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.

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.

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.
