Howlstt Charles Pettygrew who Is working with the civil engineer s crew on the llutte ..Falls water canal leading not only to the immediate vicinity of Eagle Point but reaching beyond so as to take in a large part of the Alivista orchard but beyond reaching to Ante lope valley, adding thousands of dol lars of wealth to that part of the dis trict. Well, what I started in to say was that Charley Pettygrew was here Wed nesday as the crew was changing their quarters and getting things shaped so as to have everything in shape for the fall and early winter run. W. S. Baker nnd his two boys were also guests at the Sunnyside the same day. He had been over in the big orchard district, and bought fifteen hundred pounds of apricots the day be fore and started to take them to Butte Falls but sold them out on the way and was making the second trip and was succeeding well in disposing of them. Mrs. Ed Ouches of Central Point, and Mrs. Walter Hawk of Medford, spent Thursday visiting Mrs. N. E. Watkins and her daughter. Miss Anna Watkinii There. were four strangers took din ner here Thursday and two others i spent the night with us, but I failed to learn their, names or residence. : The reader will bear, in mind that my health, hearing and sight! are not as good as formerly nnd consequently I nm not even. trying to gather all the news but gather, ail that I can select, what I think to be the best, and forget the rest. ;.- I met Walter Allen of Dorby, a son of one of the very early pioneers of that Bection, John Allen, at the postoffice Friday, and noticed that one of his eyes looked weak and asked what the trouble was and he reported that he had got a hayBeed in one of them and had been to Medford to hove it taken out and I naturally inquired who did the work and he replied Dr. Emmens had done the Job. Mrs. Geo. H. West who has taken up quarters at the Sunnyside missed her Dally Mall Tribune so sent in by mo last Saturday to renew her sub scription, and I suggested to her the idea of her getting some wrappers and sending the papers to her husband who is in the forest service near Baker City, Austin postoffice, and she replied that he was having it-come to him di rectly from the office. They both be lieve in keeping posted on what is go ing on in the world. K. E. Jackson called for dinner Fri day soliciting for Ward's medicines.

Last Friday afternoon while I was sitting out In the yard in the shade of the water tower reading with the aid of my large reading glass that was presented to ma by my occullst. Dr. Emmens, n car came up to the gate and an elderly, fine looking, old gentle man got out and as he came nearer I recognized our old friend of over fifty years ago, Thomas Collins of Medford, and he was soon followed by two stran gers whom 1 had known in their child hood days, V.

K.

In the meantime the hostess and her daughter came out and a general introduction was had and scenes of oiir younger days dis cussed. I see that I have omitted to mention that the ,two..Mr...Plymales were the:' sons of Hon, Tip Plymale who owned a fine fnrm nearby, direct ly across the road from the old Enoch Walkon place about two miles north of Medford. " We all had a Joyful visit and it might have been prolonged but they had a cow at home that had to be milked at a certain hour so had had to go home and milk that cow or the sun might stop moving on its axis.
