MLDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON THURSDAY, JANUARY 24. 1SE3 No Recommendation C ' LEGAL NOTICES 'George Washington Slept Here' Doesn't Indicate First Rate Stop By DICK WEST Washington -IUPD- Innkeep ers who put up signs boasting n a i "Lieorge Washington slept here" may be guilty of false ad- i Sver t i s t n g. Washing t o n may have spent the night there all right, but there's a good possi b 1 1 i t y that he failed to get any sleep If the bedbugs didn't keep Jim awake, then the chances are that his slumber was dis turbed by some other anti iomnolent activity, such as bis mattress catching on fire. 1 fax Exemption on Homesteads Sought j A resolution calling for passage of a homestead tax ex emption up to $7,500 true cash alue, without the stipulation Of disability certification, was passed recently by Veterans Of World War I at a meeting Of District 7 barracks. District 7 includes the bar racks of Medford, Ashland, Grants Pass. White City, Cave junction, Roseburg, Rogue Biver and Tri City. f Members present, number ing about 120, agreed they wanted the same provision en Joyed by veterans of the Span ish American and other earlier wars. i( Officers recently installed by the Medford Barracks for 1863 are commander, Freder ick D. Adams; senior vice com mander, Herman St. Clair; Junior vice commander, Thom as O. Foose; chaplain, Francis B. Otis; quartermaster, Albert F. Johnsen; judge advocate, Alvin C. Lucas; sergeant at rms, Frank Hoffman; and three year trustee, Thomas B. Lunch. Pat Graham has been retained as adjutant. i Beech wood decays rapidly when exposed to air but lasts well under water. It is used extensively for piling and in the construction of dams. The mere fact that Wash ington made an overnight stop at a certain tavern or Inn is simply no recommendation at all. The truth Is that he stopped at some pretty crum my joints. The problems that the father of our country had in finding a decent place to lay his head are related in Washington's own diaries, some excerpts from which have just been distributed by the National Geographic Society. Washington was the Dun can Hines of his day. When he traveled, he made notes on the accommodations that he found. Reading them has given me a new appreciation of Conrad Hilton. At one place, Washington wrote, the bed "as they called it" was nothing but a little straw "matted together with out sheets or any thing else but only one thread bear blanket with double its weight of vermin such as lice, fleas, etc." Anyone who has ever bed ded down on a "threat bear" blanket can tell you that it is even more uncomfortable than a polar bear blanket. During one "blowing and rainy night," Washington re ported, "our straw catch'd a fire while we were laying upon and was luckily pre serv'd by one of our mens awaking." Old George's syntax was not all that it might be, but I gather from this passage that he could have been smoking in bed. At another place the beds consisted of "a little hay straw fodder of bairskin which ever is to be had." He did not indicate, however, whether the bairskin was thread bear. . Everyone stretched out on the floor "like a parcel of dogs or cats," he said, and "happy he that gets the berth nearest the fire." The diary is replete with reference to the lack of sani tation, tidiness and charm in the roadside places where he stayed. He also observed that some of the prices were "ex travagantly dear." Washington may not have been much at spelling, but lie sure knew a flea bag or a tourist trap when he saw one.

E. 122nd Avenue Portland, Oregon SUMMONS IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE si ATE Or OREGON. FOR JAtKSON COUNTY DAVIS-MAR- COMING 'ERA OF THE FORLORN MAIDENS In 1B65, we'll enter the "Era of Marriage" in our land. This is the year the "war babies" finally will be coming Of age, marrying, setting up new homes, buying every thing and non-thing in sight. The boom to be kicked off by the marriage era is a fundamental force on which President Kennedy is counting to produce enough taxes to balance our massive federal budgets in 1966-67. But in 1965, we'll also be entering the "Era of the Forlorn Maidens" and of "The Great Manhunt." For this is the year when the total of girls reaching average marriage age will r. start to outnumber by hundreds of thousands the total of i boys at typical marrying age. And this aspect which Ken- is nedy hasn't noted but which some of his astute economic f advisers have could conceivably postpone or at least temper the boom. I i It's a fascinating angle of the approaching boom years Which you can have fun with or lake seriously. So here goes, v i Half of all the girls in our country who get married do so before they are 20 years old; the medium age at which girls marry is 19.9. The men American girls typically marry are two and one-half to three years older; the average is 22 to 23. . j This means that Hie girls born in the great baby boom 7 years of 1946-49 will be reaching the peak ago for marriage in 1965-68 and they normally would marry the boys born , $ in 1943-46 . ' But matching up the millions of boys and girls born in i these years reveals what a Washington officials calls "a lather peculiar imbalance between the sexes and raises I the provocative question, "Where are hundreds of thou- . j sands of these maidens going to find husbands?" Consider the warm statistics: 3 Girls reaching typical marriage ago in 1965 will oulnum- '., ber boys they would typically marry by 90.493. The com f' parison is: 1,597.452 girls born in 1946 against 1,506.959 ' boys born in 1943. That's not so bad, but look at the plight 1 of the maidens in 1966. ? , : t :.. io ;it t UiriS rescuing typical iiianwiic agi: in 7uu win ""i- j number boys they would typically marry by 364,763. The comparison is 1.800,064 girls born in 1947 against l,4JD,dui boys born in 1944. It's almost as bad in 1967, for girls reaching typical age In that year will outnumber boys they would typically marry by 316,629. The comparison is 1,721,216 girls born in 1948 against 1,404,587 boys in into. It'll begin to even out again in 1968 when girls reaching typical marriage age will outnumber boys they typically would marry bv "only" 41,957. The comparison is 1,733,177 girls born in 1949 against 1.691,220 boys born in 1946. Of course, one way out for the forlorn maidens would be through marriage to "older men" except that there were even fewer boy babies born in 1940 through 1942. Those were really low baby years. . The extent to which the marriage era Is being relied upon to send us Into a major boom must not be shrugged off. Tho estimate is marriages will climb 37 per cent by 1970 from around 1,575,000 in 1962 to 1,705,000 in 1965 to 2.155.000 by 1970. The estimate is new households will soom 51 per cent in this period from around 830,000 In 1962 to 913.000 In 1965 to 1.253,000 by 1970. u. i the heart of the prosperity predicilions, for young marrieds need eveylhing and will borrow to the limit to buy Here is the heart ot Kennedy s ganiDic mat suosiduu.. lax ' reductions in 1963-64 will keep the economy going ... t., .t,.i until mfi5 and then we'll have it made. urh.i .hnnoh. haDDens if the Great Manhunt falls? What happens ' I suspect, is that the forlorn maidens will simply change the habits of their males and they'll marry boys of their own age-though pernaps a year or so .. .. . or predicted. A searching look at those baby totals discloses that in every year except 1940, the number of boys born u. . j .i. r,,.mh.r nf oirls born in the same year. And with over 11 per cent of today's 14-year-old girls actually going steady, the teen-agers apparently already arc figuring it out-even without one warm statistic on their future for lorn plight to guide them.
