Jaycettes Give Truck to Library
The Central Point Jaycettes community libraries have
have presented the Central
Point branch o the Jackson
County library with a hand
truck to be used in the shelv
ing of books, Mrs. Avis Van
Hoy, Central Point librarian,
has announced.
This is the most recent of
several donations made to the
Central Point library by this
organization. A low table and
a set of brightly painted small
chairs to create a children's
corner in the library were
furnished by the Jaycettes re
cently. Jackson county organiza
tions seeking activity projects
are invited to consult their
community librarians for sug
gestions, according to library
director, Miss Helen Webster.
While, in accordance with
the usual practice in county
library systems, the head
quarters library furnishes
books, office supplies, salar
ies, and such services as cata
loging, book repair, and gen
eral professional supervision
for all it community agencies,
e?ch community carries the
responsibility for providing,
furnishing, and maintaining
the local library's quarters,
she said.
Many of Jackson county's
need of additional equipment
such as floor covering, office
desks, magazine racks, and ta
bles and chairs for readers;
and some of them would wel
come volunteers for building
shelving or improving the
decoration, it was pointed
out.- The local librarian
should be consulted in each
case for the particular needs
of any branch.

Today we drove home from Portland. Weather conditions
were just the opposite of what they were on the way up.
We left Portland in a gentle rain and arrived at Medford in
the sunshine which was only partly obscured by smoke in
the. valley. A neighbor boy had very kindly fed my birds
while I was gone and there were many around the place.

Monday. Dec. 1.
The main objective of our morning birding trip was to
begin checking some of the territory in which we will
probably be making our Christmas count. If possible, we want
to find winter feeding territories of certain birds so that we
can locate them more easily on the day of the count. Our
first effort was negative. We looked in a barn near Eaele
Point where we had seen a barn owl in the spring. The owner
said one had been there but we did not find it today. I hope
we can locate some in the next couple of weeks.
We did the best on shore birds today. We found' long
billed dowitchers (like snipe with a big white spot above the
tail) on a pond near town and a spotted sandtriper was again
along Little Butte Creek. These birds must be wintering
here, and perhaps also a couple of western sandpipers which
we saw at a pond on Gregory Road. We saw a particularly
large flock of golden-crowned kinglets in the woods along
Little Butte Creek. .
Another thing we noticed was the large number of
mourning doves, some of them travelling in good sized flocks.
I am very sure that there is no harm in having an open season
on these prolific birds. We also saw a number of cock
pheasants. J. H. thought they seemed to be gloating over their
successful survival of the hunting season. They make ideal
game birds. I wish people would stop wanting to be senti
mental about protecting all birds and get more worried about
protecting the hawks and owls, some of which are getting
alarmingly scarce. ;
In the afternoon I had a call to make in Ashland. On
the way back I took the less travelled roads and looked for
a robin roost. I found that they are using the same spot as
last year along Bear Creek north of Phoenix.
Tuesday, Dec. 2.
Even though the weather was the warmest ever for this
date I decided to increase my bird feeding so that they would
know where to look when they have need. I started throwing
out some extra bird seed from the study window early in the
morning. I also started putting some peanut butter on some
branches of the oak tree. I was surprised to see that white
crowned sparrows and juncos found it right away. I guess
they remembered it from last year. Peanut butter is a favorite
food of many birds.
Wednesday. Dec. 3. i
Ralph Browning called to say that he had also located
the robin roost north of Phoenix. However, he went right to
it and studied it more than I did. He says the starlings are
using it too. He thinks there are about the same number of
robins as last year, but more starlings. He lives in Phoenix
now, so he will have an opportunity to watch the roost. I hope
we will be able to arrive at some fairly accurate estimate of
numbers. It must be very large..
Thursday, Dec. 4. .
I had a phone call from a man in the Wagner Creek area
asking about large flocks of birds feeding in the pastures.
From the description I judged that they were starlings.
In the afternoon I was driving down the Coleman Creek
road toward Phoenix and I observed some of these large
flocks of starlings myself. They were feeding in xne pear
orchards. There certainly are plenty of them. I suppose
this will be the pattern. The starlings will keep on increasing
each year, migrating in from further east each fall, and soon
beginning to nest here too.
Sneaking of numbers, my caller irom wagner ureeK saia
he had lived in this valley all his life and he believed that
there are many more birds here now than there were when he
was a boy. This confirms my own conjecture. I know that
the bird population is denser in the settled parts oi tne vaney
than in the brushy hillsides around it. irrigation and agricul
ture make it possible for these areas to support more birds.

In the same way that sterling on silver signiu.es
a standard of known value, so is the A.B.C. em
blem a symbol of integrity for the circulation of
newspapers and periodicals. It means that circu
lation so identified is measured according to the
rules and standards of the Audit Bureau of
Circulations
The A.B.C. is a cooperative and non-profit
association of 3,450-publishers, advertisers and
advertising agencies. Organized in 1914, these
buyers and sellers of advertising brought order
out of advertising chaos by setting
up standards for paid circulation
and establishing rules and methods
for measuring, auditing and report
ing circulations.
Therefore, the work of the A.B.C.,
of which this newspaper is proud to
be a member, provides you with a direct and
valuable service. You can buy advertising as you
would make any other sound business investment
on the basis of well known standards, known
values.
At regular intervals one of the Bureau's large
staff of experienced circulation auditors makes a
thorough audit of our circulation records. The
results of this exacting audit show: How much
circulation we have; where our circulation goes;
how it was obtained; and many other facts thai
you need in order to know just what
you get for your advertising dollars
This audited information is pub
lished by the Bureau in easy-to-reac
A.B.C. reports which are available
to our advertisers on request. Ask
