ADM1REs ISLAND APPLE TREES.

On Saturday evening Mrs. j. W.
Roberts had as dinner guests her son
and daughter, of Seattle, and Mr..
Chas. Waite, of Honolulu. Mr.. Waite
was born and grew up in the Islands,
but his business now brings him fire.
quently to the Pacific Coast.
While enjoying the beauties of Mrs.
Roberts garden Mr.. Waite was most
interested in her winter lannan apple
trees which are truly beautiful sight.
He remarked that this was the first
time he had ever seen at close range
an apple tree bearing fruit, and was
delighted with its beauty. 1t seems
hard to realize that there are no
apples grown on the Hawaiian Islands,
and that anything as common to us
as an apple tree in fruit could be an
object of interest to a mature person

Science Lecture
Well Attended

The lecture on Sunday afternoon by
Paul Seeley on Christian Science, the
Solution of Human Problems" was
we'll attended, the auditorium of the
high school being practically filled.
This is the first lecture of public
nature that has been spl Hsored by the
Island Christian Science Society, and
the people of the community took adj
vantage of the opportunity in such a
manner that the public interest wa,
undeniably evident.
The local society is composed almost
entirely of women so the staff OF
ushers of the Seventh Church G. S. OF
Seattle offered their services for the
afternoon. There were also con-
siderable number of other Seattle
people interested in the work of the
Island society who came over to at
tend the lecture by Mr.. Seeley.
At the invitation of Mrs. John w
Roberts, member of the Seventh
Church, the staff of ushers, their wive!
and friends, in all party of twenty
five, enjoyed a picnic dinner Sunda!

LOCAL DISTRIBUTOR FOR
KRIsTOFERSON PRODUCTS

This weeks issue carries the an
nouncement by Arnold Nelson that he
Is the Island distributor for the Kristo-
ferson dairy products.
Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson, with their son,
came to Vashon Island some months
ago, and fell so completely in love With
it that they bought home at Sylvan
Beach. Mr.. Nelson for time con-
tinued his connections with a Seattle
sign company but gave up this work
SO he could spend all of his time here.
For q while he distributed the local
bakerys products but decided that
there was greater opportunity in the
business he has now taken up.
With the reputation of Kristofer-
sons products so well known, Mr..
Nelson feels that with hard work and
ain honest desire to serve the Island
people, he can build up a business
that will make possible his desire to
remain on the Island.

YOUNG HUNTER ARRIVES HOME

Bobby Wilber of Paradise Valley,
who has been spending the past winter
with his sister, Mrs. Gladys Douglas,
at Seward, Alaska, arrived home
THURSDAY evening, after an absence
from the Island of almost year.
Although only eleven years OF age
Bobby has had some very thrilling ex-
periences in Alaska. He spent some
time on an island with a party of
trappers, and in addition to number
of fine furs which he himself trapped,
brought back as gift for his mother
the skin of bear he shot.
Last winter the News-Record pub
lished letter written by Bobby that
would have been credit to a high
school graduate, and showed that he
not only possesses proves as a great
hunter but also the ability to xpress
himself on paper. a little later, when
the youngster has had time to get
down to the commonplace life on
Vashon Island we are going to see If
he can be persuaded to write another
article for the News-Record.

OUR BooTLEGGER IS LOCATED.

Last week we were puzzled by the
disappearance from her customary
corner of the bootlegger who weekly
dispenses Intoxicating facts concern
ing interior decorating" as well as
bits of rare wit along other lines. The
mystery was solved when we learned
that she had not permanently gone
out of business, but is enjoying a
much needed change and is finding
it in California, along with two other
friends. (She will get rest after she
returns).
On Monday the office force received
a card from the young lady written
from 1000 miles from S. F. in the
woods, saying that she was enjoying
a large time, and that she and her
two companions were at q hotel big
enough to hold 500 guests out in the
woods and not another guest register
ed. Fortunately one of her friends
bears the name of Pete" has a boy
ish bob and wears trousers, so that
they all felt they would be reasonably
safe until the end of the trip.
She will arrive home next Saturday
barring anything unexpected, and we
shall welcome her with open arms.

