Onemanandaboywere instantly killed and an- other man probably fatally injured near Los Molinos this afternoon when north- bound passenger train No. 56 struck an automobile broadside. The dead: HarryStilts,orchardistof Corning. Norman Kline, 15 year oldsonofMr.andMrs.Clar- ence Kline of Los Molinos. Seriously injured: Fred H. Camp, business man of Corning. The fatal accident oc- curred as the train was approaching Los Molinos where it was due at 2:51. Only a few minutes before Stilts and Camp who had driven from Corning in a Chandler sport model car, left the Hayes garage in Los Molions where they called to inquire where the Klines lived. Meanwhile Stilts and Camp drove to the old Froome place, about a half a mile south of town. The na- ture of their business there has not so far been dis- closed, but in any event they called for the Kline boy, and the three drove away. The railroad crossing which is only a short distance from where the Klines reside, is just south of the Standard Oil station. Here they at- tempted to drive over the tracks and were hit by the train. — Nov. 15, 1924 90YEARSAGO... Prominent Corning orchardist killed while crossing Espee track just below Los Molinos The Red Bluff Commu- nity blood drive is sched- uled for 2-6 p.m. Wednes- day, Nov. 19 at the Veter- ans Memorial building at the corner of Oak and Jack- son streets. Although names have been modified through the years, this blood drive has functioned continuously each month for 63 years, and Red Bluff Emblem club has provided volun- teers for it for 33 years. Originally called the Te- hama County Blood Bank, it was one of the first mo- bile blood drives of the Sacramento Medical So- ciety's non-profit affiliate. Clara Parker, former publisher of the Red Bluff Daily News, saw the need in 1951, during the Korean War. With the help of the community and her fellow Soroptimist club members, she got it organized. Since then the parent or- ganization has changed its name to BloodSource, and it has a Redding facility that provides professional staff for the blood drives. BloodSource serves the blood needs of hospitals in Tehama and other in- land counties in Northern California. Now that churches, high schools and other groups in the county have their own blood drives, the name of the original group has become the Red Bluff Community blood drive. It is open to walk-ins with- out appointment on the third Wednesday of each month. Next blood drive will be Dec. 17.

School district hands out holiday turkeys RED BLUFF HIGH Aging is inevitable. I am a senior and, as much as I would like it to be different, I realize that I cannot do all the physi- cal activities that I did in my younger years with the same fer- vor. How- ever, being older does have its advan- tages. I find I am a bit mel- lower and that I have, over the years, gained experi- ence that, for the most part keeps me out of a great deal of trouble. Senior pets are no different. They may be a little slower in some areas but they still have a lot to offer, among which is expe- rience and the sweetness of maturity. Often disputed is the definition of what is old. Whether human, canine, or feline everyone has differing opinions based on chron- ological age, mental acu- ity, and physical ability. The common thought is that cats and dogs become se- nior around seven years old. Typically, larger dogs tend to have shorter life spans than their smaller compatri- ots do. Nevertheless, like the rest of us, given a nutritious diet, enough exercise, reg- ular check-ups and regular grooming there is no reason why an elderly pet cannot enjoy a good life for many years. Unfortunately, senior pets often end up in shel- ters for a variety of rea- sons, most of which are not their fault. Many times they end up there because their guardians have either died or entered a geriatric facil- ity and other family mem- bers, if present, are unwill- ing to take on the respon- sibility. In other instances, their own human fam- ily may not have the time, money, or inclination to properly care for the animal after the puppy or kitten stage has passed. If you are looking for a furry companion to go on extended long hikes or to run alongside you as you jog or bike, then a senior dog may not be for you. While seniors cannot sus- tain strenuous exercise for long periods it does not mean, however, that they should be only couch pota- toes. Pets need to stay ac- tive and, with regular ex- ercise and/or play sessions, they will be less likely to decline quickly. With older pets, what you see is what you get. Not only have they have reached their full-grown size, but their personality has al- ready developed. Thus, it is easier to see if the animal will be a perfect fit for you and your family. "You can't teach an old dog new tricks", is not only a ridiculous adage for us of the older generation, it is also quite ludicrous when applied to pets. Youths, in whatever venue, typi- cally have shorter attention spans and less impulse con- trol than their more ma- ture counterparts. Older animals, as a rule, will fo- cus more readily and with better comprehension on the job at hand. Another positive factor is that se- nior dogs and cats are most likely already house trained. Puppies and kittens are notorious for getting into trouble. Chewing, scratch- ing, and other unwanted behaviors have decimated untold amounts of furni- ture and articles of cloth- ing in many households. Seniors, conversely, often know what appropriate con- duct is and do not need the constant monitoring and reinforcement that younger pups and kitties do. Other food for thought for the more mature is that obtaining either a puppy or kitten can mean many years of responsibility that an older person may not have. However, to those se- niors I would suggest con- sidering a pet who is also in his or her golden years. Having the companionship of a faithful friend and pro- viding a loving home to an elderly pet can be a win-win for everyone. Despite some special con- siderations that an older pet might require, if you were willing to adopt one through your local shelter or rescue, you just might find out what many of us al- ready know, seniors rock.
