ifi-JL FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1963 MEDfOnD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON Tablets y R. E. NEALON Mail Tribuna Tabla Reck Correspondent The Table Rock ladies club will meet Wednesday, April 17, at the home of Mrs. Aubrey Taylor, with Mrs. E. W. Robiruon assisting. Each one is asked to bring a "white elephant." Mrs. Vernon Gebhard and Mrs. Robert Dunn will work lor the cancer drive in the Table Rock and Sams Valley districts April ISth and 16th. Mrs. Gebhard states that the cancer fund is not a part of the United fund. Several from here attended the funeral of Margaret Wolgamott in Mcdford Tuesday. Mrs. Wolgamott was a sister of John Dickey of the Modoc orchard. Mrs. Manley Jacobson and family from California points, are visitors at the home of Mrs. Anna Jacobson on Pumice lane. Other Table Rock visitors arc: Mrs. Ernest Mulligan and four children from San Jose, Calif., and Mrs. Ronald Perry and two children Plcasanton, Calif., who are visit ing the Thomases at the Tabic Rock Store; and Mr. and Mrs. Homer Edgecomb, Redding, Calif., who were Sun day guests of R. E. Nealon, Mr. and Mrs. Milton Houston of Applegate, and Mrs. Josephine Cornutt, Old Stage rd. Wa Stand Corrected on Luy Story Chris Kenney, an old time resident of Jacksonville, called up on the phone to tell us that we were mistaken when we wrote In Tablets that Paul Luy's mother was a member of the Bybee family. In the biographical record of western Oregon people, Mrs. Minnie Bybee married Fred Low; so I guess Kenney is right. Here we go back to our unfinished sense of humor story In last Friday's Tablets. We were told by our doc tor that a growth on our head should be removed as it might develop into something serious. We met the doctor at Sacred Heart hospital. With our forehead on the table while doctor was prodding around on our head, we remarked that a lot of improving had been done since the last time we were in the hospital. He replied, yes, some $200,000 worth. Then we asked if they had paid for it. He said, no, of course not. Then we said we hoped they didn't expect us to finish paying for it. During this conversation a lady walked in wear ing a white frilly head-piece that seemed to frame the most beautiful face wc have ever seen. Her white velvet-like skin had not been touched with any makeup. Her eyes, Jn their natural state, glistened like dia monds; but the loving, kindly expression on her face made you think you were looking at the face of an angel; but we could sec that we had hurt her feelings. Our doctor, who had gotten us out of many tight places, came to our rescue and said, "He doesn't mean a thing. It's Just his way of Joking." When the Dr. had finished, we found that our in surance didn't pay for anything less than a day in the hospital, so the doctor asked me how I felt, and I said wooscy, which was' true. Although the scalp he took off was only, the size of a thumb nail, it felt as if we were being scalped. Lai's Pitch In And Halp Since the hospital was built back in 1 910 hundreds of people have entered and gone out its doors in better health and spirits. But time has taken its loll and a new and modern hospital staffed with modern equip ment Is needed. Hospitals as they come now cost a lot of money, and it behooves us of the Rogue valley to pitch In and see that these folk gel the needed funds to build and equip this needed building. It is altogether proper and fitting that we should do this for those who dedicated their lives to help and comfort others. Thought for the day I am almost convinced that the only good that exists is that personal quality which leaves every one happier who contacts is possessor. Arthur Brown.
