Newspaper Page TextIn and Around Table Rock ' W. W. Timm, the busy care taker of TouVelle State park, reports that the attendance at the park this season is running right at 5,000 persons a week. - The count is made by gadgets that count the cars and the at tendance is figured on a basis of four passengers to the car. According to Mr. Timm more parking space will soon be made available on the south side by moving the gate several hundred feet east which will allow cars to get nearer to picnic facilities. Ted Morava, the Central Point sheep shearer, has been busy here for the past two weeks with shearing spring lambs. Breeders that usually buy feeder lambs here at this season seem to be rather uncertain about contracting on what price to pay, claiming that the prices are so jumpy and unstable, with grade so stiff and hard to define that any offer they might make could mean the sticking out of their necks. Bruce Inglic of Birmingham, Ala., a visitor here for the past month at the home of his broth er Dean and family, left last Tuesday by bus for his home. Mr. and Mrs. David Do ran and daughter Tamara of Med ford were Sunday visitors here with home folks at the Ray Dor an home. Danny Miller of Camp White was over this way Sunday eve ning "buzzin" with the Port land cousins Diane, Dennie and Debra Richardson. A crain buver from Medford was here the first of the week looking for small grains and of fered some increase over prices being offered by others but still under price supports. Georra Loftin. Sams Valley farmer, a recent visitor here, says he is going to put his re- rentlv harvested wheat under Government loan which will net him $71.00 a ton. O. J. Wilson and grandson Harvey Tonn of Central Point are combining grain here and 1 Uie Beagie and sams vauey districts. They claim a local field of wheat on the J. L. Nealon farm yielded more than sixty bushels per acre. Speaking of wheat, we have just received our wheat allot- V Ob nmrnm .

Don Richardson of the Green, Richardson and Green law firm of Portland, arrived here last week with his family and are spending their summer vacation with Donald s parents at the J S. Richardson home. Don and wife expect to do their usual trout fishing in the mountain streams in the upper branches of the Rosue river and the Dia mond lake region. They also look forward to attending the Shakespearean festival at Ash land while here. Farm scales were inspected here Tuesday by workmen from the State Sealer of Weights and Measures. Among recent visitors here were Mr. and Mrs. George How ard of Medford, Mrs. Bertha Bursell of Beale Lane, Mr. and Mrs. Jake Gillispie of Eugene, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Levitt of Central Point and Dr. and Mrs. Hambly and son Roger of San Francisco. ( Recent installations of TV sets in the community were made at the Ray Johnston and' Fred Smith homes. The hot sultry weather, which is putting the sugar in the pears is also taking the sap out of crews working in the orchards and on the farms. Our old black bantam has a new flock of baby chicks, this time she was given the white kind, all previous ones being colored, but she gladly took over the white babies, there ap parently being no discrimination here as to creed or color. Kenneth Wyatt, received his Masters Degree of Education last week in Eugene. Kenneth was also elected state president of special education association at a convention at Timberline lodge in July. This ypung man, despite his handicap is really going places. Major and Mrs. J. H. Hollstein of Portland stopped last Mon day for a visit with relatives at the Ray Wyatt home. The Major is on his way to Korea for a two year stay. Mrs. Hollstein will be accom panied back to Portland by Wayne Wyatt Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. George Martin and children of Gold Hill at tended the local Sunday school last Sunday. Mr. Martin, mis sionary for the American Sun day School Union, gave some striking examples of how the drink habit can grow when once started. Joe Stallings sang a special number accompanied by his mother. According to reports good white face steers that would grade good or better have been selling, at a valley auction for 17 cents a pound on the hoof. The Country Gentleman re cently gave figures showing how many steers it took back in 1939 to buy a $2,300 tractor and the number now which it gave as seven. We wonder what kind of a seven-steer tractor the man who raised these steers will buy. Without farm magazines taking - , VtX Vv.v'. v-.

As Live HOW KEEP DATES FROM BEING PETTING-PARTIES? When a boy takes a girl out on a date, he wants to have a good time. This often includes some nettina or necking. As boys grow into men, does petting be come the mam reason lor asKing a girl for a date? That is what 4-H Club News Jacksonville Forestry Club We have been very busy get ting our exhibits ready for the county 4-H fair. Eleven of our 12 members planned to exhibit. We had to have our entries at the fairgrounds Sunday so they can be judged before the fair opens Wednesday. The forestry exhibits are in the Home Econ omics building.

PH. the girl who wrote the following letter wants to know: (Q) "I am 22 years old and heve quite a few dates with fellows. 23 and older. I have always been introduced to them and have never been picked up. Yet the first time we go on a date alone together, they want to kiss and once you allow that they want to go further. Recently I met a nice fellow and liked kirn so I al lowed him to kiss me on our first dale. He met my parents and was at our house twice. On our third date, he tried to go further and I wouldn't let him. I never saw him or heard from him again. It seems there is only one thing fellows go out for these days which makes me pretty disgusted. I don't know just what to say when' they keep insisting and ask why when refused. Please help me." (A) If you merely say that you do not feel like petting, you are likely to make boys think you are cold o r have no inter est in them. If you tell them you don't care enough about them to want to pet, you can count on never seeing them again. However, you certainly Dr. Hurtock do not want to make your dates petting parties or allow young men to go as far as they please with you. Nor do you want to create the impression that you are an "easy mark" by always allowing them to kiss you on your first date. You can do a lot to avoid com plications by keeping your dates in situations where petting would be out of the question. Don't go for rides in cars and never be persuaded to go to a man's apartment. Don't sit around your own home with nothing to do but pet. Then if the man asks for a kiss, be sweet and agreeable, saying, "sometime, maybe." This will keep him interested if he likes you and will not offend him as a point-blank answer would. You must use some tact. (COPYRIGHT 1953.
