Tablets By R. E. NEALON Mail Tribune Table Rock Correspondent The recent passing of the Rev. D. D. Randall, in Medford, came as a severe shock to his many friends here. During his past 39 years as a Sunday school mis sionary, in an area extending from Roseburg to Green Springs, he organized and kept in touch with some 80 Sunday schools. A Christian man, who believed in good morals, had no use for liquor or tobacco, and thought we had too many taverns. In a speech at the local Sun day school he said he thought that television could be a wonderful medium for teaching children, as they re member better what they see. But he also said he thought most of the programs they see currently could start them on the road to hell about as quick as anything you could devise. We asked him if we could quote his talk in the Tablets, lie said, "Yes, I wish you would:" He was fearless and outspoken about things he be lieved to be wrong but always maintaining a cheerful, happy disposition. He leaves some big shoes for some one to fill, which will not be any easy task. Dams and Fish We learn that one of the reasons why the proposi tion to create a PUD in Josephine county came up was that people were told a dam in the river would destroy all the fish below it. We heard this same talk when the Bonneville dam was being considered and later approved. It was claimed that all the salmon would be destroyed, that the Indians who got their meat from salmon they caught and smoked would starve. Since the completion of the dam, we have stood by the side of the elevators and watched the salmon ride majestically up the ele vators made for this purpose, and at the top swim out into the river. Now we will mention a private dam on Rogue river which I helped build, known as the Gold Ray dam. After the dam was completed no fish ladder of any kind put in. Later at spawning lime, salmon trying to reach the spawning grounds were halted here where they accumu lated by the thousands. Now and then a husky salmon would try to leap over the dam, but would be thrown back by the swift falling water. Complaints began to pour in, and pressure from Salem caused the company to put in a make-shift ladder. Some years later an ade quate ladder was put in. At one time, salmon were so thick below the dam that some said "One could walk across the river on the backs of salmon." Thousands of salmon were destroyed between the dam's completion and the putting in of fish ladders. The point we wish to make, is that when Uncle Sam puts in a dam, fish will be taken care of, and the dam will stay put for all time. So Ike thinks Nixon is too energetic to be laid on the shelf and will be heard from politically in the future. During Ike's campaigning for Nixon we heard a Central Point Democrat say he was glad Ike was working for Nixon because the voters generally defeated anyone he worked for. Table Rock Ladies Meet The Table Rock Ladies club held their November meeting Wednesday at the home of Mrs. Vernon Geb hard. About the usual number of members were in at tendance. Entertainment consisted of playing games. As previously mentioned in the Tablets the Table Rock Store will be closed Wednesday of each week until further notice. Some missed seeing the notice, or else forg' and went to the store Wednesday. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Lewis of Moses Lake. Wash, were weeK end visitors witn Tom's parents at the Bob Lewis ranch.
