(Editor's " note: The follow- ,
ing article is one of several
written by well-known Med
ford woman who left here in
April to spend several months
abroad. She is in Vienna,
where she expects to make an
extended stay.)
By MRS. I. E. SCHULER
Vienna, Austria The $64
question is this I certainly
can't answer . who buys the
things in the shops, who eats in
the restaurants? Everything is as
high as in America, with the ex
ception of things made by hand
like beautiful rings. I seldom
see many people in stores. I have
asked so many people and no
body seems to know.
Ernest Hauser in his article in
the Saturday Evening Post
speaks of some of these things.
Although I would not have the
temerity to question a Post writ
er, I do not see some of the situ
ations as he saw them. He was
here but for a short time, and it
is my understanding that he did
not go out among the people to
find out for nimseit. ,
For instance the opera. He
spoke of the voices as being sec
ond rate, the costumes moth
eaten, and the settings old. Sev
eral of their big name artists
have gone to America, but there
are thousands of magnificent
voices left, and in that I am not
expressing my own opinion.
Europeans generally consider
Viennese opera the best. I have
been to five operas since I came,
and this I know Mr. Hauser
was wrong as to scenery and
costumes. Four years ago what
he said was true costumes were
pathetically bad. But Salome,
which we saw four years ago,
and I have seen again this time,
is an allustration. Now every
thing is new, and very beautiful.
I aw Aida have seen Aida this
time, and the settings were as
tounding in grandeur and mag
nificence. Likes Effects
I wish that Bill Patton could
see the lighting effects. One in
particular was unlike anything
I had ever seen. You could not
tell where the stage ended and

Thunder. July 17, 1852
Local Woman in Austria
the back drop began. It was
water and rocks, and you had
the uncanny feeling of looking
way off to the horizon. Another
effect was moonlight on water,
and the water rippled, and clouds
were reflected from the sky onto
the water. I am no judge of
opera, but it was certainly good
so far as I could tell.
And this is another inconsis
tency the opera house was
packed from the front down
stairs, to the fourth galleries
where, above the seats, young
people stood. My friends who
go to San Francisco and pay
what is it? $8 a seat will be in
terested. I pay, in our money,
80 cents in the back down
stairs, and 60c In the first gal
lery. I saw at this price "The
Magic Flute," "The Vogel
handler," "The Masked Ball,"
and the two I mentioned.
Another inconsistency so far
as Americans are concerned
to go into one of the opera houses
you must pass a movie theater.
Just no one seems to go in there.
Everyone is going to the opera,
which by the way starts at 7
o'clock. I live only a 10 minute
walk from one of the opera
houses.
Mr. Hauser the '"Post" writer,
spoke of Vienna as a city of in
trigue. I asked my friend Mr.
Ekern about that, and he said
that undoubtedly there was
much of it here, but that there
is in almost any large European
city, or America for that matter,
if you are looking for it. I am
not. Mr. Ekern also said that
since The Third Man was film
ed, that people liked to hear that
sort of thing. A ' lot more ir
relevant material I pass the
door where the Third Man was
killed, every time I go to a cer
tain building. I have not been
to the sewers yet, however, but
I am planning to go.
More inconsistencies. I have a
beautiful apartment grand
piano, oriental rugs, oil paint
ings, antique Meisen dishes and
figurines, complete maid service,
even to breakfast in bed if I wish
(which I don't) and my shoes pol
ished, for which I pay in our
money $28 a month, and under
stand that I am grossly over
paying; that I am practically
supporting the family. But along
with all this charming living I
have access to an old tin bath
tub for which I pay four schil
lings a bath, and share with the
family. Oh, yes I sleep on a
foot high feather bed, and have
handsome bed linen, and down
quilts. I have four keys to ma
niplate one to get into the big
wrought iron gate which opens
into a garden courtyard, one to
open the building, one for the lit
tle glass elevator, and one for
the outer door to the apartment.
The first day or two I would
leave one or two of the "Schlus
sels" in one or two of the doors
and would have to trot down
three flights of winding stairs
after them. For some reason the
little lift goes up, but not down.
You punch the button, and it
goes down all right but not you
in it. If you will excuse the ex
pression everything is so cock
eyed. I have decided though, that
we Americans are pretty snob
bish about plumbing, baths and
things. Tin tubs aren't so bad
when you get used to them. You
can't let the water get too hot is
all.
Sunday an Englishwoman took
me to the Church of England for
the morning service. It is for the
English people who live in Vi
enna. I felt as though I were
having one of those experiences
you read about of slipping for
a short period into another time
and existence or that Somerset
Maugham had dressed them up
for one of his movies. It was in
teresting. The service is almost
like the Episcopal service. After
the rector had said a prayer for
Queen Elizabeth and her family,
to my surprise he said our prayer
for the President of the United
States. And more to my aston
ishment he prayed that the
American people be guided
aright in their selection of a new
president. Which brings me to
something else about our politics.
Many Austrians were invited to
a large dinner party given by one
of the men and his wife of the
embassy. And I met a Baron
Seiler, who said as first remark,
"Do you think General Eisen
hower can possibly win the Re
publican primaries?" Then he
went on to tell me that he didn't
think it would make much dif
ference anyway, saying, "I think

