16 TnE MORNING OREG ONI AN. FRIDAY. JULY 2, 1920 in oregdn mm OF PIONEERS MEET Old Folks of State Turn Cal endar Backward. TRIBUTE PAID TO QUEEN 7 05 Register Who Settled or Were Horn In State Prior to 1 85 0. The calendar was turned back 50 or 60 years yesterday when the boys and sirls of 1840 to 1S59 were caljed toKether by the 48th annual reunion of the Oregon pioneer association at the auditorium. It was perhaps the xlLmmest Katherintr of Oregon's grand oid people that has been held for many years. There were but 76C reg istrants entitled to the term: "Oregon pioneer." Proudly they wore the silk en ribbons that denoted the year they Arrived or were born in Oregon. One of the distinguishing features of the Oregon pioneers is the clarity of their memory. Many live in the world of today; but the great ma jority live in the time when the ox and the prairie schooner were the prin cipal means of transportation. Years Were Cood to Many. Some were frail and failing, but scores certainly did not look their iears, for it must be remembered that the youngest pioneer was born in ISii and is now at least 60 years of age. The oldest is probably W. D. Stillwell. aged 95 years. None could escape a thrill if he heard those hundreds of quavering voices, led by the pioneer quartet, sing "America." It was a vivid les son in Americanism to listen to the talcs of these sturdy folk who did their part perhaps the prime part in making the Oregon of today. And it was a charming picture to nee the perfect joy the old people had in hailing as their queen mother Mrs. Catherine J. Adams. 1852, 125 East Harrison street, Portland, who was rrowned with a chaplet of roses by J. D. Lee, 184S, past president. K1rt Orricon Children Attend. To those later Oregonians who do not know the significance' of the J ears, it may be said that the date denotes the year each pioneer ar rived at or was born in Oregon; none being registered as a pioneer who was not born or who did not arrive in Oregon prior to 1859. In - the gathering were Included Cyrus H. Walker, 1848, the first white boy born in the Oregon territory yet alive, and Mrs. Wilie Kdwards, 1840, the first white child born in Port land. "And there was not much here then, you know," said Mrs. Kdwards, as she glanced down Third street. It is a tribute to- tho stock from whi:h the pioneers came that when they all stood for the bencdlcion, pronounced by the chaplain, Rev. A. J. Joslyn, 1852, Canby, Or., not a sin gle pioneer craved the indulgence of her or his years and remained seat ed. Several, indeed, had to be held upright by the younger generation. They stood, too, while they paid a tribute, moistened by the tears of cores, to the memory of Mrs. Ite-bk-cca J. Barger, 1847, mother queen of Oregon, who at the age of 94, died last year. , They Came ly Varied Means. There were -n the great gathering men and women who had crossed the plains on foot, who had ridden across on their prairie schooners, who had foutrht Indians, who had traveled by sailing vess-.'l around the Horn; some c.'ime as babes in arms, some were husky young men and women, now, Uhr! mostly f-.vfcie, bent and worn. These men and women carved a home out of the forests. Foot by foot they made their clearings. Their names are an index almost of scores of Oregon towns, which were named by them or after them. The tales they tell are ever new. Great-granddads brought their Krandchildrvn and great-grandchildren that the latter might see the men nnd women who helped build Oregon, every one of whom was here when it was accorded the privileges of state hood. Pioneer families Attend. Again and again were there groups such as that of father and son or mother and daughter, both pioneers; There was Rev. A. J. Hunsacker, Mc Minnville, 1847, who was 13 years of age when he crossed the desert to reach Oregon, and with him was his daughter. Mrs. O. 12. Kittridge, 1858, Seattle, who was born in the Oregon territory. The afternoon programme was in the form of exercises; that in the evening partook of the nature of re miniscences. And the greatest joy in the pioneer meetings, though they may rapidly thin as the years pass, lies in the reminiscences springing up when the boys and girls, the comrades and the young men and women of the early days grip each other warmly by the hand. Family Success Pleases. They point out the automobiles in which they reached the auditorium. "That's my boy's," one would proudly say. "Pretty different, eh, from the old linchpin wagon and the bucket of tar?" They wandered up to the headquar ters of the