Another interesting item from ABC headquarters tells of the "impossible" happening in Detroit last month when a member of the Grand Central League knocked the i 3-pin out of the 3-5-6 cluster with- out disturbing the other two sticks.

The only plausible answer is that the bowler's ball must have hooked terrifically, barely nick- ing the 3-pin on the left side and then curving so sharply it missed the 5-pin, But it's one of those achievements as rare in bowling as picking the 7-10 split. * * * Right here at home an odd one pops up occasionally which makes one wonder where either the ball or the other five pins went to reach the pit. Percy Funk with his lefthanded hook gets it morel often than the rest of the town's bowlers put together, and every once-in-a-while he'll get it a cou- ple of. times in the same match. Anyway, its the 4-7-6-9-10 clus- ter, which looks like this and seems to be an "impossible" re- sult: No. 7 No. 9 No. 10 * Reasonable Rates * NO DELAY Mason County Savings & Loan Association Title Insuranoe Bldg.

He does it and still has a night a week free of bowling, too. His schedule is 11 a.m. and 8:30 p.m. Sundays, 9:30 p.m. Monday, 1, 8 and 10 p.m. Tuesdays, 11:30 a.m. and 7:30 a.m. Wednesdays, 7:30 'adn 9:30 p.m. Thursdays, and 10 :p.m. Fridays, leaving Saturday open. • * * :i WHAT'S BECOME OF . . .

Norm Cliflin of McCleary and Carl Sundsten of Morgan-Eacrett each hit ten. McConkey's victory was the thriller of the night, the pharm- acists staging a 12-point spree in the final quarter to overtake Ray- onier's 17-12 third quarter edge.

Many former mem- bers and other friends joined to pymake it a very pleasant and haP'occasion. • A,_  ._ The Allyn Community Sunday School presented a very lovely Christmas program Sunday eve- ning. Rev. Lyle Brasier gave a short Christmas message after which treats were given .to ev- eryone. The Allyn Community Club met on December 10 for their regular monthly meeting and this time they enjoyed a very delicious tur- key dinner. Among other busi- ness, several subjects of interest to the community came up for discussion. New officers for the coming year were nominated but because of the lateness of the hour and the absence of several mem- bers, voting was postponed until the next regular meeting on Jan- uary 14. Jean Uber Of Bremerton spent the past week visiting with Es- ther Woodard. We are glad to have Andrew Daniclson home agaifi after being in the Roosevelt hospital in Brem- erton. The Christmas school program was given last Thursday evening to a pleased audience. The set- ting for the "Christmas Story" was beautiful and the children did marvelously well, The teach- ors, Mrs. Ruth Hawk and Mrs. Della Earthman, deserve much praise for their efforts. Cndy and other treats were given to all the children. iV[aureen, and Jimmie Knight visited with their mother over last week end. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Mero of Montesano visited with Mr. and Mrs. Howard Woodard over the week end.

Going a. step far- ther, we have several winter months still ahead of us, and con- stant vigilance is the price of fire protection. Heating plants and lighting facilities are used to their maximum and may be overloaded. Chimneys may be a .source of trouble. This is the time for the 1 householder, like the business- owner, to learn and strictly apply the simple rules for fire safety. S Mr. and Mrs. Shelton sit around the Christmas tree, with their children and grandchil- dren gathered With them, they can contemplate the year's parade with a spirit of gratefulness for the things that have been received as blessings, and a hope that Santa Claus will be as kindly and boun- tiful to the community next year. For surely this area has enjoyed most of the earth's largess at a time when most of the world is in abject dejection from the Four Horsemen that mark war's after- mth. To this area has been be- stowed the fruits of labor and busi- ness. Our institutions have pro- gressed and prospered and each of us in our way has given individ- ual contribution so that the suffer- ing to others might be lessened. The community and its affairs have gotten along with good rela- tion, no internal squabble has arisen to disrupt or separate spir- itual and civic forces that mean so much to all of us, and the forces of nature have been kindly in that no elemental disaster has visited to bring destruction and suffering to our people. Shelton along with the entire Northwest country lives in a part o£ the world with won- derful endowments of nature, pro- viding natural products for our livelihood and scenes and atmos- phere for our pleasure and enjoy- ment. T is comforting to look to the future when our blessings are considered.
