Frank Fuller To
Open New Garage

On Saturday the new garage now
nearing completion at the Fuller Ser
vice Station will be opened for busi-
ness under the capable management
Of Clyde Smith, better known to a
wide circle of friends as Bud"
Mr.. Smith, during the past six years
has made many friends on the Island
who will be interested in the fact that
he Is now completely in charge Of the
new garage. He Is an excellent me-
chanic, has happy ability for max
ing friends. He will do his best TO
give service of which there can be no
complaint.
The garage has been built by John
Jensen, 1t will be equipped with all
of the machinery necessary to do a
general line of automobile repairing.
Fred Stevenson will continue to
handle the service station end of the
plant. He is building up a gratifying
business, and needless to say Bud"
with his mechanical skill will handle
the garage business in just as accept
able manner.
AT time when conditions seem to
mitigating against expansion 1t is good
for community to see evidence that
someone has enough faith to branch
out. Frank Fuller, who purchased the
Shell station us an experiment, has a
reputation for good business judy
ment, and 1t is certainty that he
would not have INDUCED in further
expansion had he not considered it
sound investment to do So He has
known Vashon Island practically all
Of his life, so should be able to Judge
its possibilities with more than an
average accuracy.
The good wishes of the many
friends of these three men are ex-
tended to them on their latest ven
ture, and all are confident that they
will have the success they warrant.

Wander Lust
Siezes Boy Of Is

Wednesday evening Deputy Sheriff
Shattuck was called to the Bailey
home to question youngster who was
telling suspiciously contradictory
stories. The boy had given one name
to Vernon Bailey, but when Mr.. Shat
tuck arrived he had forgotten the first
name and substituted another one.
Convinced that the boy was fabri-
eating Mr.. Shattuck took him to his
home, where he continued to weave
more yarns. He insisted that he lived
in Tacoma, on West Holly street near
lighthouse. He stuck to the story
that his home was in Tacoma, not
Seattle. He told of his movements
since running away from an old
woman who was cruel to him. He
reached the Island Monday evening
and had picked berries at Prices one
day, had eaten with the Filipinos
there, had slept in a barn, etc.

him Vernon Bailey phoned that a
neighbor had just heard radio an
nouncement of Seattle boy who was
lost. He Immediately tuned in on
KOMO and the message was just be-
ing repeated, and an accurate descrip-
ton of the youngster before him.
Every detail was identical, except for
the overalls. This was later explained
by the boy, who said he had pur-
chased new overalls at an Island store
and discarded his own. He admitted
that he was Vernon Mann, the son of
a Seattle fireman; that he did not
leave home for any particular reason
except adventure. His parents were
at once notified and Mr.. Shattuck
left on the o'clock ferry to return
him to his home. His mother met the
ferry and was about the most relieved
woman in the whole city. She could
not account for any reason for the
youngster leaving except a thirst for
adventure.

Island Boys Will
See Olympic Games

A party of Island boys left Sunday
morning by auto with the Olympic
games opening at Palo Alto the last
OF this month as their objective. The
quartette was composed of Jimmie
and Paul Pettelle and Vernon and
Earl Hendricksen. They will probably
be gone month or six weeks.
Making their way, in easy stages
down the coast, the boys are planning
to see all of interest possible. They
reached Portland Sunday evening and
remained with an uncle of the Hen
dricksen boys until Tuesday morning,
when they left :or southern Oregon.
There they expected to visit the
wonderful natural caves of that local
ity. These caves are so large that it
requires the services of an expert
enced guide to go through them, al
though they are well lighted with
electric lights.
The boys will camp along the way
and left with goodly supply Of most
of the necessities of life. They have
been planning and saving for more
than year for the trip, feeling that
to witness the Olympic games is the
greatest opportunity for the youth of
today. Their plans have been the in
centive which spurred them on to
hard work and thrift that will be Of
inestimable character building value.
1t is safe to say that few who attend
the games will have made greater
effort or more sacrifices than these
four boys. They have not concerned
themselves about unemployment. but
have taken every Job offered them,
and saved religiously.
Here's hoping that these four Is
land youngsters have just as fine a
trip as they have anticipated for tho
past twelve months.

carnival Proceeds
Exceed Expectations

The 4th annual carnival Of the
vashon Business Mems Club Is now
thing Of the past. but the members
are still exulting over the splendid
success 1t proved to be.
On Friday morning, President Tim,
would have taken small sum for
chances of breaking even financially,
and till evening the weather continued
bad. However, about the time patrons
began to assemble the wind died
down and the moon broke through
the clouds. The result was that n
goodly crowd enjoyed some clean,
wholesome fun. On Saturday the
weather was as fine as anyone could
ask, and although the evening was
cool It was not unpleasantly so.
The generosity Of a number Of
wholesale concerns In Tacoma and
Seattle In contributing merchandise
assured everyone who patronized the
country store good returns on every
dime invested.
The wheel of fortune Melted some
very acceptable blankets, while the
crap shooting" paid big returns, and
gave young and old the thrill Of win
ming. Some Of the Island males had
their ego shattered when they demon
strated with the striking machine just
how strong they were not. The Reano
game, always popular, received Its
usual patronage, with at times many
waiting chance to play.
When all bills were paid, Treasurer
Garvin reports, there was profit of
$l76, portion of which will be used
to pay for the street lighting and part
for repairs and operation of the fire
truck.
The Parker Amusement Company
expressed qualification that they could
again bring their equipment to the
Island, and praised the Business
Mems Club for the fine cooperation
they were each year accorded.
