SLOW DEATH - This tlr tree,
.located beside Highway 99 at
the base of Black Butte, Vt
miles north of Mt. Shasta, is
called "witch's broom." The
growth near the top of the
tree is sort of a vegetable
counterpart to cancer some
times called false mistletoe.
The tree is slowly dying from
the cancerous growth. The top
Is already dead, as are some
of the limbs. In time the
whole tree will die, observers
say.

The tragic death of Lawrence Hull Wednesday cast
a pall of gloom over our little community, where he was
born and grew up. Larry, as he was known to his
friends, attended the Table Rock school when a young
lad, later working with his father, where he learned the
orchard business. Taking over the Red Skin and Table
Rock Orchards after the death of his father, the late
Elmer Hull, Larry not only proved himself a capable
orchard man, but a considerate, and kindly person with
his workmen. He was loyal to his community, which he
loved so much he disliked having anything published
that might reflect unfavorably on the welfare and in
tegrity of the area. A good neighbor. He was always
willing to cooperate in any move that would be a help
to his adjoining neighbors. We Join with many others
in extending our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved
family.
, This accident, which is the second involving a log
ging truck in the same place in a year's time, has caused
much talk and expressing of opinions. Some say
this curve needs to be worked over, as it is unsafe in
Its present condition. Others believe we should have
speed limits and that trucks and cars drive too fast
over the straightaway approaching this curve. Some
time ago our local ladles got out petitions asking that
speed limits be established here and the proper signs
be posted. We understand that a man was sent out here
to check speeds. Also we are told that the man sat in
his car at one side of the road, but in plain sight of
those driving on the road. Of course he didn't see any
violators as the fuel that he was there soon was known
from one end of the straightaway to the other.
An average dally attendance of 22 youngsters was
reported at the vacation Bible school at the schoolhouse
here. A program reviewing the work done will be given
Tuesday night at the schoolhouse.
Beginning this date, the Table Rock store will be
open seven days a week until Oct. 1, Mrs. Johns Thomas
announced.
At the meeting of Mall Tribune correspondents held
Monday, at the Twltchell home, there were only two
men present. The rest were all women who are credited
with doing the most talking and must do the lion's
share of spreading the news by the written word. It was
an interesting meeting, conducted by Cleve Twltchell,
M. T. regional editor, and we learned many things, al
though they say you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
Perhaps what we learned may show up In future Tab
lets. At present, we are limited to time and space. How
ever, we were served with delicious cake, coffee and
punch. The treats were on the house, and the house be
longed to Cleve and his wife.
