To The Eagle: I have blissfully sat by and been an armchair critic too long. As a tax-paying voting citizen of our community, I cannot be indifferent to either the mayor or the volunteer firemen's criticism. One must know that the mayor is essentially a full-time volunteer position receiving a paltry salary of $250 a month to supervise about seven full-time employees. As a volunteer, I believe the requirements are to serve your community or organization to the best of your ability with no expectation of compensation. One may learn more about...

RAIN--We ended last week with some rain and began the week with showers, plain ole rain and some good, gusty winds, which brought down a lot of leaves along the roadways; definitely seemed more like Fall! I'd just about forgotten how miserable it can be tromping around in a parking lot in the rain! The good news out of the rainy stretch was that it sure helped calm down those fire fears, as things were tinder dry out there. From now on, we'll be thoroughly enjoying those upcoming dry days, even though they may be shorter and the evening hours...

To The Eagle: I love reading The Wahkiakum County Eagle. However, I dislike reading about the Mayor's personal attack on an upstanding citizen like Jerry DeBriae. Jerry has spent his adult life devoted to the Fire Dept. and the town of Cathlamet. I think the answer is for the Mayor to resign. Paul Bjornsgard Naselle...
