Because camping is so pop
ular with Oregon families, we
asked Jessalee Mallalie, ex
tension recreation specialist
at Oregon State university,
for tips on how to be pre
pared. Check your insurance,
especially if you have a trail
er, she recommends. You may
need additional coverage. Do
you have Insurance on your
camera, gun, outboard motor,
boat, and other special gear?
You'll need a fire permit In
some areas. Don't forget your
fishing license. Make sure
your family has a health
checkup and while you're
about It, get a safety check
for your car.
Make a list of all the gear
you'll need and see that the
gear is in good shape before
you start.
.
Outdoor enthusiasts, If you
get tar or pitch on your
clothes, treat spots first be
fore tossing them in the
washer. Sponge stain with
turpentine. You can also use
nail polish remover or ace
tone to remove the spots.

'Can-Can" nt'l petticoats
need starch. Here's an easy
way to keep them crisp and
fresh, Hang the washed pet
ticoat on a clothes line to
dHp dry. When just slight
damp, spray completely with
spray starch and allow to dry.
Touch up the bottom edge
with i steam Iron.
If you like a stiff petticoat,
prepare a recipe of heavy
starch using the lump or cube
type. The package directions
will tell you how. Put the
washed petticoat In the pan
of hot starch, saturate thor
oughly and hang to dry with
out wringing.
For less stiffness at the

MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON
Former Medford Woman
Describes Alaskan Camp
(Editor's Note: The fol
lowing is the second letter
received from Mrs. Kenneth
Brown, former Medlord res
ident, who with her hus
band is living on an island
off the coast of Alaska.
They are there for the sum
mer while Mr. Brown is em
ployed with a logging con
tractor. The couple was ac
tive in Crater Lake aerie
and auxiliary. Fraternal Or
der of Eagles, while here.)
You asked about the camp.
Well, in the camp itself there
are the machine shops and the
barge the men live on, and
the big oil tanks, then along
the edge of the bay, a trailer
house, two houses on a barge
and our house. The big barge
is about 50 by 150 feet, and
there is a two-story building
on it. Upstairs is where the
men sleep.
Three rooms sleep one man
each, five rooms sleep two
men each, and eight rooms
sleep four men each. The toi
lets and showers and laundry
rooms-are also up there. That's
where we women do our
washing, but we have to be
sur-c no one is up there and
hurry and get out. Do.w.nstairs
at one cud is t-he office w-hich
is also the. commissary and
fir-st a-id room.
Beside it across the end is
a room where the dishwasher
sleeps and then a room where
the men take off their caulk
shoes and get the slippers they
left there in the morning as
they can't wear caulks up
stairs. Dini-ng Room
The dining room is the full
width of the building and
about half the lenrgth, and the
tables are the usual kind with
benches attached. The kitchen
is next and it is the most
complete camp kitchen I have
ever seen. The dishwasher has
his usual set of sinks and the
flunky has his own sinks too
on one side.
Across the back of rhe
kitchen is a cold-room and a
walk-in deep freeze. Then
more storage sn-pce and the
cook's side where she also has
a set of sintas and her work
tables and big mixer. She has
two electric ovens, they each
hold six pies at a time, an
electric French fryer, a huge
restaurant range and two elec
tric grills. The cook's quar
ters are behind the kitchen.
The actual logging isn't
very far from camp yet. Ken
ny estimated about two and
a half miles of main road
have been completed to the
working area. About one
fourth mile of road goes from
camp to the powder house
and gravel pit. The gravel is
all crushed for them. All they
do is scoop it into the trucks.
It is rock that has come down
with the glaciers. I thought
it would be pretty, but it.isn't,
we have -several rock-hounds
in the crew and they are most
disappointed in it.
Gravel Trucks
The company has three
gravel trucks aRd skip-loader.
(Kenny says most of them
down there would call it a
front-end gravel laadcr.) They
arc running three sides with
two donkeys and a triple-
drum cat yarder. One donkey
side is a cold deek and they
will swing it eventually.
There are Hmee logging trucks
and they haul the loss to the
rafting ground and dump them
in the water.
All the rafts are bundle
rafts, that means straps are
put around the load while it
is still on the truck and dump
ed as a unit, put in the raft
that way too. The dump is
what we call the salt chuck.
It's a sort of Inner bay which
raises and lowers with the
tide. Where It starts you can
wade across it, as it is a Small
creek at low water, but it wid
ens out to cover a space of
about 35 acres.
The rafts have to be brought
out at high water. There is
one boom boat which is an all
steel diesel and the Myra, a
small tug and work boat.

