t TABLE ROCK Community Club Meets By R. E. NEALON Table Rock A fairly large attendance, including several viritors from other districts, was present at the last meeting of the Table Rock Community club, and enjoyed a program of mov ing pictures taken of local peo ple at their homes and working at their farm tasks. Other fea tures of the program included a comedy skit 'jy the three Smiths, Ernest, Lois and Lucile; a reading, "The Lazy Farmer," by Mrs. Milford Vanderpool, poems, and a song by several of the small fry. By a majority vote of those present, the Table Rock Sunday school was designated as the organization to take over from the School Board of District 6 the care and upkeep of the school building when not being used for school sessions. The Sunday school at last Sunday's session voted to accept the re sponsibility. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Smith, now living at Phoenix, have an O nounced that plans are about complete and work will soon be under way on a new modern home on a plot of land on the Fred Smith lace here. The build ing will be of contemporary de sign, with open beams, lots of light and a flat top, and will be the only flat top in this area. A lady from the Beagle dis trict tells us we did an injustice to Oklahoma people when we reported that skunk eating persons were from that state. She claims to have Investigated the matter, and found the skunk skinners were Oregonians, who must have been eating the ani mals,' as the hides are not worth the skinning. So, we apologize to our good Okie friends; we only reported it the way we heard it. The 200 head of cattle belong ing to Strauss Brothers of Sams Valley, which spent the winter on the Edwin Taylor farm here, were moved last week to pas tures in the Meadows district. During their stay here they con sumed large quantities of hay, and lef the cucumber plots plas tered with what Ray Gill, the seed man, says is the best fer tilizer that can be obtained. The first spring irrigating here was started last week, when Gordon Kershaw turned on his sprinkler system to get his new ly planted nursery stock off to a good start. At the last meeting of the Sams Valley Grange, the chair man of the agriculture commit tee, in his regular report, men tioned that he is buying back seed wheat for $96 a ton that he sold last September for $66. The Leon's and Leon's Tot-To-Teens will be closed Monday to prepare for Big Change of ownership SALE Open Again Tuesday road committee was critical of the way the road maintenance and building work was being handled in this section and throughout the valley. Sometimes farmers are called "cheapskates" because they don't pay wages like other businesses do, as people don't seem to know that farmers pay the same wages as others with a profit added when they buy processed mater ials, or manufactured goods and equipment. Members of the Jackson Coun ty Retired Teachers association are scheduled for a meeting at the home of Mrs. J. S. Richard son, Monday, April 9, at 1:30 p.m. In our items, "Bessie" thought we daiJ bees when we said trees, so Eddie Carlton must have been surprised when he read about growing spuds between his "bee rows" back in 1912. We notice that the new pro posed sales tax, now being worked over for Oregonians for the sixth or seventh time, will exempt medicine. With all the many health nostrums, vitamin pills, whole wheat, blackstrap mollasses, and such, we wonder just what would be considered medicine, but suppose it would be something prescribed by a doctor. When we were a boy, doctors prescribed whiskey and quinine for a malady, known as malaria, "ager" or just plain chills and fever, which attacked people every spring and said to be common in newly settled countries. On the side board in each home there was a jug of whiskey, a small tin cup, and a box o quinine, where every morning each member of the family was supposed to take a measured portion of the two pre ventatives. J. W. Merritt, a Central Point merchant who owned a farm here, furnished the whiskey and quinine for his f aj: m hands, especially during haying. When he found that the quinine was out-lasting the whiskey, he took to mixing the two, and found they lasted much longer that way. We don't know what medi cal value there was in this "medicine,'' but know that the whiskey made you hotter on a hot day. and the quinine made your head roar. Elgin Robinson, an enlistee in the U. S. Air Force, arrived home from Camp Pendleton, Calif., on a 15-day furlough, which he will spend with home folks here, reporting back for duty to Treasure Island in San pllli Xf FIRST QUALITY r p Solid Color Plisse REMNANTS x 4 4 36 in. widths.
