We are liable to scare him up some

getting tired of continually fighting
with Nicaraguans We always have to
take them on when there is no bigger

to come out of there.
What other scandal we got? Oh yes
Aimee's daughter married the Purser

given at the Burton Community
Church last Sunday evening was an
interesting presentation of some of the
racial difficulties that have to be
faced by not only missionaries on the
field but teachers and students here
at home. The young ladies taking the
several parts, acquitted themselves
creditably and made the lesson of
christian brotherhood very impressive.
A large audience expressed their ap-
probation of the effort Of the young
people. A vocal solo by Mr.. Geo. Gill
more and violin solo by Miss
Dorothy Gilmore, added much to the
program. Burton people are always
glad to welcome workers from the

Seattle Goodwill Industries by appli-
cants for jobs who were willing to
work out the cost of the article in
labor. Many other applicants were
given work in the plant to pay for the
package of groceries which the organ
ization supplied for their immediate
relief, thirty-three per cent of the
men and fifty-four per cent of the
women being married and many with
dependents. The ages of the largest
group of women applicants ranged be-
tween fifty and sixty years, the next
group being between forty and fifty
years of age. Among the men the
largest group ranged between forty
and fifty, the next between twenty
and thirty, and the third between
thirty and forty years. Many of the
elderly we're paid from the relief sub
sidy fund because OF their inability to
work their full capacity. This sub
sldy fund is supplied from membership
in the Goodwill organization. Any
one Wishing to send in old or discard

Vashon State Bank
Celebrates Birthday

This month the Vashon State Bank
is celebrating % years OF operation,
1t is interesting 10 consider the
changes that have taken place In that
length Of time, and gratifying 70
realize the growth that our Island
must have made to justify the in
crease in business the bank has en-
joyed
The Vashon State Bank began bust
ness in 1909. OF the three original
owners two are no longer living. These
three owners and officers were L. W..
Lewis, president; w. B. Shoemaker,
vice-president and T. Hansen, cashier.
Mr.. Lewis, the only remaining men,
Der has now retired and is living on
cambridge Island. His share in the
bank was taken over by L. @. Beall,
Jr. Upon the death of Mr.. Shoemaker
three years ago Almon Ray Smith ac-
quired his interest In the institution.
Mr.. Smith has been attorney for the
bank ever since 1t was organized.
Upon the death of r. Hansen, then
president, his son Howard took the
place of his father.
Under the present management, as
at all times during the past the bank
has been conducted in a conservative,
safe manner, and has developed with
the Island. From the original capital
of $4,000 the present capital has
grown to $4,000. 1t is indeed an in
stitution of which the Island may well
be proud.
