TOWN TALK
(Continued from Page 13)
Grace Skaar, famous for her highpriced and stylish Christmas card
designs and for her children’s
books, says someturtles have been
found to be carriers of an unusual
. bug that gives people symptoms
similar to food poisoning.
Now the question is, where do
you have a turtle checked out?
Dr. George Knox of the Grass
Valley Veterinary Hospital says
he doesn't know --but admits to
not being a turtle expert. And
Hal Cox's county health office
hasn't heard of turtle ptomaine
either,
But Grace is sticking to her guns.
She says she heard the report about
what everyone had regarded as
man's cheapest, quietest, and
least objectionable pet on the CBS
Mike Wallace morning news a
few days ago.

Earl Covey, president of the
Grass Valley chamber, chairman
of one of the general plan subcommittees, pusher for the Grass
Valley freeway, and--among
other things--organizer of the
popular new organization called
Sonsin Retirement, isn't exactly
retiring, it seems.
There's gold in them thar hills:
Stanley Halls and Downey Clinch
are wandering around these days
with 18-carat gold plated buttocks. Ignored the wet-refurbishing sign on the chairs in
the richly re-decorated National
Hotel Victorian Dining Room.
Left them with a gilty feeling.

WILDFLOWER. OF THE WEEK
Pacific Star Flower, Trientalis latifolia, Primrose Family
Taking advantage of the pale sunshine filtering through the
branching canopy of evergreen trees in our forests, the thin leaves
of the Star Flower spread horizontally, close to the sun flecked
ground, From five to nine of these lanceolate leaves form a whorl
of green atopa slender, erect stem four to nine inches tall, Poised
above these on threadlike stems are dainty white to pale pink blossoms like seven pointed stars, usually only one blooming on a plant
at one time and rarely more than three may be found.
Usually shade loving plants are apt to be neglected by butterflies
and bees so these plants offer a process of selfpollination, The
closing of the petals brings any pollen that may be clinging to the
anthers at the time into close contact with the stigma, thus causing —
pollination,
Locally, avery common sight in our woods, these make their first
appearance in May and may be found on into late July.

none of this seems out of place
asa military garrison was part of
the scene in mission days,
We were fortunate in making
our visit when the wildflowers
were atthe height of their bloom,
Lupines were most in evidence,
vast expanses of them, with
smaller fields of owl's clover,
wild violets and a variety of
small yellow or cream-colored
daisies,
We traveled by a rugged backcountry road from Greenfield, but
it is possible to reach the mission
by paved road if you approach via
U, S. 101 and King City, From
there the route zigzags westward
through the Santa Lucia Mountains to the coast highway just
south of Big Sur, with pavement
part way and well-graded gravel
from the summit down to the
beach.
The scenery was superb, green
fields with vistas of wildflowers,
oaks just coming into leaf, and
everywhere a feeling of peace
and serenity, Eden might have
looked like this at the dawn of
creation.
