Road Problems
Discussed at
Happy Camp Meet
By VIVIAN STEVENSON
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Happy Camp - The road
committee of the Happy Camp
Lions club met at Buckhorn
lodge Thursday. Don Avery
and Bill Ealy, county super
visors, were present along
with Al Powers, county road
commissioner.
Powers assured members
that they would move the
county construction crew in to
rebuild and reline Indian
Creek road as soon as the
right-of-way situation was
cleared up. It seems some of
the property owners were not
willing to donate land for this
project and the county is in
no position from a financial
standpoint to buy the right-of-ways.
The road committee prom
ised to call on all property
owners concerned and secure
deeds if possible. In the in
stances where they fail they
are to report to Powers, who
in turn will present the prob
lem to the supervisors, who
promised to build a good road
as far as they can with the
money available.
Money Not Listed
No specific amount of
money was mentioned for the
project but In as much as they
Intend to use the regular
county construction crew it
was generally believed they
could do four or five miles
this year.
After lunch, a delegation
of people who live in the
vicinity of Live Oak drive
and Buckhorn Lodge road ar
rived and requested oil on
their roads for relief of dust.
Powers and Hammond, road
foreman, promised to do this
between June 15 and July 1.
Rural Reflections
By MAUDE ZIEGLER
Applegate Valley - A num
ber of gals have got into
dilemmas lately. Whether the
officers should wear pedal
pushers for the barbecue din
ner extension ladies had in
Cyrena Davis' spacious picnic
area along Rogue River when
they would be receiving cor
sages posed a problem. But
(he wearing of dresses pre
vailed. Thclma Jones was faced
with another perplexing. temp
tation the same day when she
was asked as a practicing host
ess to gather grasses and wild
flowers for the outdoor tables
when loads of lilacs were sit
ting around in bouquets. So
she mixed the grasses, butter
cups, and lilacs with nice
results.
Kay Kammerer was getting
ready to bait her hook with
little balls of cheese in antici
pation of a Squaw Lake trout,
when a visiting dog named
"Lady" ate up the cheese. Kay
said she just was not used to
dogs, and would have laid a
beef steak down in the same
manner.

Out on i
a Limb
By BOB WALTERS
A Large Squash
Almost anyone can write a
book and have it published
nowadays. All they need is a
little extra cash.
Numerous firms specialize
in publishing books written
by unknown authors. The
writer, naturally, has to foot
the bill for printing, distri
bution, publicity and so on.
Although no one may ever
buy a copy of his book (which
is the case most of the time,
I suspect), the author can
truthfully say he has written
a book, it has been published
and It has been read - by the
proofreader, if no one else.
The results of these do-it-yourself
efforts, addressed to
"Book Review Editor," are
received regularly by most
newspapers. The Mail Trib
une, fortunately perhaps, has
no book reviewer, thus most
of the volumes eventually
wind up in someone's circular
file.
I got to feeling sorry for
all these authors who pour
ed the blood, sweat and
tears of their lives into
their literary works, only
to have their books cast
aside by sardonic editors,
often without so much as a
glance.
So today I'll be a book
reviewer. (There goes
Great While Father waving
that severance paycheck
at me again.)
One volume which should
tug at your heartstrings is en
titled "Struggle for Justice"
and, the jacket says, is the
story of "an immigrant's life
as a farmer in Saskatchewan
and apartment house builder
in Los Angeles."
It s written by the one and
only Abe L. Plotkin and, not
surprisingly, contains numer
ous photographs of Abe L.
Plotkin. Don t miss it .
Another book received
recently looks like it might
have to be sold under the
counter. On the Jacket is a
photograph of a well-proportioned
young lady sil
ling on a couch. She's clad
only in a slip and is busily
rolling down her stockings.
It's entitled "How I Made
a Million Dollars."
But don't jump to any
conclusions. It's written by
men.
Try and figure that one
out.
The real classic, though, ar
rived Saturday morning. It's I
called "1,200 Russian Prov
erbs."
This slender little volume .
it packed with some truly pro
found thoughts, a few of ,
which I'll pass along. Inter-1
pret them as you like.
"Not every flower is a I
rose."
"A small cantaloupe Is
worth more than a large
squash." (You might check
that one with the Big Y.)
"Old mice like fresh lard."
"Marriage is the worst pun
ishment." (For what?)
"It Is better to be the ham
mer than the nail."
"Physicians don't grow
rich from the people's health."
Who trusts a woman might
as well trust the weather." -
"Dogs bark, but people
don't listen." (Anyone for an
ordinance?)
"No chicken will slip out
of a boiled egg."
If you don't close the door
in the evening, you can't open
it in the morning.
But the most pertinent of
the little Kremlin Kom
ments is probably the last
one in the book. Consider
ing the U2 "incident" end
the summit talks which
never left the valley, it ap
pears Mr. Khrushchev eith
er hasn't read It or just
places no stock in it. It goes
like this:
"Preise loudly and blame
softly."