Oregon historical society. TI.ey fingered the relics. Then it was: "I remember" this or "1 remember" that. There was a story attached to each inanimate object. The story i.iaae each article live. A Jolly old crowd was the Oregon pioneer quartet, V. M. Morse. Dr. J. II Hail, H. W. Mills and Dr. Z. M. Par vin, who sang the old pioneer songs, with "The Star-Spangled Banner" and "America" for good measure. Mayor Gives Welcome. C A. Bigelow, acting mayor, gave the addrcsj of welcome and Rev. Mr. Hunsaker made a response. r. iuui, loji, iuKene, maue tne annual address. A pioneer himself. he paid a tribute to the pioneers of the state. He told of their hardships and tribulations and as he touched each fount of memory that grizzled greybeard or that face, wrinkled with tho lines that years only bring, nodded in acquiescence. He was one of them. They were proud to do him reverence. They listened carefully, hand cupped to ear, and agreed with every word he said. Charles B. Moores, 1852, paid the annual tribute to the memory of the 185 Argonauts who during the past year have traveled the sundown trail. "No longer with us in the flesh, they still live In the impression they have made upon the communities in which their lives were spent," he said. "The hand of death is now laid with greater frequency upon not only our pioneer friends but their descend ants of the second generation. Tribute Paid Departed.

Lee, past president, called a tiny little figure in black to the front of the auditorium and there placed upon her head the rose crown, nam ing her queen-mother. Mrs. Catherine J. Adams is the new queen. In a touching little speech Mr. Lee said she was the third of the royal line, none of whom had been under 90 years of age when elevated to the throne of the pioneers. Mrs. Virginia Spencer Hutchinson, OREGON TRAIL PERILS RECALL JDOUGHTY DEEDS OF SETTLERS Tales of Early Comers to State Cause Vivid Flow of Recollections About Annual Campfire When Few Survivors Gather Again. WD. STILLWELL, oldest living Oregon pioneer, aged 95, was escorted to the platform at the campfire and received an ovation from the pioneers. Mr. Stillwell lives at Tillamook. He is an Indian war veteran and came to Portland espe cially for the pioneer reunion and veterans' encampment. L. H. Baker told how, with George H. Himes and J; W. Baker, he came with the Kentucky train to Oregon in 1853. The party was organized by Mr. Baker's party and numbered 180. "There was only . one man who OREGON WHO SAW STATE RECEIVE HONOR OF STATEHOOD, 1 Mrs. AVllle Edwards. 1K40, first white child born In Portland. M tm. Catherine J.

Following the meeting the pioneers met in the basement for dinner. Hun dreds of Portland women, mostly of pioneer stock, served them and scores of Portland's most prominent men hurried from business just to walk S k. i, 7 f v,' LnL the gathering of Oregon e honored through the hall and see once more great. The pioneers ate heartily and with a wonderful appetite, stimulated by the oratory to which they had listened. Then for a couple of hours they sat on the auditorium steps or around the building, waiting for the annual .campfire. Some of the older ones had to be hurried home, but the great majority prevailed on their domineering sons and daughters or grandchildren to let them wait for the end of the great day. For there is just one day now in the life of an Oregon pioneer and that day is the annual reunion. shirked," said Mr. Baker, "and I am thankful I have forgotten his name. Oxen Sacrificed for Train. "I remember that James Biles, our captain, donated two of his oxen, val ued at $400 a great deal of money in those days to be killed so we could use their hides as ropes. "When we were crossing the Cas cades we had to lower the wagons down some of the canyons and finally our ropes wero worn out. We were at a loss what to do. till Biles said. "Bring me one of my oxen." They killed it and plaited the hide into ropes, but they were npt long enough, so Biles gave us another of his oxen, and then we had rope sufficient. Progress Was Slow. "Through the Cascade mountain for ests we did not make more than three miles a day and the notches we cut in the great trees so that wagon wheels could pass may still be found there. We were told there was a road, but we had to clear every inch of the way of underbrush so the wagons could ),Cl LINUUgll, BUIDKlllllCS flavin iu CUl down whole trees. In 1875 Rev. A. J. Hunsaker, 1S75, rode from Turner to Portland in one of the first steam trains. In Portland he found the modern wonder, a street car. and it was hauled by a team of mules. Mrs. Ellen L. Gerow. 