r JIM STEVENS S For 2 years it has been my ajride and joy to b a bearer of good tidings on th forest in dustry progress of Grtys Harbor county. Ittook a lot of looking to find briaht aits ct hws (ground the Harbor in t priod 1937-1940. The "degression" hi struck the county early, with tn clos ing of the Hayes and Hayes bank on Feb. 7, 1927. Local building O and much other enterprise of small business was all but stop ped at a time when hong- con struction was still going on na- tion-wide at the rate of a mil- q lion units a year. Even so an old logger could see vast pole timber stands on the hills along the highways, and these growing into sawtim- ber sizes. And on new cutovers one could paw down though the bracken and find tree seedlings being nursed by the weeds. The like made good stones to tell And they were true, as the new U.S. forest surveys demonstrate Defense and war demands for lumber, plywood and shingles set the Harbor saws and lathes turning again in 1940. And in 1941 Weyerhaeuser's Clemons Tree Farm was dedicated. Mc Cleary was saved and made a Simpson Logcing company unit of manufacture and tree farm Ing. The good work went on The good news kept coming from Grays Harbor. Hemlock Gold Now a new pulp mill is I operation, as a vital unit of the Weyerhaeuser Timber company enterprise in Grays Harbor and Pacific counties. All of the com q Piy's forest ownerships in the iwo counties were uruut;ut un der the Clemons management a year ago, adding the Willapa and Wyooche tree farms to the elder of the family. The pulp mill employs 250 person. The plant structures and their production units and equip ment represent a value of $100, 000 for each job in the opera tion. The total extent o. the three tree farms is about 341,000 acres. More than 400 men are in the logging crews, to supply the company's Aberdeen and Ray mond sawmills as well as the new pulp mill. The Willapa Harbor sawmill the Raymond mill is one of the World's most modern lumber manufacturing plants. The old mill has been built anew. It is a powerful wit ness to the economic faith that lumber will remain the No. 1 forest product of the United States for many years to come. Outdoor Writers Along with the opening of the new pulp mill on the Cosmopolis corner of the Grays Harbor tri angle of towns, the Outdoor Writers of America came strem ing ever the prairies and the mountains and down through the handsome young treefarm crops of the county to hold their national convention. Westport fishing, the Olympic elk, and tree-farm deer, trout and pheas ant were in the minds of these sports-writing specialists. But they were also happy to see the trees greening up over the old stumps. Is there another area in the U.S.A., or in all the world, more richly endowed by nature for tree growing particularly for the growing of commercially valuable timber on a vast scale then Grays Harbor and Pacific counties? And on all this land timber and game are twin crops. The outdoor writers, after con vening in Aberdeen from all parts of the U.S.A., are going home with rich memories of green glory on the fae of the earth.

My husband and I have been married six years and have two children. Two years ago he became in volved with another woman and we separated. We made plans to divorce and I started going out with another man. We planned to marry, but when he learned I was to have a child this man ran out on me before the divorce. My husband was very decent about the whole thing. He paid the hospital bills and we finally became reconciled. We are now living together again, but Jerry sajis he just can't stand the baby. I try to tell him how foolish that is. The baby isn't to blame The whole thing was Jerry's iault in the first place. Jerry N. Harriet puts the blame on me, but she doesn't mention that I never wanted to separate from her. I got involved with another woman, true. So have a lot of other men It was a mistake, but I didn't want to break up our home. I didn t want to be sepa rated from my own kids. That was all Harriet's idea. Plenty of women have given their husband another chance under those circumstances. They don't go off having an affair with another man before they are even divorced. I told Harriet I am willing to support the kid, but she can't expect me to warm up to him and treat him as if he was my 7380: patterns, directions for 2 dolls.

It's not right, I know, but the baby gets on my nerves. The Council: Harriet and Jerry have both been wrong and foolish and there is no point to their talk about which one is more responsible for their unfortunate situation. Bach is equally guilty and entitled to his and her share of forgiveness from the other. One thing is sure, however the new baby Is not In the least to blame and should not have to suffer the consequences of this adult-created mess. This child cannot grow up normally unless Jerry can accept him and learn to love him. If Jerry cannot bring him self to this point, the couple should consider placing the child out for adoption. In this way, the baby will find two loving par ents. It is a difficult decision to make. Harriet and Jerry will have to talk the problem over with a clergyman and with rep resentatives of a reliable agency which handles adoptions. (Copyright 1957. General Features Corp.)
