The survey results were reviewed by hospital commissioners at their regular meeting held last Wednesday. Bill Robinson, from Robinson Research of Spo- kane, said results of the 400-person survey showed significant gains across the board, compared to the 2004 survey, adding that ev- ery one of the 18 tested at- tributes was higher. Robinson noted that 70 percent of those surveyed said Morton General comes to mind first when they think of a hospital. “That is up from 58 percent in 2004,” he said. “Although 18 percent of respondents named Mor- ton General as a hospital they preferred to avoid,” Robinson stated, “that is Opening night at new White Pass High School football field for the Timberwolves Morton/White Pass Timberwolves enjoy opening night on the new football field on the White Pass High School campus with a win over Wahkiakum Friday night.

The facility was described by many as having competent, good care along with look- ing nice and updated. Robinson explained that most community hospitals serving rural areas that are within two hours drive of major medical centers suf- fer from the perception that bigger hospitals provide better overall care. He said the Morton re- sults were surprisingly good compared to other small hospitals for which his firm has conducted surveys. In other business at last Wednesday’s board meet- ing, Superintendent Ron DeArth reported the hospi- tal has agreed to lease up- dated laparoscopic surgery equipment from Stryker, a leader in such technology. According to an over- view written by Morton surgeon Dr. Tom Anderson, the new equipment includes high-definition monitors and cameras that are far su- perior to those currently in use. The five-year lease of the Stryker equipment will cost a little over $2,000 per month, DeArth said. DeArth reported that he now expects construction bids for the new addition to be posted by about March of next year with construction starting about a month later. He added that $4 million in bonds to finance the project are currently scheduled to be sold in late October. The board will need to approve a bond resolution authoriz- ing the sale next month, he added. DeArth also reported that cost estimates for the site improvement project across Adams Avenue from the hospital are consider- ably higher than expected, primarily due to the high cost of a drainage system to handle run-off from the parking lot. The drainage system alone is estimated to cost about $44,000, noted DeArth.

SR 508 will be ful- ly closed between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. Monday, Sept. 20 through Friday, Sept. 24 while crews use a large crane to set the major pieces of an erosion prevention structure in place. SR 508 must be closed during this work because the 180-ton crane takes up both lanes of the nar- row highway and there is no room for drivers to safely pass through the work zone. Crews will use the crane to place logs and 22,000-pound boulders every 50 feet underneath SR 508, forming an an- chor-boulder structure. The logs are then lashed to the boulders and the structure is filled with smaller boulders to pro- vide a more stable base for the highway. The anchor-boulder structure also protects the embankment from further erosion by the Tilton River. SR 508 will be open between the hours of 3 p.m. and 7:30 a.m. Driv- ers can expect minor de- lays while an automated signal controls single- lane traffic.

According to a recent telephone survey of East Lewis County residents, public attitudes and per-ceptions of Morton Gen-eral Hospital show almost unanimous improvement over a similar survey con-ducted in 2004. The survey results were reviewed by hospital commissioners at their regular meeting held last Wednesday.

Thank you to a wonderful communityTo the editor,

I have lived in this com-munity for 33 1/2 years. Morton is like a big family. They might bicker and dis-agree but let one of us be ill, harmed or burned out of our homes and people you know or don’t know will rise to help you.

This is a blessing most of us have needed at one time or another.

I have been on a medical leave from my job at Mor-ton Country Market as a courtesy clerk. I was bitten by a hobo spider at the end of May this year.

That bite turned into a secondary infection fol-lowed by cellulitis, which can be deadly if not treated immediately.

I was in isolation due to the fear of infectious dis-ease at St. Peters Hospital in Olympia for two days. The many blood tests fi-nally proved that I was not contagious so the rest of my stay in the hospital was not

as scary.When I was discharged,

I was as weak and shaky as I’ve ever been during my many illness challenges.

I was finally released to work again on Aug. 17. I believe that all the prayers, kindness and understand-ing by my local creditors for late or partial payments and the customers of Mor-ton Country Market, played the largest part in my full recovery.

My friends and family were the icing on my re-covery. My prayer shawl made by Myrna Norris and delivered by Sandy Mau-pin engulfed me in prayer and peace during my worst days.

I thank each and every one of you. I look forward to seeing all of you when I am called back to work at the store!

Disagree with courts decisionTo the editor,

In regards to the dis-honest article published on Sept. 1, 2010 by The Mor-ton Urinal (The East County Journal) titled “Van Rense-laar found guilty” on page 3.

I’d like to point out that Steve Scott and Bob Toes-natch are both individu-als that see nothing wrong with using their positions of power to enforce their per-sonal vendettas.

Through dishonesty, they have manipulated the judiciary as well as the pub-lic. This sets a dangerous standard.

Without justice, there can be no closure on these tragedies and without clo-sure, citizens are doomed to endure such outrageous excesseses which gravely threaten the liberty of all law abiding citizens.

To continue to ignore it will harken the day when frustrated freedom loving people will no longer re-spect the authority of their

government, will no longer seek justice by peaceful means in a court of law, but will be forced to fight for it, empowered by force of arms, in bloody streets.

My last point, the char-acter of every act, depends upon the circumstance in which it is committed.Respectfully,James Van Renselaar

As the fog descends, drivers are reminded not to let their awareness do the same. Visibility is already poor in the early morning, don’t let inat-tention be the cause of an unwanted collision.

Although only U.S. Highway 12 has caution signs on it, all drivers should turn on their head-lights whether it helps with their own visibility or not.

Turning on the headlights might not help

Fall conditions call for more focused driversyou see better, but it certainly helps others see you better, and is a very easy way of potentially avoiding a collision.

