NEALON Mail Tribune Table Rock Correspondent- Table Rock A wedding held Saturday, July 7, at the Central Church of Christ In Medford Joined in holy matrimony Miss Margaret Pendleton, and Byron Rom inger. The ceremony was performed by John Bigham, now taking John Heberling'i place while he is on vaca tion. Byron is a local boy now in the U. S. Armed Services stationed at San Francisco. Miss Pendleton, is a Central Point girl whose father, Vern Pendleton, was the former owner of the J. S. Richardson farm here. Mr. Omar Robinson and two daughters, of Rio Linda, Calif, were recent overnight guests with relatives al the E, E. Robinson home. They were on their way to Seattle to attend the World's Fair. Miss Glenna May Brown and Patsy Striplin are now In Portland looking for employment. Flias on the Tractor Many farmers remember when we used horses about this time of the year. The horse flies about eleven o'clock would begin pestering the horses and the driver would try to get them by flipping the lines, but seldom hitting them. Some of the pests or some of the younger generation must know about old times for during the last few days they have been trying to penetrate the hide of our tractor. The news item in a recent issue of the M. T. relative to repair work on County roads to be charged to abutting property aroused quite a little Interest here among land owners. Les Bigham, a member of the county road crew, told us that when grading work was to be done along the road sides they had to first send a crew to pick up broken bottles and glass to protect the rubber tires of the road building implements. This, we presume would be repair work, but since it is a law violation to throw such things in the road right-a-way , we'll be hanged If we pay for this work along our holdings. We must ge getting quite city-fied. We wonder when they will start putting up parking meters. Hoovtrs Coma to Call Charley Hoover and wife, were brief visitors here Sunday, They were over this way to get some organic raspberries from the Rowell organic gardens. Charley goes along with us in believing we can come as near proving that Grant passed through here, as the opposition can that he didn't. During our whirlwind conversation we learned that Charley was born in Grants Pass. It must have been after Grant was there, otherwise the place would have been named HooversBurg, or some thing like that. Charley loves the grand old State of Oregon, and does resent hearing it called the fool of the flock, as some do, when Oregonians refuse to vote for a sales tax or the daylight saving time. We have been from Canada to Mexico, and never found any place we liked as well. We recently received word from a lady telling us how she enjoys reading the Tablets, but wishes we wouldn't be so hard on the Republicans. We didn't know we were tough on Republicans. She must have been reading between the lines. Kenneth Hensley, a former resident, but now living In San Francisco, was a recent brief caller here at the Frank Myers home. Thought for the day Angry words are like arrows; once when let loose they' cause trouble. Josephine Co.
