Old Timer Writes Randy
Slim Emert Improves
The Blue Mountain Eagle re
cently reported that Slim Env
ert Is on the mend. He was lrv
jured a few weeks ago when
his tractor and semi-trailer rig
left Highway 207 on the Fair-
view Camp downgrade after los
ing its air brakes. Mr. Emert
suffered severe facial lacera
tions, three fractured ribs and
a punctured lung in the mishap.
He was transporting a hay
stacker and a Scout vehicle from
his lone ranch to the ranch at
Izee at the time. The truck hit
a bump and braking was lost
at the same time. He tried to
slow down by climbing an em
bankment, pushing a log about
50 feet before coming to a stop.
Mr. and Mrs. O. H. Bryson of
lone ; who were following Mr.
Emert quickly went to his assistance.
Mr. Emert was taken to Pio
neer Memorial Hospital and was
expected to be released about a
week ago. It was reported Mr.
Emert walked away from the
accident,; in which the steering
wheel was pushed back and
twisted by the forces, coming
into play. The hay stacker is
being rebuilt but the Scout was
a total wreck.
Mr. Emert also lost about
$14,000 worth of alfalfa hay due
to a fire at the lone, ranch re
cently. Cause was believed to
be spontaneous combustion and
only a small portion was cover
ed by insurance.
. HughU. Br Smith who signs
himself "The Condon Kid", re
cently wrote to Randall rotor-
son. Mr. Smith wondered If
there were any older Oregon
born riders than he was. lie
rode In Heppner In 1906. This
was along with A. D. More, the
Jones boys and others at the
Stockyards on the 4th of July.
He recounted riding a black
horse called Black Tomm, Art
Miner's horse. He got on the
horse which was tied up with
the blind on. Someone had
sawed his hackamore string and
they opened the gate and let
him out In three jumps he pull
ed It right off his head. He got
behind the saddle apparently in
a bounce. However, the horse
gave another Jump and Hughle
was back In the saddle. He
grated the horn of the saddle
and the horse went bucking and
running down the railroad track.
The pickup men got him off
the horse. Then Ad More came
out on a gray mare who buck
ed a ways then bucked back
and hit the gate with her head
which killed her. Ad lost to Ha,
Ha.

Pastor Mensch Tours Potash Mine
Are you moving? Subscribers
are reminded to notify The Gazette-Times
of new addresses,
and please include your old address.
Pastor and Mrs. Rudy Mensch
have returned from vacation.
Mr. Mensch had an unusual ex
perience of visiting a Potash
mine 3000 feet under the ground.
Air is pumped into the mine
and the mine was comfortable,
not too hot or not too cold. There
was no discomfort in breathing.
The mine tunnels are lined up
like streets and avenues, nam
ed and numbered for 10 miles.
The mine has 8000 feet of
conveyor belt. Potash is used for
fertilizer, drugs, medicines, cm
na, clothes. Similar to coal in
density it is mined in many col
ors in blends of red, white, blue
grey. The mine is in Saskatch
ewan.
Travel through the mine is by
a $ cylinder Jeep that travels
20 to 25 miles an hour. Two
can pass in the streets. There
are lights only in the repair sec
tion and parts storage. Work
men wear battery powered min
ers lanterns. . ,
j There .are three machines
working the potash veins where
no bracing or reinforcing is re
quired Each machine mines a
ton a minute.
It was because Mr. Mensch's
nephew worked in the mine,
that he was able to have this
3-hour detailed mine visit. No
women are allowed in the mine,
The Mensch's were gone 22
days. They were on the Atha
baska Glacier and rode the gon
dola lift at Banff. They drove
west and followed the Frazer to
Vancouver.

KEEPING OREGON GREEN WITH TREES FOREVER

Judith by Wilchek Is a book
full of intrigue. Long ago In
the land of Judah In the walled
town of Bethul, Judith was born
to the town's richest man and
wife. Left motherless at Infancy,
Judith was raised by her father
as he would have raised a son.
She grew up to be as brave and
skillful as a man and so beau
tiful that every man who saw
her desired her except the one
to whom she had been betrothed
as a child. The contract was In
violable and when her father
died she was held by lt to
Joyless unconsumated marriage,
Lonely and rich she became
richer. Her fields flourished, her
storehouses overflowed but at
30 she was a widow and virgin
while all the men who had
touched her life lay burled In
the ground.
At that time Judah refused to
pay the yearly tribute exacted
by Babylon and King Nebucha
drezzer set forth with an army
to quell the rebellion. Captain
Holofernes, leading a thousand
Babylonian soldiers, laid siege
to Bethul.
Bethul was doomed from the
start. But a wily and desperate
Judith went forth one night to
save her people by seducing the
captain Holofernes to his death.
This much Is well known. But
beyond the outlines of this fa
miliar legend lie passion and
betrayal and a vow no human
pleading could break. Stella
Wilchek has fleshed out the an
cient tale not only with the
facts of history but with the
blood knowledge of a people
that goes beyond the facts.
Thus Judith is not the Bib
lical story retold, but one cre
ated anew with characters that
are of the time and of all time.
It Is a story of life and war, of
passion and sacrifice, of the
glory and folly of heroism
and of the lure and pitfalls of
power. It is an ageold yet age
less story and one that has
powerful fascination.
Wade Bothwell recently re
turned from a 14-day sight-seeing
trip which took him thru
Canada and several states. He
went thru Glacier Park, Wil
liams Lake, and on up to Prince
George, which was the northern
most point of his trip. He trav
eled thru Jasper National Park,
Lake Louise, Banff, and Glacier
National Peace Park on the edge
of Canada and Montana. He re
turned by way of Yellowstone
Park, the Grand Tetons, and
Jackson Hole, Wyo.
