TABLE ROCK
Air Force Man Visits
By H. E. NEALON
Table Rock Jimmy Halfhill
of the U.S. Air Force was home
for a few days last week, coming
from the training camp at Elgin
Fla. From here he went to Phoe
nix, Ariz., where he will spend
three weeks in observing the
making of a new type of air
plane. He and one other boy
were selected from the many in
the camp for this special work.
Mrs. Clyde Halfhill and young
on, accompanied by Mrs. Edna
Campbell, Mrs. Halfhill's moth
er, moved the first of the week
to Medford. They had been liv
ing in one of the houses on the
Table Top ranch.
According to word from Clyde
Halfhill, he will finish his school
ing in. the Air Force next July,
and will then be assigned to per
manent quarters, where he will
be joined by his wife and son
A new club formed recently In
the community, a sort of a
Ladies club auxiliary. It has
some ten members, young misses
from - the first to the eighth
grades, who meet the same day
as the Ladies club, which is the
second Wednesday of each
month. The meeting place is at
the home of Glenna May Brown,
who is president. The dues are
a penny each, to be paid every
meeting date.
The present wet weather gives
one some idea of how accurate
are the long range weather fore
casts given by farm magazines
published in the east, which
called for three months of dry
weather, commencing in April.
Jack Cline, salesman for Cra
ter Lake motors, was a local bus
iness visitor here Tuesday.
John Walsh, of Lake Creek
district, was a business visitor
here the first of the week.
The cottage on the east side
of the creek, on the former
Goodlin farm, is being remodeled
and enlarged, and will be occu
pied when finished by the Bill
Meeks family, now living in
Medford. The family has two
children, a girl, 2, and a 7-year-old
boy attending, school.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dunn and
on, Jerry, left Thursday morn
ing by car for San Francisco to
visit relatives and friends there.
The last meeting of the Table
Rock Ladies club held Wednes
day at the home of Mrs. Orville
Hamilton turned out to be a sort
of homecoming, with some 22
ladies present, some coming from
quite a distance. Several of the
small fry were present, and a
number of babes in arms.
Paul Molloy, the pipe-smoking
office-manager of the Grange
Coop., asked us about news, and
4hen proceeded to tell us more
than we knew. He said he came
here in 1937,' after checking
weather charts for all coast
states and finding this locality
had an ideal precipitation record.
During the month of May that
year, he said it rained almost
continuously, which caused him
to leave for dryer parts, but in
later years he checksd with the
weather bureau, and found that
the month of May of that year
was the wettest since the estab
lishing of the weather bureau
We recently read "Everybody'
Doing It" in the March issue of
the Farm Journal, and found that
support prices paid the farmers
are a mere drop in the bucket
compared to the billions handed
out by Uncle Sam to others. Per
sonally we have never been keen
about farm subsidies, but we re
member something the farmers
got that wasn't a subsidy. Back
in World War I, when the world
was critically short of wheat and
the American farmers could
have had the world by the tail
with a down pull, the govern
ment clamped a ceiling on
wheat, which broke many farm
ers who had gone all out answer
ing the nation s call for wheat
Mrs. J. S. Richardson and
granddaughter, Debra May, left
Friday morning by plane for
Portland, where Debra will re
turn to her home, after a two
weeks visit here with her grand
parents. Mrs. Richardson expects
to return Sunday.
Among recent Table Rock vis
itors were Mr. and Mrs. George
Turner of Ashland, Mr. and Mrs,
E. P. Leavitt of Old Stage rd.,
the Robert Sage family of Med
ford, Mr. and Mrs. O. T. Wilson
of Central Point, John Payne of
Payne's Gulch, the Ralph Reis-
inger family of Medford, and the
Cary Taber and Milo Hardin
families of Medford.
Mrs. James Lewis and daugh
ter, Jan, of Forest Grove are
spending this week visiting with
home folks at the Orville Ham
ilton home.
Mrs. Ray Bosworth returned
Thursday from Lee Summit, Mo.,
where she attended the spring
term at Unity Headquarters
school for teachers.
The next meeting of the Table
Rock Community club will be
held at TouVelle Park Friday,
May 25, with a potluck dinner at
6:30 p.m.
Matthews Transferred

Deputy Sheriff Joseph Walsh
Saturday escorted Orval J. Mat
thews, 36, Deming, N.M., to the
state penitentiary where Mat
thews will begin a 10-year sen
tence for uttering and publish
ing a forged instrument.
He was found guilty of the