1852, remem bered that the Indians demanded a milch cow as the ransom for the party, but her father, Daniel W. Gardner, was made of sturdy stock. -Without ja word he took out his blacksnake I 'hiP' cracked it loudly and said em phaUcany. -The .lndian that want wants my cow has to come and get it." The, Indians decided they did not want the cow. J. D. Lee, 1848, was congratulated by his brother pioneers at having been nominated to the house by both the democrats and republicans. If Mr. Lee is elected, he will occupy the same place he occupied 42 years ago, although since that time he was elect ed also to the senate. John W. Cullen, grand commander of the Indian War Veterans, was pre sented to the campfire last night by Colonel Robert A. Miller, 1854. Samuel Gatton, 1850, is proud of bragging that he scarcely walked a foot of the way to Oregon. Mr. Gat ton drove an ox team, his grandfather and grandmother riding in the bed of the wagon. And when they went to sleep Mr. Gatton stole a few winks up in front and they never knew a thing about it. IOst Opportunities -Now Seen. "And to think I came in 1850 and have never owned a foot of Oregon land in my life." said Mr. Gatton. Ex-President Hunsaker. of the vet erans, has the reputation of carrying a lamb for more than 500 miles on the way to . Oregon. Some of the veterans declared Mr. Hunsaker had carried the lamb 1000 miles. "No," said Mr. Hunsaker, "I never told it as more than 500 miles. I was only 13 years of age, back in '47, but every time I put the little thing down it just bleated and lay down, waiting for me to pick it up again. It was born on the way and unitl it. was able properly to care for itself I carried it." Margaret E. Engle, 1848, of Molalla, ia a spry young woman of 77 sum mers. She located her brother-in-law's brothers at the reunion and a right royal time they all had. The relatives were T. L. Kirk and Lloyd Kirk of Highland. Klrlc Is Some Carver. T. L. Kirk. 1S52, wears a carved wood chain which he manufactured from a single piece of wood., cutting each odd-shaped link within the other. The Beal brothers, 1848, are Josiah, aged 82, and J. W., aged 80. Josiah Is a confirmed bachelor, while Joel says married ..fe is the only one. They settled in Forest Grove, which has been their home ever since. Both lads helped whipsaw material for a flatboat in which they floated down the Columbia river. Mrs. Sarah H. Tompkins. 1847. was born in Molalla, Or. Her mother drove the first spring wagon ever driven across the plains. Mrs. Catherine J. Adams, the new queen-mother, was the oldest woman pioneer attending the reunion. She is 92 years of age and lives with her daughter. Mrs. Charles Pio. at 125 East Harrison street. Mrs. Adams had eight children, two of whom died in Infancy. But only two. William Ad ams of Hillsboro and Mrs. Pio. are now living. Yet she has 22 living grandchildren. 25 great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren. When Cyrus H. Walker came to Portland the city consisted of- 12 shacks and one store. That was in 1848. The pioneers did not sing in Chi nook this time, and only one or two alluded to the banquet served to them as kloshe muck-a-muck. One little great-great-grandchild of a pioneer interested a great number of the old folks by intoning the old Chinook greeting, "Cllhiam six."

Powell Tuesday on a pleas ure ride, and he was so impressed with the U. B. Curtis 105-acre farm that he entered into negotiations for it at once. The purchase price is $37,000 cash. Mr. Curtis has been specializing on Hoistein and Jersey dairy cattle. MATERNITY AS THE HOURS PASS THE COMING OF BABY DRAWS NEARER ,A ' ARE YOU 1 is natural to think influence upon the her habits, her hygiene, of her mind, all have a part in determining the well-being or ill-being of her infant before birth i - Nov one can be in doubt that the months which pre cede birth are of vast importance for the future of the child. It is therefore necessary that the expectant mother prepare herself. Mother's Friend gives comfort to expectant mothersby softening and making elastic the muscles dur ing the anxious months before maternity. THREE GENERATIONS of mothers record the virtue of Mother's Friend for not only allaying distress in advance, but for assisting nature ia assuring a speedy recovery for the mother. It renders the abdominal muscles pliant as they readily yield to nature's demand for expansion. As a result, the nerves should not be drawn upon with that peculiar wrenching strain.

