WATER SYSTEM ON CAPITAL
HILL NOW COMPLETE

The following clipping, telling
Of work being done at Shelton will
be of interest to Mr.. Slater's many
friends on the Island.
Due to his efficient work the
residents of Colvas and Vashon
have daily reason for feeling
kindly toward Mr.. Slater, as it
was his care in installation that
makes a constant supply of water
possible.
ID. p. Slater, water works con-
tractor of Salem, Oregon, has COM
pleted the installation of a mod
ern water system for the Crystal
Springs Water Co. on Capital Hill,
which is planning to supply some
fifty homes in that district, and
out of reach of the city system.
The company was recently incor-
poratcd by Preston Armstrong and
the plant is sufficiently large to
care for all needs. In includes
l2,0n0 feet of steel pipe line, the
mains being 5 and one-half inches,
and the laterals and supply lines
to fit the needs of service; dam
and electric pumps at the spring
with a 200 gallon minute cap
acity, and tank of 10000 gallon
capacity elevated to the highest
point in the district. The system
supplies the need for both water
and fire protection in the Capital
Hill district and according to Con-
tractor Slater will give the homes
o real service.-Mason County

happenings, has taken place il

closed deal whereby he acquired
two acres of land from G. w. Blek-
king. On it he will later build a
fine modern home. The property is
part of the large lot just south OF
the Blekkink home, fronting on

of lovely evergreens stand. There
is no more desirable residence
property in Vashon than that
which Mr.. Price has been fortunate
enough to acquire, aud we hope
that he will build his new home
very soon, for the Prices are the
type that any community would be
glad to welcome.

THE cow AND THE RADIO

Those friends who laugh at Tim 5

stantiates his far-reaching theory
about the effect of music on the
milk flow of bessie.
The following is from the P. |,

CENTRAIIA, Dee, 27.-Cows
take well to radio music and the
daily dozen, Antoine Kiechle,
dairyman of Nisqually, reports. A
heavy increase in milk production
for December over November is
noted since he installed a radio in
his barn
Kiechle, in reporting his added
profits to r. G. Welch, assistant
Thurston County agent, stated
that the cows timber up each
morning to the tunes of the daily
dozen and enjoy the shaking of a
wicked hoof" each evening to
the melodies Of a Hollywood Jazz
orchestra. No sickness bothers
the Kiechle herd, he says, since the
radio was installed.

In other years he talked on art
And modern novel chat;
On history, geography,
And other things like that,
But he has changed his line o
thought,
And now he spends his time
Discoursing earnestly and well
On oyster shells and lime.
His science talk is proper feeds
His books are all on hens,
His history is Plymouth Rock
His art is coops and pens
Rhode Island Reds the hue HI
loves.
His songs are tuneful lays.
And happy is the man who
caught
The modern poultry craze.

GEO. SHIELDS
Is PROJECTED

A promition that was not at all
a surprise to his friends came to
Geo. Shields for Christmas gift.
Mr.. Shields has been employed
In the maintenance department of
the Pacific Telegraph and Tele-
phone Co. for the past nine years
and i'll that time efficiency has
been the marked characteristic of
his service to his employees.
On Tuesday he left for Spokane
where he will be maintenance su-
pervisor for all of eastern Wash
ington, His headquarters will be
in Spokane, histerritory extending
south to Walla Walla, west to va
ina, north and east to the border
of the state,
While the community rejoices
with Mr.. Shields in his promotion
we appreciate the fact that
his going will leave a mighty big
vacancy in our Island affairs.
In the few years since his mar
riage and the establishment of a
home here, Mr. Shields has be-
come identified not only with the
various Masonic orders but with
the Commercial and Community
clubs, as well, His unfailing wit
and readiness of speech and serv-
ice have saved the situation num-
berless times.
We feel keenly that what is
Spokane's gain is our great loss.
just as greatly will we miss
Mrs. Shields, who has grown up
on the Island. 1t is impossible to
describe her value to the commu-
nifty, first as Helen Hansen, later
as Mrs. Shields. Just at present
her greatest activity is the small
son, George Therkel. She will
leave for the new home about the
middle of this month.
We wish these friends and
neighbors all possible success and
happiness in their new surround
ings.
