Not Every Rider Sticks His Mount At Big Round-Up The appearance of Chub Morgan on the Red Bluff Roundup track early this afternoon was the signal for a warm greeting from the big audience in the grand- stand and bleachers. The clever rider and clown was as pleased to be there as the friendly audience was to see him, for he had a narrow escape yesterday after- noon from injury in the bulldogging contest. — Sept. 15, 1922 advance by calling 527-2414. Two percent milk is served with each meal. Menu is subject to change. Mercy miracles, iPads and tin cans Pink Ladies come around and ask if they can bring something to the patient, happy comments, care- ful responses and snacks are offered to those being treated. Without a doubt the atmosphere is careful, clean and comforting. Friendly conversations and inter- mittent naps float among the patients. Hurley takes a few naps during the time which is the approximately five hours of the process. Daughter, and I take our I-pads to use both for entertainment and purpose. We share positive words and even talked of the old days when chil- dren used tin cans attached to cop- per wire and talked to each other as if it were a telephone communica- tion. The progress of tin cans was fun for kids in bygone days. Today many children have mechanical cell phones, and even I-pads. As some of us look back to the activities we did many years ago we see the new materials of today. Some of these materials and machine are great; others can be a challenge to learn. Times have changed some changes not so good and there are those happenings that have excelled. Yes, some positive experi- ences have come our family's way. Hurley is receiving Chemo Therapy at Mercy Medical and he is receiv- ing the best of treatment along with many others who are having the same helpful actions. Nurses are excellent, kind, friendly and consci- entious. As many of us type away on electric computers today, we occa- sionally look back to the type writing machines of long ago, not electric but a variety of type writers with ink tape. Those machines were considered the best of all times when articles we whipped off were quickly sent to newspapers for pub- lishing. The information was presented to the local newspaper by hand as the typed words were to be put on to the old fashioned press as quickly as possi- ble. Yes, such a newspaper office was in Red Bluff quite a number of years back. For those of us who have lived a large number of years, we have been privileged to learn a lot about the progress of our present times. Most of it is positive although a few of us still use some old fashioned tools to produce our products these days. I don't use it very often, how- ever I still have a "Canon Starwriter ," to type messages on paper and produce them, I don't use it unless my modern computer is temporari- ly out of condition. I have a family member who has "The Oliver Typewriter Visible Writer" This typewriter was fist patented in 1804 and the last one available was produced in 1909. An ink tape remains in the 1909 typewriter, however I believe it is dry. Still it is something to gaze Standard been awarded an hon- orary life membership in Emblem club for her years of service. The certificate from the Supreme Emblem Club of the United States of America was presented at a recent luncheon. In 1969 she joined Eureka Emblem club #298,and served there as president for the 1975- 76 and 1982-83 years. Since moving to Cotton- wood she has main- tained dual membership with Red Bluff #408. She has held many offices in both, traveling 180 miles between clubs to attend both meetings. She took part in countless club activities, Carolyn Barber at and think of days gone by. I am not sure ink tapes for such machines are still avail- able and if they are, I am guessing that the tapes are a bit expensive to purchase. Yes, it is possible that I may still have another old type writer some- where, it has not been used regularly. It simply brings back the "olden days" when things were different. machines and very knowledgeable employees greet and treat those patients who are present. We peruse through old and present times and find ourselves living through both eras gaining more knowledge based on past and pre- sent progress. So the reminiscing of old times can be done in the modern hospital while up to date very uplifting. The following words express days of life so well. Memories of past times can be "There are no days in life as memorable as those which vibrated to some stroke of the imagination." — Ralph Waldo Emerson Carolyn Barber has been writing her column in the Daily News since 1992. It appears on Saturdays. She can be contacted by e-mail at hur- car@yahoo.com. Kneaper named honorary life member of Emblem club Susie Kneaper has including cooking for dinners. She was espe- cially renowned for her meat loaf. Besides her local par- ticipation, she also held state and national offices. The Supreme board of directors commended her as exemplifying what Emblem is all about. Dawn Pedersen, Eureka club president, joined Jeannie Garton, Red Bluff club officer, in presenting the certifi- cate. Although it was pre- sented in the name of Red Bluff, Eureka joined in sponsoring her and in donating in her honor to the Supreme scholarship fund. When will kids stop asking for money? Dear Annie: When can we stop giving our children money? When is enough enough? My daughter and her husband are in their mid-30s. They bought a house they could not afford. On top of that, they are in the middle of filing for bankruptcy, as they have been over- spending for years. My daughter works two jobs that provide neither a consistent paycheck nor benefits. Her husband's job is more stable, but his salary is low. At one point, we gave her one of our used cars, which she was able to keep running for a couple of years. When that car died, I took money out of my retirement fund to buy her a used car. My son-in-law's mother just bought them a new oven. Annie's Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar My question is: When does all this stop? I worked for 30 years and never once asked my mother for money. I'm tired of doing and doing for them. At what point can a parent stop taking on the problems of their children? — Resenting Parent Dear Parent: Whenever you are willing to let them sink or swim on their own. When an adult child is having temporary financial difficulties, it is a kindness for a parent to offer to help, provided the parent can afford it and the child uses the assistance to get out from under. But if a parent is con- stantly bailing out an irresponsible spendthrift, the handouts must stop before parents become impover- ished and resentful in a misguided attempt to ''save'' their children. And these children never learn to stand on their own two feet. Consider whether you are help- ing or simply prolonging your daughter's financial dependence, and act accordingly. Dear Annie: I read the letter from ''Wigged Out,'' who has a condition that makes her hair fall out.

I have thin hair and wear a weave method called a cap, done by a local hairdresser. It's a process of braiding or molding one's hair and putting a stocking cap or mesh on the hair (this allows the hair to breathe). Then the woven hair is sewn or glued on top. It allows you to wear your hair however you want — long, medium or short — and is not noticeably different from regular hair. Hope this helps. — F. Dear F.: Readers offered many suggestions. Here are more: contributes to hair loss. My husband encour- aged me to order some beautiful synthetic wigs, which I have worn for years. At one event, a woman said she wished her hair could always look as nice as mine. I replied, ''It can,'' and lifted off my wig. It turned the party upside down, and everyone had a ball trying on my wig and getting info. A wig is no different from a hat, scarf or barrette. It is an accessory to enhance the beauty of the head. Wisconsin: She should consider hair extensions or a hairpiece that is bonded to her scalp and stays on for weeks at a time. Either of these would be more natural looking and cooler than a wig. I have been wearing lightweight bonded hairpieces for 10 years. I can swim, play golf, exercise, sleep and anything else without removing my hair. No one can tell, and I am never ''wigged out.'' From Boston: I, too, take medication that know absolutely everything about you. I wear hearing aids, but I was sensitive about them, even though my hair did a nice job of covering them up. One ''friend'' took it upon herself to reach up and pull my hair back so she could see for herself whether I had hearing aids. I resisted the urge to slap her, but have avoided her ever since. I do not consider a person a friend if she does such a thing.
