TABLE ROCK
Vacation Bible School Set
By JL E. NEALON
Table Rock Daily Vacational
Bible school is scheduled to
start here Monday morning,
June 4, with Mr. and Mrs. Allen
' Hill of Central Point and Mrs.
Dale Schulz of Sams Valley as
teachers.
The sessions will be held in
the scholhouse, commencing at
9 a.m. and running to 11:30 five
days of the week. Some 26 chil
dren, including several from
Sams Valley, are expected to at
tend. Harvesting the first cutting of
alfalfa has started here, but is
progressing rather slowly owing
to cloudy weather and heavy
nightly dew which retards dry
ing operations.
Some 50 acres of corn, have
been planted on tha. Table Top
farms, the young plants now
showing up in rows and about
ready for the cultivators.
The corn from these fields,
stalk and all. will be made into
silage and stored in the silos on
the farm and used wiAi the usual
crop of hay to feed the ranch
herd of 300'cattle.
Paul Schulz. the Sams Valley
farmer, a business visitor here
the first of the week, says he has
completed the cultivation of his
corn with a new cultivator gad
get for his tractor. Says he got
off of center now and then and
plowed up a few plants, which
should please Secretary Benson,
as there is already a corn sur
plus.
The Mother"s day prizes given
out by the local Sunday school
went to Mrs. Milford Vanderpool
as the oldest mother present,
Mrs. Donald Wheeler took the
prize awarded to the youngest
mother. Mrs. William Bishop
with her five youngsters present
was the winner of the prize for
the mother with the largest num
ber of children, and Mrs. Lloyd
Vanderpool won for being the
mother with the youngest child
present.
Leroy Calkins finished ditch
cleaning operations here last
week, after doing considerable
work for the ditch company on
the main irrigation canal and
other work on dram ditches for
individual farmers.
About 40 members of the Ta
ble Rock Community club were
present Friday evening at the
potluck dinner in TouVelle park,
which was the last meeting of
the season for the club. Every
one had an enjoyable time, de
spite the fact that the mosquitos
were a little more alert than
usual.
Mr. Bill Bishop is selling some
of her household goods, furni
ture and furnishings .also poul
try, livestock, farm tools and
miscellaneous items, prior to
leaving about June 15 for their
new home in Kansas City, Kan.
Many parents and other local
people attended the eighth grade
graduation ceremonies at Central
Point Tuesday night, where
eight local students were among
the class. Richard Morris is the
lone high school graduate from
the Table Rack district this year.
Wednesday was sheep shearing
day for the Table Rock farm
herds. They were rounded up
between showers and threaten
ing thunderstorms. Among those
having their wooly 48 cent coats
removed were Abigail, the Doty
bummer sheep, and Jennie, the
Bishop bummer, the mother of
Booker T, and Lucy.
Don Grissom. the obliging
Lake Creek fleecer, did the
trimming, the same bashful bach
elor that not so long ago we were
trying to find a wife mate for.
This time he had in his car a
bassinet with some jingling doo
dads strung across the top. and
he tells us he has a wife at home
and something to go in the bass
inet that keeps him awake at
night, but so far hasn't had to
walk the floor with.
At the primary election May
18 at the schoolhouse some 250
voters managed to get to the
polls, which was a few over
half the registered voters in the
precinct.
Bob Kuril's "Purely Preferen
tial" candidates seemed to fare
pretty well, with Phil Hitchcock
leading McKay. Elmo Smith
winning for governor, Mark Hat
field for secretary of state, and
Walt Nunley nosing out Rode
for district attorney.
On the Democratic ballot,
Wayne Morse got 111 votes to
his opponent's IS, four write-ins
for senator on the Republican
ballot, and four write-ins on the
Democratic ballot for vice pres
ident. But strange as it may
seem, Robert Holmes was- badly
beaten by Lew Wallace, who had
withdrawn from the race sev
eral weeks before the election.
Friday evening, after the polls
were closed we asked people we
happened to .meet if they had
voted. The first lady we asked
said she and her husband hadn't
voted for eight years.
Altogether, we asked some 12
persons, people that we sus
pected had failed to exercise
their righ of suffrage. Our sus
picions proved correct, as not
one of those we questioned had
voted at the election, and the
time since they had voted ran
from two years to never. Most
of them were not registered,
some had never been. The rea
sons for not voting were varied,
running from not being inter
ested to changing locations, too
much trouble and not being al
lowed to vote.
One lady claiming that she
voted two years ago in the Wil
low Springs precinct, but when
she asked for a ballot there,
found her name was not on the
poll book, the mistake presum
ably being made in the county
cierk's office.
Of those qestioned. ten would
have voted Democratic, and two
said they would like to have
voted on both ballots.
The Ray Doran family spent
last Sunday visiting with rela
tives near Crescent City, Calif.
Mrs. W. M. Howsley left by
motor car last week for points
in Missouri to spend several
weeks visiting relatives.
Among recent visitors here
who were residents of our com
munity in days gone by were
Mr. and Mrs. William Barton,
the former Grace Morrison who
lived here as a child, the Morri
son home being located near
what is now the Aubrey Taylor
home.
Mrs. Clyde Briggs of Oakland,
Calif., and her son, Keith Greg
ory and family, visited here with
relatives at the E. W. Robinson
home.
Jimmy Halfhill, airman second
class of the U. S. Air Force, is
spending a short leave of ab
sence here with home folks,

According to a news release in
a recent issue of the Central
Point American, two citizens of
our local community appeared
before a meeting of the school
board of District 6 and protested
the turning over to the Table
Rock Sunday school the now
vacant schol building. In check
ing with the school board we
found that the opposition im
plied that the school board might
be turning over the property to
an irresponsible group that
would let the building go to
rack with no funds to repair it,
and perhaps disband, letting the
property fall into other hands
that might not operate it for the
good of the community.
As to being responsible, we
don't know of any other group
that would be more morally fit
or dependable to handle a deal
like this and keep it on a re
spectable basis than a Sunday
school.
As to disbanding, we have
been around here for a number
of years and have seen organiza
tions of many kinds come and
go, but since we can remember
this community has always
maintained a Sunday school
where all were welcome, irres
pective of race, creed, or church
affiliation.
