deep homesickness for the New
England states.
"We eventually landed on a
farm there, as even in the 1940s
taxes were high, and we chose to
live for awhile in a rural area,"
lie said. "The place we selected
had several acres, but we had no
intention of working the land. It
wasn't long, however, before we
changed those plans, and it may
have all came about when our
son won a heifer. We stayed
there for 25 years.
"1 remember the grist mill
my grandfather had when I was
a boy. My father worked at the
mill with him, and they would
grind the grain the farmers
brought into exchange for flour.
This same barter system worked
well with the local blacksmith
and other business people. The
mill was known to everyone as
'the Tinkerbell.' " He explained
the name this way, "We tinker
with this, and tinker with that.
"At some time grandfather
had traveled all the way north to
Mount Washington (a long trip in
those days), and bought the first
steam engine (to use for the
mill) that was used to build the
Mount Washington Railroad," he
said.
Since this conversation with
Mr. Smith, who is 84 years
young, he has undergone hip
surgery and is doing just fine.
Their son, Lewis C. Smith, is
assistant fire chief of the Belfair
Fire Department. He and wife,
Cynthia, have two children, Ted
and Karen.

Last year Dittrich traveled
more than 30,000 miles visiting
some 120 high schools in the
state including North Mason.
"Students showed they were
interested in solar energy,
nuclear plant operation and
safety, aspects of oil supply and
the cost of energy," Dittrich
said.
"This year we expect to have
new solar demonstration
equipment to show the
difference between using the sun
as a direct heat source and as a
means ,of producing electricity."
Dittrlcb, a physicist and
former university instructor, last
summer visited a solar power
institute and various energy
