Mr. Norman J. Bruen, secretary of the T & E farm loan district organization has received

In behalf of the Church, I wish to thank all members of the cast, the Boy Scout Troop, 
friends who lent stage properties and costumes, musicians, scene shifters, make-up 
artists, ticket sellers, those helping to prepare the hall and to clean up afterwards, and any 
others who directly or indirectly aided in making the recent church entertainment a 
success.  C. H. Wood.

WEDNESDAY IS CEMETERY DAY
Wednesday, June 27th, has been set apart as Cemetery Day in Eatonville and community, 
for the purpose of improving the streets of the local cemetery.
These streets are a source of shame every time a funeral is held on account of their 
unkept and rocky condition, making them impassable.
Mayor C. A. Nettleton and the town council have designated the coming Wednesday as a 
day for donation work on the part of all public spirited local citizens.
R. Marti, Luther Wright, Mrs. Canty and others have announced they will furnish teams 
and wagons with which to carry away rocks and trash.
Others will furnish teams and implements.
All persons interested are urged to spend a part of the day, working on the cemetery 
grounds. There is plenty work for all who attend, with picks and shovels.
The cemetery grounds belong to the city of Eatonville but the only revenue available for 
improving the cemetery comes from the sale of lots.
This has not furnished enough money with which to do the work, hence the necessity of 
local citizens turning out and spending a portion of the day on the roads and grounds.
Some of the ladies are planning to bring lunches and spend the day assisting in the work.
The task is one which will surely invite the community for its performance as a duty, 
sadly neglected in the past.

NEWS FROM ALDER
An accident of an unusual character occurred to Harry Davidson early last Monday 
morning while he was "speeding" on his Henderson to Tacoma.
Harry says, "I was going along at a fair rate of speed when all of a sudden I struck 
something in the road that resulted in my motorcycle skidding out from under me, 
throwing me to one side of the road and the motorcycle on the other. I did not know at the 
time what it was that I hit, but upon investigation I found that a cow had previously been 
there and left an impediment in the road which resulted in my spill. I was painfully 
injured about my knee and one of my hands, and wishing to get a Doctor with all possible 
speed. I speeded up my machine. 
Harry says, "I had just gotten up a fair speed and would have reached the city within a 
half hour when all at once another racer rode up in front of me and commanded me to 
stop."
Says he, "Do you know you are going at the rate of about eighty miles an hour which is 
far in excess of the speed limit?"
"No," replied Harry, "I don't know how fast I am going but I know I want to get into the 
city at the earliest, possible moment!"
"Why so? " queried the Speed Cop, is there anything wrong that would justify you in 
going at this rate of speed?"
"Yes" replied Harry, "I had an accident which resulted in a painful bruise about my knee 
and a gash in my hand. I want to get to the Doctor as soon as I can."
"Well, lets see," said the speed cop, "Whether these injuries are of such a serious nature 
that they require immediate medical attention."
After an examination by the speed cop, who said; "no, they are not sufficiently painful to 
warrant you in breaking the speed limit, and I will have to fine you five dollars."
"I'll not pay it," retorted Harry, "I'll go to the Captain and present my case to him."
"Alright," replied the speed cop. "I'll accompany you to the station."
Upon arrival at the police station, Harry presented his case to the Captain, who however 
was a little bit skeptical and proceeded to make an examination as to the extent of the 
injuries.
"Well," says the Captain, "your injuries are not of a sufficient character to warrant you in 
breaking the speed limit. However, in view of the peculiar circumstances attending this 
case and this being your first offense, I will be lenient with you and fine you a nominal 
sum. Five dollars, please." Harry paid the fine. It is not know whether he secured medical 
aid or not.
