Dearo Martha,
I am truly confused .and
hurt by an incident 1vhich
. took place not long ago,
.1 1 and I would like you to
tell me if I did 1vrong.
;L friend of mi.ne tvas ex-
pecting a baby, and I
thought I \IIOuld 1 ike to
gJ a baby shO\ver .
J h,OII many. peop-
le I cop f ;Lt
into my home and then l.n-
Yited a group of our rrutual
friends.
;:ell I thought it 1:ent off
very 1ve ll, averyone seemed
to have a good and she
got some lovely gifls.
few days later she called
me up and really gave ma a
bad time. It seems that some
friends of hers I had not
invited got 1vind of the 'sho111er
and ash:ed her hOI'/ Come they
had not been invited.
I tried to explain that I
had only ,aslced people who
we .. ln'low (Martha some of l
these women were ones I had
never even met or kne1v exis-
ted), but she said that. I
should have let her ln0\11 that
I 1vas planning a sho1-1er and
let her . give me a list of
names of 11hom to invite.
fiartha, I feel a111ful, I
planned the sho1.,er as a sur-
prise and I certainly could
not have done that if l had .
to ask her who to invite.
Do you think that I should
4pologize t,o anyone?

Dear C and 'll,
If anyone deserves an
apology it is .yolt , Your
friend uncouth and un-
gratefuf'to have complain-
ed about the ''laY you hand-
1 ed her shO\;er.
There is no lat: 1vhich
lir.1i ts the number of baby
showers which an ex) ectant
mother may have, and if a
,.,oman has more than one
circle of friends, it is j
perfectly proper for each
of them to gi vc her a sho1v-
er.
Since you were to
the number of guests that '
you could accomodate in
your hot:le you did the wise
thing to invite only mut-
ual friends ..
These acquaintances of
your friends who complain-
ed to her at not being in-
vited showed pdor taste and
she herself s hO\JCd poorer
taste in echoing their com-
plaints to you.
Sincerely,

ClL\PTBH II I: In the car ly
days of Chugiak llistory,
on the Glenn Highway,
sometimes known as the Palm-
er lligh,.,ay, \tas extremely
light. .
Park's
a business at l'i'hat is 'now
knO\'In as Parksville, and they
conducted a traffic survey to
dPtermine the of
their plan. During a nice
warm Sunday in spring,; they
counted as high as t1venty cars
in one hour . This, 1 believe
1vas on a holiday.
During the cold winter days
one did not pass a stalled car
on the high1vay, but sto) ped
with an offer to help. The
unfortunate might be your
neighbor and he might be
there without help for more
than an hour.
In the Hinter, the narrow
trail, optimistically called
a high11ay, was as slick as it
is no1v, 111i thout the advantage,
most of the tit;Je of gravel.
In the spring it was plagued
by "frost boils," great pud<l1<'s
of soupy mud with no apparent
bottem.
One of .the largest of these
which appeared every year was
at mile 18, right in front of
the present Gib Reid residence.
One simply hit these full
force and 1vi th the JPrayer that
they Hould'be able to get th-
rough without hanging up. To
stop or stall was simply to
sit and Ivai t for someone 11i th
a long to11 line to come along
and snake one out.
Summers meant clouds of
choking dust. It \'IUS aluays
advisable to space driving
that _t,yo cars 1vare not trav,.l-
ing together.
"'1. great deal of aid to travel-
ers thr9ugh Chugiak were the
trucks of r-;ielke '.Jay and Ilat-
anuska !laid. Drivers of these
trucks always stopped to offer
assistance if needed.
