Mrs. Grace McGrady, of New Islan Groups Ion By CARMEN YATES 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.

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.
