Perfect Attendance Record Set At Sams Valley School Oct. 2 Sams Valley -A perfect attendance record for all grades, one through eight; a t Sams Valley Elementary school was reported for Oct. 2. Grades one and four had a perfect attendance record for one entire week, which is con sidered an excellent record, according to school officials.

We noted with interest another advertisement for the Lake Valley "public sale" in a recent Sunday Mail Tribune. Before we moved to Oregon from southern Cali fornia last year, our interest was attracted by an ad in the Los Angeles Examiner offering "Western Ranch land." Just to see what It was all about, we answered the ad and soon received material concerning 20-acre parcels for sale just east of Malheur lake. We also read with interest details about the Christmas valley project in eastern Oregon, including the California "desist" order of earlier this month. While in southern California on vacation last August we were informed by friends that the Christmas valley organization even main tained an office in the San Gabriel valley area down there just east of Los Angeles. We made an effort to drive past the office but were unable to find it. We know from our experiences living in crowded metropolitan areas that there are large numbers of people in those areas willing and eager to pay good money for the privilege of owning a parcel of land off in the wilderness or the desert. Interesting, isn't it, that one can buy land right here in the Rogue valley for quite a bit less than what the eastern Oregon promoters are asking. The News Continues We're still receiving reports from correspondents of the damage sustained In various areas from last Friday's storm. Orlo Davis, husband of our Montague, Calif., corresopndent, was out checking on cattle when the storm hit. He rendered aid to Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Scholt of Tule Lake, who narrowly escaped when a large pine tree fell on their car, barely missing the cabin in which they were sleeping. Davis then returned home to find neighbors working at removing a large locust tree that had fallen on his own house with considerable damage to the roof and front of the house. Genevieve Briggs, Wilderville correspondent, report ed numerous Incidents. The Edwin Robinsons of that area, for instance, were reported milking 25 to 30 cows by hand no powor. The local school bus driver had to cut trees out of roads, and some children didn't get home until 8 p.m. Mrs. Briggs herself had to drive from Grants Pass to her home south of Wonder at the height of the storm, watching trees blowing down and traffic signals with their eyes turned to the sky. "The rattle of pebbles blown across the windshield and the weaving between fallen trees didn't add to my sense of security," she commented.

Plywood continued to be the key to employment ex pensions during the month, with former Grants Pass Ply wood workers being called that Blue Rock, Rustler Peak and Fireline roads are closed a result of last week's storm. Work crews have cleared other areas and have roads open. The storm blew down an- proximately one million feet of timber in the Parker Mea dows and Blue Rock region. Forest Service crews are at tempting to clear roads as soon as possible for hunters' use. They, would appreciate hunters not cutting timber unless familiar with log lengths, thus avoiding loss of value of products. Many board feet are lost every year due to inexperienced cutters. As soon as the storm sub sides a helicopter will be brought in to estimate extent of damage. With time permit ting emergency sales will be put up to salvage losses. Work crews lost several days time because of high winds. Telephone communications were wiped out to look-outs and guard stations. Work will be scheduled next spring to completely rebuild the com munication system. A tentative report on re creation areas and facilities shows little damage as of this date. 300 Attend Dinner In Morse's Honor Grants Pass - The dinner given in honor of Sen.

A provision to allow the immediate disconnecting 0 f all water if the bill is 60 days delinquent with a connect charge added before it can again be turned on was also made at the Oct. 2 city coun cil meeting.
