Cora Wear in, a teacher in Leaburg Grade School, is Lane County's veteran leader, receiving her emerald pin this year marking 30 years in the 4-H program. "It's handy leading a club at home," Wearin said. "We've got the lapidary equipment" here in the garage and workshop "nd a couple tons of rock lying around. Besides with both Lola and me leading clubs we're one rock club ahead. '''' Rocks have held a fascination for .Wearin ever since he moved to the McKenzie River farmstead as a 13-year-old in 1910. That was the year his parents moved from Kansas to the fertile stretch along the McKenzie River the same 36 acres where Everett Wearin and his wife have lived for 36 years. BUY ROCK But it's only within the last five years that the interest in rocks fantaiied into a hobby. It's something that Cora's just as interested in as I am," he said. "We must have at least two tons of rocks that we've lugged home from Montana, Canada, the Da- kotas. Idaho, and Eastern Oregon. With all these rocks piled up it was high time we did something with . them." , Their first piece of lapidary equipment was an inexpensive rock saw, Wearin recalls: "We wore it to a nubbin in two years, zipping through rocks to discover how the insides looked." One of the big thrills of the hobby for the Wearins as well as for the 4-H Rocky Rockhounds is projecting thin slices of rock on the movie screen. . "It's an , exercise in imagina tion," the leader said. "We can see all sorts of fantastic things desert sunsets, palm trees along the beach, stormy skies, even grasshoppers and dinosaur in these rock slices." Three years ago Cora surprised her husband with a deluxe model diamond saw fully equipped with automatic water spray cooling system and a shatter-proof plastic cover. The diamond saw was our undoing," Wearin admits. "Now we ve invested in the works trimmers, sanders, tumblers, pol isher, and grinders." "What's more," he added, "we can't even plan a vacation with out a copy of the 'Rockhound Guide' in our hand." LIKES TO TRADE This summer the Wearins will pack their camping gear and rock hunting equipment in the station wagon and head for Montana in search of rare agates. , Almost as much fun as hunting the rocks are visiting with other rockhounds, cajoling them to di vulge the secret whereabouts for rich hunting grounds, and : hag gling over trades. Oregon "thun der eggs and petrified wood have high priority in trading, Wearin volunteered. "I know now where they get the name "rockhound'," Mrs, Wearin. said. "Everett can sniff another rockhound miles away no matter whether we re in Cana da or Eastern Oregon.. And he'd rather trade than eat." But it is not necessary to travel thousands of miles to find valua ble rock specimens, Wearin says. Some of his favorite haunts are In Lane County. ' In the business of buying young dairy and beef animals which he feeds out for sale, Wearin has discovered that business and hob by dovetail.to perfection. "When I'm"- looking for stock I also keep an eye peeled for good rock-hunting land," he ex plains. "That's how I discovered the petrified wood near Pleasant Hill." ' Do people mind letting him rock hunt or take specimens? No, says Wearin. But he's a strong believer in showing his apprecia tion by presenting the landown ers with samples of his hobby.

SHARE THEIR HOBBY Currently, Wearin is collecting iargi size specimens of rock and petrified wood to carry out a landscape plan. But it won't be a second Peterson's Rock Garden. he quickly adds. His ambitions extend only to another planter his wile wants in the front yard. He has already completed one three-sided 14xl8-foot planter. But the absorbing phase of their hobby now is sharing it with twelve 4-H'ers. "They won't get around to us ing the saw this year," he said. "But they'll use the tumbler, grinder, polisher and trimmer. These pieces are not as tricky or dangerous as the saw. Better yet, he added, "they'll know a rock when they're out on a tour." ' "I like to think of these young sters being able to classify rocks for adults and knowing some thing about the cost and opera tion of lapidary equipment. Rocks could become a hobby these youngsters will enjoy a lifetime ' The Wearins are making sure it's a hobby the 4-H'ers will nev er forget. Already plans are shaping up for rock-hunting ex peditions to the Oregon coast for agates when tides are at lowest ebb this spring, to Pleasant Hill for petrified wood, to the Thun- del Egg Beds near Madras, to Bear Creek for the rare moss agates, and along Crooked River in search of the famous Sheep Creek agates. Every 4-H Rocky . Rockhound has a reward to anticipate. In ad dition to the specimen boards and exhibits they'll complete for display at the Lane 4-H Fair, and the bookends, tie clasps, belt buckles, and jewelry they will make, Wearin has promised one of his custom-made pieces for each of the Rocky Rockhounds.
