It was Sarah Bernhardt who said: "If a wom an be loved, hated and envied, her life is worth the living." Queries from Clients Q. I say the film "Ecstasy," in which Hedy Lamarr starred, was produced twenty-five years ago. Right? A. Not quite right, sir. Was about twenty-one years ago. Incidentally, it was pro duced in Czechoslovakia. Q. My charming, though somewhat stubborn, blonde green-gray-eyed matrimonial mate, claims a life long bachelor,' who started with nothing and became a mil lionaire, is one of the rarest things on earth. She defied me to name one. She had. me there. Help, please. A. "Diamond Jim" Brady was a bachelor. George Ade, one of the wealthiest of authors, never married. George Jean Nathan, while possibly not quite a millionaire, is one of the country's most successful men and a bachelor. I believe Col. Jake Ruppert, millionaire brew er and one of the owners of the Yankee baseball club was a bachelor. . Over There In the 25 to 40 age group In Germany there are 300 unmar ried women to one unmarried man. The situation has become so desperate some women have launched , a share-the-husbands campaign. In Berlin there are 600,000 more women than men. Many of the women are beau tiful. Telephone numbers of eli gible bachelors are sold for high prices. The preferred bachelors are United States service men. They average fifteen proposals of marriage a week. Says He . "No female weighing over 120 pounds should wear slacks in public," writes a New Yorker. "How right was that poet who wrote: Dames With Fat Backs Shouldn't Wear Slacks. "Other articles of attire not adapted to, plump women are shorts or playsuits. These also have been the subject of some poetic lines, namely: Only Shapely Beauts Should Wear Playsuits.

In and Around Table Rock First Train Uses Reheated Tracks Portland (U.R) The first train to use the relocated South ern Pacific railroad tracks at Lookout Point dam on the mid dle Ifork of the Willamette river passed over the new section Fri- The 90-car freight and the pri vate car of S. P. Superintendent L. B. Hopkins passed south bound over the new stretch "of tracks, which are on the left or east bank of the river and overlook the dam and reservoir. The old tracks were on the op posite side of the river and did not command a view of the dam. The Corps of Engineers said trains would use the new tracks for a 10-day testing period be fore the section is turned over to Southern Pacific Aug. 25. Table Rock H. , D. . Reed of the Meadows district was a busi ness visitor here one day last week. He informed us that he has traded his farm for land in the Rogue River section. Local orchardists are having pear trees where branches are heavily laden with fruit; support ed with props as the. pears grow larger. A good crop seems in prospect and picking of Bartletts will commence Monday at the Hull orchard where already ex tra cabins are filled and some half dozen trailer houses are on hand with prospective pickers. A statement of bonded indebt edness of county school districts from County Treasurer Ralph Sweeney shows Central Point, which we are now a part of, with $669,136.44, second highest in the county and only exceeded by Medford. Nearly all oi this money was levied for building purposes. In contrast we find that in 1892 the Table Rock dis trict voted a levy of 10 mills which raised $313.41 which was used to build a new school house, the contractor doing-the job for an even $300. During logging operations last week in the Lost Creek section, "Red" Wilson reports that a rat tle snake was killed that meas ured exactly six feet long after the rattles were taken off. An other large rattle snake lying under a log was caught in the loop when the choker setter put the line under and . was parted in the middle when . the pull come on the cable.

Sunday. August 17.' 1952 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVES The Robert Sage family re turned Friday from Eugene where Sage attended a session of summer school at University of Oregon. The Ray Doran family spent last Sunday boat riding and swimming at Diamond lake. Pear picking will commence August 18 at the Modoc orchard where an average or better crop of good quality fruit is to be harvested. Porcupines are more numer ous in these parts than usual this year. One getting in the way of a car on the road a few nights ago was run over causing a punctured tire. Miss Frankie Adams, former ly of Table Rock, accompanied by her two cousins from Penn sylvania, stopped on a brief vis it at the J. S. Richardson home Friday. Miss Adams, who at tended the Table Rock school as a child, is now a teacher in the California schools. Virgin olive oil is the oil that comes from, the first pressing of olives.

American rice farmers grow rice with the expenditure of about two man-days of labor per acre yearly, as compared with 300 to 400 man-days of labor per acre in the rest of the world. Children in school in South China pay their tuition in rice. The tuition ranges from 5 pounds of rice a semester for the first graders to 12 pounds for the 6th graders.
