Mrs. Kosterlos from Boston, Mass., is visiting at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Robert Sage. She is accompanied by her daughter, Miss Penny, who visit ed several years ago. Thirty sprinkler heads run by a big pump set in the irrigation ditch are kept spinning almost every day, keeping more than 75,000 young trees alive and growing on the Orville Hamilton farm, where Gordon Kershaw is growing nursery stock.

The hot . days since the first of August, which old-timers call "dog days," seem to be bringing out many rattlesnakes. One re cently was killed a few feet from the John Dickey house, which when discovered, was making a bee line for the door, causing John to gather up his dog and run with him, as he would rath er get bit himself than have it happen to his dog, according to his wife. Several others in this vicinity have encountered rattle snakes lately, some of them be ing the big timber species. The Rodgers-Houston annual picnic held last Sunday at Tou Velle park was attended by 41 relatives and friends, some com ing from Klamath county and some from California.

It was with deep regret that we learned of the passing of Gus Newbury, well-known law yer and resident of Medford and Jackson county. We first rem ember meeting him back in the 90's when he came to visit our one- room school as county sup erintendent. Tall and straight, and with an air of strict dignity, we wondered if we could ever be so tall, dignified, and hold such a responsible and paying position. Out on the playground, he put aside some of the dignity, and took part in the simple, but wholesome games played by the school children back in those days. Another time his height impressed me as we had gone to San Francisco to witness the coming into the Golden Gate harbor of the U.S. battleships which had been sent there to bolster the morale of the people in the quake-damaged city. This day they were having a big par ade, with some 8,000 sailors and several bands from the fleet, marching up Market street. The sidewalks were jammed with people, any direction you looked there were thousands of people, yet we couldn't see a one we knew. We were beginning to be a bit lonesome, when of a sudden we glimpsed a tall figure, head and shoulders above the rest, working his way toward us through the crowd, and sure enough it was Gus. None other in all those thousands could be taken for him. He had a high sense of humor, and we remember a story he told about some sort of lawyers' meeting when a prominent man as a speaker defined the legal professions for the good of all mankind. Gus said he told the speaker a better definition would be "a parasite on the human race," one who makes his liv ing off the mistakes and misfor tunes of his fellowmen . Gus of course, didn't mean this. He was really proud of his profes sion. H. W: Davisson left Friday by plane for a visit with his son-in-law, C. W. Meyers, in Port land.
