read one until you have met Knute
the bullsnake. Terry Toons must
have filched their ideas fl'om this
volume which describes The Whffl- i
ing Whimpus, the Gumberoo, the
Flu-flu bird, and Paul's bird dog,
Skookum. These are wild, wild
animals from the never never land
of pretend, from whence cometh
all tall tales.
"The Davenports and Cherry
Pie" is the story of an elegant
looking poodle which proves him-
self to be quite a dog after all.
"Eddie and tile Fire Engine" by
Haywood has been one of the
most popular books of the year.
Eddie fell in love with an old re-
tired fire engine. This is interest-
ing but no more so than Eddie's
pie eating goat, Gardenia, and his
chum, Anna Patricia, who lost her
teeth.
'For the wee wees, "Tyke, the
Little Mutt" whose illustrations of
Tyke and his dog friends are as
fascinating as the story. In Klem's
"Serene and the Cookie Lady,"
Serene is a wise eat having ac-
quired through her nine lives nine
times more wisdom than anyone
can possibly get in just one short
life time. Read how Serene put
the cookie lady on her feet finan-
cially and started the whole town
munching cookies. It is a sweet
plot.
"The Important Book" by Brown
is for pre-school age. It is beauti-
,fully illustrated.
The December Junior Literary
Guild titles keep up the usual fine
standard for children's reading.
Older boys and girls have ac-
quired the habit of reading mys-
tery str4es ime as their par-
ents. "Ghost' Garnet Lodge" by
Duncombe fills this need for the
girls. This is doubly interesting:
because of its skiing background.
"The Black Stallion and Satan"
by Farley is one mot+e answer to
the eternal question, "Can you
find me a horse story, please?"
"Dig For a Treasure" by Mar-
shali will keep the fourth, fifth
and sixtt grader digging from
page one to the final word.
Grade three and four have a
treat in "Cocolo comes to Ameri-
ca" by Ehrlieh, both in story and
illustration. Cocolo is a steadfast
little donkey who comes to Am-
erica with his master, Lucid. Their
funny and exciting adventures in
finding a happy home in this big
country keep five-to-eight-year-old
leaders and listeners enthralled.
In fact the grown-up who reads
this story to his or her children
won't have any trouble at all in
believing that Cocolo slept in the
bathtub, rode in a taxi, and fell
asleep in the elevator and had to
be carried to the fourteenth floor
of the apartment in New York.
Parents should interest them-
selves in these lists which come
out from time to time. In that
way one can get an idea of the
books which children here and
elsewhere are reading.
CHRISTMAS MUSIC
TO BE BROADCAST
A Christmas Eve musical treat
for the entire Pacific Northwest
has been arranged, presenting the
world-famous Mount Saint Mi-
chaels Choir of Spokane over the
combined facilities of the Ameri-
can Broadcasting Network in
this region.
The program is sponsored by
the Seattle-First National Bank
in behalf of its 47 banking offices
covering the State of Washington,
as its contribution to the Christ-
mas spirit.
The choir will be heard on
Christmas Eve from 8:30 to 9
p.m. over stations KGA, Spokane;
K JR, Seattle; KEX, Portland;
KPQ, Wenatchee; KWWB, Walls
Walla; and KPKW, Pasco.
The choir will sing a program
of time honored and modern
Christmas music. Their outstand-
ing arrangements, excellent sing-
ing voices and capable leadership
have brought recognition to the
group as one of the foremost male
choruses of the World.
with holly on red and green run-
ing picture. Mrs. E. C. Williams
and Mrs. Guy Kneeland, social
committee chairmen, had many
helpers, including the Lew Evans
iamily, Mrs. Emma Prusia, Miss
Virginia Prusia, Mrs. Bob Moffett,
Mrs. Agnes Jackson, Mrs. Mary
James and others.
EMMET WILLIAMS installed
and decorated the Christmas tree,
with some assistance from his
daughters. Miss Prusia made the
window wreaths.
Following supper Ed Haskell
from the Liliiwaup care showed
movies, a Mickey Mouse comedy
and a Red Skelton picture, which
1)roved entertaining to grown-ups
and children.
Then "Mrs. Santa Claus" took
the spotlight. Santa's spouse, tak-
ing over his job of distributing
Rifts, was played by Mrs. Emma
Prusia. She wore a costume, v¢ith
plen<y of white fur trim on the
black top and the long red skirt.
Each child received a gift from
the tree and a sack of candy, nuts
and oranges. Records fm'nished
music for" the party.
THIS IS A BUSY week for ev-
cryone. Many Lilliw-aup residents
find that our native greens make
the best gift packages to send
their friends and relatives in the
East and in California. Every bit
of holly and spray of cedar and
other evergreens is treasured by
the recipients and shared with
their neighbor's.
Mrs. Josie Peterson made a
mantel decoration for ,a friend to
send away for Christmas and used
16 different varieties of greenery.

Around 1928 Jim Marshall, then
a newspaper editor' who wrote
verse in his spare time, turned oat
these lines in apoem called "Pard-
ners" :
"When I strolls up north of Yesler
In my mackinaw and calks,
I ('.an lamp the dames a-flouncin'
As my boots squeak on the
walks.
"An' I sees some soft-eyed cutie
Trippln' by in every block .....
Hell, I cut the blasted timber
For the rayon in her frock!
"When I'm out among the round
stuff
And the crosscut's singin' true,
Till I stop to take a chew.
"Oh, it's then my mind goes
strayin'
To the ladies and their airs,
And I'm proud I fell the hemlocks
For them flossy socks they
wears . .. "
That was the stuff. Advertising
had made the logger conscious of
the end use of the. product of his
toil, the hemlock log. And now
such consciousness is b e i n g i
aroused at last by advertising
plain lumber. , • •
What the modern-minded West
Coast sawmill men are bunching
up on nowadays is not only the
)roduction of a rnovie in Holly-
wood colors but a stack of maga-
zine advertising and promotional
booklets in the same eye-cat(.,hing
greens, blue, yellows and reds.

Magnusen to secure federal help

rice ah'eady has taken steps to

A. L. Ward, county engineer,
