It is to be available sometime after the first of the year. Up until that time (the day the books actually arrive), there is a continous presale in progress. Prior to the arrival of the books, the price is $3.50 plus 75 cents postage. The day the books arrive here on the island, the price goes up to $4.50 plus 75 cents postage.

Time of the potluck is 6:30 p.m. and the meeting is 7 p.m. This past week the island folks were saddened by the lost of yet another one of the old-timers, Arlo Wingert. At the time of his' death last Tuesday evening, he and his wife were making their home with their oldest daughter, Lena Tober and her husband, Norm and children. However, Arlo had been hospitalized for a time prior to his death and was still in the hospital Tuesday. Ado was born in Vaughn, November 13, 1894, the second oldest of four children, to Jake and Rose Wingert who were later to become some of the very earliest of homesteaders here on the island. Arlo had an older brother, Arthur, who also made his home on the island, a younger sister who lived in California for many years before moving to the island and the youngest brother, Irv, who also has lived on the island most of his life. When the family moved to their home here on the island, located at Jarreli's Cove, the children attended school by rowing around the cove to same location where the present school building is (now a private home). After graduation, he attended an agricultural college in Oregon. And for a time he lived with relatives in California and worked on a wheat ranch. June 21, 1934 he and Katherine Evans were married. Her mother was a cook at the Ballow logging camp where Ado was working, along with Arlo's brother, Art, and Katherine's dad, too. For a time after they were married, Ario and Katherine lived at Vaughn. Later they built their present home and moved back to the island. The couple have three children, Lena Tober, Vera Pelzel of Tacoma and son, Lewis Wingert of Seattle. For the past year or so since Arlo has been in especially poor health, he and Katherine have been living with Lena and her family in Lynnwood and have rented their home here on the island. A graveside funeral was held last Thursday afternoon at the cemetery here on the island, with Pastor Mason Younglund officiating with a large group of family and friends present. Afterwards, the island gals furnished and prepared a luncheon at the Community Hall for everyone.