Drivers talking on cell phones that require your hands is illegal and a good way to distract yourself long enough to cause an accident. Please pull over to talk on your phone or wait to call the person back. Remember it’s the law, and adults please be a good influence for our youth.

MadsenSandra Rae Wood Nan-

ney Madsen, 64, passed away Sept. 1, 2010. San-dra is survived by her three children Tina M. Nanney of Chandler, Ariz., Terri L. Beringer of Maple Valley and Rick E. Nanney of Cen-tralia.

She is also survived by brothers Jerry (Kaye) Wood of Morton and Larry (Shir-ley) Wood of Green Valley, Ariz.; grandchildren Jon (Willy) Vigre of Chehalis and Amy Palumbo of Scott-sdale, Ariz.

A private celebration of life will be held on Satur-day, Oct. 2 in Chehalis at 5 p.m.

PierceClara Blanche (Wom-

bacher) Pierce, 89, was born Nov. 19, 1920, on a homestead in Haxby, Mont., to Ray and Blanche Wombacher. In 1923, the family moved to the Bon-ners Ferry, Idaho area. Clara attended Bonners Ferry High School where she graduated valedictorian in 1938.

She also excelled in ath-letics, including a second place finish at the Idaho State Tennis Championship. After graduation, Clara en-tered the banking industry, working in Idaho, Washing-ton, California and Alaska.

In 1954, she married James H. Pierce in Anchor-age, Alaska, where she later gave birth to two sons. The family moved to Washing-ton state in 1960. Clara be-came a widow in 1977 and continued in banking until her retirement at age 62.

At age 70, Clara hit the road in her new motor home and traveled the U.S. for

seven years, visiting all 50 states, then returned to buy a home in Washington. In 2009, Clara moved to her own home on her son Tom Pierce’s property in Mor-ton.

Clara passed away on Sept. 1, 2010. She is sur-vived by her son Dan and daughter-in-law Jean; her son Tom and daughter-in-law Gerrie and grandchil-dren Dave, Katie and JR.

She was preceded in death by her par-ents, husband and five brothers and sisters. Burial will be at Grandview Cemetery in Bonners Ferry, Idaho.

BeckMr. Sidney Emil Beck,

age 74, of Victoria, Tx., died Friday, Aug. 27, 2010, at home following a long struggle with cancer. He was born on Aug. 8, 1936, in Morton, son of the late Frederick Emil Beck and Mary Ivy Farthing Beck.

After graduating from Morton High School in 1954, Sid attended Whit-man College in Walla Wal-la, and Columbia University School of Mines, New York City, N.Y.

He completed a joint pro-gram leading to undergrad-uate degrees in mathematics and mining engineering, followed by a master’s de-gree in mining engineering.

His degrees led to posi-tions in the mining indus-try and plant management. Work took him to several locations, including Mexico and various states.

Sid held an avid interest in military vehicles and was a long time member of the Military Vehicle Preserva-tion Association.

In 2010, he was awarded their pioneering award for lifetime achievement in promoting the preservation of historic military vehicles.

His beautiful, expertly, restored 1952 M37 military truck received recognition and awards at MVPA rallies and conventions.

He took his 1941 Chev-rolet 1 1/2 ton military truck to Canada to drive the Alcan Highway for the 50-year commemoration, and then to Europe for the 60th an-niversary of the storming of Normandy.

In the late 1970s, he and two partners started Ace Surplus Sales, a supplier of antique military vehicle parts. When he retired from the mining industry he be-came the sole proprietor, and his cherished hobby flourished as a business.

He traveled extensively in search of the military ve-hicle parts his business of-fered.

His generous nature gained friends across the country and helped many a vehicle enthusiast through

their mechanical challeng-es.

As if Sid’s family re-sponsibilities, building his career and his military vehicle interests were not enough to keep him busy, he built five homes the fam-ily lived in.

His accomplishments and talents were a true tes-tament to his active mind and the skills he learned growing up on a working farm.

Sid held fond memories of his youthful years in Morton. In spite of a career that took him far from the Pacific Northwest, he con-sidered Morton his home.

He traveled to Morton frequently to take care of the family farm and attend the annual Loggers’ Jubilee. He faithfully attended his high school reunions and stayed in touch with class-mates. He greatly valued his friendships and family ties in the Pacific North-west.

Sid is survived by his wife of 51 years, Mary Jan-net Mann Beck and three children; Nathan Neale Beck of Boise, Idaho, Mel-anie Linn Beck of Thou-sand Oaks, California, and Emerie Fay Beck Auberlen of Oahu, Hawaii, as well as his two grandchildren, Kaiser Anton Auberlen and Kirin Sele Auberlen.

A memorial service will be held at the Morton Senior Center, 103 Westlake Ave., on Friday, Oct. 22, 2010, at 11 a.m. The family will pro-vide lunch afterward at the center. Memorial donations may be made to Hospice of South Texas, 605 E. Locust Street, Victoria, TX 77901, and the Military Vehicle Preservation Association, P.O. Box 520378, Indepen-dence, MO 64055.

An article in the Sept. 1 edition about the Cowlitz River Ad-Hoc Advisory Group described member Terry Turner as a represen-tative of Trout Unlimited. Turner says he is a fish ad-vocate and does not repre-sent any group on the com-

Correctionmittee. The same article quoted Turner as saying Ta-coma Power had not made an honest effort to solve the downstream smolt collec-tion problem in the upper Cowlitz. That was stated by another member of the com-mittee, not Turner.

Motorcyclist collides with deersible broken leg and abra-sions and was transported to Morton General Hospital. Motorcycle received $2,000 in damages, the report stat-ed.

Drugs and/or alcohol were not involved and Ko-tanko was wearing a U.S. Department of Transporta-tion compliant helmet, the report concluded.

