MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEOFORD, OREGON FRIDAY. JANUARY 18. 1963 Tablets By R. E. NEALON Mail Tribune Table Rock Co-respondent Pear orchardists here and in Washington received aid from the Oregon State Grange as a result of a letter written by Allen P. Wheeler, State Master, to S. Kent Curistensen announces that excellent cooperation on the the National Association of Food chains. A telegram from Crhistensen announces that excellent cooperation on the request for additional promotional effort is promised. The cold, frosty nights, with the frozen ground, are working a hardship on the song birds, especially the meadow larks, Oregon's State bird. California, Washington Taxes Higher The following from a Califomian, seems to let the cat out of the bag as to taxes: "You lucky people who : live in Oregon, you are fortunate you don't live in Washington or California, where they really have high taxes. In L. A. city, and county, and in San Francisco you pay 6 per cent to 8 per cent on everything you buy, food, clothing and shelter. Don't let anyone tell you its . only 4 per cent. You pay a penny on every 15 cents, and 2 cents on every quarter, figure it out." Also they have a high' property and income tax. An organization that makes a study of taxes says Washington state collects more per capita tax than any state in the Union, with California not far behind. Oregon collects about half as much. We were born in California, but think we will stay in Oregon. Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Duggan of Sams Valley were among the grangers who left Wednesday on the Pan- . Am Jet for Hawaii for a week's vacation and sight seeing in Aloha Land. Miss Barbara Wheeler, journalism student at Crater high, tells us she checked our last week's Tablets and found some mistakes, so we will have to be careful in the future. The story about the young man about to marry his sister brings to mind a similar case here in Jackson .County. When the young man was told the facts as to why he couldn't marry his sweetheart, he left the coun try and never returned until the death of his father many years later. The Smiling Dummy We wonder sometimes if our eyes are playing tricks , on us. One day during the Christmas rush in Medford we were passing the J. C. Penney store and noticed several nice-looking dummies (we mean the stationary ones) wearing ladies' clothes. As we passed one, we were positive it smiled at us. We went on, but looked back ' and saw two fellows come along and stop. When they saw Ibis smiling dummy, one tipped his hat, saying, "We have seen an elephant do the twist in the Shriners' circus, and a smiling dummy in J. C. Penney's store." Thought For the Day: They govern best who appear . not to govern at all. Regional Calendar Sams Valley - Saturday Sams Valley Grange will meet.
