Or Rockin' Chair
Could Have Got Her
Chorlton-on-Medlock, Eng
land -d?D- Granny Byrne did
not know it but the ole rock
in' chair could have got her
at any moment. It was full of
dynamite.
The rocking chair was
bought by Mrs. Cathleen
Clarke from a neighbor, Mrs.
Ann O'Leary, who was mov
ing to the United States.
Then along came Granny
Mrs. Mary Byrne of Dublin
on a visit. It was such a com

and sat for long hours hap
pily rocking by the fire.
One day a letter arrived
from Mrs. O'Leary saying she
had learned one of the three
upholstered chairs she sold
the Byrnes was "full of ex
plosives." A search disclosed the rock

mite, hidden there by a bur
glar who had rented a room
from Mrs. O'Leary. The bur
glar, since jailed, told police
and they told her.
But now the dynamite is
gone and Granny is once more
rocking in her favorite rock-
here damaging a photograph

timated at more than $50,000.
The blaze burned through

Grange News
Upper Applegate Grange
In a general discussion of
possible recreation sites that
might be developed in con
junction with the county
court in the Upper Applegate
area, members of Upper Ap
plegate Grange, at their regu
lar meeting Sept. 26, reported
that strong opposition had
been voiced by owners of
property adjoining the Cam
eron bridge site with regard
to its possible future use as a
county camp and picnic
ground.
Since no response had been
received from the non-resident
owner of the contemplated site
in reply to an offer made some
time ago by the county court
to purchase the property, -it
was felt there was little likeli
hood of its being secured and
developed for public recrea
tion purposes.

Grange had proposed assisting
the county court in such devel
opment of the tract as a com
munity service project.
Inasmuch as thetrange ex
ists for the primary purpose
of promoting agriculture, and
since farmers owning land ad
joining other possible county
park sites in the Upper Apple
gate, are voicing similar ob
jections to their being acquir
ed and used in this manner be
cause of indiscriminate shoot
ing, petty thefts of farm pro
duce, destruction of fences
and other acts of vandalism
such as are known to have
been perpetrated by some
users of recreation areas else
where in the county, it was
decided to recommend that the
county court consider acqui
sition through special use
agreements of National Forest
or O and C tracts for recrea
tioal development rather than
any sites that adjoin agricul
tural land in the Upper Apple
gate area. Fred West volun
teered to bring this decision
to the attention of the county
court.
It was also pointed out in
the discuussion that if and
when a dam is erected in the
Big Applegate river, the re
sulting lake will offer great
possibilities as a new recrea
tion area for Jackson county.
The Booster Night commit
tee, composed of. Anna Scott,
Edna Sawyer, and Ethel West,
announced that a program of
outstanding Interest has been
arranged- for presentation at
this event Oct. 10, and many
important guests have already
accepted invitations to be
present. Charter members of
Upper Applegate Grange are
to be specially honored during
the evening.
All members are reminded
that this will be an open meet
ing to which each of them is
to bring guests and contribu
tions for the Country Fair.
Farm produce, handicrafts,
home - cooked foods, canned
fruits, jams, jellies, pickles
and the like, displayed at the
Fair will be sold by silent bids.
Report of the relief commit
tee indicated that Aileene Mc
Kee was ill at her home in
Medford. The agriculture com
mittee reported prospects are
good for the continuing of fa
vorable cattle prices and that
the deadline for soil bank sign
ups is Oct. 4. Little change is
foreseen in wheat and hay
prices for 1959, it was stated.
Ways and Means Chairman
Ethel West announced another
square dance for Saturday
evening, Sept. 27 in the
Grange hall. HEC Chairman
Edna Sawyer stated a sum of
$25.68 was taken in at the
food sale held in Jacksonville,
and on behalf of the Home Ec
onomics Committee, presented
$45 to the Grange treasury.
She also stated that sewing
volunteers and transportation
to Camp White had been ar
ranged for the month of Octo
ber but that others would be
needed together with trans
portation for November. Sht
reminded all Grange members
to plan on bringing sand
wiches for Booster Night re
freshments Oct. 10.
The special committee com
posed of Gail Buffington and
Fred West, responsible for se
curing a heater for the Grange
dining room, was authorized
to proceed with this matter as
promptly as possible.
Legislative chairman Wil
liam Nostrand presented a
resume of ballot measures to
be voted on November 4 as
the literary program and it
was decided to devote a sec
ond meeting to this subject on
Oct. 24, when it was felt more
complete information would
be available.
Ed and Nell Ramsay and
Morris and Hazel Byrne com
posed the refreshment com
mittee, serving ice cream,
