NEALON Mail Tribune Table Rock Correspondent ' Mrs. Herschel Harper was here Monday and asked ua to lack up a poster with the following message on it.: "Get the facts, Smoking & Cancer, Sat., Sept. 29, 7 p.m. Care of Your Heart, Sun. Sopt. 30, 7 p.m., Medford Armory, No Admission charge." This is a lec ture with statistics and pictures showing the damage done to heart and lungs by tobacco smoke. A few minutes after Mrs. Harper left, we picked up the M.T. and on the front page read these headlines. "Motel Explosion Burns Portland Man and Wife." The couple was sleeping in a motel and had left the gas burners on. The man getting up about 6 a.m. started tn light a cigarette. The spark ignited the gas fumes which exploded, wrecking the interior and starting a fire,' both occupants were taken to a hospital in serious condition suffering with first degree burns. The next morning a radio newscast told that a San Francisco man was in critical condition caused by an explosion in his apartment when he lit a cigarette. While we are on cigarettes, we might mention that Mr. Clifford and wife and son Clinton were brief visitors here recently. Clifford recently got into a has-., sle with John Linn over smoking in restaurants, said he was not going to patronize a certain restaurant if they didn't put a stop to smoking at the tables. He was told that they couldn't let the minority tell the majority , what to do. We agree with Clifford, It Is the minority that pollute the air, and not the majority. Count them and see. If cigarette smoking continues to increase, we wonder if sometime in the future we won't be having "cigarettic" anonymous clubs. Narrow Escape Frank Glen, a former Table Rock resident, was a brief visitor here Sunday. He told us that his son, Dennis, of the U.S. Air Force barely missed being on the tanker cargo airplane that recently crashed, kill ing all on board after a take-off from a station in South Dakota. Young Glen had a scat on the plane, but had to give it up to another officer that outranked him. Visitors here from the State of Kansas are Bill Bishop and son Mark, who are visiting relatives and friends here, and in the valley. They expect to go on a deer hunt In eastern Oregon before returning to their home in Kansas. Other visitors from Kansas are Mr. and Mrs. Marion Rea on their return from the fair at Seattle. They are visiting with Mr. Rca's aunt at the Ed Taylor home. Oscar Hedge of Seattle, is a visitor here with relatives and friends. Wednesday evening, pear picking at the Hull or chards was brought to a close. Modoc will be picking for some lime yet, owing to the later maturing varieties prawn there. On a recent radio program we listened tn a coun selor talking and answering questions about matri monial troubles. He was asked if fights in the home were not the cause of most separations. He replied: "Not necessarily, in fact a well-managed fight will ' strengthen the marriage ties." After reading the list of divorces in the court proceedings we wonder if these folks have neglected having fights or are not managing them right. We look at the long list of traffic viola tions and wonder why there can continue to be so many, then when we travel on the highwny, and see so many drivers cutting corners, dodging In and out, speeding around curves, all driving like they were going to a fire, we, wonder why there aren't more. Charmed By Ortgon During this past spring and summer we have had visitors from many states, as far south as Georgia and as far east as New York, and of course many from California. All we have talked to are charmed with our state. Two men drove Into the yard recently, and an nounced they were from California. We said, "Happy to meet you, welcome to God's country." They re plied: "Brother, you have said a mouthful. Your blue sky (there wasn't any smoke that day), your scenery, crystal clear rivers and fertile soil make it seem like the garden of Eden. We love It. Would you sell us your farm or at least half of it?" These people have all been nice, pleasant people to talk to. As space is run ning out, we can only mention a few: One, Boh Cook, of an old pioneer family at Gold Hill, who is older than t, is a great help In writing old time happenings. Thought for the day Pretty is, as pretly does. Gold Hill Mayor Announces He'll Seek Re-Election Gold Hill Mayor Milton Steinmetz of Gold Hill has announced he will seek reelec tion. With the mayor's announce ment of his candidacy, there now are candidates in the run ning for all seven of the city posts coming up for election in Gold Hill this year.
