W& DEALER Tablets By R. E. NEALON Table Hock Well, here we are writing the Tablets after telling you that Bessie would do it this week as far as we knew. But we didn't know far enough lo know that Bessie's tummy was going to act up. Dr. Inskeep said this is a com mon complaint during the month of August. The doctor was out Saturday evening to get a few cants, but wouldn't buy any sweet corn. Said he was watching his weight. With people putting corn on the re stricted list and so many wom en afraid to eat bread, its no wonder we have a surplus of corn and wheat. Wc feel like talking this up with Ezra and see if he can't do something about it. 4 Ray Wyaii, our country store operator, recently re ceived a citation from Tide water Oil Co. for 21 years of outstanding service as a dealer. Ray. with his eyes to the skies, saw the sate lite, Echo, pass over twice Saturday night. When he figured that it is some 25, 000 miles around the world, it seemed to him he was get ting nowhere, might even be backing up. Orvillc Hamilton, manager of the Modoc Orchards, a pa tient of the Rogue Valley hos pital, with two broken bones in the lower left leg caused by a fall while crossing a bridge over the irrigation canal near his home, is reported doing fine. We note lhat there have been more indecenl expos ure cases lately, in this area, according to the press than ever before. We wonder just how little, or how much clothes one can wear to qualify as a decent or in decent exposure. Bob Humphrey from the Beagle district was a business visitor here Thursday. He says the land business is flourish ing in liis neighborhood with building lots going like hot cakes. Roy Kyle, the Medford carpenter, was out this way Wednesday doing a ditch cleaning job. A gentleman whom we did not know, stopped at our house the other day and looked at the old pine tree. He said. "So you'll have to cut down the old pine tree." We W'omlc'rcd how he knew about the tree, since he was recently from California, until he said that he read about it in the Tablets. Janice Bunlcn from Car son City, Nev., has been vis iting at the Everett Brown home for the past week. She is the granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Lloly, who formerly lived on Pumice lane. Janice reports they are well and send best wishes to all their former neighbors. A group of local residents, including Mr. and Mrs. Ray GmrcHfiri Doran and granddaughter, Tamera, Fred Smith, Miss Patsy Striplin, Miss Grace Bigham, Leslie Bigham, Mr. and Mrs. Everett Brown and daughter, Glenna and their house guest, Janice Bunten, motored to Gold Beach. They took an excusion trip on the Rogue river to Agness and back via the U.S. mail boat. All reported a most enjoyable time. Jack Peek, local boy and member of the Central Point 4-H club, exhibited what proved to be a grand champion Hereford at the recent 4-H and FFA fair. Also, his sister, Jill, was fourth in her class for the heavyweight market steer. Glenna Brown had the champion exhibit in home living and several members of Mrs. Frank Myers' 4-H club living in other dis tricts were winners of rib bons. F. J. Clifford's communi cation in a recent issue of the MT about the Grange picnic caused us to remember a dis cussion about crack pot writ ers that took place at the Grange picnic. Clifford said that someone asked Bob Ruhl why he pub lished letters sent in by that crank Pat Clifford. Rulil told him that these letters carried more weight than ho knew of and were necessary to bal ance the paper, so we agreed that since they were necessary we would get on the band wagon and give them more rope. Since then, John Byrne, who was in the group, has come through with a nice poem, and Clifford has really done himself proud in putting on overalls, roll ing up his sleeves and go jng to the country. His description of 'he joys and pleasures of farm life and the stern realities of hav ing it meet increasing ex penses with decreasing re ceipts give a true picture of our situation. This para graph in his letter takes it out of any crack pot. With the steady lessen ing lake of their share of the consumers dollar, relief must be had somewhere if the farmer and stockman are lo remain solvent, for somehow, someway, taxes and insurance must be paid. We like this so well, we are going lo put it in our scrap book. An old newspaper, torn and yellow with age, found by the Pierces in the attic of their house, is an issue of the Med ford Daily Tribune of Friday, March 12, 1!)U0. The paper is in small pieces, but wc could make out that Carl Vonder Ilellen of Wellin, was a Med ford visitor and the fruit growers had decided to pool their 1900 crop and some store was advertising ladies long-sleeved lightweight cot ton vests for 25 cents each. Vests, we thought, were only for men. Llennis and Debbie Rich ardson are spending their vacation with Gramps and Grandma and Auniie Sis and Uncle Emmitt. Thought for the day: WATCH YOUR STEP. Happy Camp PTA Set Teachers' Tea Happy Camp The execu tive board of the Happy Camp PTA met Tuesday at 8 p.m. at the elementary school.

EP Can Raise Enough Money For Sewage Lagoon By DOTTIE HARBISON Mail Tribune Correspondent Eagle Point - Eagle Point has enough money to put in the sewage lagoon system if they want it, according to at torney Gregg Hornecker.
