WEED DISTRICT NEWS
BY Paul Petrik. Jr.. Superintendent
Richland County Weed Control District

There is che perennial weed
that begins to show up this time
of year and that is sow thistle.
There are very small amounts OF
1T in Richland County. This weed
can be easily mistaken for ordi-
nary Sunflower, but when a close
look is taken, there is a great
difference. Sow thistle has a bios
som like SUI flower only it is
somewhat smaller. The petals of
the blossom are narrower and
more pointed. The bud in the
center is smaller, but has many
more seed pockets. The leaves are
the same order as Canada thistle.
They r dark green and have
SplneS or stickers on them. The
plant grows to a height of at least
six feet in good growing condi-
tons. The root system is vigor-
Gus and can reach a depth of ten
feet. New plants can be eStab-
lished from root buds. The hori-
zontal fleshy roots are fine and
numerous. New plants can be
produced from small root pieces.
The plant itself has a milky juice
throughout the stem and roots.
The best method of control is
intensive cultivation. Cultivation
should be 3 TO 4 inches deep anC
done every II days. small area!

The nationwide campaign titled Operation Red, White and Blue" now being conducted by the Fleet Reserve Association, which is an effort to encourage every citizen to purchase and display the Ameri- can Flag on all National and pat riotic holidays, is one worthy of support.
 The campaign is now in the home stretch, ending June 14. We don't know how successful it has been in accomplishing its purpose, but certainly it must have put more flags into the hands of citizens, and more flags will be seen flying proudly in the breeze on Flag Day, June IA.

Mirrored Reflections
By SIG DECREE

We're not going to write many words this week, but instead are going to relinquish the space to a very short-timer, our own staff member Casey Angell, who will soon leave these parts for the East Coast. We're going to give her 3 chance to tell you about her ef- forts during the Crab Festival, and where the money that was raised, went. There is one striking fact brought out that offers food for thought-how so-called 'tempor- ary" residents pitch in in com munity effort. Mrs. Angell, take over.
 A word of explanation and heartfelt thanks: The Kalsin Bay Benevolent Society booth had a large sign above it; a slightly smaller one hung below the identi- flying one, but number of GUS toners failed to read the smaller print that said, BENEFIT FOR TOWN LIBRARY AND HISTORI- CAL SOCIETY. One bill remains to be paid: after that all proceeds will be given the two groups named.
 The stove and grill, the enor- nous tubs of ice, even the cream pitchers, were lent by the Naval Station. So much depended on the Navy's cooperation, and so many Naval personnel smiled and said 'Yes" to requests for equipment and services; the, Society is deeply indebted to them. Thank you, one and all
 The way seemed smooth on Sat urday morning, but hitches do develop, even with the best laid plans; this booth began with troubles that threatened to scuttle everything before it even started. Here was the excited membership of the Kalsin Bay Benevolent So- ciety, stoves in place, 87 pounds of lovely frozen King crab and 300 rolls to heat, many unpaid bills in an empty till, and no electricity. The power was there but the con meeting wires did not reach the ap- pliances, and there was an irrecon- cilable difference in the plugs. Friends who wanted to support the Society waited hungrily, commis- erating with our plight. Doom.

POLICE SLOGAN

Drivers-be dependable. School kids aren't expendable.
 Since the slogan says school kids aren't expendable, we would like to call to the attention of all ve- hicle drivers to please be little more careful this time of year as school is out and there will be a lot more children on the streets playing.
 We wish to express our thanks to each of you for having such fine record so far. Just remember Safe driving is what you make it.

To the rescue came Aviati0S Electricians Mate End. Glass Darrel R. Cagle who has such way with wires that in short while power was on and food could be prepared Out came crusty hot French rolls filled with hot King crab fairly drenched with melted butter, and along came customers by the ones and twos and more, sometimes even 8 or 10 at once. We greatly appreciate their patience and pat ~onage.
 So too goes our gratitude to those who joined the Kalsin Bay Benevolent Society and worked with enthusiasm to make its effort successful: Chaplain Bob and Hell ena Vaughn, LCDR Joe and Fly Stanton, LCDR Roy Angell, Aleda Angell, and Emil Norton of Alas ka King Crab. The Vaughns worked at the booth, replenished supplies, chased their sons in be- tween times, and smiled benevol- ently all the day long. The Stan tons did leg work, advertised our wares, and cooked our dinner on Sunday night. Roy Angell lugged all sorts of things, and kept the money straight-how important that was. Aleda shopped for sup plies and performed helpful tasks. And other friends, stopping by, gave help when it was needed.
 We did not know Emil Norton was member Of the Society until he refused to write out bill for the King crab, and asked if he might be a silent member. Bless him, the profits soared-barring slight error in arithmetic, they stand at $122.32.
 As to the Kalsin Bay Benevolent Society, 1t is just a name for a small group of friends who wish Kodiak well. The pretty sign and the idea will be passed on to mem- bers who are going to live here for longer time.
 Lest the reader believe we con- slider the experience unique as re- lated here, we hasten to add that it is the story in kind of many other booths as we'll. We tell it only to explain what seems to have pug zled some people, and to thank the many who made the effort possible.

A CongreSSman's charge that
the United States Office of
Education has drafted "a mas

Representative Ayers, Re-

increase the size of the 11,078-

fold and could be dangerous.
