A ' Phoenix - The executive committee of the Women's as sociation of Phoenix Presby terian church will meet at the church at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, September 15 afternoon hour. The change Regular monthly meeting of the association will be Thursday, September 17, at 7:30 p jn. instead of the usual of time has been made for the convenience of women of the church who are engaged in the fruit harvest or. are working at other jobs. . Family night will be held at the church the fourth Fri day of each month. , . Parjpy and Potpourri set bad examples for. the younger generation. Instead of staying home over the Labor day week end and laboring in the house and yard, both of which need a bit of tidying before winter sets in, we took off and spent Sunday night camping in Crater Lake National park. We had wonderful luck, too. We discovered a campground near the now unused east entrance to the park which could accommodate a large number of campers and which only three families used Sunday night. The campground nearest the lake was full by mid-afternoon Sunday, and when we inquired at the information center, the ranger on duty, for some strange reason or .the other, distinctly said there were only two camping locations in the park and didn't even mention the one on Lost creek which we eventually used. But sine it was given on the park map, we took the road Indicated and ended up in the delightfully isolated spot. That , part of the park also has another ' attraction, the Interesting rock formations called The Pinnacles which neither of us had seen before. These slender spires of pumice, some of which are 200 feet high, were carved. out by the wind and water erosion. They rise out of Wheeler creek canyon and it is an eerie sensation to stand at the edge of the road and look down at the needle-like formations. When Potpourri wondered what it would be like to be down at the bottom of the canyon and look up at the pin nacles, Pappy said "Well, if you decide to go down and find out, I'll come back next spring. It would take you about that long to get out again." ItTs always a minor adventure to find out who is camping next door, so Potpourri called out a greeting to the big blonde young man who came over to drop cans in the gar bage container. He in turn invited the two of us to visit at his camptire and have some coffee, which we did. His wife was an attractive petite brunette and they introduced them selves as two psychiatric social workers from Ukiah, Calif., by the name of Galbraith. " The young couple came west from .Boston about a year ago and said, "We love it out here - it's fabulous." It was their first trip up into Oregon, and Mr. G, said "everything is so green." . ' Both said that they found their work intensely winter est ing, even though the! type that took them away from home and to the hospital where they vork, at all times of the day and night. ".. . . . '.. , '.-,-.,' ' The four of us didn't linger around the campfire very long, for the park was damp-from a heavy rain Sunday morning, and the night was clearing and nippy. - Potpourri particularly enjoyed the utter quiet and peace of Lost Creek . campground. : There was no travel on the nearby dead-end road, the other ' campers retired early and the only sounds were the murmur of . the little stream and an occasional whisper of wind among the pine branches. ' In the morning there were no planes, no noisy log trucks, no barking dogs and no crowing roosters to waken us. The sun came up warm and bright, the family from Washington which had camped across ; the creek was on the 'way by 7 o'clock and again it was quiet. Except for one noise. Every now and then there would be a tiny thud in the grove of pines nearby and we soon discovered that the cones were falling. But wfiy weren't the cones falling in our camp? A little craning of the neck and. watching brought an answer. A pine squirrel, which earlier sat on a limb and chattered away for a few seconds, was busily cutting the cones off and letting them fall. Presumably this was his private harvesting of food against the time when snow will cover the trees and the ground. ;. 'A little later we had another. visitor, the friendliest im aginable little chipmunk. He toured the camp; completely unafraid, gnd not finding any food,; came over to where we sat by the fire. He nibbled gently at ,a finger and then boldly jumped up on a knee where he sat, begging. Next time: we camp in Crater . Lake- park, we'll take - popcorn or peanuts or some: other, chipmunk delicacy.' It's, the least we can do, particularly since we'd enjoyed our stay so thorough ly. - ,5;.- r'p-m:: V-..; -t;-; v; Potpourri had a shocking experience one morning last week. Only half -awake and brooding over our first cup of breakfast coffee, we looked up and thought a strange man had taken the chair opposite.-It was Pappy, Sure enough, but he had shaved off his beautiful Centennial whiskers.
