Slightly over the half-way mark
at yesterday's press-time, the 1966'
Christmas Fund has only a little
over a week in which to hit its
$1,000 goal.
The figure stood at $527.44 at
noon Wednesday.
With 80 or more Christmas bas-
kets anticipa.ted as the needs for
providing Christmas cheer in Ma-
son County's deserving needy
homes, the'cost of carrying out
this year's 40&8-Journal joint
Christmas project is estimated at
easily the $1,060 at which the goal
has i~een set.
So come on wiLt1 those contri-
butions, generous people of Mason
County. Send or bring your money
to Th'e Journal for a(:knowledge.-
men( in these colunms, although if
yon wish to give m~onymously you
are guaranteed that l~rivflege.

A.odation
With a gmme and a president
now officially chosen, the 1966 Ma-
son County Forest Festival is set
[ to start the wheels rolling for its
22nd annual production next May.
These two key matters were
aLtcn(!ed to aL a hmcheon meeting
last Thursday, when: festival as:
sociation officers decided to key
next year's festival theme to the
25th anniversary of the start of
the tree farm movement.
Another hurdle which has slow-
ed down action on next year's fes-
tival was removed when Clive Troy
agreed to continue for one more
year as associatibn president. He
had a~ked to be replaced after ser-
ving in that capacity for the past
five years, but a cmnmittee seek-
in~ a capable replacement was un-
able to do so after long, hard
searching.
TROY AGREED to continue for
another year, and cancelled plans
for a trip early next year so he
can get plans into action for the
1966 fcstival.
At .the same meeting last week
a contract with Evergreen Show.,
to provide rides and other amuse-
men( devices during Forest Festi-
val Week was approved. This is
the same firm as h~',~ brought the
amusement concessions to thc fes-
tiwtl for several years.
Plans to revise the Festival As-
sociation executive committee, pro-
riding for specific te,'ms of office
anti possibly increasing it from
five to six menrbcrs, were also re-
viewed.
The next general meeting" of
Forest Festival committee chair-
men and officers was tentatively
set for Jan. 27.
Body Of Former
She/ton Man

lh
The body of Wi "am O. Dennis,
21, a former Shelton resident, who
drowned in Gibbs Lake in Jeffer-
son County had still not been re-
covered at Journal press time Wed-
nesday.
.Dennis drowned in the lake wlfile
,duck hunting Dec. 5. Jefferson
i County authorities have been sear-
ching'the lake for his body with
no success.
Dennis was born in Shelton, the
son of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Dennis.
The family moved to Port Town-
send when Dennis was a junior in
high school.
The family last week said it
plans to have funeral services and
burial in Shelton when the body
is recovered.
MEETING DATE CHANGED
Because the re,~ular date would
come on Christmas Eve, the De-
cember meeting of IWA Local 38
has been moved up a week and
will he held this Friday night, Dec.
17, instead of Dec. 24, secretary
Earl Jagnow announced ycster-
I day.
Tire Shelton School Board Tues-
day night voted to send a letter
to Robert Duly, who was hired as
school psychologist last fall, but,
only worked for the dist~qct three
days, that it is the board'e posi-
tion that Daly quit when he left
Shelton Sept. 16.
Daly was hired as school psycho-
logist slm~tly before the:start of
school last fall and started Work
Sept. 8, 9, and 10. He left Shel-
ton for the weekend and did not
return until Sept. 16.
After a meeting with former
Supt. Robert Quiggle the day he
returned, he checked in the equip-
ment he had been issued and left
and did not return.
Sever,al letters exclmnged.'be-
tween Daly and Quiggle are, in
the file at the school concerning
the possibility of Daly's returnto
the district.
After reviewing the file in a
lengthy executive session Tuesday
night, the board agreed to write
Daly it appeared he had quit his
job with the district when he left
Sept. 16.
THE BOARD VOTED t0 gix~e
the administration authority to set
school hours as they work out best
with bus sch~l.,ules.
The action
came after the board received a
letter flora Don Brown, principal
of Mr. View School asking ,per-
mission to start classes at 8:45
i instead of 9 a.m. since pupfi~ had
to be let out at 3 p.m. ifl order
to catch busses. •
The board, on the recommenda-
tion of the Leadership Council,
voted to deny the Teen Focus Club
the use of a room in the high•
school from 8:10 to 8:40 a.m. once
a week. The action was taken on
. the basis that since the group was

From The Ministers
By REV. LEWIS B. WYSONG
There is so much noise and tur-
moil, hustling and scurrying with
Christntas traffic that we feel we
should take thne to listen again
to the gentle cry of a Babe--the
babe of Bethlehem, His cry was
not heard by those of the world:
Herod heard about it, hut did not
hear it himself; Caesar, sitting
upon his throne of Rome did not
hear it; surprisingly thc Priests,
Scribes and Pharisees could not
:~ear the cry; even the guests in
the inn who were just a few short
~teps away did not hear. Why did
not these hear the cry of thc
babe? The), were not listening for
it. They were uninterested.
multitude of sounds :around us at
Christmastime deafen our ears to
the w)ice of the Cl~rist.
These two groups represented
different races. The shepherds
were Jews; the Magi wm:e f01'"
eigncrs. The shepherds considei'ed
the Child the promised Messiah
and to, the others He was:'Lhe
King. Each found in Hint new hope
and deliverance. ,'
What does the birth of the Babe
mean to you , . . and what can
ltappen in your life as you listen
to His cry ? ? ?
Mattircw 1:22, 23 tells us that
the coming of Christ will have
two effects upoIl yOU which is
shown in the two names ffiven to
Him. The first namc is "Jesus",
which means "Saviour". This
means salvation for all. God sent
His Son to seek us out and re-
deem us from our sins. %Vc (lid not

~Kreger said studies by thd com-
mittee so far indicate the district
sch~N ~poPul~tion.has ~been ~,~.~e~s-
ing about three elassrC~rhS a year
and that at present six additional
classrooms would be needed to
meet state standards for all pup-
ils.
The studies have also indicated
that considerable remod.eling or
replacement was needed of the OldF
Bordeaux building and the Junior
High building. . .
The thing which is needed most,
Kreger said, is the development
of a plan of the needs of the dis(-
rict and then to fit any bulling
program to the needs.
IWA Local 3-38 will hold its