Lance J. Clark, 49 of Glenoma, received mas-sive trauma to his head and chest as well as broken neck when he struck a concrete bridge support while travel-ing west on U.S. Highway 12, 10 miles east of Mor-ton on Saturday, Sept. 11 at 2:56 a.m, according to a report from the Washington State Patrol.

Clark was traveling west on Highway 12 when he left the roadway, drove into a gully and struck the sup-port of a bridge, causing the vehicle to start to flip up on

Alleged drunk driver hits bridgeits front and collided the top of the vehicle with the support before falling back to its wheels, the report ex-plained.

Clark was transported to Morton General Hospital and then airlifted to Harbor-view and his 1992 Nissan Pathfinder was deemed to-taled, the report stated.

Drugs and/or alcohol were involved and charges against Clark are pending as of press time, but the cause of the incident was driving under the influence, the re-port concluded.

The results are in from the recent Drive Ham-mered, Get Nailed enforce-ment campaign conducted from Aug, 12 through Sept. 6.

It was the largest Driving Under the Influence (DUI) enforcement campaign in our state’s history with 172 agencies participating.

In Lewis County, 37 motorists were stopped and arrested for DUI, and state-wide, law enforcement of-ficers arrested 2,672 drivers for DUI.

In Lewis County, the Centralia, Chehalis, Mor-ton, Mossyrock, Napavine, Pe Ell, Vader and Winlock Police Departments, the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office and the Washington State Patrol participated in the extra emphasis patrols,

Drive Hammered, Get Nailed Campaign results announced

with the support of the Lew-is County Target Zero Traf-fic Safety Task Force. The extra patrols were funded by a grant from the Wash-ington Traffic Safety Com-mission.

Impaired driving is not an accident; it’s an epidem-ic of deliberate disregard for human life and is the lead-ing cause of traffic deaths in Washington.

During 2009, impaired drivers killed more than half of the 491 people who died on Washington’s roadways. The 264 impaired driver-involved deaths last year represent a decrease of nine fatalities compared to the previous five-year average.

For additional informa-tion about the Washington Traffic Safety Commission, visit www.wtsc.wa.gov

Commissioners can-celled a previous resolu-tion authorizing $100,000 for the project and passed a new resolution that allows up to $175,000 to be spent on the site improvements, which will include lighting and security cameras for the new paved parking lot.

Hospital finance officer Tim Cournyer reported that hospital gross revenues in July were above the bud-geted monthly target for the first time this year. He added that the net gain for the month was $61,945, the

highest so far this year.Cournyer also reported

that an exit conference for the recent state audit of hospital finances and policy compliance is scheduled for Sept. 16 via teleconference. According to information he has received, there are no findings or management let-ters resulting from the audit and only five minor recom-mendations.

Due to a scheduling conflict with the annual Washington State Hospital Association conference in Seattle, the October meet-ing of the Morton Hospital board of commissioners will take place on Oct. 18, beginning at 4 p.m.

On Sept. 13, Shirley F. Looney, 72 of Salkum, failed to negotiate a curve, left the roadway and failed to regain control before colliding with rocks, trees and an embankment at 2:31 p.m., a report from the Washington State Patrol stated.

Looney was wearing her seatbelt and received bruises/lacerations to her el-

Driver collides with embankmentbow and was transported to Centralia Providence hospi-tal. Looney’s 1992 Pontiac Bonneville received $5,000 in damages, the reported stated.

still waiting for a final Cer-tificate of Occupancy from the State Department of Health and Lewis County for the new Junior High/High School. The 60-day temporary certificate is good until about mid-Octo-ber, he said.

A problem with the new and almost completed track facility was disclosed by Evans along with public comments from Joe Fenbert and Sue Fortin.

Apparently the track was designed as 400 meters in length but placed on a foot-print for a 440-yard track, which has been outdated for 30 years.

Converting the distances from yards to meters would require constantly moving the finish line for different race distances, which would be very confusing to run-ners, noted Fenbert.

Fortin added that WIAA might not allow district or regional meets to be held on

such a facility.Superintendent Evans

said he would continue to investigate the situation and get back to the board and others from the public who are concerned with options to correct the problem.

School principal Gary Stamper reported that se-niors are taking the Com-pass college placement test this week.

There is no cost to stu-dents and taking the test al-lows them to enter any com-munity college in any state, said Stamper. He added that White Pass is also eligible to provide the similar ACT test at no cost to 8th graders.

The principal said he is addressing the crowded lunchroom conditions being experienced in the commons area of the new school.

More tables have been brought in and they are still able to maintain sepa-ration between junior high and school students during lunch, but more work on the issue still needs to be done, he said.

Carolyn Mullenix gave a short presentation on the Title I and Learning As-

sistance Program funding at White Pass elementary. She said students in grades 3-5 once again did not meet the Annual Yearly Progress scores for math last spring, which continues funding availability to provide para-educators in classrooms.

Kathy Tully provided a short report on student learning, noting that el-ementary students at White Pass are still struggling with math, noting that White Pass has the lowest Mea-surement of Student Prog-ress (MSP) math scores in Lewis County.

She said the teaching staff is working on a pro-gram framework similar to that implemented in read-ing for the past two years to help improve math scores.

Mary Prophit reported on her summer trip to Washing-ton, D.C. accompanied by eight White Pass students and eight adults. Highlights included placing a wreath with White Pass school colors on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Ar-lington National Cemetery and meeting Congressman Brian Baird.

Local library events slated

School in Mossyrock is officially in full swing now, and so are fall sports. The cross country team just returned from the Trask Mountain Assault 2010 where they competed with 48 other schools in a course with river crossings, and steep hills, and mud!

