    FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Thur.day. Jan. 17. I94
Forest Park Suggested For
Memorial To Heroes Of V ar
John Gribble, 139 Kenwood
street, retired Forest Service
Bupervisor, and now representa
tive here, has suggested a living
memorial to the men and women
of Jackson county who served
in World War II. Gribble sug
gests an acreage of forest trees
in conjunction with the new
city park. It was suggested the
nark strip along liear Creek
south of the new park might be
exlended to the highway, mak
ing a beautiful memorial forest-
park.
Gribble recalled the history
of another memorial tree in
Mcdford the little evergreen
near Main street in the City
park which is lighted each year
as a community Christmus tree.
For several years, Gribble re
calls, a Douglas fir tree was cut
and brought to the park, set up
and decorated with electric
lights. One of the last ones, 45
feet tall, was hauled from the
top of a hill west of Jackson
ville. The Christmas Tree commit
tee was told, according to
Gribble, that a tree could be
grown from seed which some
day mif,'ht serve as a community
Christmas tree. On Arbor day
in 1927 Mcdford Boy Scouts set
out a two-year-old seedling, six
or eight inches in height, with
each boy putting a bit of soil
about the tiny tree. The tret-
was from a seed from a Mariposa
grove near Yosemite Park in
California and was planted by
uribble at his home about 1925
The tree, now about 50 feet tall
is the one decorated as a com
munity tree last December.
At the same time that the little
Mariposa was planted, Gribble
said the Scouts also planted on
other of the same seedlings west
of the Library building but it
was pulled up by vandals the
following spring. Photographs
of the planting were taken and
signed by all the Scouts and Is
on record at the historical
society.
