Dunbar 273-2934 4-Hers are not the only ones in Rough and Ready who get in on the fun at the District Fair. Mrs. Frances Moore entered some of her sheep. She won seven Blue Ribbons, four second and two third places. Don Moore (senior) entered four cows and won two Blue Ribbons, one second and one third place. Young Miss Dede Moore (4-Her) told me all about their awards very proudly, Oe Mrs. Glenda Prochaska has just returned from a family gettogether in Abbottsford, Canada, It was only a short visit because the uncle they went there to see is not too well. Glenda's cousins and aunts and uncles gathered from as far away as Florida. It was the largest group of her monther's family that had been able to get together in over 20 years. Glenda and her mother and some of the family visiting here had a marvelous trip north and everyone enjoyed the family visit. Abbotsford is just over the U. S. border near Seattle. A frightening part of their visit was the narcotics problem the Canadian government is fighting there. Her uncle told them that the Mounties had picked up 23 in one week, While Glenda didn't know the punishment in detail, she said they were dealing with them very firmly there. Saddest commentary about the situation is that, just as we blame the Problem on our neighbor, Mexico, so, they blame it on us for our lack of dealing with it— ey: ook ke Mr. and Mrs. Jack Bixler (not E.L. ‘Jack’ Bixler) former residents of the Mobile Homes Park have bought a lot on the Colorado River in Arizona and are buying a new mobile home, They plan to settle there permanently.

Penn Valley. When the McCras recently moved to Rough and Ready, young Kim McCrea stayed with his old group Troop 4 in Grass Valley. There is a very interesting reason. Kim's father, Allan joined Troop 4 way back in 1934 and about 3 years ago when Kim completed Cub ranks he too joined Troop 4, Both Kim and his father have had the same Scoutmaster, Mr. Sam Partridge. Kim is a Star Scout now.
