Try and Stop Me

IF YOU CAN STAND any more of those stories of outer-space
robots landing on earth and demanding audience with kings,
queens, hydrants, pinball machines and what-not, there's a new
one about the- Martian who
caught his first glance of a
blinker light at an intersec
tion. A crafty look came
into his metallic eyes. "Oh,
no, you don't," he chuckled,
"my mother warned me in
advance about dames like
you.''
Howard Lindsay tells about
a Hollywood star and his wife
who rented a. farm for a sum

They loved everything about
it. To accommodate visitors,

In a shack in the back garden. They returned happily a year later,
but alas! the extra washroom had disappeared.
The farmer was apologetic but firm. "I had to take it down, he
admitted. The neighbors began saying I had gone high-hat,

Upper Applegate Grange
' An interesting resume of
the history of atomic energy,
with a glimpse of a few of the
benefits it can afford, were
outlined by H. P. Bosworth
Jr., Medford, at a meeting in
Upper Applegate Grange hall
March 27.'
Nothing in the previous his
tory of man has had such
phenomenal growth in such a
brief period of time as has
atomic energy, the speaker as
serted, .offering as evidence
the fact'that in 1939 the U. S.
government appropriated a
total of $6,000 for atomic
energy development, while in
1958, only 19 years later, ap
propriations for this purpose
totalled S2 billion, $300 mil
lion, with physical property
held by the Atomic Energy
commission valued at $8 billion.

In the last five years, dur
ing which private industry has
been given access to informa
tion in regard to atomic
energy, Bosworth has made
a special study of its possibil
ities as a source of power, in
connection with his work as
vice president of Copco, he
stated. It is his belief that it
will be in active competition
with coal, gas, oil, and hydro
electric power within a period
of 12 to 15 years. However,
he is convinced it is probable
that within an additional 50-
year period, atomic energy, in
turn, will become obsolete and
will be superceded by hydro
gen energy derived from sea
water.
One cubic mile of sea water
could supply sufficient hydro
gen energy to meet total power
needs for the entire world at
present levels for 300 years.
Hydrogen energy possesses a
marked advantage over atomic
energy, he stated, in that it
is not radio-active, and hence
creates no dangerous wastes
which must be disposed of.
Since our present knowl
edge extends only to methods
for unleashing hydrogen pow
er, the primary problem is to
learn how to control it. Even
more basic than that, the
speaker feels, is the necessity
for man to learn to control
himself in order that his men
tal and spiritual progress may
equal what he has achieved
scientifically, "lest we inevit
ably come a cropper."
Commenting on the confer
ence now in progress in Ge
neva which seeks to ban
further testing of nuclear
weapons, Bosworth stated that
agreement has already been
reached on seven articles of
the proposed treaty, which,
when completed, will be
unique in the annals of inter
national pacts in that it is to
be administered, not by the
signatories, but by the United
Nations, and that it will be
open to any nation desiring to
sign it.
A film, "Workshop for
Peace," portraying the day-to-day
work of the United Na
tions was a'so presented by
the speaker, who stressed that
the role of the UN is a dual
one, its purpose being not only
to keep the peace, but also to
work constantly to remove
the causes of war.
Preceding the discussion
and film, Bob Church, of Med
ford, representing the U. S.
weather bureau, presented
pins to Vieva Saltmarsh and
Christine Harr denoting 15
years of faithful service as
volunteer weather observers,
the former in the Little Ap
plegate region, and the latter
in the area near Copper. -
In keeping with the Easter
season, a Grange chorus sang
"The Old Rugged Cross," and
the program concluded with
community singing, following
which refreshments of sand
wiches and coffee were
served. Decorations in the hall
and dining room combined
spring blossoms and Easter
motifs and were arranged by
Mrs. Kathleen Scovell and
rMrs. Anna Scott. Mrs. Marie
Bosworth, Oregon's Mother of
the Year, was presented dur
ing the refreshment hour. She
was responsible for the dis
play table which featured UN
literature and interesting,
hand-made items from the
United Nations gift shop
which she secured during her
recent visit to UN headquar
ters in New York.
In the regular business ses
sion of the Grange which fol
lowed, Curtis O. and Eva
Gearhart of Applegate were
elected to membership in the
order and plans were made
for their initiation.
Report of the relief commit
tee indicated Mrs. Ethel West
is recovering following minor
throat surgery; Mrs. Dorothy
Post is improving from a se
vere illness caused by a heart
condition; Mrs. Mary France
is convalescing at her home
after being in a Medford hos
pital where she under went
major surgery; Harry Helms
is also at home after being
hospitalized; and Robert Bay
lor is being treated for a spinal
condition in Rogue Valley hos
pital. Following the report of
Legislative Chairman Anna
Scott, a motion was passed
authorizing the secretary to
express to Senator Edwin
Durno and Representatives
Robert Duncan and Eve Nye
the opposition of Upper Ap
plegate Grange to Senate Bill
222, the so-called hay bill,
which would set up rules and
regulations for farmers haul
ing hay for their own use; to
Senate Bill 470 pertaining to
the muzzling of dogs running
at large on property of their
owners; and to express ap
proval of the Grange to House
Bill 629. which pertains to
the humane slaughtering of
animals.
A total of $30 for use of
the hall for two Centennial
events was turned in to the
treasurer together with S21.25
from the square dance work
shop now completed. Public
square dances were announced
for the evenings of March 28
and April 11, and for the
second Saturday night in each
succeeding month thereafter,
by Fred West, co-chairman of
the ways and means commit
tee. A brief report of the Po
mona visitation to Phoenix
Grange March 24 was given
by Secretary Irene Culy, who
stated that 18 officers and
members attended from Upper
Applegate Grange.
Chairman of the four units
into which the membership
was divided last year for the
presentation of open house
programs will be honored at
a 6:30 pot luck dinner pre
ceding the next regular meet
ing of the Grange April 10, it
