BROOKINGS-HARBOR P IL O T THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 26, 1957 ODE TO OREGON (The following poem was written by Mrs. Jam es Ham, who lives in Harbor). She wrote it for her daughter, Mrs. Jam es unningham, Faxboro, Mass, to encourage them on their trip out here this coming summer. I've traveled far and I've traveled wide I've climbed the mountains and watched the tide I've stopped at ghost towns along the way And I passed through places I wanted to stay. I went back East and I stayed there a while But I came back West, O 're many a mile Iv e a little house now, right down near the beach re the Ocean gets rough, but the waves can’t reach And the sea gulls are calling forever more When the sun sinks down on the oceans rim * Brilliant with colors, some bright, some dim And the waves grow calm, and the sea gulls rest It's the hour of day I love the best.

Fortier Attorneys for Administratrix Dated and first published Septem ber 26, 1957 Date of Last Publication, October 24, 1957 It's a lonely place when the skies are gray And we leave the beach til a brighter day When the sun comes out then all is well And the children run over the sands, pell mell I'm sure if I wasn't just seventy-one I'd run with the children, and I'd have fun But I’m fully aware that my years have been spent And my get-up and go has just got-up and went I really don't mind as I think with a grin Of all the grand places my get-up has been. Next year at this time we'll wake up some morn And you'll be here to see our Oregon So I'll write you now of a few things you'll see When you arrive on the coast to visit me. FIRST, the bluest sky, and the sea so near And the driftwood washed high on the shore, tie r on tier The rocks and the shells strewn over the beach And acres of E aster L ilies, all within reach I'll take you to see the salmon run And the sheep in their pens, where the shearing is done We'Ll go up in the jeep to the High Divide Where the sheep and the cattle graze, side by side. We'll go to Gold Beach and prospect for gold And we'll search for agates and treasures untold Then right round the point where there's no undertow We'll take off our shoes and a'wading we'll go We'll go to Rogue River, aways up the coast On it's banks we may have a fish-fry or a roast And we'll watch this bold river as it hurries on past As we find a good place for a line to be cast So if you like fishing, to the Rogue we will go Smelts are used here for bait, so just bring your gear As all rivers abound in good fishing out here. We'll go to the Redwoods, so tall and grand The oldest trees in all the land And we’ll picnic there neath their cool clean shade Where beautiful picnic grounds have here been made Their dignified grandeur, their width and their heights Are a real must to see, as you're seeing the sights All this is a part as you'll later agree That you'll see in Oregon while visiting me. I must end this letter, not much else to do Lots of words here are written, from me to you H ere's my closing lines and I feel they'll prove true When you come to Oregon, you'll like it here too! costs only... w IT COSTS ONLY ABOUT 4<f A DAY to have an extension phone for your kitchen, workshop, bedside — anywhere in your house.
