Death Claims Three
Burton Residents
Mrs. Phil Green

The death of Mrs. Phil Green Fri
day morning, January 9Th came as a
Terrific shock, not alone to the mem
bers Of her family but to the entire
community. Apparently rugged In
health her sudden illness was without
warning, and it did not seem possible,
when news of her passing reached the
Island that 1t could be true.
In attempting tribute to the life
and character Of such a woman as
Mrs. Green, words are futile. She was
ever busy for the comfort and we'll
being of those about her; never allow
ing the small irritations Of life to dis
turb her composure. never giving way
to her feelings. always the same de-
pendable, cheerful wife, mother and
friend. Few individuals enjoy to such
degree the genuine regard and af-
lection that was accorded her, yet 1t
came, not through her own seeking,
but was inspired rather by the service
she constantly rendered, regardless Of
self. Always happy and full Of the
love Of life she was surrounded by an
atmosphere that made others forget
their troubles. She was sympathetic,
always ready to listen to the joys and
sorrows of her family and friends.
Her attitude to her husband and chill
dren was that of colnrade and the
home life that resulted noticeable to
all who came in contact with them.
either in public or in the circle Of the
home. The entire family radiated 3
love and coinpanionship, free from dis
cord, such as is rarely found, particu-
larly among individuals possessing
such strong personalities.
1t is indeed hard to be reconciled to
the loss Of one who occupied such a
vital place in the lives of all who
knew her. With only few hours
warning, during which all that medi-
cal skill was capable Of was done, Mrs.
Green passed away at Seattle General
hospital Friday morning.
Kate Sandwich was born at Friday
Harbor, San Juan Islands, June g.,
1888. In the same community in
which she was born she was reared
and educated. popular as a girl for the
same qualities which later gained her
the loving respect Of all who knew her.
On January 10, 1911 her marriage
to Phillip Green occurred. Mr.. and
Mrs. Green established their home at
Olalla, living there until they came to
Burton twelve years ago. To them
were born three children, Joe, 81,
Phillip, II and Janet,7.
Beside her devoted husband and
children, Mrs. Green is survived by
six sisters, Mrs. Jessie Carlson, the
Misses Bessie and Mary johnson, and
Mrs. Ethel Green, all of Seattle; Mrs.
Irene Erickson, of Friday Harbor;
Mrs Nettie Griffin, of Fairbanks,
Alaska; three brothers, Oscar and
Leander, of Seattle, and julius, Of
Friday Harbor, and her stepfather,
Andrew Johnson, of Friday Harbor.
Funeral services were held Sunday
afternoon from the Burton Community
Church, conducted by Rev. Fretz. The
auditorium of the church was filled
with sorrowing friends who braved the
storm to pay a last respect to one
whose place in not only the home
circle, but in wide circle of sincere
friends can never be filled. The pro-
fusion of flowers sent as a token of

Earl w. Benson of Walla Walla. The
vote was Yantis II, Benson as. The
two candidates. did not vote and the
result shows the exact party strength
OF that body. Benson moved to make
the choice unanimous and the motion
prevailed. In nominating Yantis the
Democratic floor leader, Donald A.
Mcdonald, mentioned the fact that
Yantis' grandfather was member of
the legislature in territorial days and
declared the state needed pioneer
stock at this time If ever.
In his acceptance speech, which was
exceedingly short, Yantis called upon
the house members to be faithful to
themselves, to forget party differences
and work only for the good of the
entire state. He limited that unem-
ployment problems would occupy much,
of the attention of the law makers

to invent grievances against the Americans, and
curse them foully. Then came a night when
no Americans were in the cafe, only the three

voice:
