tiltit nrrr" ' -t essstfl-ssC-'' SKETCH OF KERB YVILLE Artist's ketch of the proposed Kerbyville Ghost Town being constructed at Eight Dollar road and Redwood highway in the Illinois valley for the Oregon Centennial observance. Reconstruction of Kerbyville Starts In Illinois Valley Cave Junction Recon struction of Kerbyville, coun ty seat of Josephine county from 1858 to 1885, has been started at the intersection of Eight Dollar road with the Redwood highway, about one mile north of the present vil lage of Kerby. Kerbyville was the first town in the county to be platted and laid out. In 1857, Dr. Daniel Holton, then prac ticing in Waldo, with the con sent of Jim Kerby, hired a Mr. Truax to make a townsite survey, laying it out in lot3 and blocks on the south por tion of Kerby'i 160 acre do nation claim. The new plat was first re corded in December, 1858, under the name of "Napol eon. In 1860 legislature changed the name to Kerby ville, county seat of Jose phine county. Replica of Mala Street The Kerbyville Ghost Town now under construc tion will ba a replica of the main street and will have a blacksmith shop, a livery sta ble with horses and ponies or hire, an assayer's office, sheriffs office and jail house; tha general store will boast tha old open cracker barrel I and the pot-bellied stove which ara reminiscent of the ara. Western clothes and acces sories will be available in the dry goods store, a souvenir and gift shop and a barber hop. ara planned. The old Blue Goose saloon will house a tenderfoot bar and Juke box "dance hall" for the teenagers, while the old Pioneer hotel will be the , headquarters for the street dances to be held every Sat- , urday night. Chuck wagon barbecue will be served daily. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Sowell who are heading the enter prise said the official grand opening will be staged as a Fourth of July celebration and they will continue to op- erata throughout the Centen nial observance. They hope to have a de scendent of the pioneer wom an who raised the first flag over Kerbyville to perform the flag raising ceremony which will mark the official opening of "Kerbyville Ghost Town.' State Parks Show Increase in Use Salem Oregon's s't ate parks has a record 10 million visitors during 1958, C. H. Armstrong, the highway com mission's state parks superin tendent, has announced. The total of 10,082,014 is a 16 per cent increase over the number who visited the parks in 1957, the previous high year, and 65 per cent above 1954, also a record vis itors year. . Ben Hur; Lampman State park near Gold Hill had 12,- 558 visitors. Other southern Oregon attendance figures were Casey state park, 58,317; McLeod, 19,956; Tou Velle, 95,184; and Tubb Springs, 40,359. Armstrong said the figures were computed by use of a complete automobile count at all state parks and a conserv ative estimate of three per sons per vehicle. West Virginia is a leading U.S. producer of bituminous coal and often accounts for 30 per cent or more of the en tire national output.

One northern lib&ral. Rep. Abraham J. Multer (D-N.Y.), said he felt the mix-up over Jimmy could be "worked out quietly with the House lead ership." He said involvement of other congressmen in the situation might only make matters worse. But chairman Francis E Walter (D-Pa.), of the Demo cratic Patronage Committee said creation of an extra page boy post would not , help Jimmy, 14, the Chicago lad who came to Washington thinking he had a job and found out that he didn't. Walter said more than a dozen congressmen other than Rep. Barratt O'Hara (D-HI.), Jimmy's sponsor, woulfl have the right under House senior ity rules to claim any Rpst. O'Hara pressed ahea& aa his attempt to rally BOPfrSesH liberal congiessmen o sup port a resolution that wwuia create the special jeS fctf Jimmy. The doughty Irish man vowed that he tpeuig sot "stand by and eee thi fine boy go home with a Bre&en heart because of a mieunde? standing." Reps. James BaoaewiH (Sf- Calif.), anfl Adam Claytom Powell (D-N.Y.), aifi they would join O'Hara in suppo ing the resolution.

Joe K. - She never told me the. whole truth. Terry K. - My husband and I have been married three years and have a 2-year-old son. I was no angel before I married him and I never pre tended to be one. I had an illegitimate child when I was 16. The baby was given out for adoption. Even after that I didn't learn my lesson, but had other affairs. Finally, I realized that I'd better get wise to myself and try to settle down and live a decent life. The reason I told my hus band about my past is that I didn't want him finding out from someone else and then throwing it up at me. So what happens? Now everytime we have a fight he starts throw ing it up at me anyway. We have been fighting a lot and I feel that it's very bad for our son. He is getting old enough to start repeating the things his father says. Joe K. Terry makes out quite a case for herself quite a case, considering she never told me the whole truth. I found out plenty of little things after we were married - things she didn't think were even worth mentioning be fore. What I'd like to know how muci more is she holding out on me. I married Terry against n? mother's opposition. My mother is a quiet, conserva tive woman. She was shocked when she first met Terry. The women' in my family don't talk or dress or act the way she does. My mother told sw Terry was just no good zseA I'd never be hsgpy with her. When we go out I get em barrassed by the wey Terry dresses and acts. All the men look after her. I try to get her to ton down, but nothing I say seems to help. Shs cast't hifie ter real nature. Soe.

As far as we can see he is complaining because Terry is different from the women in his family and from the ideal they set for him. That she was drastically dif ferent from them was some thing he knew very well be fore marriage. It looks as though Joe went childishly overboard in seeking his mate. He sought and found a woman who rep resented freedom from all sexual restraint. Now he feels guilty about the whole thing, but he chooses to punish Terry instead of himself for bis supposed misbehavior. The touching part of this story - that Joe doesn't seem to understand that he repre sents to Terry the good, de cent life she wants. She sought and found a man with a prop er family background and rigid standards of behavior. Probably she felt that he would not only be a good husband and father, but would help keep her in line. Joe ought to wise up and recog nize that his wife wants to become all he admires in women. She needs his sympa thy and encouragement, not his cruel, childish disparage ment.

ADVERTISERS C MSIIliiiiiii mat rrr ircuiation yaiue In the same way that sterling on silver signifies 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 v 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 that 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-read A.B.C. reports which are available to our advertisers on request.
