In and Around Table Rock Table Rock Kenny Wyatt ar-j rived here Wednesday accom panied by Miss Helen Wood of Eugene and the two spent the Thanksgiving holidays with Kenny's home folks at the Ray Wyatt home. This is Kenny's fourth year as instructor for the handicapped in two high and four grade schools in Eugene. Miss Wood is vocational thera pist in - a hospital in Eugene where polio patients are taken for special treatment. An epidemic of what is com monly called grippe, flu, or com mon colds, and CRI by Dr. Bra dy, has cut heavily into the Sun day school attendance here lately. .Mrs. Byron Coulter of the Ramsey Canyon district was a brief caller here Tuesday. R. V. Beale of the lane of the same name, which incidently he he says is pronounced "Bell," was a recent business visitor here. Mr. Beale, a farmer for most of his life, has decided to quit. He says a man of his age has no chance owing to not being able to do the work himself or find competent farm help, cou pled with taxes what they are, ; Mr. and Mrs. Walter Timm re turned Tuesday from a two weeks vacation spent in differ- parts of Oregon and Washing ton. They visited friends in both states and attended the conven tion of the Oregon State Em ployers Assn. at Bend, and the Filter center at Portland where Mrs. Timm, an airplane observer at TouVelle park, got to see how her air flashes were handled. : Monday's edition of the Ore gon Journal gives an account of the trial at Richmond, Va., of - Mrs. Kathlene Nagler charg ed with being implicated in the Herman Harris jewel theft. Mrs. Nagler and her husband resided in this community some three years ago-living in the house now occupied by the Dick Reura family. If the old Indian sign can be depended on we are in for a hard winter, as the ears of corn this year were tightly wrapped with heavy husks. On the other hand the woodpeckers and squirrels are supposed to store an extra supply of acorns when a hard winter is anticipated but the late frost this spring killed most of the acorns. However, we notice that the woodpeckers in our big pine have a fair supply of acorns left over from last year. Bill Glass, the Arkansas trap per, was over this way Monday looking over his trap line and reported seven muskrats the first day. According to Bill one would have to skin rats pretty fast to make anything at the price pelts are bringing now. The Boiler Tree" Service, man aged by Lee McKnight of Med ford last week topped the tall poplar trees in the Boswortb yard. . . Mr. and Mrs. E- P. Leavitt of the Old Stage road, Mrs. Clara Gardener and brother Chris Richardson home. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Morgan are ' spending some time in Texas to be with Mrs. Morgan's mother who is reported to be very ill The white tiuck that roamed along the ditches and in .the feed yards on the J. L. NeaJon farm disappeared about, the close of the pheasant season. Among recent business visit ors here were Gus Koellner of Sams Valley, manager of Big Pines Lumber Co.: Ernest Pheis- ter, Medford, builder 'of fire places; C. C. Dickerson, farmer and hay dealer of Grants Pass, and T. Van De Koolwyk, rep resenting the Sterling Insurance Co. of Chicago. . Carl May of Medford, a resi dent here some 50 years ago, was a brief visitor last Tuesday. He was foreman of the Table Rock Orchard for several years and set out many of the pear trees now in the orchard, later working for Copco until retiring a few years ago. He remarked while watching the Copco crew climb ing the 50-foot poles replacing cross arms, that he could in his mind still top the poles with the best of them, but when he tried his legs just wouldn t keep up. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Robinson and son Elgin returned Sunday from a week-end visit with the Rob inson's son, Douglas, and family at Fairfield, Calif. A crew of workmen from the True Mix Co. of Medford last week removed the two poles at the local landing aid station and replaced them with 60-foot poles placed much farther apart. The higher poles, with more distance between, will, it is said, make the station more efficient. Mrs. J. S. Richardson did sev eral days substitute teaching n the Central Point schools last week. - In our neighbor's pasture .the other day a snow white cow gave birth to a coal black calf. Some of pur southern friends claim that things like this might hap pen to the human race if we get too soft on anti-segregation. The report that the yellow guide line down our highways will soon be changed to- white is causing quite a little discus sion here. - A. C. Allen, who has been working for the change, claims a white line1 would be much better, especially in foggy weather. He recalls that one foggy night he was three hours getting home from attending , a basketball, game in Medford. O. T. Wilson takes a different view. He claims that white ve hicles are harder to see than yellow ones and a white line soon gets dingy. Thanksgiving day passed very quietly here with many families enjoying their cranberries and turkey with kinf oiks. We had for dinner and are still having him, Istanbul, the strutting gob bler, the only male in the bantam hen's brood, -which weighed 18 pounds, all being put on since July 1 when we slipped him and his mates under the bantam hen who was expecting baby chicks. The annual Thanksgiving day community dinner at the school house was attended by some 70 people despite' television sets and other competing activities. Some of our neighbors from the east end we seldom get to see only on occasions like this, including the A. C. Aliens, who were present and added to the enjoyment of the festivities. The Table Rock Ladies club will hold their next meeting Wednesday, December 8, at' the home of Mrs. Lloyd Hamlin on Arnold Lane with a pot luck dinner at noon.
