' 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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.
