a home recently purchased on
the Old Stage road west of Cen
tral Point
The high wind of last Friday
did some damage here to roofs
and doors and some small build
ings and picked up light pumice
soil which sifted into dwellings,
leaving an irksome cleanup job
for housewives. Nearly Tialf of
the big maple tree on the Nealon
ranch, the one the Nealon chil
dren grew up under, was torn
off during the storm.
Lester . James, Sams Valley
dairyman, has plans made for

mence in the near future.
A spark from the fhi ignited
the roof of the Frank Myers
home about 2 p.m. Friday dur
ing the wind storm. Mrs. Myers,
ill in the house at the time, was
informed of the fire by a county
truck driver whose name we
failed to get who had seen the
fire as he drove along the road.
By some fast work with a garden
hose he succeeded in putting it
out before much damage was
done.
The Central Point rural fire
truck responded promptly to a
call for help but on arrival found
the fire danger over.
John Morris, local farmer and
school bus driver, was taken to

hip deep in what looks like a
lake of water looking for rattle
snakes, which does look strange.

Community hospital Wednesday
to undergo surgery.
The loud noise caused by some
form of explosion heard here
Wednesday night jarred houses

who has a mine on Upper Table
Rock we learned he is not work
ing his mine at this time and ac
cording to him would not be
using shots of that size at any

have been a blast of some kind

We inspected the hole in. the

been heard only a short distance.
