As Mrs. Bray unwrapped the
packages to display crib blank
ets, tiny sweaters and sweet little
baby bonnets, the "guests'' and
hpsts who watched were for the
most part men wearing blue
jeans and cowboy boots.
Friendly Pop Hoover, from
whose fertile brain came the
idea for the "Buckaroo Baby
shower" served as master of
ceremonies for the party. Tak
ing the microphone from Mr.
Bray, Mr. Hoover said the cattle
men who patronize the auction
operated by Mr. and Mrs. Bray
hold Mrs. Bray in especially high
esteem. She is always friendly
and cooperative and never fails
to have a kind word and smile
for everyone, Mr. Hoover said.
He reminded the men and wo
men in the stands that stock
men and their families are more
interested in babies and ap
preciate them more than do some
people baby calves, baby lambs
and baby pigs as well as well as
the boy and girl crop.
Because they were as pleased
as the Brays at the prospect of
a fourth child in the auc
tioneer's family, Mr. Hoover
said the cattlemen were happy
to show their appreciation by
giving the "buckaroo shower."
The Brays' three sons, who
help their father and mother at
the auction when not in school,
were interested observers at the
party. The boys are William, 12,
Robert, almost 10, and John, 8.
The family lives on Route 2,
Central Point and all five of
them are hoping that the new
est little Bray will be a baby
sister.
The bassinet which was pre
sented to the Brays is something
of an heirloom. M r s. Hoover,
who renovated and recovered it
for Mrs. Bray, said she obtained
it many years ago from Mr. and
Mrs. Donn Piatt of Medford, who
had first used it. The Hoover's
sons, Claud and Melvin, slept in
it as babies and then it was loan
ed to 12 or 15 different couples
; Mrs. Hoover can't remember
'. how many, until the Hoover
grandchildren came along, and
i it was used for each grandchild.
i When Mrs. Bray no longer has
any need for the basket, Mrs.
i Hoover expects to make it ready
I for some other child.
The Brays came to Jackson
county from Yreka, California in
1945 and have operated the Mid-
i way auction since then. O.S.
