Phone 3161 East on Portland Highway Double Trouble Strikes Home RIVERVIEW—Another one of those double-trouble affairs struck Riverview Friday, This time it was the Albert Schmidlin home. Mr. Schmidlin who has suffered for three weeks from shingles was ordered that morning by his physician to the Good Samaritan hospital in Portland for examina­ tion by a, nerve specialist and for treatment and in the afternoon, Mrs. Schmidlin’s two brothers-in- law, Joe Able of Portland and Johnnie VanDomelen of Roy came up to tell her that her brother, Ervin Murry, of Roseburg had passed away the day before. Dou­ ble pr.eumonia had caused his death. Mrs. Schmidlin accompan­ ied her daughter, Mrs. Wm. Braun, and son, Billie, and Mrs. Snyder of St. Paul to Portland Sunday to see her husband who was resting quite comfortably. Mr. Schmidlin’s many friends hope for his speedy recovery. We' extend sympathy to Mrs. Schmid- Jin in her hour of bereavement. A new Rototiller was delivered to Walter Moore Wednesday. Mr. Moore is very busy getting ac­ quainted with it and destroying his wild daisy beds. Nate Huntley of Carlton brought his nephews, Russell Toll and Tom Teal, to the Louis Hunt- ley home Sunday.

E. Sullivan enjoyed a visit Sunday with her brother, Jack Wolf, of the merchant ma­ rine, who iis here on a leave of indefinite length due to the mari­ time strike. She had not seen Jack for four years. The Sulli­ vans recently came from Arizona where their rains come every 12 or 14 months, but they say they don’t mind the Oregon rains. A trio of hunters, Tommy Hall, Ward Plummer and Edwin Jus­ tice, came in late Saturday with a two-point deer which they felt they had doubly earned as they had to carry it more than two miles to get it on wheels.

There’s somebody at the piano; a guitar; a fiddle player; and Molly Birtles even has a harp! Lovely, easy-to~manage arrangements can be yours for the asking by an appointment at this Riverview shop.. En­ hance your appearance by tak­ ing advantage of the facilities at the modern— Rivsrview Beauly What comes out isn’t the best music in the whole world. In fact, a lot of it is downright bad. But nobody even thinks to question or to criticize. Because the spirit of harmony is there—harmony between folks who like each other’s company, who en­ joy the simple, homey atmosphere —with nothing more exciting than old songs, and a glass of moderate beer or cider. From where I sit, it’s a heap more importarit to be a poor fiddle player, than not to play at all. More important to be a part of the American scene—with its commu­ nity music, home entertainment, friendly glass of beer — than to hold out for professional perfec­ tion. (Besides, I like to play the fiddle—even badly!)
