Seems like yeterday By Lis Masi
50 YEARS GO (1937)
In Snohomish, "Kla-Ha-Ya Days" was chosen by judges of a slogan contest to be an annual celebration featuring a combined water carnival on the Snohomish River and a street celebration Aug 21-22.  The $5 prize was divided between Mr. Edward Lysons and Charle E. Hoheisel, who submitted the winning word in different combinations.  The word is the Indian word for "Hello", used in greetings among Indian tribes and pioneers.
