Dr. Alan S. Markee (at left) is the retiring secretary of the MANOR-ISMS . By ETHELYN EVANS Our Rogue Valley Manor celebrated the second anni versary of its opening date with all the appurtenances of a big wedding anniversary. Our dining room hostesses were dressed in lovely white brocade, golden slippers and wore white corsages. Our ad ministrator, Walter Higgins, with a huge, white carnation in his lapel was ready to make like the best man. That, of course, has been his role through the more than seven years of thinking, breathing and living "Manor." M. N. Hogan, in the stellar role of president of the board (or bridegroom, from that wedding anniversary angle) nd board members, George Flanagan, Sidney Ainsworth, Walter Garner, the Rev. George Roseberry and Dr. Elmo Stevenson, joined the festivities. Judging from their beaming faces, all these men were proud of and happy with the results of years of dedicated work. All the tables were decor ated with colorful paper "2s"; and at a central, candlc-lit ta ble sat Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Taylor, Mrs. Alice Peil, Miss Mabel Hodson and Arthur Wright, members who en tered the Manor on the open ing day - January 30, 1061. Our waitresses provided a jocular note to the party by wearing extremely high, shiny, black paper hats. In cidentally, a roast prime-rib dinner was "enjoyed by all," as they sometimes say in so cial notes. Reports of southland frigid temperature notwithstanding, many of our members have gone that-a-way, with Tucson, Ariz., the objective. My hus band and I have recently re turned from Tucson. We found it another city with an exploding population. A large part of this Increase has been achieved by moving the city boundaries out in all direc tions and annexing sub-divisions and even small commu nities. As a result, they have been unable to catch up with themselves in paving and street signing. Sabrino Canyon, a delight fully scenic recreation area IT'S t s"7 ' wm f'-&Ttt SfT' i M ii MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. H4U practically within the city limits, we enjoyed and visited several times on picnics. This is a very narrow canyon be tween towering hills of varied colored rock or thick stands of cacti, with actually thou sands of boulders forming the canyon floor. There was a lovely, quiet little stream tip-toeing along among the rocks, but we were told that often, and with in sufficient warning, it becomes raging torrent, throwing huge boulders in all direc tions. This can happen during the flash-flood season. Conse quently, the United States Forest Service has construct ed bridges and roadbeds of solid rock. Also, Tucson is most fortun ate to have the locally famous Mt. Lemmon for a year-round playground. Less than two hours' driving time over a wonderfully scenic mountain road, which required 15 years to construct, takes one into this wonderland. In summer both residents and tourists en joy it to escape the heat -many have summer homes in the timber and along the highway - and in winter it is a favorite spot for winter sports, good ski runs, etc. Along the winding road the distant views of exceedingly deep canyons, mountains and weird formations of rocks are well worth seeing. The Manor devotees of fresh air and exercise refuse to be daunted by this nippy, snappy weather. Even the very early (before breakfast -yet) walks continue. They find It necessary, of course, to bundle up in heavy top coats, scarves, gloves and even - so help me-a number of our women members go swinging alone dangling that ubiquitous handbag or purse. Anyway, it is such a good and healthful habit that all should follow along. Manor members of the Medford Knife and Fork club: -Mines. C. C. Collins, Reasc Bralcy, W. W. Howard, D. F.