Coach Casey Taylor brought the team down to this race in McMinnville last year too, and they were all excited to return. Out of 234 runners in the 3-mile varsity course, Mossy’s top three men were Ryley Alvord, closely followed by Travis Johson and then Mitch Johnson.

The girls did Mossyrock proud in the 3-mile course too. With 184 runners, Shannon Simon placed well, with Alex McLeod, Tia Storey, Molly Cushman and Annie Petersohn pull-

ing in as a group about three minutes later.

The Mossyrock Area Recreation Committee held a spaghetti dinner at the school over the weekend to share with the community about the progress of the future community center. These are exciting times for our area! You should check out the photos of the park property on their Facebook page.

The committee will be sponsoring their second an-nual Halloween Dance on October 30. They’re look-ing for candy donations for the evening to ensure that every child receives a candy bag. You can drop your do-nations off at city hall. The dance will be from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., and admission will be $1.

If you know of children in our district who may

benefit from special educa-tion pre-school, please let the district know. They are looking for three to five-year-olds. Parents may con-tact the elementary school for details on screening for disabilities.

If you have any news to share, just contact us. We’d love to hear from you. You can email us at [email protected] or call us at (360) 983-8903.

Today, grandparents or other relatives are rais-ing over 35,000 children in Washington state. That means about one child in every 50 is in a home where neither birth parent is ac-tively engaged in rearing his or her own child.

While on the surface this might sound appeal-ing to relative caregivers, the responsibilities can be frustrating and exhausting. Knowing how to handle the challenges of child raising can make the experience energizing and rewarding.

Centralia College is part-nering with Family Educa-tion and Support Services

“Grandparents as parents” seminar at Centralia Collegeand the Lewis-Mason-Thur-ston Area Agency on Aging to offer grandparents as par-ents classes.

All grandparents and other relative caregivers are encouraged to attend the opening session scheduled for Monday, Sept. 27, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., in the Home and Family Life building lo-cated at the corner of Rock Street and Centralia College Boulevard. Free childcare is available.

The sessions will contin-ue on the second and fourth Mondays of each month through the fall quarter. Please call Linda Wilcox at (360) 736-9391, ext. 464 or

298, for more information. Wilcox is available via e-mail at [email protected].

Relatives struggling with custody issues, wondering what community support is available, or looking to con-nect with other grandpar-ents or relative caregivers are encouraged to attend.

Why was there not an article last week? Good question for those who have asked. I was in a place that had no cell service nor in-ternet service. That means no way to send in an article for you all to read.

My family went on our end of summer vacation up at Mud Lake with 20 plus people and had a blast. This was our second year that we went camping. We caught fish, went on hikes and took a very cold lake bath. It sure made me thankful for living in a house with hot running water and a place to take a warm shower or bath.

The weather here was raining most of the time I was gone and most of the time up at Mud Lake. I didn’t get to miss out on rain. It has cooled down quite a bit. Feels like fall already. Leaves haven’t re-ally started changing as of yet, or not enough to make it feel like fall that is.

I would like to give a big thank you to the Mineral Lake Lions Club. I was in need of eyeglasses and they were generous enough to help me out with that. I am humbled by their generos-ity. I am not the only one they help with glasses.

This is one of many

charitable things they do. Not just for us here but for people around the world. I wrote about some of the Li-ons going and helping sort glasses a couple of weeks ago.

If you have glasses you no longer need please drop them off at any Lions club so they can find a new own-er that can use them.

The cooler weather has brought on the bite for Rainbow Trout on Mineral Lake. Anglers over the weekend saw increased ac-tivity with the rainbow trout bite and they are rising to the surface to feed.

The bait of choice con-tinues to be floating power eggs, worms, worms and marshmallows using char-treuse colors. Fish for brown trout on the bottom with a large worm or worm and power egg. The bite for trout will continue to improve during the cooler weather. Fishing continues to improve from the Resort docks as well.

The senior lunch is to-morrow at the Mineral Fire Hall. Lunch will be served at noon. Please bring a dish to share if you plan on at-tending and bring extra if you bring a guest.

Two up coming events to

keep a look out for here in Mineral at the Mineral Lake Event Center. The first one is the the 4th Annual “Mt.Rainier Rhythm and Blues Festival” and “Food Drive” for the Lewis County food bank, will take place on Sept. 25. There will be more information next week on this.

The second event is “Meet the Candidates” at the Mineral Lake Event Center on Monday, Sept. 27 at 7 p.m. More to come about this meeting next week as well.

IRS and small business tax incentives

Cvitkovic began by mythbusting some of the misconceptions regarding the IRS and the Afford-able Care Act. He said that although, the bill will re-quire a new W2 form that includes a box that asks for the value of employer ben-efits, the new box is infor-

mational only.“It will not be taxed,”

Cvitkovic assured.He noted that the health-

care coverage for an em-ployee’s children under 27 years of age is now “gen-erally tax-free.” He noted that the expanded benefit’s tax free status also applies to the self-employed who qualify.

Cvitkovic emphasized the importance of the Medi-care Part D Coverage Gap Rebate. Medicare Part D recipients who have reached their Medicare drug plan’s coverage are eligible for a one-time $250 rebate in 2010. He also reminded that the IRS is not making the payment.

But what all the business owners were particularly interested in was the Small Business Health Care Tax Credit. The tax credit is de-signed to encourage small

businesses to start offering their employees healthcare and make it more afford-able.

There are a variety of loopholes, however, that ex-empt small business owners from receiving the credit. Cvitkovic said to visit www.irs.gov for more informa-tion. Baird said it is estimat-ed that 4 million businesses nationwide will be eligible for the tax credit and about 106,000 in Washington state.

