The time was set lor 8:30, Sunday, May 9. at the Chamber of Commerce for the Southern Oregon Gem and Mineral society's second field trip, and. the destination lay through Grit fin creek road to Sterling Mine, and all points north to Jacksonville. Our cars were loaded with lunch, ham mers and several gold pans, beside enough occupants for a pull man. A fossil bearing sandstone out crop about seven miles out on Griffin creek Invited us eo we stop ped for about twenty minutes to dig out enough clams for chowder. Several fine trigjnla specimens were taken from the rocks. We resumed our )ourney and when we arrived at Sterling mine, a pic turesque sight met our gaze. A huge delael bulldozer was clearing ground for the delsel shovel, which was scooping dirt and rock Into five- yard trucks. (This work goes on 34 hours each day, and three thousand cubic yards a day are put through the mill and sluice boxes). It Is then taken to the washer, pulver ized, screened and run over the rif fles, leaving all gold In the boxes. Since the shovel cannot thoroughly scrape the bedrock a crew of men goes over this and shovels the dire left Into a smaller sluice. Supt. Mc Cormtck and Manager Pierce explain ed the work, the machines, the local geology and showed us specimens bearing gold. Below the mill was a most spec tacular sight. Two hydraulics were cutting the gravel off at bedrock, One washed, the rock over the riffles where all the gold collects and the fj 0 M Y MEAT and FISH MARKET ROY GUYER, Owner 210 E.

It waa truly an awesome sight to tee all this In ope ration. Many animal fossils are un covered here. Mastodon tusks and skeletons nave been unearthed. One tusk nine feet long was Just recently found. After spending a great deal or time at the mine we discovered a shaded grassy spot Ideal for picnick ing. We gathered wood for a fire and the ladles made the coffee which lent the air an appetising odor. Lunch waa spread by the small creek, and Mr. Pierce Joined with us and entertained us during lunch with stories of Alaska gold strikes. With lunch over we visited the Federal mine, three and a half miles away, whose two hydraulics were working much the same as at ster ling. All the way we could aee signs of Chinese diggings. Tney are qu'" nri llrtlv built. They brought water 38 mlfes for placer mining. Quite often Interesting relics are found In their kltcnen dumps. After passing through Huch we arrived at the elte of the former cltv of Log Town, a good-elwd set- ; tlement of the seventies. Near here Is the location bf tho gold dredge owned by Mr. Jack Horner. The I dredge was working there and we i found quite a crowd of people be sides our own watching lt operation. 1 We then went to the old Sturgess j Mine which has been In operation until recently. Harry Morrow panned out a few traces of gold dust lor the Society members to aee. Just before coming Into Jackson- I vllle we stopped at a marble quarry j containing excellent rock. Also here j were the large lime kilns used to I roost the rock Into lime mortar, of I which the city of Jacksonville was 1 built. j Everyone agreed that the trip was highly successful. Much Interest has been aroused by these field trips which can be shown by the doubling of membership In two weeks.

BEER DISPENSERS TO MAKE F PLEA FOR SERVICE Meeting behind closed doors, 32 members of the southern Oregon branch of the Oregon Food and Bev erage Dispensers. Inc.. decided last night to make a formal request to beer and wine distributors In this territory to maintain former delivery service schedules starting next Mon day, H. S. Boise, secretary, said today. The gathering, presided over by P. E. Blgelow, presldMit, was held In the Hotel Holland and lasted nearly three hours. Members from all parts of southern Oregon attended. The meeting was called In protest of a recent ultimatum by distrib utors that no beer or wine of any kind would be delivered between the hours of 0 p.m. and 9 a.m. The dls pensers decided. Secretary Boise stat ed, that the proposed delivery sche dule would work great hardships on the dispensers In that It would force them to provide refrigeration and sanitary facilities. He said that If the decision of the distributors to curtail delivery service between those hours, dispensers would be without service from 6 p.m. Saturday until 0 a.m. Monday, as there Is no delivery on Sunday because of an agreement of the state distributors with the sanction of the state liquor comis- slon. He pointed out that If that were the case, dispensers would be forced to Install expensive facilities for the extra kegs of beer that would have to be stored over Saturday night and Sunday, and that many of the dis pensers couldn't afford to do so. , Officials of tho southern Oregon branch of the Oregon Food and Bev erage Dispensers, Inc.. refused to state today whether any decision was reached last night as to the next step In the "beer battle" should the distributors refuse to maintain their former delivery service. The formal request would be writ ten and mailed to the distributors to da& Secretary Boise said. Harry Fredette was re-elected a state trustee of the Oregon Food and Be vera bo Dlspcnsors, Inc., and will attend the state convention of the organization In Astoria next month, Boise said.