Mr. Truman is being smart. He
dropped out, and will be draft
ed at the end, and he will win,
no matter who runs." Then out
of the great heap of my politi
cal knowledge I came forth with
this sage remark, "Oh, I don't
think he wants it again, and De
sides (I blush to think of telling
this on myself) I don't think his
wife wants him to run." But he
just laughed, and said quite ala
Walter Winchell "I predict he
will." Then he said, and of course
I was an authority on that too,
"Just what is Bourbon?"
His wife invited me to tea,
and yesterday I went. In order
to give him more idea about our
political picture, I took the June
Atlantic which had both Taft's
and Eisenhower's foreign policy
in it, and a Saturday Evening
Post The Baron is 72 years old,
and as he had been in diplomatic
service under Franz Joseph, and
had fought in two wars, he had
extremely interesting stories to
tell. One thing I must write and
then I will close I had always
understood that the Germans had
bombed St. Stephans cathedral,
and had blamed it on the Ameri
cans. Baron Seiler said it is not
true. He saw what happened. He
had slipped out to watch the
street fighting between the Rus
sians and the Germans, and as
he was hiding in a doorway near
St. Stephans he suddenly saw
rolls of smoke coming out of the
top. The Germans had done it
with artillery. It burned for a
long time. I did not realize either
that fighting went on right down
the Graben one of the fine
business streets and that for
days dead people and horses lay
on the streets, until the Aus
trians could crawl out to clear
them away. The house next to
the Sellers was bombed that
night also. The Austrians must
have suffered badly, and as they
are a peaceful people it must
have been hard to reconcile. I
have, however, heard that they
condoned what Hitler did about
the Jews because they too hate
them. How surprised he would
be to know that what he told me
I am putting in a paper. Oh, yes,
as I was leaving I happened to
think of Von Schuschnigg, and
asked them if they knew him,
"Oh ye, but of course" and I
could go on to tell more about

Pickin' Pears
By. SID HOLLINGSWORTK
Pickin' blackberries is a spec
ial activity engaged in by one
member at Camp White who
has built up quite a business for !
himself during the summer sup
plying not only Camp White
but acquaintances in Medford
and vicinity with the wild fruit
he gathers by a system all his
own and found in places which
he calls "top secret."
He is Harry M. Knox, mes
senger at other times in the
Domiciliary office. During the
season the job keeps him ex
tremely busy and he gathers
in the neighborhood of 500 buck
ets of the choice morsels. But
let him tell about it in his own
words:
"My first introduction to pick
ing wild blackberries came about
in a casual way the first sum
mer here, when after complet
ing the setting up of 500 new
lockers, it was suggested that
I go out and pick some black
berries for the cooks to bake
a pie. Not only was this done
but orders came for more ber
ries. "Today the business has mush
roomed into a scientific one man
expedition supported by person
nel, friends and some citizens
of Medford and the surrounding
territory. In order to keep pro
duction rolling on schedule, gad
gets were devised, one of them
being the common barnyard var
iety of milking stool for strip
ping the ground bushes, and
avoiding fatigue.
"Then there is a hooking gad
get for high bushes and one for
reaching over streams for ber
ries on the other side. The
equipment also includes a heavy
duty bicycle, first aid and prop
er clothing. With all of this I
enter the deep tangled wildwood
in the Antelope district for the
summer's foray, lasting until
the late rains and frost. For
every berry picked there are
about 17 sharp briars with the
underleaf and vine to contend
with.
"One sunny afternoon when
cruising around, I spied a fancy
cluster but the bees were busy
humming over the sweetness
and wouldn't be brushed off.
After two stings the air grew
hat with bees and a hasty exit
had to be made.
"For more berries to take
care of the bookings, operations
were moved to the Eagle Point
area on the Little Butte and
one evening, emerging from the
patch, a porcupine came lumb
ering slowly my way. No room
to pass, porky promptly turned
half way, bristled up and wait
ed for the meeting. I took the
day, holding the bucket over
porkly while stepping over with
a high stride.
"The swamp approach leads

From Camp White
to tall reed grasses shoulder
high with bush berries reach
ing the height of trees and fancy
large clusters hanging- down
like ' ornaments. A festive de
light, and before I could get
set for the pickings a rattler
was spied in the tall reeds coil
ed and ready for business.
"I took my gadget for the
rattler, tossed it over, enliven
ing the action with a few swift
yanks on a cord. The spell was
a magic surprise and a com
plete rout of the foe speeding
away inland.
"The daily pickings in the
woods give good body exercise
with plenty of fresh air and sun
shine and in like manner a rea
ching and stretching motion
pulling in blackberries, now on
high, then down to the ground
again, doing the daily dozen,
and toning up the muscles all
day long.
"Here in the beautiful Rogue
river valley with running
streams near Camp White,
blackberries are found to grow
profusely and large in several
bush varieties the high bush,
ground and creeping ones, the
Oregon evergreen, Dew and
Himalayas predominating."
Harry has done some prelim
inary work in his special pre
serves and finds to his dismay
that some of his best picking
grounds have been cleared and !
cultivated, making it necessary
to reconnoiter in the hope of
finding new berry areas.
It is likely that his crop mav
be cut in half unless the new
bushes are located. His average
daily effort yields him 10 to
12 good sized buckets full of
fresh, prime blackberries.
