In and Around Table Rock
Table Rock S e y e r a 1 from
here attended the funeral of Mrs.
Ethel Duggan held recently in
Medford. Mrs. Duggan was well
known here having been a resi
dent of our near-by community
for many years, where she took
part in many -social ; activities,
including youth and Grange
work. She will be greatly "mis
sed by a host of friends in -this
and the . Sams Valley commu
nity. '"
Mrs. L. A. Brennesholtz
proved to be a most gracious
hostess to the score or more
members of Table Rock ladies'
Club who held their January
meeting last .Wednesday at her
home on Arnold . lane. During
the business session a $10 dona
tion was made to the March of
Dimes fund. . .
The first Telephone bill from
the ; Columbia Utilities - has ar
rived and shows , the monthly
service' charge on a ten party
line will be $3.55 plus a 36 cent
tax, making the total $3.91. ti
Mrs. John Dickey, teacher of
the Bible class in the local Sun
day school, has been absent the
past two Sundays, owing to her
attending services in her home
church in Medford. '
Many local farmers attended
the annual John Deere show
held recently at the Hubbard
Wray implement store in Med
ford, and enjoyed seeing the
new farm equipments and ' es
pecially the delicious ham sand
wiches, doughnuts and coffee.
, There is quite a little excite
ment in the Sams Valley district
at the present time over the pos
sibility of having oil wells drill
ed there in the near future. Ac
cording to John Vara, parties
are trying to get farmers to sign
leaser thaf when completed
would start the ball rolling. Mr,
Vara claims that the ; signing
would ' not inconvenience the
land owners if drilling was start
ed, or otherwise, but so far he
has not been able to convince
his neighbors, as no v one seems
to want to " be first , in putting
his name on the dotted line.
Byron Coulter, a logger of the
Meadows district, was a business
caller here " Monday. He says
things, have been pretty rough
in his line but are now improv
ing. v
subordinate Grange the masters'
team losing in the contest will
serve the overseer's team.
Sams Valley Grange'
Sams Valley Grange ; will
meet the evening of Tuesday,
Jan. 24. Among items to be dis
cussed will be the necessity of
taking action on oil leases.
An ; inter-squad - basketball
game will provide the program
at 8 p.m. . v .
Folks are beginning to get the
hang of the dial; system and
with a little more, practice : the
lines will be plenty busy, espe
cially since calls to Medford,
White City, Shady Cove, : and
Eagle Point are free. To work
the new gadget, you stick your
finger in a little hole, with win
ning numbers at the 'side like a
slot machine, spin the dingus
around, take your finger out and
it will go back where it started
from, try another; hole and 'do
this six times, seven il you; are
calling yourself or some one on
your own party line, then listen
and if you hear a. buzz,- buzz;
you will know the line, is .busy,
and there is nothing you an
do but wait awhile and do some
more spinning.; The. old ;way,
after one turn of the crank, you
held the receiver to your, ear
to 'hear, a gentle, interested fem
inine voice tell you she was the.
operator, and if no answer after
several.; rings . in trying to get
your party, - she might tell you
the party you wanted had gone
to the neighbors to help pick
turkeys or something. All quite
simple and with a humane touch,
something- we are going to miss
after using the crank turning
system for some 45 years.
Starting the New Year right
by cleaning up and disposing of
things that have out-lived, their
usefulness, we destroyed . some
Cordon pamphlets left over af
ter the little woman had ' dis
tributed to voters, last fall, and
took down Dick Neubergers . pic
ture from our big pine tree. He
was r gaining when we tacked
him up, and was still ' gaining
when we took him down. Sure
has a sense of humor. Two, lines
of thought and action are made
possible in" a democracy where
one can worship God and vote
according to the dictates of his
own conscience. We would ask
some who seem to be a little cool
toward those who do not. vote
as they do, if they would rather
live in a country where one is
given a ballot already, marked.
This reminds - us of a recent
editorial by Bob Ruhl referring
to' a correspondent of the ' Ore
gonian who had stated that the
most; asinine statement of ' the
year was made by Sen. ', Neu
berger , when ' he said he found
more people in the day coaches
that voted for him than in the
Pullman cars. We ' avrote of a
similar incident after making a
trip in a Greyhound bus : just
after the November election,
when we were surprised to find
so many Neuberger supporters on
the bus, and knowing how close
the vote was naturally supposed
that more of his votes came from
bus riders than from the other
modes of transportation. .
To be honest , about it we
wouldn't have been surprised at
finding some of the passengers
were leaving the state because
of his election. We looked up
the word asinine and according
to Webster it means pertaining
to, or like an ass. We may have
something in common with an
ass, we used to drive mules, but
we still claim, that that ' had
nothing to do with what we
wrote; it was news to us, so we
thought it might be to others.

Ever stop to think
how many things that are "
good for you aren't '
particularly good-lasting,
. , and vice-versa?
Nature provides the most .
outstanding exception to this rule,
and that exception is milk.
The high nutritional value of milk is an
undisputed fact. And there's increasing evidence
that folks drink milk, not for its health-giving
, properties alone, but because it tastes good. "
Milk is cool and refreshing, smooth and soothing.
And milk feels good to the mouth and throat
Tbafs why, for a toast to your taste -as
