ter so much about Lisabeula and
Cove and Dockton. but know two
men right here who said they would
subscribe for the paper and send in
an ad two times a month If the
editor would mention their names
once in a while.
You tell her. Mr.. Printer, in
gentle way, about this:
A man said the other day he be-
lieyed he would advertise in her
paper for a pair of spy glasses so he
could use them to figure out If some
OF the young folks. who go in the

Bank the Burton Bank part of the
time. like they call Mount Rainier
Mount Tacoma, and you know your
self that the vashon Bank is
nearer Burton than Mt. Rainier is to
Tacoma. And don't we all--after we
have sold our eggs and berries and
fish--put our money in Vashon-Bur-

DEMON FLAMES DEyOURS
CHARLES ENGLAND HOME

Last Friday, between u and l o'clock
the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
England on the Swastika road, one
half mile north Of Vashon, was totally
destroyed by fire, together with some
Of its contents.
The residence building. owned by
Mrs. Susan Mclean Heartburn of Sc
attle, was one of the largest and most
beautiful on the Island, and had been
occupied by Mr. and Mrs. England and
son for the past three years.
The fire is thought to have originat-
ed from a defective flue Neighbors
first saw the smoke rolling from the
roof, and gave the alarm through the
telephone central office Those who
responded to the alarm, on their arrival
found the rear side above the kitchen
all in flames, and hopelessly beyond
control. Leland England, the son, was
alone in the house and unaware OF the
fire until neighbors and many from
Vashon came to move the furniture.
AL Of the furniture, except stoves
from the ground floor was saved, but
all the beds. clothing. and other be-
longings of the Englands, on the sec
ond floor could not be reached and
were destroyed. The furniture was
partially insured, Mr.. England informs
US.
1t might be said that this residence
was an old land mark on the Island.
1t was built by Miss Susan Mclean
about 25 years ago. And while some
what out OF style. it was admired for
its beauty and the magnificent land
scape surrounding it.
While the property loss to Mr.. and
Mrs England was not Of distressing
nature, the fire leaves an unfortunate
circumstance. 1t leaves them without
a home and with housing problem
Just at time when Mr.. England's at
.ention is being directed on the in
creasing business Of his firm and i'm
portant civic matters. Mr. England
is president OF the VaShon Island Com
mercial Club. president Of the Feed
Dealers Association of Washington, and
one of the members of the firm OF
England g. Petersen. His time would
seem more than consumed in the af-
fairs of these institutions. He is one
of the most able and effective boosters
for the Island.
Mr.. and Mrs England are now oc-
cupying the Vashon home of Mr.. and
Mrs Alex Petersen Mr.. England may
decide to build residence when bust
ness affairs are cleared up enough to
permit his attention to It.
Again the Vashon fire truck rem
dered valuable service. Had it not been
for the effective work OF the fire truck
all of the houses in the gulch would
have been destroyed from grass and
brush fires started by the England
home fire. The truck responded to the
call in due time. and wet down the
grass around the burning building and
prevented its spreading throughout

operation has done and is doing. We
have adopted the slogan, Where our
emblem goes the community grows. I"
This is SO true that our members
have accepted it as an article of
faith. and Faith the good book says
brings its rewards, this faith in our
selves. in our officers has made our
association an outstanding egg mar
ket association.
We do not assume nor do we say
our association is a get-rich quick
scheme, it takes time for its mem
bers to become acquainted with the
benefits derived through co-opera-
ton AS far as vision can carry us
barring unforeseen emergencies
these benefits are assured. BY deal
ing honestly. and standing square
ly with its members the merchants
and consumers we feel we have put
the poultry industry in healthy, ac
tive prosperous condition through
out Western Washington We claim
we have stabilized the industry and
an agency which attempts and sue
ceeds in accomplishing something
worth while for the farmer certainly
deserves support.
Our association has stood the acid
test for a number OF years and poul-
try people generally are recognizing
its value it is evidenced by so many
joining our ranks.
At any meeting of poultry people
the keynote of conversation is CO.
operation, the spirit which is re-
quired to cooperate may be slow in
sinking in, but by using common
sense and reasoning how useless it is
to try to operate alone in this ad-
vanced age the advantage of CO.
operation will become apparent. Our
Coop Association is a market
ing service of the poultry man. Tor
the poultry man, we are sticking to
our job, We are spreading out and
obtaining new markets all over the
world.
Viewed from any standpoint the
conclusion must be that We. without
state or government aid have proved
that cooperation is manifestly the
remedy for many of our farm
troubles Contributed.

There is a way Of overcoming the

is how you can PROVE 1t.
The next time your bowels need
