The bridge has not been In use since a cement bridge was built a quarter mile up stream four years ago, but it is pre served for Its scenic value. The photo also was iden tified by Wesley Hartman of Jacksonville of the Hartman Bros, county bridge builders. The bridge construction was contracted In 1917 to the late Jason Hartman, father of Wes ley and Lyal Hartman. This was Wesley Hartman's first Job on his father's crew, he said. -' The river crossing was ad Joined on the south east side by the Adelbert (Deb) McKee ranch, and through commun ity association became known through the years as McKee bridge. In the early 1900's the Mc Kee place, now a part of the Dave Winning ham farm, served as a stage station and overnight stop for travelers to Blue Ledge mine and other places in Upper Applegate area. Daughters of Adelbert Mc Kee living in Jacksonville are Former Siskiyou County Assistant DA Opens Law Office in Yreka Yreka - Michael T. Hen nessey, Yreka attorney and former assistant district attor ney for Siskiyou county, Tues day will open his law offices at 304 Lane St., across from the north entrance to the county courthouse. Hennessey was a former member of the law firm of Burton and Hennessey of Yreka. He has conducted a general Regional Roundup by Cleve Twitched Mail Tribune Regional Editor We are getting a little tired of reading about people's vacations, trips to Europe, etc., so we will try not to hold forth at great length concerning the seven-day excursion (it seemed like a month) from which we have Jus! returned. It was a simple little trip, but a pleasant one, as it convinced us (as if we really needed any convincing) that we arc glad we no longer reside In the heavily populated areas of the neighboring stale to the south. We drove down highway 99 to visit old friends in the San Gabriel Valley area east of Los Angeles (really I beautiful place if only the smog didn't hide all the beauty 98 per cent of the time). We made it over the ridge route and down Foothill blvd. just 24 hours before those two giant brush fires broke out and temporarily Closed both roads. Coming back north on Highway 101 we were sur prised to see the strides that are being made in free way construction. From LA to SF, 101 is now almost as fast a road as 99, and a far more pleasant drive. In San Francisco we discovered (as many thousands of others have) that it is possible to gel chilled to the bone in Candlestick pnrk in August. A night baseball game in that park is really an experience. Fortunately, the radium heat was functioning, so our toes at least were warm. Tribute Through Poetry We have some poets among our correspondents. Mary Alice Brusha, who along with Onita Simmons, covers Central Point for us, submitted the following effort, with this explanation: "This poem is my only way of saying thanks to a grand girl, For years she has devoted countless hours to the Cub Scouts of St. Mary's, as well as to the other schools in this area. "Pat Ford is the mother of two children, both now attending St. Mary's school. Seeing the need for teachers she has found time from her house work to enter col lege this fall. 1 only wish I could be a student in her classroom after she completes her course at Southern Oregon college. She lives at 904 West 10th si. in Med ford with her husband (Eddie) and children " Here's the poem: I'd like to sit beside you, When you go back to school. And listen to the teachers, Tell you the golden rule. And my dear friend I wonder. If any other can; You have lived it all your life, Everyone Is your fellow man. I've seen you give to others. Your love and all your time. Never a word complaining, Nor the social ladder climb. In the Cub Scouts and the school room. You helped us night and day. Regardless of the time- we called: You turned no one away. Dear friend when you are a teacher, I wonder what you will teach. You've taught me the greatest thing of all That love Is always In reach. Regional News Dondcntt and Thair Telephone Humbert: Mrs. Verna Culy, Mrs. Albert Hackert, and Mrs. O. Z. Park er. Another daughter, Mrs. Henry Calloway, resides at Pendleton. Nephews living in Medford are Ernest and Floyd McKee, and nieces living here are Mrs. John Byrne and Mrs. Rolland Smith. The swimming hole, Forest Service park established in 1930's, grocery story operated by Mr. and Mrs. Willard Wil son, and gem shop owned by Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Payne, constitute the present com munity surrounding the bridge, in addition to homes and farms. According to Hartman five covered bridges remain in Jackson county, four of which arc in use, including one across Yankee creek and another across Antelope creek in the Eagle Point area. A third one crosses Louse creek, tributary of Little Butte creek, which serves one family. The other structure in use is the Minthorn bridge across Evans creek. By public demand another bridge across Evans creek at Wimer is being extensively repaired for its scenic and his toric value, but is not in use. All of these bridges have been built by the Hnrtmans.