FARMERS ENJOY PICNIC

Some fifty or seventy-five people en-
joyed the excellent dinner and good
time provided at the joint picnic of
the local branch of the Washington
Coop and the Fruit Growers Associ-
alton held last Saturday afternoon at
Ellisport. A number of the officials
of the Puyallup and Sumner Fruit
Growers Association were present for
the occasion. Several OF the visitors
spoke at the conclusion of the dinner.
An interesting feature of the after
noon was talk by Arthur Crewes, of
Cedar Falls, who told of his expert
ences in the east, particularly in the
national capital, where he went as a
representative of the King county All
clubs.
After the program there were races
for the children. and good, old-fash-
Toned visiting among their elders. The
entire occasion was enjoyable, just
one of those get-togethers with neigh
bors that carry the older people back
to their childhood days, and that leave
wholesome, enjoyable memories in the
minds of the youngsters.

Lack OF Barriicade
Results In Accident

Lack of proper barricades on the
old Cove road resulted in an accident
Sunday afternoon that might have
been more serious than it proved to
be. A summer resident. by the name
of Haugen, was driving north on the
new road, and wishing to go up the
hill back of the Cove Methodist
church turned on the old road in front
of the Ramquist place. It is not hard
to see that this road no longer con-
tinues up the hill, but 1t is almost i'm
possible to see from below the deep
ditch left by the slide that occurred
from the excavations for the new
road farther down. The whole thing
was one of those affairs that no one,
including the driver can figure out,
but the net result was that the Buick
touring car that the young man was
driving, with his two charming young
lady companions took a nose dive into
space, and landed with its front on
solid ground at the bottom of the
chasm and one wheel still resting on
what used to be the old road.
The Met-Cro wrecker had some
difficulty in extricating the car from
the position it was in, but finally sue
ceeded. This is the second accident
this same car and driver has had on
the Island, it is reported.
Needless to say the road will be
properly barricaded in the future SO
that there will be no possibility Of any
driver, young or old, mistaking the
course.

EDITORIAL

In the Christian Science Monitor re-
Gently appeared an editorial which
strikes closely home to patrons and
pupils Of our Island schools. We re-
greet that space alone prevents our
copying the entire article.
The subject is Music Plan for
Rural Schools, and outlines plan
that could with minimum Of expense
be worked out in our Island schools,
Here as elsewhere pupils leaving our
schools are handicapped by lack Of
instruction In grammar school music.
In all other subjects they may be well
prepared And 1t cannot be denied
that our Island children as whole
are well taught but there is woeful
lack of musical instruction among our
children.
The plan outlined In this editorial
suggests that the rural schools of an
entire district could by the expendi-
ture of few dollars each month en-
ploy the services of competent
musical instructor who would give
each school part of her time, just as
the supervisors in the city go about
from school to school. We discuss
manners in which the Island can be
unified; all admit that it will come
about through our children, and is
there any greater medium than music
to accomplish this end?
Last year the Center district tried
an experiment that obtained wonder
full results. 1t was popularity supposed
that the pupils of Center were devoid
of the ability to sing. The chances
are that they had been told they
could not sing until they themselves
believed it. A member of the board
laughed at Mrs. Anna v. Lesh, Of
Ellisport, when she said she could
teach those youngsters to sing. To
make a long story short in a few
weeks children supposed to be tone
deaf were carrying tune. In May
the Center pupils gave a remarkably

Old Dock Presents
Unsishtly Appearance

Much unfavorable comment is being
aroused by the unsightly appearance
of the old dock at the North End. The
span has been removed, the roof torn
off of the old store, other parts have
been removed, with the net result that
the entire structure mars the land
scape. Comparison with the new dock,
OF which we are so justly proud only
makes matters worse.
Rome wasn't built in day, so it is
probably wrong to wish that we could
be rid of the old dock, now that we
have the new. 1t is rumored that the
lumber is to be given to local or
ganization for some much needed con-
struction work. so let's all hope that
it will be speedily removed, and all
traces made way with.
In the old days bees (not the kind
that sting used to be popular. We
offer the suggestion that the Com
mercial Club have dock razing bee.
Properly CARRIED in bathing suits for
emergencies, and armed with wreck
ing bars, axes and saws much could
be accomplished in day. There isn't
a doubt in the world that the ladies
would furnish the necessary food.
(And if the men don't get busy there
is chance that some of those capable
Island women may show them up and
do the work themselves).
