Tablets
By R. E. 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.

Eagle Point Council
Told of Irrigation
Flooding Problem
By DOTTIE HARBISON
Eagle Point - Representa
tives from Fryer Irrigation
district met with Eagle Point
Councilmcn this week, asking
their aid in fixing the ditch
which was damaged with tht
installation of the city sewer
lines.
According to members of
the irrigation board, they are
ieceiving complaints from
people along the front section
of the irrigation line who are
being flooded out with from
one to two feet of water stand
ing in their yards and base
ments due to seepage water
from the ditch.
Part of the ditch was dis
turbed to allow the installa
tion of the sewer line and re
filled to a 12 feet depth with
shale which allows the water
to seep underground.
Also noted were the com
plaints of people on the far
end of the line who were not
receiving their water for the
same reason. High spots left in
the ditch were also sighted as
part of the trouble.
Members of the board said
they were having trouble
with the tampering of the
main gate by other than au
thorized persons who left too
large a head of water through
which also flooded out some
of the residents. This has been
remedied by a steel gate that
can be locked in place, they
told the council.
