Iy Washing“ Slut-'PtoEnu Commiulon
Washington is one of the ranking
winter sports areas in the United
States, with some of the best ski
terrian to be found anywhere.
Of the estimated 600,00 skiiers in

,There are upwards of 20 ski areas
in the state, the principal ones be
ing Mt. Rainier, Mr. Baker, Mt. Spo
kane, Leavenworth, Deed Park and

Washington skiiers spend an “asti
mated $2,000,000 annually for
equipment, special clothing. trans
portation, food, lodging, etc.

Holiday Week
Sees N 0 Change
in S. S; Standings
While a considerable number of
votes in The Courier-Reporter's Bil
ver Sales Slip Campaign were turn
ed in during the past week. there
. was no change in the relative stand
ings of the several contestants now
in the race to secure the SIOO in
cash which this paper will donate
early in February.
Many people. we find, have been
led to believe that the contest has
come to a close because the label
and wrapper feature has been dis
contnued. To make up for the
double feature provided by the la
bels and wrapper. the count upon
the actual sales slips has now been
doubled. This will give all the par
ticipating merchants an equal
chance for their votes to count.
Many contestants, we have also
found. are passing up opportunities
to get votes for their favorite or
ganizations by failing to ask for the
sales slips at certain places. For
instance. both Mr. Oliver at Brick’s
Service Station and at Larry's Bar
ber shop are cooperating in this
campaign. Both will be glad to
give the slips when purchases are
madeiftheyareremindedofit.
Ordinarily these places do not make
out slips—so the slips slip their
minds frequently.
It'ssuchasimple mattertosave
the anointed sales slips and so val
uable to some organisation to get
them! Be sure to save the she
