According to all accounts, Russia, as portrayed at the Soviet Fair, is a clickety-click land of modern efficiency, comfort and glitter, and this reported would like to visit that Russia when it is there. It was not there, except for its first glimmerings, when he ended a seven-month stint in Moscow as UPI correspond ent this spring. The lives of the average Russian seem drab and hard by American standards. From the Russian own words, much of their industry and agri culture was still steeped in APPLEGATE VALLEY Historic Sites Marked Br MAUDE ZIEGLER Applegate Valley - Points of historic interest in the Ap plegate Valley; that other wise would go unnoticed by visitors in the area, now are plainly marked with attract ive signs. The signs, in the shape of Oregon, were made by stu dents of Medford schools for the Jackson county Centen nial association. On the signs, besides the name of the par ticular site, is a number which serves as a key in looking up further information in the "Centennial Guide Book to the Wonders of the Rogue River Valley," published by the association. , -One of the sites is Union town, a bustling mining town of the early days, designated as having a post office in 1879. Its' only postmaster, Theodoric ' Camerson, served until 1891. His staunch views on upholding the Union dur ing the Civil war gave the town its name. . UU1 nunc ia OllUlUU wi the sites designated. It was named after the wealthy and influential "boss" of the Chi nese inhabitants in the area. He owned the first hydraulic mine in the Applegate coun try. Kubli mill, also marked, is at the site of the early store and trading post built in 1857 and operated by Casper Kubli. Another of the points of in terest is the site of the village of Logtown and the cemetery, which is still kept up today. The logtown rose, planted in 1863 by a resident of the vil lage still grows beside high way 238, several miles north of Ruch. Last year, members of the Applegate Garden club planted cuttings from the rose along the front border of the cemetery. Herling, designated as a post office and stage stop in July, 1888, is about four miles southwest of Jacksonville. The postoffice was discontin ued in 1895. Also marked is the site where a man by the name of Martin Angel was murdered by Indians in 1856. It is re ported that Angel was buried on the spot. Kanaka Flat, just out of Jacksonville, is designated as the place where mand made bricks were made .for the first building in Jacksonville. The Centennial Guide Book can be obtained at the Cen tennial headquarters in Med ford and at the Siskiyou stockade. A photo of the en trance to Log town cemetery also is shown in the guide book. Ten young people of the valley graduated from high schools last month. Graduates from Grants Pass include Julia Brown, Mariane Gapen, Loraine Teske, Juanita Down ing, Douglas McKay, Truman Elmore and Marvin Gibson. Graduates from Medford in cluded Linda Dahl and Mary Beth Ramsey. Henry Vessell graduated from Jacksonville and is now employed at a Medford service station. Mr. and Mrs. Herb Sut ton of San Diego were recent overnight guests of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Williams. Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Has kins of Medford are spending a few weeks at their summer home here, and were among those inviting a large group of friends for a Fourth of July picnic. Mr. and Mrs. Haskins attended the Portland Rose festival and exposition and later were on a camping and fishing trip in the Lakeview area. Mr. and Mrs. Don Slater and children, Keith and Elaine of San Diego, are new resi dents of the lower Applegate, having purchased the Herb Nelson home. Mr. and Mrs. Nelson and daughter, Anne, are residing in Ashland. After spending a few days here with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ed ... Fossen, Miss Romelle Fossen has returned to University of Oregon as a summer research student in mathematics and science. Ro melle, who has completed her freshman year at the universi ty, was one of a few students selected for the course. Mr. and Mrs. Boyd Hamil ton made a trip to Willow lake and Fish lake recently. Miss Esther Smith, daugh ter, of Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Smith, and Miss Donna Shore of Medfard left by car Satur day for a three week's vaca tion trip to Kansas City, Mo., where they will visit relatives of Miss Shore. l; Al Blumreich, custodian at Ruch school, received a brok en toe and laceration when a cement block fell on his foot recently while working on a remodeling job at the school. The local people attending summer schools are Mrs. Dave Winningham and Miss Sonjia Smith. -Mrs. Winningham pri mary teacher at Jacksonville is . attending University of Oregon and Miss Smith at Southern Oregon college, where she will graduate as an elementary teacher next June. She also is employed at a Med ford department store. The 50 acre ranch home of Mrs. Mildred Smith has been sold to Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Bosworth of Medfor.d, who have taken possession of the property. Mrs. Smith has pur chased a home in Jackson ville. This is. one of the pio neer holdings of the valley, and formerly was owned by the late William and Emma Smith. John Ramsey, who enlisted in the Navy about a year ago, is enrolled in aviation techni cal school in Memphis, Tenn. Rural Reflections: The crowning reward for hard work and noble ambitions has been achieved for-local gar den club women in the cheer ful yellow blossoms appear ing in June on the 65 yellow rose bushes planted at the Log Town cemetery in De cember. The bushes received their second watering last week by the hauling method, a gallon to a bush, and a second saw dust mulch. The ladies report that the soil at the roots of the bushes is maintaining good moisture as a result of the sawdust. The rose originally brought from the Middle west by the McKee family, is classified by Marcel -Le Piniec, local botanist, as the Harrison yel low rose from England. manpower-wasting methods This is not to .say, however, that the organizers of the So viet exhibition in the Colise um on Columbus Circle were out to hoodwink rfhe Ameri can public. If that were so, Russia would not welcome thousands of American tourists every year and permit them to trav el over wide areas of the country. "What Is To Be" " The disparity between some of the claims at the Coliseum and the reality on Cork st., Moscow, may be explained by a state of mind which fuz zes up the borderline between what is and what is to be. "Russia is the country of the bright tomorrow," said a Russian to this reporter. "We've all been living in the future since we were chil dren." He was mocking a Russian trait, but with a touch of pride. The Russians acting as guides at their "Exhibition of Science Technology and Cul ture" must get a sense of pride, too, rather than dis simulation - though they know that many of the 10.000 items on view are less than representative. What if the women's dresses and coats that New Year fash ion writers found fairly good are the pride of Gum's shop windows in Moscow but are seldom seen being worn? What if the men's suits would cost the average Rus sian worker two or three month's wages, and Russians on the street look to Ameri cans as though they were out fitted at a charity sale? The two-toned Volga auto mobile and the small Mosk vitch shown at the exhibition still are luxuries only to be dreamed of by most Russians. The relatively few citizens who can afford cars have to wait a year or longer to buy them (strictly cash). One-Room Apartments The reasonably attractive model apartments at the ex hibition still are not much more than models in the Sovi et Union. Most Russian cities families have one room to live in, sSaring the kitchen and bathroom with other families. Other similar comparisons could be made. But what is more important to the vast majority of Russians is that a big housing construction pro gram at last has begun and that a plan to spread consum er goods and services is in the works. What is more important to them is that the sputniks and the Soviet artificial planets are there, for all the world to marvel at, and that Soviet in dustry at last has produced some industrial machinery that is ahead of America's. Living to the drumbeat of The Plan ("Outstrip America in 14 years," says Premier Ni kita S. Khrushchev) the shab biness and the queueing-up and the burdens of today be come something transitory and almost irrelevant-some-how less real. Seen in that spirit, the So viet Fair in New York must be, as President Eisenhower said a "remarkable exhibit." TRIAL DELAYED Birmingham, Ala.-(IIPD-The trial of a suburban housewife. charged with robbing two sav ings and loan associations was postponed Monday until Oct. 12 because of injuries she re ceived in a fire Sunday night.
