METHODIST LADIES IN
READINESS FOR DINNER
FRIDAY EVENING

Plans are complete for both dinner
and program being planned by the
Service Guild of the vashon Methodist
church for this (Friday) evening, Oc-
tober 10th.
For those who have forgotten the
menu, price and other details we call
your attention to the advertisement
on another page.
N The dinner will be served, beginning
- a. $50 and continuing until $3.50
Following will be program of I'M
usual merit that will be worth the
price being charged for the dinner
alone. This will be an unusually fine
opening for the activities of the
winter, and judging from the sale Of
tickets and the interest being shown
the only doubt the ladies have is
whether there are enough hams or
vashon Island TO feed as many as
have evidenced their interest.
However, the Methodist ladies have
made such a reputation for themselves
when It comes to serving wonderful
dinners that the Island people have
little fear that there will not be fooc
enough for all, Some of the most de.
llghtful church affairs ever given OF
the Island have been In charge Of tht
committee responsible for the dinner
on Friday night

vashon High Ties
With Slverdale

The Vashon high school football
eleven played to an 90 tie witt
Silverdale's squad last Friday. 1t wa!
very even game through out. Neither
team had any appreciable advantage
except in the closing moments Of thu
game, when several long gains were
made by Vashon. The teams gave al
they had, and the result was a hare
fight all the way. One thing marked
the game, the poor officiating. Several
times attractions were made that were
important, but the referee refused tc
call them or didn't see them. The
Vashon line did much better block
ing than in the Port Orchard fracas
and when they get a little more ex-
perience they will do good work.
The vashon lineup was as follows:
Yurioko. re; Mattson, rt; Brammer
rg; Morris, C; Galloway, lg; Curtis
lie; Wilbur lie; F. Matsumoto, oh; D.
Matsumoto, In; Green, rh; Schmidt
rb. Substitutions: Hendrickson for
p. Matsumoto; Fuller for Schmidt;
,pettelle for D. Matsumoto; Church
for Brammer.
Next Friday vashon plays Balm
bridge at cambridge. The S. S. Verona
will make the trip and will take the
Vashon student body, and others who
care to make the trip.
On next Wednesday afternoon, Oc-
tober 81, the second home game will
be played on the high school grounds
when the local team meets the strong
aggregation from Poulsbo high. This
promises to be a hard fought game,
and 1t is expected that large crowd
will be in attendance.

Haury Island
Woman Dies

Death claimed another pioneer wo-
man on last Monday when Mrs. A. d.
Kingsbury fell quietly asleep, at rest
after long and useful life of more
than 81 years. Although she had been
gradually failing for the past two
months there was apparently no indi-
cation that her time on earth was
short, and the passing of Mrs. Kings
bury came as a great blow to her
family and friends
Sarah Elizabeth Vessey was born in
Wisconsin, September IA, 1850. She
grew up and was educated in the
Middle West, marrying January IA,
1871, A, D. Kingsbury, at Littleton,
Iowa.
Soon after their marriage Mr.. and
Mrs. Kingsbury went to Minnesota
where they acquired considerable
property. A tract of land was plotted
by Mr.. Kingsbury and is now the
town of Egerton. At recent observ-
ance of the fiftieth anniversary of the
founding of Egerton mention was
made of the fact that Frank Kings
bury, the son of Mr.. and Mrs. Kings
bury, was the first white child born
in the town.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kingsbury with their
family came to Maury Island July %,
1888. They purchased the homestead,
and built the home which they owned
and occupied to the end of their lives.
Here Mr., Kingsbury passed away about
two years ago.
Mrs Kingsbury enjoyed the love
and respect of a large circle of friends
and neighbors who knew her for
devoted mother, friend to whom one
could go in time of need, and great
hearted woman who was ever mindful
of the necessity of those less fortunate
than she. Hers is the first death in
the Portage Orthopedic Auxiliary of
which she was one of the most active
members. Work of this nature APP
pealed to Mrs. Kingsbury for it salts
fled her desire for service to the sick
and needy.
She was also a member of the
Vashon-Maury Island Pioneers So
ciety.
Mrs. Kingsbury was the mother of
seven children, five of whom survive
to mourn her loss, Frank, Fred and
Mrs Vessey Veall still live on the old
home place; Mrs. Fannie Davis living
near Astoria, Ore. These four chill
dren were with their mother con-
stantly during her final illness. A
fifth son, George, of Ketchikan,
Alaska, was unable to reach his
mothers side.
Funeral services held Tuesday after
noon from the family home attended
by Borrowing friends and relatives
were conducted by Rev. E. G. Randall.
Mrs. T. B. Allison, for many years a
friend and neighbor, sang Burial was
in Maury cemetery in the family lot.

