Siskiyou Shrine
President Reports
On Conference
Siskiyou County-Ben Bisag
no, president of the Siskiyou
County Shrine club, recently
returned from a meeting in
Sacramento called by Charles
E. Dcsenfants, Potentate of
the Ben Ali Temple.
Officers of Shrine clubs in
21 California counties attend
ed a series of briefing lec
tures, at which procedures re
garding the operation of the
clubs was discussed.
Desenfants, under whose
supervision the classes were
conducted, was recently elect
ed and installed as Potentate
of Ben All. The Shrine
Temple covers 23 counties and
represents a membership of
more than 0,000.
The proposed new Shrine
program for children's burn
hospitals was discussed. Bl
sagno was informed that some
medical authorities call burns
the largest single hazard of
childhood. He was advised
that an expenditure of up to
$10 million has been approved
by the Imperial Council for
the construction of three hos
pitals to treat burns.
The new Shrine hospitals,
according to Ben Bisagno, will
be equipped and staffed to
save children's lives and pre
vent deformities, disabilities
and disfigurements that often
result from severe burns.
They would offer the highest
type of preventative ortho
pedics. Bisagno declared that the
new institution would not con
flict with the present Shriners
hospitals for crippled children
which have been established
since 1922 and have treated
12S.000 children at an ex
penditure of more than $73
million.
Regional Roundup
by Clave Twikhtll
Mail Tribune Regional Editor
Abominal snowman type creatures are still being
spotted In California these days. We heard about the
latest one In a rather roundabout manner. We received
a clipping from a newspaper in New Jersey, which pub
lished a story datelined Sonora, Calif. Sonora is in cen
tral eastern California, only about 400 miles from Med
ford, but the story came to us via New Jersey.
Part of the story reads like this: "Reports of a scream
ing, 10-foot monster sent a sheriff's posse into the moun
tains yesterday looking for a burglar and a bear. The
monster reports started Sunday when a man phoned the
sheriffs office saying he'd seen the most horrible thing,
a human-like creature standing 9 to 10 feet. Then fol
lowed reports of weird screaming. Three sheriff's offi
cers heard the screeching yesterday when they went
into the area 35 miles east of Sonora between Long Bara
and Pine Crest."
The story goes on to say that one of the officers
found a 14-inch footprint In light snow, but it was the
print of a man's boot. A very unsporting undersheriff
was quoted to the effect that he thought the 10-foot
monster was probably a bear standing up and that the
screaming was nothing more than a mountain lion
screech. That's like those unsporting persons who claim
that reported spaceship landings were misinterpreta
tions of flocks of geese or 200-watt lightbulbs on the
side of a nearby barn.
All of this reminds us Ilia t one of these days we want
to get over to visit an acquaintance of ours in Talent
who has some movie film he shot of a large footprint
down in the Happy Camp area. Happy Camp is a nice
trot from Sonora, but maybe there's a whole family of
these fellows running around.
Those California License Plates
If all the new California license plates on cars in the
Yreka area seem to look pretty much the same to you,
don't worry about it. They are.
California issued brand new plates for all cars this
year for the first time since the mid-fifties. Unlike Ore
gon's system of auto registration expiring in the same
month as it was purchased the year before, registrations
of all California vehicles expire on the same date. And
so when the new plates were issued this year, the Yreka
office of the motor vehicles department apparently re
ceived a batch all starting with "AV." If you drive
around the streets of town you'll see virtually nothing
but AVE, AVF, AVG, AVH, AVJ AVK and AVL.

ELECTRIC
APPLIANCES
Here's what Mrs. Dean Mason of Klamath Falls says about electric living ...
"Electricity helped us build our home, and now
it helps us live a wonderful, comfortable life"
"Electric power tools made building our new home
easier and helped us do the job the way we wanted.
Naturally, we included all the latest electric conveni
ences from a dishwasher to outdoor lighting. All-electric
living is really a blessing when you have a growing
family. I count on electric helpers for cooking, washing,
water heating and nearly every household job there is.
It's the hardest-working service I know of and is cer
tainly our biggest value."
Thousands of other Pacific Tower & Light customers,
like Mrs. Mason and her family, live better because
they make generous and effective use of modern
electric sen ice.
The Mason family certainly
keeps me running full time!