The timber is hemlock and
spruce, mostly hemlock. Sev
enty to 75 per cent of it goes
to Sitka to the pulp mill and
the saw logs go to the mill
at Wrangell. We have three
rafts right out in front now
and a big tug came and got
two others last night. It is all
government timber and there
is a forest service man here
all the time. About half the
time two or three others are
here too.
July 4
July 4 wilt be upon us soon
and we are going to town.
We plan to go in, the 'morn
ing of the third and come back
on the fifth. The rigging crew
is going to be down but the
cutting crew is supposed to
work. Kenny says he needs
a vacation, he's only been out
of camp once since Feb. 6. We
want to get a refrigerator and
paint for both inside and out
side and all kinds of things.
Our sink and plumbing and
wiring supplies finally came
so I should have water and
lights soon.
When I go to Sitka I'm go
ing to go to see the old Rus
sian church and I'll write you
about it. Our son says it de
fies description, but I can try.

By MARGARET SCHULER
Berlin - We pulled up be
hind the iron frame work in
front of the Brandenburg gate
and our guide told us it was
being built for a reviewing
stand for President Kennedy,
adding slyly, that it was al
most ready, except for the
rocking chair.
We have done more than
the President will do of sight
seeing. We have been for
three hours in East Berlin. We
went through "Check Point
Charlie," over the narrow
opening, spent a half hour de
claring our every penny-or
mark - being looked at, and
compared with our passport
pictures.
A Russian girl guided us on
the East side. Marty, my
grandson, said, I thought rath
er pertinently, "What a dif
ference a wall makes."
Because, from busy shop
filled, restaurant - filled, and
street-filled West Berlin, one's
going into the eastern sector
was like drifting into a ghost
town. The wide, once beauti
ful streets were almost de
serted; there were few cars,
and few people. Bombed
buildings remain as they
were, rubble is in great piles.
Shop windows, (which the
guide from West Berlin told
us were for show) had but
scanty, cheap displays. We
saw no one in the shops. There
was no noise, and we won
dered where the million peo
ple were who live there, and
how they eat. We saw few
vegetable stands. These had
queues in front of them. We
were told, also, that what au
tomobiles there are, belong
to the state.
Visit Park
At one place we were al
lowed out of the bus. It was
in one of the most beautiful
parks I have seen in Europe
Treptow. It is now a memorial
to the Russian dead: five thou
sand are buried there. Great
marble statues commemorate
the place. One had a broken
swastika at the base. But no
one was in the park, only
women, who were sweeping
the paths.
We were allowed to take
pictures there. In fact, every
where. But as the windows
were all tightly fastened, it is
probable they would not be
very clear. We were permitted
to take pictures of the mound
designating the spot where
Hitler committed suicide-and
every one did.
Wall Formidable
After the three hours, we
were checked again, and our
faces studied to see there was
no funny business. The Rus
sian girl went through the lug
gage compartments and we re
turned to "Check Point
Charlie." We left the eastside
paradise and we all relaxed
with the German girl, who
was as cute as a button, and
came on again, to guide. She
told us many facts of interest.
There is no telephone con

nection between East and
West and no water supply.
Much is written about tha
thirty-five mile long wall, but
until I saw it, I did not ap
preciate the dreadful formid
able thing it is. At intervals,
on the street in front of the
wall, are simple, wooden me
morials, marking places whera
those who were unsuccessful
in escaping, lty.
The wall blindly follows tha
street, covering windows of
houses where once friends had
waved to one another, cover,
ing a part of a beautiful brick
church, and growing higher
and higher. It is said 10,000
police guard the wall, but I
didn't see one. They hide be
hind windows and peep
through holes in the brick.
The guide told us that many
of them are mere youngsters
16 and 18 years old. She said
in plain American, "They are
trigger happy.". She warned
us against doing anything un
precedented. On the east sida
of the wall, it is painted white,
so shadows of escapees can
better be seen.
When we left the street of
the wall, there was again
bustle and busy living. About
65 per cent of the buildings
have been reconstructed in
West Berlin. The new area is
modern and elegant. Restau
rants, beautiful out-door cafes
and coffee shops, are every
where, and they all seemed
filled to capacity.
Food Good
Food tasted so very good.
There were large helpings of
meat, which coming from
Italy we noticed particularly,
and found less expensive than
in Rome.
At the Templchaf airport a
little incident occurred which
made us feel good. We wera
flying, and were about to
leave, when the driver of the
cab we had come in, to the
terminal, returned to give
Marty his bill fold which ha
had lost out of his hip pocket.
The Mersereaus once left a
camera - a $400 camera - in a
taxi in Rome. It was reported
immediately and checked in,
but no one had seen it. I never
heard of anything lost, either
in cabs or streetcars, which
was ever found in Rome.
Most Germans speak Eng
lish, many, many more in
shops and public places than
in Italy.
And a little irrelevant note:
women were stylishly dressed,
girls pretty, and I wished I
had owned a hat (which I do
not).
It was not my idea to go to
Berlin. Marty wanted to sea
the WALL. I am glad we did
now.
