WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 21. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL, TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Rural Reflections By MAUDE ZIEGLER Applegate Valley-Did some one ask what there is to be thankful for this Thanksgiv ins? Basically, wed say clean pure air to breathe not yt corrupted by fallout. You have eyes to see the bright limpid sunshine warming your being this November. You have known some who see only with their fingertips and their mind. They may perceive more than you. You have cars to hear the softness of rain on the roof and the call of an owl pene trating the darkness. There are some who cannot hear of the beauty around them. You walk about with ease ' without thinking. There are those whose lives are im- Micminrf in a wheel fhair Or in a bed. You have a good pair ofj hands with which to carry out j vour every need. There are those who had to learn the mechanical way or put their lect to a second use. Your home is secure and warm - a family haven against the storms of life and the ele ments. Yesterday you saw one who had nowhere to go. Last winter you knew someone who stayed in bed some days because of the cold. Your pantry and the gro cer's shelves are full and colorful this Thanksgiving, and you have some money. You have seen neighbors with nothing to grace Iheir shelves nor the wherewithal to bring anything home. Your car is in good shape, or your purse will permit bus fare. You have seen some liv ing nearby with no way to go except to walk. Your dogs are fed and hap py, and you know the sun shine of their affection. You have seen I hose whose prec ious pels were taken away, leaving saddened hearts. You know a good friend who counls the minutes in the sunshine corner of her home each morning. She no tices that the sun rises one minute later these winter mornings. She is glad there are just 30 days until the sun rise starts coming earlier. There is so very much for which to say prayers of Thanksgiving this season. ? i .-,,.'' I . 3 i ' ' f t 4 I 1 A. ' . t " i " r " - i ' 1 ' " "X I v ' i ' ', ( A i i.

Praise For Architect According to Superinlend ent Carl lloberg of Mount Shasta the new classrooms just completed here represent "one of ihe best architect jobs in the county". The architect, Howard Perrin of Klamath Falls, designed the three class rooms so that walls between the three rooms could be fold ed back to form one large room. These same three class rooms open into an adjoining lecture room for group teaching.

Coming here from Sacra mento to help organize the association was F. McElwain Howard, executive secretary for Northern Section, Cali fornia Teachers Association (CTA I. Presiding at the meelint; Applegate Valley - The ne cessity (or calling attention of the general public to the need for conservation of wild flowers, shrubs, and trees was told by Neil Suttcll, Apple gate district forest ranger, when he spoke at a meeting of Applegate valley garden club at Upper Applegate Grange hall recently. Jacksonville, Medford, and Phoenix clubs were represent ed at the meeting. Mrs. O. V. Poe of Phoenix, district man ager of the federated clubs, also stressed the need ot preservation of wild flower areas. The speaker was intro duced by the local club presi dent, Mrs. Clifton Childers. Forest Service laws pro hibit picking or digging rare plants without a permit, and picking of flowers or foliage within 100 yards of any auto mobile road is prohibited, the ranger said. He pointed out that state police cooperate in correcting offenders. Suttell discouraged picking of any wild flowers because he said they are more beau tiful growing than withered in a vase. He also said the heels of women's shoes do more damage to plant areas than an elephant's foot. Transplanting Advistd However, in naming ways I in which individuals may help in conservation, he advised transplanting to plots around the home, and said his resi- j dence at Star Ranger station has such a plot. The station grounds also have an arbo- j return, he said. Individuals may collect seeds from the forested areas any time. He referred to the collec tion in Medford parks of trees from United States and other countries, which is the work of John Gribble. early day ranker at Star station. He mentioned arboret urns and wild flower collections in many city parks of the north west. Wild flower gardens on a commercial basis are anoth er means of preservation, the ranger said. The speaker named Silver Fork basin in the high Siski yous as a botonical area, and said it should be protected. The Forest Service will place signs in the area naming many of the flowers. Multiple use plans are un der way to make Miller lake in the Carbury area a wilder ness reservation of more than 700 acres where no road will penetrate closer than a quar ter mile from the area. Visiting schools and making children conscious of the wild flower program is one long range method of education be ing planned, Ihe ranger ex plained. Bruce Matheny and Boyd Gibson, principals at Applegate and Ruch, already have expressed willingness to have their schools become a part of the program. A book of about 70 wild flower specimen prepared by Applegate garden club mem bers under direction of Mrs. Marcel Lepiniec was on dis play at the meeting, and was said by Suttell to have made "a terrific impact" on visitors at Dutchman's peak lookout, where it was on exhibition last summer. The ranger said such books are an excellent way of publicizing conservation.
