IN MEMORIAM

In sad memory of my dear son,
Charlie Thompson Pusey, who was
slain five years ago, May rs, 1856.
Days of sadness are still with me,
Tears in silence still will flow
When think of how you were n;ang-
led,
Though it's been five years ago.
And the demons still unapprehended
But, sometime, some day we'll under
stand
Peaceful be your silent slumber,
Peaceful in your grave so low
You no more will join our number
You no more our sorrows know.
BY your lonely mother

stalled on said craft as yet. but
give US time. give US time.
Anyhow. now we're going off the
deep end and suggest the local
boys take lesson from Germany.
tAnd we don't mean in goose
stepping or anything belligerent)
We learned from our sixth coll
umn" = non military waterfront
spies who honeycomb the world in
behalf Of this department = that
shipbuilders in Bremen have evolv-
ed a new type of fishboat Of less
than 100 feet The size is approxi-
mately that of the Tacoma special
ty in purse-seiners.
The new German boat (how in
the world do you suppose Old
Nasty has time for such things
these days?) will carry 200 tons
of fresh fish. But 1t also has some
very small auxiliary machinery for
making fish meal, lat and oil by
products.
Idea is to utilize efficiently the
fish innards, spare parts. and ined-
ible species formerly tossed over
board and pure waste.
Understand, it's no attempt to
make a floating reduction plant or
anything like that. Simply intend
ed to handle the otherwise wasted
material. AS a matter of fact, the
little processing plant will only
handle IS tons in "a hours at the
most.
Well. there's the germ of an idea
You're quite welcome.
And speaking of our local fish
boats.
Western bodybuilding Co. has
underway a construction program
that's definitely or the big side.
This week they laid keeis for
two new fishboats - one 95-foot
purse-seiner, one 115-foot bail boat
or baby tuna clipper.
