By ETHEIYN EVANS , ' Manor members enjoying the good life b u a y and worthwhile are not con fined to any one age class We are justifiably proud of both the past and present ac tivities of our "Senior Citi zens," three of whom have now reached the nonagena rian class. For instance, Mrs. Alice Applegate Pell, member of an Oregon pioneer family, has lived a long, long life in our valley and Klamath county. Details of her life a.e well known in Southern Ore gon. However, I should like to recommend an excellent article written by Mrs. Peil published in the September, 1958, Oregon Historical ..Quarterly which is on file at our Medford library. It is titled "Old Oregon School Days." In telling this spar kling tale of her childhood, school days and professional years, Mrs. Peil draws a vivid picture of early pioneer times - in Oregon. Especially, I wish our young citizens would read it, although they prob ably would find it Incredible. She describes the tiny one- room schools with logs left 'out- for light; the drinking , water bucket in the corner wltn one dipper; writes of ' pupils trudging miles to school or traveling many ' more miles in hacks, sleighs or on horseback; and of a single teacher instructing all grades and all ages; and, later on, the long, hard jour neys to "normal" schools to complete her training. None . of this so much as dampened Mrs. Peil's ambition to ob tain an education and then go ' on to teaching others. The two and three days of slow ' traveling from her home in the Klamath country to Mon mouth Normal and to Ash land, first as a student and then as an instructor, were hazardous trips on icy moun tain roads, often in snow and rain. She accomplished her purpose and tells of "joyous, ; happy" terms teaching in the little school she had attend ed as a child. She became the first woman school principal in Oregon and kept on teach ing for more than So years Five of our present Manor members were her pupils In a Lakcview, Ore., school. We must remember that teachers then did not work a 20-hour week on one sub ject but had to teach every thing, while facing severe I disciplinary problems with some pupils who were really half-grown men; but there is not one hint of complaining, moaning, groaning or self- pity in her entire story. One wonders if anyone in this generation would even at tempt an education under such circumstances. It stag gers the imagination to com pare those times with the ease, comfort and coddled progress of pupils now. Retired and living In the Manor, Mrs. Peil still '.ls- plays the same indomitable spirit, cheer and wit. She is interested and interesting and never misses a program, believing that sleep Is for times when there is nothing else to do, She often goes off to Ashland, where she lived for many years, or to Med ford to be honored as a first president, charter member or as the organizer of this and that. A second member, now past 90, is another in our long list ' of lifetime workers in the academic profession: Miss Margaret Hewett, from New ark, N.J., who is really re markable for her activities. Alert and staunchly inde pend. Miss Hewett also never misses a thing, Including sev eral organized bus tours ar ranged for Manor members. 4 A reception August 2 observed the golden wedding of Mr. and Mn. Norman Hawk, 1709 East Jackson street. The Hawks have lived in Jackson county for many years. Remove mildrew from leather by running a small amount of petroleum jelly on the mildew spot.

New Therapy Found For Acne, Is Claim New York - (UPH - Acne vulgaris, the common and often stubborn skin ailment, has been found to respond well to a combined treatment with phisohex, and antibac terial soapless skin cleanser, and phlsoac, a skin colored cream. In a study by Dr. Louis Wcx- ler, of New York, a group of 100 acne patients, aged 11 to 39, were directed to wash with the antibacterial agent three to four limes a day and to ap ply the cream every night.