PIONEER YEAlnS FOR LAST "INJUN" SCALP Old Oregonians Boast of Deeds of Early Days. 'AULD LANG SYNE'TEARFUL Frederick Holnian Tells of found ing of Portland While All Vie in Checking Details. There was just one pathetic long ing expressed by Colonel Robert A. Miller, 1852. when he opened the an nual campfire of the Oregon Pioneer association at the auditorium last night. "Oh, if we could only kill an Injun, so we could start this thing right," he moiined. And to judge by the way the pio neers applauded, the life of a "red" would have been hazardous in the ex treme, for ex-Governor T. T. Geer, 1851, asserted: "It wouldn't be the first time I've done it, anyway." Reminiscences Brlnp; Interest. The evening was devoted to the reminiscences of the 40s and 50s. with occasionally a few musical se lections by the poineers themselves. Incidentally, they sang half a dozen hymns. It probably would amaze many a Portland minister to have heard the manner in which H00 or 700 pioneers were word perfect in the sacred songs. They sang "Corona tion" through from start to finish, made the very rafters if there had been rafters echo with "Greenland's Icy Mountains," "Onward, Christian Soldiers" and others not nearly so well known. And, Htanding together, they sobbed out "Auld Lang. Syne." It would hard ly be correct to say they sang it, for one after another broke down, old faces literally streaming tears as the old melody recalled friends who had passed over before them. CaufielU Keiv President. But first the pioneers elected their officers. C. H. Caufield, 1854, Oregon City, succeeds President liunsaker as president. Miss Ellen Chamberlain, 1S54. was elected vice-president, and George H. Himee, 1853. of course, was re-elected secretary. And what a rousing cheer they gave Pioneer Himes. Directors elected were John V. Baker. 1853: J. D. Chitwood. 1S59; -Mrs. O. N. Denny. 1847. and William M. f.add. 1855. was elected ewidgnt. Governor (ieer pinned on the breast-j-oi of ex -president Hunsaker the gor geous badge that signified he had berome an ex-president. Then Colonel Miller told them that three pioneer picnic reunions had al ready been scheduled as follows: Salem, July 3 and Douglas coun'y July 4. both at Peninsula park and L.inn July 9 at Laurelhurst. I. Inn Calves Dare. Free coffee was promised at all three, but after l.inn county peopie announced from the floor that cream and sugar would be included in their free offering to visitors, why, the others simply .had to meet the im plied "dare." Frederick V. Holman. 1852, past president, told the pioneers the story of the founding of Portland. He hail to be on his-watch for every pioneer o them all was just itching to cor rect him in dates. One tried it, too, but Pioneer Holman was more than a match for him. The only detail of which Mr. Holman was not quite certain was whethi-r Asa I.. Lovejoy and F. V. Pettygrove tossed a cop- be Boston or Portland, Or. But the old-timers agreed that, after all, it was not important and Mr. -Holman let it go at that. Third Street Was Suburb. Mr. Holman told of his early subur ban home away out in the suburbs it was. he said, and he felt quite ashamed of the fact ti:at it was so far out. The exact address was Third and Washington streets. This year m.irks the 75tli anniver sary of the founding of the city and he remarked that the finest belt of timber in Oregon was the "site on which the west side of. the city now stands. M. J.

He told the story, familiar in some form or another to hundreds, of how he had crossed the plains, swam across the Snake, formed a ferry with six wagon beds end forced the oxen to swimacross. Of course, they tought Indians in his party. Himes Miotts Slides. George H. Himes showed some his toric lantern slides he had prepared of early history and he contrasted them with modern day scenes. There were a number of brief talks of the days gone by by various per sons in the audience. The veterans' quartet sang and the old fiddlers, George" Pulley and Bill Pardin, played. And as the final dramatic touch to the camp fire. Oregon's first organist, Mrs. Maria Campbell Smith, 1841, played on the great auditorium organ "Sweet By and By." which the old pioneers happily sang.
