Doing Pretty Good So Far
BOATING ON THE UMPQUA
i 'i
By Charles V- Stanton
Several tales of canoe trips down the Umpqua river have
been broueht to lisrht as the result of publicity attending: the
recent exploit by a group of Roseburg- Explorer Scouts who
traveled from The Forks to Reedsport.
Guy Gordon, now serving as U.S. senator from Oregon,
is one who was not as successful as some of the other ad
venturers, but who could tell of many experiences on a canoe
trip down the river, including a night's rest in a hog pen.
It seems that along in the early 1900's Guy was paying
court to Miss Allen a courtship which was successful, as
she later became Mrs. Cordon. It was the custom of her
family to spend the summers in their beach cottage at New
port, which in those days was one of the most popular sum
mer resorts In Oregon. Cordon and Earl Strong, who
now resides at Rice Jlill, decided they would travel down
the Umpqua to tidewater and then hike up the coast to
visit the Allen family.
Fail At Last Hurdle
The canoe went smoothly until the adventurers reached
Sawyer rapids, the last piece of fast water above tidewater.
There the canoe capsized and was battered to pieces.
The two young men rescued their packs and set out on
foot.
The first night they stopped at the ranch home of
John Shadle, who, perhaps a little suspicious because of
their unkempt and oedragglcd appearance, afforded them
no beds inside the house, but permitted them to sleep on a
pile of hay in the hog pen. So a future U.S. senator and
,his companion spent the night with the hogs.
""They. tramped on up the coast, following the beach
' wherever possible, and Guy continued his courtship at the
beautiful Newport beach.
River Trip To Be Popular
The canoe trip recently made to Reedsport probably
will be accepted in coming years as an event which led to
establishment of a new recreational industry.
For several years experienced boatmen and guides
1 have been taking parties on the exciting trip down the
Rogue river from Grants Pass to tidewater. It is such a
thrilling ride that reservations usually must be made many
months in advance. Guides are kept busy throughout the
entire season.
J. he Umpqua river offers equal possibilities. It is
perhaps a little more dangerous than the Rogue and would
require a few more portages. An experienced boatman,
with the right kind of equipment, vill come along some
day, however, and set up a thriving recreational business.
Because of the danger involved, it should be determined
that those engaging in boat trips down the river for hire
demonstrate their ability before being granted guide li
censes and permission to take parties on tho exciting trip.
However, it has been proven on several occasions that
tho river can be navigated by canoe and skiff. Eventually
someone will capitalize on the recreational possibility. It
may be that the publicity attending the adventure by Rose
burg's explorer scouts, will be the event from which the
commercial enterprize gains its inspiration.

For years the Cs have been plan
ning a trip lo Europe. They en
Untied passage a year ahead on the
Queen Elizabeth, and for their re
turn, the Queen Mary, or wax it
the other way around? They want
ed so mueh to travel on those
famous ships! At the time for the
takeoff to New York by plane, the
l's received word that the Queens
would not be available "reserved
for carrying troops."
Of all the straws in the wind
that struck me as the most indica
tive! There was no rumor about
that niece of preparedness. There
had been other 'straws' too. but
somehow reading those words in
a letter . . . well, 1 went to the
woods until I could find my peace.
One who knew annul such things
told me once that the Hiblc verse
"For my yoke .is easy and my
burden lii'.hl" referred to the fact
that a well-adjusted yoke made
the carrying of the burden so much
easier; that the important thing
was to sec that the yoke fitted
the shoulders like the pack fitting,
I suppose, the way the Scouts are
taught to adjust it. So if there
should he a war ahead, tne im
portant thing for us stay-at-homes
is to make sure that our "yoke,"
our daily thinking, is of such a
character that we shall be able
to go through our days with faith
and confidence.
I must admit my "yoke" wasn't
fitting at all well the day I read
that tho Queens were reserved for
troops ... so I went to the woods
a while and found there what I
always find there, lsnt it a fact
that trees have a universal lan
guage? Without doubt mothers all
over the world are loving trees
as I love them. If I were to lay
my hand lovingly on the trunk, as
I have seen my dear dad do so
many times, and look up at a
beautiful tree, or a tiny tree just
set out for perhaps others lo en
jt.y, it would need no words to
'speak' my thought to that other
lover of trees. The day will come
when we shall all speak a common
tongue just as now we share love
(or beautiful things.
Ann: we shall be no more con
cerned with '.he precise wav in
which we shall worship the Giver of
all t.oort: "tor the earth shall tv
, filled with the knowledge of the
i glory o( the Lord, as the waters
I cover the sea."

Russians Barred From
U.S. Estate Inheritance
SANTA MONICA, Calif. A
superior court judge, Orlando H.
Rhodes, has denied the petition of
six residents of Russia to qualify
as heirs in the $125,000 estate of a
local pawnbroker, holding that no
reciprocal inheritance rights exist
between this country and the Soviet
union.
Under the California probate
code, no foreign citizen may in
herit unless U.S. citizens have simi
lar rights in that country.
Charles Kalz, attorney for the
Russians, claimed the reciprocal
rights were established in a con
ference between thj late President
Roosevelt and Soviet Foreign Min
ister Litvinoff.
The estate is that of Arthur B.
Weinstein, who died here June 10,
1947. Katz said the petitioners in
clude a brother, three sisters and
two nieces of Weinstein.