He also reminded that only businesses with more than 50 employees will be required in 2014 to offer healthcare coverage to em-ployees.

During the question and answer period, Representa-tive Gary Alexander urged Baird and Goings to look into the Lewis County busi-nesses that still have not re-ceived their SBA loans.

Sutherland explained that the state has never awarded both of the grants to the same project before and she was very excited about the information.

The only item left on the agenda was an intro-duction of FourU Realty, which opened a new office in Mossyrock.

The new office is located at 118 State Street and the employees stated that they are wanting to become con-tributing members of the community.

A familiar name and face will be back in the halls of the White Pass school district for the 2010/2011 school year.

Jacki Phelan, a graduate in the 1980 White Pass se-nior class, will be returning to her alma mater to teach math and science at the ju-nior high and high school levels.

Phelan, who lives in Mossyrock with her hus-band and her daughter Sarah who is a senior at Mossyrock, has a bit of experience having taught a year in Juno, Ak. She also taught at Rochester School District.

Currently, Phelan teach-

es three classes, but she is hoping to move into a full time position next year if there is funding available.

“Just the jitters of being in a new position,” Phelan commented on her nerves. “I only have the three classes so I have more than enough time to prepare. I wouldn’t mind having an English class as well.”

Phelan stated that she hasn’t had a lot of parent contact yet, but the staff and students have been very good to her.

“It’s nice to be back at White Pass, because that’s where I started,” Phelan said. “I really like the new building. It’s a nice facility, and there is a lot of technol-ogy available.”

As both Phelan and her husband commute quite a distance, (Phelan to Randle and her husband to Taco-ma), she feels that she will probably just stay in the middle ground.

“It was a real depressed economy when I graduated, so I almost didn’t get to go to college,” Phelan stated. “I’m really looking forward to encouraging the students to pursue a higher educa-tion.”

Phelan received her BA in social sciences from Washington State Univer-sity. She then went to Saint Martin’s Secondary Teacher Alternate Route (STAR) program for one year to receive her teaching certifi-cate.

Returning to the scene after 30 yearsBy AlexAnder PetersonThe East County Journal

“I am excited to be home,” says Darin Allen, the new Behavioral Inter-ventionist at White Pass School District. The 1985 White Pass alumni began the new school year in an office in the brand new high school building with the task of administering disci-pline for grades kindergar-ten through 12th grade.

Allen said that after two years at Ellensburg High School following a 5-year stint at Mossyrock, he was ready to return to a small school.

“I have always been prideful of the history of East Lewis County,” he said. “This place was built by hard-working people,” he noted, “and although the economy has suffered dur-ing the last decade or so, the spirit of those people is still here.”

“My family and my wife Julie’s family are all still lo-cated here,” he said.

He and Julie are back living in their former home at Mossyrock, which they didn’t sell when they left two years ago.

“I am tickled every day to drive up the valley to this school,” he added. “The staff here is amazing, and I get to work with Gary Stamper in a brand new building.”

Stamper and Allen were fellow teachers and basket-ball coaches at Mossyrock.

“I am also intrigued by the combined athletics with Morton, our heated rivals when I was in school here,” he said. It’s great for the kids and also great for both communities, he noted.

Regarding his new job, Allen said discipline in edu-

cation still uses the basic principles of the past. The focus has changed a little, though, he said.

“We want students to learn that there are conse-quences for their actions. Poor choices on their part result in consequences.” Allen added that the goal is to head off bad behaviors before they happen.

After graduating from White Pass, Allen worked in the locals mills and at-tended Central Washington University and St. Mar-tins University, graduating

from St. Martins in 2003 with a degree in elementary education and minors in hu-manities and health fitness. He started coaching boys’ basketball at Mossyrock in 2002 while still attending college.

Allen began his teach-ing career at Mossyrock in 2003, teaching special education there until 2008, when he left to take a job coaching high school boy’s basketball at Ellensburg. While coaching at Ellens-burg, he taught seventh grade science in Selah.

The Mossyrock Vikings cross country team began their season last Saturday in McMinnville, Oregon.

“We camped and ran at a race called The Trask Mountain Assault,” coach Casey Taylor said. “It’s a muddy race with two river crossings and many mud bogs.

T-Wolves quash Wahkiakum with smothering defense

The Timberwolves inau-gurated the new football stadium in Randle by win-ning their second straight game with a suffocating defense combined with a career-best running night by Kody Crowder.

Morton/White Pass forced three first half turn-overs (two interceptions by freshman Rylon Kolb, one by Crowder) and lim-ited the Mules to just 41 total yards for the game. Wahkiakum’s two scores came after a blocked punt which they recovered on the MWP nine-yard line and a 90-yard kickoff return in the fourth quarter.

“I would say the early success is the focus of this team,” coach Kenny Chee-seman said. “They have worked hard and want a successful season to bring back some respect for the communities. It is a great

getting worse. It wasn’t that the wheels came off, they just weren’t really ever on. The longest drive for Wah-kiakum was six plays and they ran just 31 plays for the game. They went three-and-out in all four second half possessions (four total yards).

Crowder, a junior run-ning back, rushed 36 times for 202 yards and a trio of touchdowns. His first touchdown came on a fluke play in the second quarter as Crowder caught a ricocheting shot-gun-snap off quarterback Cameron Sume’s hands and ran 21 yards for the score. After his second score (a nine-yard fourth quarter run), Crowder capped his night with a third touchdown in which he recovered his own fumble in the end zone after it was jarred loose at the three-yard line.

Morton/White Pass led 6-0 after one and 14-7 at the half and end of the third quarter. They sealed the game with 22 fourth quarter points, and held the ball for 35 of the 48 minutes.

