office recently. Retiring Mayor

Saunders was in office only
three days, the election results
were reversed by a recount, and
he had to step out in favor of J.
Clifton Hurlbert.

birthday anniversary of Mrs.
Olive Dean, was observed Sun
day, June 10 at her home. About
80 friends and relatives from all
sections of the valley called on
her.
Long tables were set up on

the family who assisted are Mrs.
J. C. Dean, Grants Pass, Mrs. J.
E. Glass, Mrs. Milly Glass, Mrs.
Kenneth Roberts and the Misses

of the old pioneer home built by
N. C. Dean, who arrived in the
valley when only 21 other white
persons were residents here. He
and his bride, Miss Anna Hus
ton, who arrived some two years
later by covered wagon, were
the first white couple married
in Jackson county. This wedding
took place in a log cabin built

The couple was attended by

MORE WIDOWS
On the national average, wom
en live 6 years longer than their
husbands and are about 3 years
younger, making a 9-year dif
ference in the life expectancies
of average couples. Thus 13 per
cent of women are widows while
only 4 per cent of men are
widowers. Add this to the fact
that men leave their estates,
large and small, to their widows
and you see why so much of the
nation's wealth is in the hands
of women.
