Today (Monday) it really feels like fall — the time of beginnings and endings. Al most the end of a nice, warm summer, the beginning of fall and a new school year. Thinking of learning makes me think of TV—which in most cases is not learning. But anyhow, many of us that are older can remember when the bedtime story hour was some thing that we heard as we sat on our Mother’s or Dad’s lap —or as we stared dreamy- eyed at the ceiling while they read to us just before we dropped off to sleep. Now most of the kids prefer to watch Batman on TV. In case you hadn’t thought about it—this has a lot to do with the poor readers we have today. Poor, not only in lead ing ability but poor in the ma ny wonderful things they are missing by not reading more books. Children have a ten dency to pick up traits and habits from their parents, whether they are good or bad. When they see them reading and are surrounded by good reading material, they usually figure this is a pretty good idea. So many times we hear people say, “Oh, I just don’t Well, it’s like all the other things in this world, we usual ly find time for the things we WANT to do. To me, it would be a pretty dull world without books and music. I always find time for both, but I will say that the housework doesn’t always get done. Think of the many ways you can get a “word in now and then”—keep a pocket-book in your purse; it’s probably bet ter reading than what you will find in most waiting rooms, doctor’s, dentist’s, beauty solon or what have you. Best of all, as far as I’m concerned is the reading I do before going to sleep. I’m go ing to have to get a new light ing set-up—my husband takes a dim view of me reading in bed, especially if he has to get up early in the morning. “Oh yeah?”, she replied, "prove it!” “I will, as soon our nurse leaves,” he replied. About then the nurse went out and he pulled down the covers. “See?” the lad challenged. “Blue booties!” Rowland Family Reunion Held Sunday The Rowland family reunion was held Sunday at Fisher men’s Bend park where Mr. and Mrs. Norman Garrison have their trailer parked. Those attending were Mr. and Mrs. Harry Edwards and Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Garrison and children, Ronnie, Beverly, and Terry of Mill City; Nora Follett and Mrs. Raymond Follett of Alsea; Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Garrison and Danny of Sisters; Mrs. Sid Gruggett of Mehama; Mr. and Mrs. Paul Pennington and children, Pau la, Chervl, Marlene and Lee of Mehf ma; LeEllen Grugett of Lebanon, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Zunk of Salem and Mr. and Mrs. Norman Garrison of Lakeview.
