MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1943 PAGE THREE - In England, apparently, they don't have pears which can hold candle to those which are grown in the Rogue river val ley. Proof of this was contained in a V-mail letter .received by George A. Codding, Medford at torney, from his friend, Lt. Col. Joseph Carson, former mayor of Portland and past state com mander of the American Legion, now stationed in the British Isles with the U. S. army. . He wrote: "Last night at dinner I nib bled on a vegetable substance alleged to be a pear. I said, 'If Medford could only see this.' But between you and me we are lucky and should be grateful (I am) for what we do get. Further, we should be thankful when we get back to the bosom of our families and our own abundant firesides."