Much Activity On
Local Golf Course

The ladies' tournament for the Cap
tain's Trophy played off last month
was won by Mrs. w. d. Clark who Is
developing into real golfer. How
ever, she had keen competition all the
way, unless all signs fail several other
ladies will have their names in the
winning column next season.
The tombstone tournament played
September goth, was the last sched-
uled event OF the season anu probably
the most hotly contested In the
mems division Mr.. Flenner and Mr.
Eacchus came to the nineteenth tee
all square and with one stroke each
to play. Mr.. Bacchus won the drive
by a few feet. The ladies' division
also developed into a close contest
Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Coutts being all
square ON the nineteenth tee. Mrs.
Clark won the match on the 2lst
green. Both ladies received suitable
prizes.
A team Of eight journcyed to Enum-
claw Sunday the 3rd, for match
with Enumclaw Golf and Country
Club, at the invitation of our genial
friend Archie McKinnon, our state
representative for this district. Al
though the weather man was a bit
unkind, the match was played In a
driving rain, the team reports having
had wonderful time, and are still
singing the praises of the Enumclaw
club as royal entertainers. The score
by the way, was: Vashon Is 1-2.
Enumclaw 1-2. The Enumclaw club,
however, was not satisfied with the
result anG brought team of thirteen
players TO our course last Sunday and
won the match by the close score of
81 1-2 to 20 IL. They were kind
enough to call it Vashon courtesy.
They brought several ladies with them
and all reported an enjoyable day.
The visitors were entertained by the
local club at dinner at Watseka Lodge,
and after many complimentary re-
marks about our course and hospital
ity, departed on a late ferry. Among
the visitors were, Mr.. McKinnon, E. NJ
Berg, Hannus, Elmer Olson. DR.. Ul-
man, DR.. Ulman, Jr., G. La Fromboise,
Sam La Fromboise, Belander, Vincent
Machliuchi, Madison and Dr.. Ebling.
It is reported that another match
between the two clubs is to be ar
ranged soon, and according to rlmors
the ladies are anxious to join in any
pilgrimage the team makes. The
value of these home and home
matches cannot be over estimated.
They foster a spirit of friendly rivalry
and neighborliness that nothing else
can.
at the last meeting of the trustees,
the board voted to establish temper
arily, an associate membership at a
fee of $50, plus monthly dues and tax.
Such members and their families will
have full playing privileges and the
fee may be applied on a full member
ship at any time before December 81,
1884.
The annual meeting of the club was
held at the Island Club last Saturday
evening and the following officers
were elected: President, E. H. Miller;
vice-president, Neil Flenner; trustees
for three years, H. H. Hansen, A. H.
Petersen and j. A. Lurdstrom.

MI. STROLLER WHITE
 HONOR ID LATE EDITOR

The National Geographic Board, at a meeting in Washington on Oc-
 tober ', gave the name Mount Stroller White" to prominent peak on the northwest side of Menden- hall Glacier, 13 miles from Juneau.
 By this action the Board, which is composed of representatives of all the surveying and mapping or ganizat tions of the Federal govern ment has honored the late E. J. White, able pioneer journalist of Alaska, who was widely and affec- tionately known a Stroller White. 1 The peak which will commem- crate his work in the Territory is the higher and second inland of the two peaks on the northwest side of Mendenhall Valley and Gla- cier, the first being Mt. McGinnis. Its elevation is approximately 5000 feet, according to bulletin of the U. s. Forestry Service.
 Stroller White came north in the gold rush days of 1898 to serve on the staff Of the Skagway News and he lived continuously in Alaska and the Yukon Territory from that date until his death on September 28, 1930 While working on the Daw- son Nugget, he started the "Strol- ler,s Column" and from this he ac- quired the pseudonym by which he was thereafter known. For the 10 years just prior to his death he was the owner and editor of Stroller's Weekly, published at Juneau.
