Question: What'a a well dressed, good-looking girl? Answer: A classy lassy. Those were pretty easy but at leasl they'll serve as an Introduction to what this la all about - a game called Ink Pink. Maybe you've played it and maybe you haven't. If you're In the latter category, you're really missing some thing. Which might be a good Idea. But back to lh gam. I first bcim acquaint ed with It few week ends go while my Fronch teach er and I war driving back from Portland. "Evor play Ink-Pink?" lays Teachor. "No," saya I, thinking re grotfully that I waa not so cially up with th llmei. "What is li?" Mistake No. On. Toacher roplled with longthy xplanation of th gam, which boils down to this: On parson dreams up 1 noun and in adjectir that modifies it. They hav to rhym and each must hav lh sam numbr of ayllablas. If th words ar of on syllable, it's called in ink-pink. Two syllables, nd it's in inky pinky. Three, and it's in Inkely pinkoty. And so on md on up to th inkely plnkely-ping-ping-pang-poppety - powies. But that's profassional ter ritory so w won't worry bout it. The game primarily is a time-killer. It might even be game-killer. But if you go about it with an open mind (prefer ably one with nothing import ant, or maybe nothing at all on it), it can be a genuine in tellectual stimulant. Some of them can make you think And think and think and think. For instnncc: Question: What's a tech nician on an ill-fated ship? Answer: A Titanic median ic. Question: What's a contain er that's incapable of repro ducing? Answer: A sterile barrel. Question: What's a heavy- set fish? Answer: A rounder flound er. If you treat it is Just a game, you're safe. It's whan you begin thinking in trrns of ink-pinks that you've reachad a dangorous point. No happy, well-adjusted, mature adult will have to worry about that, though. Twas a bright night as lh June moon peeped through the high sky and I sat under a flea tree. A dark lark sang the wrong song, a bobbin' robin chirp ed a goon tune end a third bird sing worse verse as the cool mule sipped hotter water and the house mouse jumped over the flap trap to find a hick chick. See what I mean? Noth ing to worry about. Ink-pinks, along with a few oilier things, have made me fall behind on the French lessons, however, and I feel guilty. So to return to Teach er's good graces, scholnstical- iv at least, let's try one in French. Question: What's an inky- pinky used by soil when greet ing fertilizer? Answer: Bonjour, manure. Mail Tribune Correspondent Yreka - One of the out standing authori ties on chronic In the United States Is Mrs. Dorothea Moroncy of Yreka. She Inherited the Ma- guffcy Creek chrome mlns out of Scott Bar, from her father In 1033. Only the main line of chrome had been de veloped. After successful mining op erations in Alaska, Mrs. Moroncy came back in 1937 and organized the Maguffcy Creek chrome mine. Maps were brought up to date, lo cating minerals and districts. Specimens of ore were sent to the California state engi neer to be checked. The walls of the office are now lined with shelves of ore, each specimen of the black mineral numbered in white, 2 Timber Salvage Sales Announced In Illinois Valley Illinois Valley Sale of two timber salvage units in the Illinois Valley Ranger district has been announced by H. C Obye, supervisor of the Siski you national forest. Sold were the Windy creek and Lower Roadside salvage sales, both of which contain timber threatened with des truction by beetles or dwarf mistletoe. Sales were part of a continuing program to make use of damaged timber and to improve the quality of the remaining forest lands. The 136-acre Windy creek sale was purchased by South ern Oregon Plywood, Inc., Grants Pass, high bidder at an oral auction. Other bidders were Rough and Ready Lum ber Co., Cave Junction, and Cabax Mills, Grants Pass. Estimated volumes, apprais ed prices and bid prices were Douglas fir, 6.7 million board feet, appraised $28.90, bid $28.00; Port Orford cedar. 100,000 board feet, appraised $36.60. bid $36.65; white fir and other species, 1.2 million board feet, appraised $9.09, bid $9.08 . Total appraised value was $208,150 and total bid was $208,155. The 30-acre Lower Road side sale was purchased by Rough and Ready Lumber Co. Other bidders were Cabax Mills and L. E. Smith of Cave Junction. Estimated volumes, apprais ed prices and bid prices were Douglas fir and other species, 330,000 board feet, appraised $34.45, bid $44. Total ap praised value was $11,368.50 and bid price was $14,520. of location. The state keeps half of each and every rock for its records. While the work of expand ing and building wag taking place, they also were block ing the ore. Chrome runs deep and the vein runs in a straight line, as if drawn by a ruler, according to Mrs. Moroncy, Road Closed The mine was in full swing, employing engineers, miners, laborers and truck drivers. In Yreka the office was a mad house of activity, when the blow fell. The trucks were using a county road in and out of the mines, the county and com pany both operating In good faith. After 14 years of use by Siskiyou county, tile wom an who granted the easement through her property sudden ly discovered a flaw in the grant and permission to use the road was withheld. Then followed months and years of legal battling to regain use of the road. Officials had all night ses sions trying to figure ways or means to win the battle. Every time they thought up a new solution, the opposition had it blocked. The office wires had been tapped and It was the "wild and woolly West" again. San Francisco papers carried headlines of "Riots in Yreka." There was delay after de lay in reopening the road and, on the day it was finally open, the government in Washington announced it had stopped buying chrome in the United States. This country is now trading its farm sur plus to Russia for chrome. The Maguffey mines, Mrs. Moroney says, could furnish 10 per cent of the chrome that would be needed by the U.o. in case of emergency, nut sne wonders where en gineers, miners and all the other necessary help could be lound at a moment s notice. Now she dusts the rocks on the shelves while her mines lay idle. And she feels the Russians have out-smarted the U.S. once again. By KATHERINE SCOTT Mail Tribune Correspondent Illinois Valley To.

The place was originally purchased from the U.S. gov ernment in 1867 by one Charles Hartson and had about eight different owners before William Woodbury bought it from one L. O. Dur kce in 1910. The Woodburys came to the Illinois Valley xrom Klamath county In May of 1910. The parents and their nine chil dren, eight boys and one girl, made the trip by wagon and team. Bert was the eldest of the children, One of the first improve ments made on the property was planting of an orchid which still bears fruit today Water to irrigate the trees had to be carried from a spring in five-gallon buckets some 500 feet uphill to the orchard.