Besides Crowder’s three touchdowns, Daniel Park began the scoring on a 15-yard reception from Sume, and sophomore Daniel Bates ended it with a two-yard run with 27 seconds remaining.

The Timberwolves did struggle in the middle part of the game allowing a punt to be blocked, tossing two interceptions, missing on a fourth down and losing two fumbles (inside the Mule 20) on a six-possession stretch from the middle of the second quarter to the end of the third quarter.

Morton/White Pass ran 62 times gaining 313 total yards against the Mules. Wahkiakum was limited to 41 total yards on 31 of-fensive plays. They ran 20 times for 16 yards and were 3 of 15 passing for 25 more.

“Due to the combination we have the numbers and the talent to make a very good team,” Cheeseman said. “But also this year to make a team you must have dedicated athletes who want

“This week will be an-other huge game,” Cheese-man said. “I know we will stay focused and work hard. It will be a good test, as the last two games have been for this team.”

NOTES: Morton and White Pass haven’t had great recent success against Wahkiakum. Morton had lost its previous 11 games to the Mules last winning 19-12 in 1996.

Mossyrock visited Win-lock last Friday and fell 29-14 to the Cardinals.

“Friday’s game was bet-ter offensively (a little) than the week before, but weaker defensively,” coach Rusty Nelson said. “Our defense gave up too much on the outside edge. We had talked all week about taking on blocks and keeping our out-side free, but we got sealed and cracked by receivers way too much. At times the offense showed some spark but was very inconsistent in execution. That is my fault because I haven’t done a

good job of play calling, so we all have something to work on and improve.”

The Vikings fell behind 8-0 after a quarter, but tied it at the half on senior Rudy Kaech’s 44-yard run. Winlock took a 16-8 lead early in the third, but Kaech scored again from five-yards away to make it 16-14 after three frames. Winlock scored 13 points in the last 12 minutes for the final margin.

“We got some good play from Shaun Stevens and Seth Richardson, both freshmen,” Nelson said. “Shaun and Seth came in and made plays when up-perclassmen weren’t get-ting the job done.”

Kaech finished with 125 of Mossyrock’s 167 rushing yards on 19 carries. Quar-terback Anthony St. Pierre completed 3 of his 5 passes for 50 yards, including a 40-yard strike to Lucas Allen.

Winlock amassed 370 total yards (212 ground, 158 air) and matched the Vikings’ two turnovers.

Mossyrock (0-2 overall, 0-2 league) will play on the road for the second straight week visiting Pe Ell (0-2, 0-2) this Friday.

“Pe Ell will be a good game for us to start play-ing real football and be physical,” Nelson said. “We expect our guys to respond to adversity and emerge stronger from the experi-ence.

A Morton family dog is running free in a fenced yard, thanks to volunteers from Fences For Fido. The nonprofit agency based out of Portland, Ore. donates volunteer time and supplies and constructs fences for dogs that are chained.

“Chained dogs can be a problem for people and neighbors because chain dogs can be more aggres-sive, more dangerous to children, more likely to bite and more territorial,” Vince Baker, co chair and con-struction manager for Fenc-es For Fido, said. “They are a pack animal and they need the interaction with the fam-ily.”

After a Napavine fam-ily received a fence through the Fences For Fido pro-gram for their dog, Franz, Morton’s own Lily and her family were nominated for a fence so Lily could live tether-free.

Baker, who is a software engineer, got involved with Fences For Fido because it is a very real, tangible way to help animals.

“Our very first dog lives here in Portland,” Baker said. “His name is Chopper; he is pretty much the poster child.”

Chopper spent six years

chained up in the backyard, all but forgotten.

“Fences For Fido changed my dog’s life and my life. I never knew how unhappy he was on a chain. Chopper is the most hap-piest dog in the world! … I love my backyard even more now and Chopper and Fat Cat love it too!” Chop-per’s owner, Keith, said.

Baker said his group doesn’t judge why people have chained their dogs—the fact that they are will-ing to have a fence put up means they care about their dogs.

“There are lots of rea-sons why dogs are chained,” Baker said. “It’s not just be-cause (owners) don’t like their dogs.”

He noted that many of 103 families Fences for Fido has helped in just a little more than a year face physical or financial limita-tions preventing them from putting up a fence.

“Eventually, they dis-tance themselves from their dog—perpetuating the problem,” Baker said.

Fences For Fido put up real fences with wooden posts and welded wire fenc-ing for the selected families.

A professional welder donates his time to weld the chain link gates. The group also provides free spay/neuter vouchers and dog

houses if needed—a com-plete package worth about $1,000.

Want to help? You can nominate a dog for a fence, donate money and materi-als—but you can also vol-unteer to help out on other projects.

two hours each way on a hot summer day to build a fence for Lily—a huge fence! It was amazing be-cause we thought the build would get cancelled since we didn’t have enough vol-unteers. Enough people stepped up and we got it

done,” volunteer Erin Fields said.

Baker said whatever you can do is appreciated.

“We are all volunteers; we all have regular jobs so to speak,” Baker said. “We feel passionate about do-ing something tangible that makes a difference.”

Fences For Fido has some builds coming up in

October in Longview and Kelso. The nonprofit would like to start a new southwest Washington chapter, but need enough volunteers to do it, Baker said.

Baker said that when the group started in May 2009, volunteers put up one fence

a month.“We do about six a month

now,” he said. “It takes an average of three hours.”

Baker and Fields said they really enjoy watching the dogs discovering life off the chain.

A new Morton resident will be teaching six periods at Morton High School for the 2010/2011 school year.

Matt Henry, Morton’s newest history and contract studies teacher, is no strang-er to small town life, hav-ing lived, substituted and coached at the Harrington and Sprague school districts for the last four years.

