- 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."
