Tehama County is not as it used to be when the Tehama District Fair was held before school started in the fall of the year. For those of us who have lived in Tehama County more than three quarters of our existence on earth we remember the August Fair. Most Tehama County Schools are getting back to classes in the middle of August. Be sure to check with the school your child will attend to be sure of the actual date when students should be back in their classrooms. Now is the time to prepare children for their learning adventure. "Sending every child back to school with: Pride, dignity and a feeling of self-worth" is the most important part of his or her life. Kim Berry is the School Project Director this year. The Back to School project will be having a ben- efit breakfast today that will be $5. Oropeza of Pronto market is offer- ing his services to prepare this breakfast. The First Church of God has provided the kitchen and serv- ing area. The breakfast begins at 7 until 10 a.m. at the First Church of God in Red Bluff. For more infor- mation call 529-4074. Speaking of back to school time, I am reminded of the schools I attended while growing up. My first school adventure took place in Golden, Colo., I entered at the first grade level as my mother felt that I was too young to tramp several blocks through snow to get to the school at the tender age of five years. We happened to live in a base- ment house made of stones that had 12 steps down to the door to enter our home. When the snow was heavy, the closed in with stone entry filled with snow and kept the entry door flattened against the house. We had to wait until the neighboring owners came to our rescue and dug us out so we could get up and out to the front yard. Mostly we wanted to make snow- men and through snow balls so I wasn't upset about not going to Kindergarten. My mother’s 1930s Ford always had to be parked on a ramp next to the railroad so that mother could get it started with the motor warming. The snow that piled overnight onto our house had also piled high onto the ramp D NEWSAILY HOW TO REACH US RED BLUFF TEHAMACOUNTY THE VOICE OF TEHAMA COUNTY SINCE 1885 VOLUME 126, NUMBER 215 On the Web: www.redbluffdailynews.com MAIN OFFICE: Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Main Phone (530) 527-2151 Outside area 800-479-6397 545 Diamond Ave. Red Bluff, CA 96080 ______________________ Fax: (530) 527-5774 ______________________ Mail: Red Bluff Daily News P.O.

At any rate it was determined that I would have to go to school for first grade. I was so sur- prised to find that the first grade boys and girls could not read. Kindergarten did not do reading, however my mother read many things to my brother and me and used the Parent Magazine to teach my brother and me many words. She always had us read the words to anyone who came to visit us. I had no trouble reading at school so that was a life saver as Mother still could- n't send me to school on many days. Daddy was away in the armed services and we still had to wait until the neighbors dug us out of the basement house. A few years back our first born daughter took my dad and me on a trip to Colorado and South Dakota. I asked my father to direct us to the basement house where we used to live. He remembered and Daughter number one drove us right to the street where the house was located. The basement house looked much the same but someone had built a shed over the descending steps to the house. There also was a sign on a metal fence that surrounded the property. The house is now owned by Coors Beer Co. which is very close to it. My next school adventures were, measles and the chicken pox during the school year. My little brother also had to be taken by street car to the hospital to have his appendix removed. He stayed there for ten long days which had mother and me traveling twice a week on the street car to see him. She didn't send me to school during these med- ical emergencies. We left Denver and Carolyn Barber traveled to Payette, Idaho where my mother's brother and his wife and family lived. My dad heard that he could sell Kaiser- Frazier cars if we went to Idaho. My best friend, Carolyn Beth Lundstrom lived across the street from our upstairs apartment. We entered school in Payette and lo and behold Miss Jane Shamberg was my most beloved teacher and the aunt of Carolyn Beth. We learned a lot from Miss Shamberg. Carolyn B. and I, Carolyn J. stayed after school every day to clean the black- boards and empty the waste bas- kets. It was a wonderful learning year, learning to play the tonette, (child's flute), met new school friends, vis- ited my cousins until we moved to Red Bluff, Calif. I attended Lincoln Street School for half of fourth grade and on to fifth, sixth and finally to seventh at Bidwell and 8th at Antelope School before entering RBUHS High School. two years at Golden's School, one more year at one of Denver's schools where I had a teacher named Miss Bobo and a Principal named Mrs. Doll. There was a treacherous spiral fire escape object that required us to hold on tight and spin around to the ground every month. Dizzy was the feeling. The second surprise was that we had classes in different rooms for each subject and it was a three story school building. Believe it or not I ran home four and one half blocks for lunch and back. I made sure I arrived at my home room class with Miss Bobo as she always read from "Little Anny Rooney," after lunch. The rest of my year's learning was hit and miss again as my brother and I had reac- tions to small pox vaccinations, the sort things to get ready for the sale are needed. Sort- ing and organizing will be done on Wednesday and Thursday. Call Pam Klein at 527-6439 if you can help out. All proceeds will go to help the PATH winter shelter, which opens Nov. 1. PATH thanks the com- munity for all the support in recent weeks.