“Morton is bigger in every way,” Henry stated. “Both the town and the school district are bigger than Harrington.”

Henry stated that he is excited to actually watch a football game with 22 play-ers on the field again as well as be a part of the new co-op sports programs, having been coaching at Harrington and Sprague when they started their combination sports team.

“I’ve been through it be-fore so I feel like I might be able to help,” Henry com-mented. “I can try to make things a little easier and give a different perspective.”

Henry also stated that he enjoys coaching and he is willing to try to help out any way he can, having coached football, basketball and ju-nior high track.

Henry received his as-sociate’s degree from Spo-kane Falls Community Col-lege, his bachelor’s degree from Western Washington University and his teaching certificate at Eastern Wash-ington University.

Henry is a history ma-jor and saw the job online. He and his wife (who were married this last July) are in the process of moving to Morton.

“I’m thrilled to get the

job here and excited to get the challenge to teach full time,” Henry said.

Henry also stated that the staff, administration and students have been very welcoming and helpful.

“You really don’t have an idea how much work goes into the planning until you get it thrown onto your lap,” Henry commented. “It’s a lot of fun though be-cause they’re actually my

courses.”Henry said that he is

excited to have the job and that he can’t wait to be com-fortable in the situation.

“I think being in an op-portunity to help raise our scores this year and the usu-al getting to know the kids and the town are what I’m most excited for,” Henry said. “I’m looking forward to the school year, every-thing about it.”

McCurry blends traditional, contemporary in art classBy tara GiddensThe East County Journal

“All art requires cour-age,” a quote from Anne Tucker, is one of the first things students may notice posted in the art classroom at Mossyrock High School.

The classroom also has images by popular artists like Leonardo da Vinci or Edgar Degas, but it’s the quote that new art teacher Susan McCurry hopes stu-dents take the most from.

“It is courageous to cre-ate something on paper and then hang it on the wall … for the rest of your class to see. It’s like a part of you hanging up there,” McCurry said.

Courage is the theme in the art class, and McCurry said she hopes her students come in with open minds and willing to try new things.

“The goals are that you will learn something and hopefully, that we’re go-ing to be touching enough genres and styles, … that you will find something that you didn’t know you liked,” McCurry said.

McCurry graduated from Mossyrock High School in 2005. After graduation, she attended Seattle Pacific University where she re-ceived a degree in studio art with an emphasis in illustra-tion.

While McCurry does not currently have a teaching certificate, she explained she is in the process of re-ceiving a conditional teach-ing certificate.

The conditional certifi-cate will allow her to teach at Mossyrock for two years while she is going through a teacher’s preparation pro-gram. Once the program is complete, McCurry said she can get a residency certifi-cate.

McCurry teaches two periods of generic art at Mossyrock and said she hopes to try a variety of projects in her classes.

While she said she wants to continue Yost’s tradition of portraits, she also wants to have the students work with print making and com-ics.

“(I’m) just trying to ap-peal to maybe a variety of kids (for whom) realism isn’t their cup of tea,” Mc-Curry said, “I’m looking forward to making the proj-ects with the students and…seeing them try something that they haven’t done be-fore.

McCurry’s favorite art-ists include contemporary artist Russ Mills and Nor-man Rockwell. Her least favorite artist is Marcel Duchamps. Her favorite type of art is acrylic paint-ing, McCurry said, and she also mentioned her favorite flowers.

“Sunflowers or red car-nations, feel free to bring them in,” McCurry laughed.

As an artist herself, Mc-Curry said she often finds

inspiration for her work in the people around her.

“… If I care about you or if you’re involved in my life in some way, you’re going to end up, somehow, in the art that I’m doing. I guess it’s sort of a disclaimer: don’t be my friend if you don’t want to end up in my art,” McCurry laughed.

She said she also enjoys being outside and using na-ture as inspiration as well.

When McCurry isn’t teaching at Mossrock, she is either working at the after-school-program in Onalas-ka, working on her own art or spending time with her family, friends or her boy-friend.

McCurry said she is ex-cited to get to know her stu-dents and share her knowl-edge of art.

She also shared advice for her students:

“Come in ready to work hard, ready to learn, and if you do that, you’ll do well.”

Susan McCurry returns to Mossyrock to become the new art teacher at the high school. McCurry graduated from Mossyrock in 2005 and will be adding comics and print making to her lesson plans.

Treasure trove of button coins found near Kosmos in 1960s

Norma Benson/Courtesy Photol

Pictured here are twelve of our residents on our most recent outing. We spent a beautiful day at Mt. St. Helens! The highlight of the trip was watching the movie on the eruption of the mountain at The Johnston Ridge visitors center. We all had so much fun!

This is a Phoenix button (about the size of a quar-ter), one of many discovered around 1964 by David Benson, of Kosmos, in an old metal pot buried beneath a stump. The buttons were used for trade by Indians, trappers and early explorers of the Northwest in the 1830s and 1840s. They were made between 1807 and 1820 for uniforms of the Haitian army during the reign of King Henri Christophe.

An unusual treasure was found near Kosmos in about 1964 by the late David Benson, a road construc-tion foreman for Kosmos Timber Company/U.S. Ply-wood. The origin of his find is a fabulous mystery with ties to pre-European settle-ment of the Northwest.

While constructing a road, possibly near where Quartz Creek flows into the Cispus River, Benson and a fellow worker discovered a brass or copper pot filled with what looked like old brass coins. None of them were recognizable as mod-ern currency and almost ev-ery one had a hole punched near its edge.

According to Benson’s

daughter Karen, who now lives in Yakima, the pot was found buried under a large stump that her father and a “powder monkey” by the name of ”Frenchie” Roy were preparing to blast out of the ground.

