I.N MEMOHIUM.
I wlBh to caBt an evergreen upon
the casket to the memory of our de
parted friend.
Ho wos a pioneer, a settlor of
the Umpn.ua Valley in 1851, and lived
continuously In this community for
nearly 65 years. To those of you
here present who wore born In Ore
gon within the last forty or even
fifty years, or those of you who
came across the continent on a rall
. inoad train within that time can
Bcarcely understand the courage re
quired to niiiko a home at that time
in this country, then so remote
from civilization, nor can you com-
prebend tho toll, hardship and prlva
tlon of early pioneer life In the
Umpn.ua Valley, nor the danger
which encompassed tho pioneer on
every hand, and when I stand at the
gravo of a pioneer I feel like ex
clniming as Is recorded in sacred
history, "Take thy shoes from off
thy feet for the ground whereon
thou standost Is holy ground."
My acquaintance with our de
parted friend dates from 1858
when I as a child between nine and
ten years of ago first came with my
father to this city. Mr. Moore was
our nearest neighbor. Our home
was Just across the street and the
children of the two fnmlllos played
together.
I can recall as though it was hut
yostorday alll of tho residents of
Roseburg at that early date. I as a
child know each of them and can.

who wore here In 18S8 and with

Solomon, the wlso man of sacred
history, said that "a good name Is1
better than groat riches," and It la
true. Our friend has loft to his ,
faithful widow and daughter tho
heritage of a good name, and It Is
a legacy of which they may well
be proud. Through many years of

SCHOOL DESKS
BEING PLACED
.The work of arran.ng for the
commencement of high Bchool classes
Is progressing rapidly and It Is as
sured that school will start not later
than the first of next week. The
first orders of books are now being
received and the remainder will be
here In a few days. The desks foi
the assembly hall are being placed
in the old armory hall and as soon
as canvass arrives with which to
cover the entire floor this room will
be ready for the class.
On account of the floor being used
as a dance floor it is necessary to
cover It with canvass. Although the
management has a covering It was
not quite large enough to cover the
entire space and It was necessary to
send away to obtain the quality of
cloth needed. As soon as this Is re
ceived the seats will be placed.
As the desks can not be fastened
rigidly to the floor the carpenters
have solved the difficulty by fasten
ing them together on long strips of
wood which hold them solid and
keep them from moving about and
yet in no way damage the floor.
The members of the manual train-
In;; department are hard at work
manufacturing typewriting tables foi
the uso of the Commercial depart
ment.
Fifteen tables are needed as all
were destroyed In the fire which
burned the building. Nearly the en
tire manual training class has been
put at this work and the tables aro
being turnjed out at a marvelous
rate of speed.
Class rooms have been arranged
for and as soon as the necessary ma
terials arrive high school will be
again called together to resume it's
courses of study.
