Then on Wednesday of next
week the Grangers will enjoy the
holiday atmosphere of the Hall
for their regular meeting
preceeded by a simple pot luck
Gladys Anderson have had a
Hobby Shop on Cota Street in
Shelton specializing in items that
would appeal to rock hounds for
about the past year. One day last
month Beulah and John
Hitchcock, who are enthusisatic
rock hounds were browsing
around the shop and in their
conversation mentioned they
lived on Harstine Island. The
owner of the shop said they used
to know a friend that had riven on
the Island when he was a boy and
mentioned the name of Gene
Seward. And it wouldn't take
much of a super sleuth to figure
how the old friends got together
again after all these years.
Helen Lammers held a card
party at her home last Saturday
evening in honor of her cousin,
Gene Seward's birthday. Fourteen
guests were present for the happy
get-together.
Also heard a few of the
highlights of her recent trip to the
sunny south with the Seward's
son, Dick and his wife, Marlene,
They encountered bad weather all
the way into Sacramento and it
didn't improve until they reached
the Mojave desert. Most of their
time was spent in Arizona around
Wickenburg which is a little
northeast of Phoenix• They
prowled the mountains in and
around that area hunting for
rocks. At one old mine they
picked up some copper ore.
While talking to Irvie and
Hilma Wingert we learned that
their part-time neighbors, the
Archie Doolittles were on the
Island recently after they, too,
rl
as
Adams spent the long weekend on
the Island.
The Ted Nesses recently had a
note from the Andy Anderson
family from way-points in Old
Mexico saying they are really
having a glorious time. At that
writing they had their camper
parked just about 100 feet from a
delighfully warm lake. They
planned to go on further south.
And apparently have altered their
original plans a bit, as they had
said when they left they'd
probably be back around the first
part of December. But Elsie
reported their letter said, 'see
sometime after the first of the
year'.
The John Budds enjoyed
having their daughter-in-law
Vivian Achziger spend about a
week with them recently. While
she was here several of the gals in
the neighborhood got her to do
their hair up for the coming
holidays. She returned home to
Vancouver last Friday.
The Everett Simons took a
two day trip up to Port Angeles.
Their primary reason for the trip
was business. However, they also
called on a number of good
friends they had made during the
years when Everett worked in
that town.
Lila Peugh's niece, Cleo
Seiners and her husband, and four
youngsters drove down from
Seattle last Sunday afternoon to
cut one of their own trees from
their ten acres here on the Island.
They dropped in to say 'Hi' to the
Peughs befroe they left the Island.
Several Islanders attended
les
together at tile Park next summer.
A retired Army Sergeant he was
born in Tennessee in 1917 and is
survived by his wife, Eileen a
nurse at St. Peter's in Olympia.
Although he had had some heart
trouble his untimely death came
as a tremendous shock to his
friends here and they extend their
heartfelt sympathy to Dan's wife,
Eileen.
That tremendous wind we had
a week ago Wednesday sure raised
havoc down at the Chuck Bridges
home. It blew off a big chunk of
roofing and giving Chuck and
Mirja an unexpected shower
about 2 a.m. Besides rinsing
everything in the room tile water
seeped through the floor which
didn't do a thing for Mirja's
recent paint job in the living room
downstairs.
This past weekend another
storm hit and although Chuck
made some repairs on the roof
this past weekend's storm told
them a few more were still
needed. Mirja's cousin, Carol
Martinez and her husband, Marty
and their youngsters joined the
Bridges over the weekend.
And speaking of Mirja, she's
only about 63 per cent here these
days. Now before you readers
jump to any conclusions and
think she'll prc" ,~;, have her
lawyers lined up reaay to sue this
writer, it's really true. About ten
months ago Mirja joined the
Weight Watchers Club. And since
that time she has lost between 80
and 90 pounds and received her
pin for attaining her goal• And
since she received her pin about a
dinner, had been on a trip to the sunny Christmas Shows this past month ago Mirja has shed a few

out of the way and went on with
his job. A shorl time later he
walked over to the County car to
get another tool. He discovered
the deer busily investigating the
backseat of the car. He tried to
coax the animal out of the car.
When that didn't work he walked
around the car and opened the
other door and gave the deer a
gentle but firm shove. While he
went back around to close the
first door the deer crawled right
back in the same door she'd just
been shoved out! The two men
finally managed to get back to the
Shop, without said deer. But
when the head of this house came
home that same night and told
the story to his family the
youngsters promptly wanted to
know why Dad didn't bring the
deer home. He explained first of
all it probably was somebody's
pet and it wouldn't be right to
take another person's pet
anymore than they would want
someone else to take any of their
pets. And second, the dee~" we
have around here may not be pets