Benson and Roy discov-ered the pot while using an iron bar to poke holes in the ground beneath the stump, into which they planned to place dynamite. It appeared to them that the pot had been buried for many years.

The pot was handcrafted and about six inches tall and perhaps fourteen inches in diameter and had a bail han-dle. It was said to have con-tained hundreds of coins, noted Karen, but several

fellow workers each took a handful home and her father ended up with only a few, along with the pot.

She still has ten of the brass coins that are loose and another six that have been attached to a chain necklace along with a “North West Company” beaver token dated 1820, also found in the pot. Her father even-tually sold the empty pot and Benson believes it may have ended up in the Lewis County Historical Museum in Chehalis, but with no ref-erence to its origin.

Most of the brass “coins” turned out to be buttons well known to historians. Their fascinating journey to the Northwest is connected with important events in Ameri-can and Northwest history.

They are called Phoe-nix buttons and were made for King Henri Christophe of Haiti sometime between 1807 and 1820. There are about a half-dozen sizes and styles. All are made of brass and have an image of a bird—the mythical Phoe-nix—and an inscription in French that says, “Je Renais de mes Cendres,” which translates to, “I am reborn from my ashes.”

The Phoenix was King Christophe’s coat of arms and the buttons were at-tached to the uniforms of his army. Each button included a number corresponding to the regiment for which it was made.

Christophe is known for his part in the slave re-volt and Haitian Revolution against their French rulers in the late 1790s and early 1800s. During the revolu-tion a ragtag Haitian Army surprisingly defeated the French.

Partly due to his army’s demoralizing losses in Haiti, which left him strapped for cash, French Emperor Na-poleon Bonaparte sold the Louisiana Purchase to Presi-dent Thomas Jefferson in 1803 for $15 million. That famous transaction doubled the size of the United States at that time.

Christophe’s rule in Haiti was tenuous and he commit-ted suicide in 1820. A large quantity of the Phoenix but-tons somehow ended up in the hands of Nathaniel Wy-eth, who worked for a Bos-ton company that sold and shipped ice to the Caribbean and elsewhere.

Convinced that he could make a fortune in the new frontier of the West, Wyeth left New England in 1834 and led an expedition to Or-egon along a route that a de-cade later would become the Oregon Trail.

He set up a trading post called Fort William on what is now Sauvie Island on the Columbia River near Port-land. The May Dacre, a ship

he had commissioned in Boston that was full of trad-ing goods (and probably in-cluding the buttons), sailed around Cape Horn and met Wyeth on the Columbia River.

Wyeth intended to com-pete with Hudson’s Bay Company, stationed at Fort Vancouver, in the fur and salmon trade. The Phoenix buttons, with a metal loop on the back removed, be-came part of the currency used in trading with Indians and others in the area.

Wyeth failed in his at-tempt to successfully com-pete with Hudson’s Bay Company. He sold Fort William to his rivals and returned to New England in 1836. His button “coins,” however, have since been found in a number of loca-tions, mostly on the West Coast.

According to current research on Phoenix but-tons, the most ever found was about 200 in a cache located at the mouth of the Cowlitz River where it meets the Columbia. Those researchers, apparently, are not aware of the Benson find in Lewis County.

How and when the pot of buttons and other tokens made its way to Eastern Lewis County is an enigma. Also part of this intriguing puzzle is who buried the pot beneath the stump and why they never returned to col-lect it.

More than likely the pot was placed there by an In-dian resident of the area. Indians from the Big Bot-tom country of East Lewis County are known to have traded furs at Hudson’s Bay Company’s trading post near present-day Toledo as early as 1833.

In 1846, Oregon Terri-tory was established and the Hudson’s Bay Compa-ny abandoned the area and retreated to Canada. The first permanent white set-tlers came to West Lewis County in the 1850s and to East Lewis County a couple of decades later. By that time, the old trading but-tons would not likely have had any monetary value to the settlers.

It would be interesting to know if any buttons or other coins or tokens from the Kosmos find, other than Karen’s, are still in the Lewis County area. If you know of any, please contact the East County Journal.

Owners and employees of roughly 30 local busi-nesses and organizations attended a community fair to help inform citizens of services they offer.

Pat Hart, a member of the Morton Action Committee, recently organized the fair, which took place on Sept. 8 at the Bob Lyle Community Center in Morton.

ees to Centralia College professors and everyone in between, the fair offered a wide array of useful infor-mation.

Hart stated that he would be organizing another fair in the future in hopes of promoting the businesses and organizations as well as educating citizens of ser-vices that they may not be aware of.

Roughly an hour into the event, Hart said that he was hoping more people would turn out, but that he was pleased with how the event was running.

The fair lasted three hours, which gave time for the attendees to visit each of the tables set up. Even the

employees and owners had a chance to wander around and visit the other tables.

Members of roughly 30 local businesses and orga-nizations share information to interested community members at the Sept. 8 community fair.

The burn ban is still in ef-fect in all of Lewis County and won’t be lifted until sometime in October, Fred Chapman, the Lewis County Fire Marshal, said.

"Until we have … a full week of significant rainfall, the ban will remain in place,” Chapman said.

He reminded that although the minor burnable fuels feel damp, the heavy fuels—like downed trees that can burn at very high temperatures for

Burn ban likely in place until Octoberhours—are “still very dry.”

“There is a lot of heavy fuel on the east end,” he not-ed.

Chapman said that the ban is traditionally lifted after Oct. 1; he expects to lift it be-tween Oct. 1 and 15.

You can learn more about permits and burn bans by calling the fire marshal at (360) 740-1146. The office is in the Lewis County Public Services building, located at 2025 NE Kresky Avenue in Chehalis.
