MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOHD. OREGON
Tablets
By R. E. NEALON
Mail Tribune Table Rock Correspondent
The members of the Taole Rock ladies club are re
hearsing a play "The Hiddci Letter," to be presented
Saturday, May 25, at 8 p.m. at the Table Rock school
house. The play was written by Mrs. O. T. Wilson, who
is well known around the Central Point area for her
clever composing. The play dates back to the turn of
the century, and describes the living conditions and dress
of a pioneer western family. This is the first time any
thing of this nature has been attempted for some time,
and the ladies have gone to quite a bit of work in prepa
ration, so we should show our appreciation by giving
our support and attending the program.
Last Sunday we attended the Sams Valley Grange
picnic at the Valley of the Rogue park. This, we believe,
is one of our most attractive parks and with some needed
work on facilities and lawns will be one of the popul
lar parks of the valley. The setting of beautiful shade
trees is framed on three sides by a chain of blue moun
tains. At the picnic we met the Master of the Oregon
State Grange, and other dignitaries, also several Grang
ers who in the past were residents of Jackson county
which made it seem like old times to us. Among these
were Mr. and Mr. Ted Sims, who were active here in
Grange work, but are now living in the Willamette val
ley, where they work with the Granges, Ted being a
state deputy.
The other day a lady called by phone, telling us that
her children had found a killdeer with a broken wing.
She wanted to know where she could get some one to
patch up the injured wing. We referred her to the bird
watcher of the Mail Tribune.
The master of the national Grange a few years ago
said the farmers were paid less for what they did than
any segment of the national economy. During rush sea
sons, like at present, many farmers work 16 hours or
more each day. Compared to this, we recently listened
to an employment agent naming jobs that could be had
in the Eugene area. The jobs started at $3.40 an hour.
He named- many jobs between that and the last one, at
$6.50.
This, we dedicate to the daylight time savers.
Before Daylight Saving Tima
They didn't teach kinematics
When I was a kid in school;
We never heard of a "moonsuit"
Nor learned any couni-down rule.
Since only celestial bodies
Were our neighbors in outer space,
We studied no sputtering Sputniks
Nor Circumlunar race.
We lived on our earthly bisophere
And wrested our food from the sod;
Our days were measured by daylight
But we left the time to God.
If we needed inertial guidance
We were not aware of the fact;
The earth was our biosatellite
With escape velocity packed.
We didn't have any dyna-soar
To crash through the stratosphere;
Nor testing flights in the dead of night
To disturb out rest while here
Ours was a celestial guidance
Minus cosmic rays and LOX;
But we could get up in the morning
Without tampering with our clocks.
From "Modern Maturity"

reaches for a chair when she answers the telephone.

Jacksonville Boosters Club
Organizes, Plans Next Meet
Jacksonville - The Jackson
ville Boosters club, which
held its organizational meet
ing last Friday night, will
meet again Monday evening.
All persons interested in the
future development ot Jack
sonville are urged to attend.
Members of the boosters
club have expressed a desire
to get more people out to the
next meeting than attended
the first, so that the organiz
ation may represent a wider
cross-section of the commun
ity. Robertson Collins served as
chairman at last Friday's or
ganizational meeting.
The group decided that its
principal aim would be to as
semble overall planning infor
mation in such areas as
schools, parks and recreation,
tourist promotion and eco
nomic development.
Disseminata Results
This data will be gathered
through research, interviews
and inventory, with persons
assigned to collect certain in
formation. The reports the
club comes up with will then
be discussed, correlated and
disseminated to the public.
Rudy Tctrcault suggested
that data be made available to
all citizens, the planning com
mission and the city council.
The Rev. Oliver Summers
spoke of three agencies that
could be called upon to aid m
gathering data. Collins listed
these agencies as the Bureau
of Municipal Research, the
League of Oregon Cities and
the University of Washington
town development program.
Collins also urged residents
lo read the book "Democracy
Is You," which is available
through the Jacksonville li
brary. Mayor E. O. Graham of
Jacksonville commented that
there was no limit to the
amount of work that could be
done. Many reports have been
filed by city groups already,
he noted, adding that he
thought the club would be a
good organization.
Graham went on lo predict
that there would be some
hardships, however. Financ
ing is difficult to obtain, he
said, and volunteer help has a
habit of petering out. The
mayor said he thought the
club could work together with
the city planning commission.
Mayor Graham made men-
tion of the fact that informa
tion could be obtained from
the Jacksonville city recorder.
Don Wendt, city council
man, said he felt present prob
lems should be taken care of
first. He brought up the ques
tion of how to carry the re
search project through, how
far to go at the present time,
what would be the end result
and how long would it take to
reach it.
One member present sug
gested that the club start with
just one area. Another sug
gested that a committee be ap
pointed for each category to
