An organization composed of the
sons and daughters of Oregon pio

mothers of the state, waa proposed
today by Attorney Dexter Rice, In
an addreaa before the former stu
dents of the old I'miHiua Academy,
in their annual reunion at Wilbur.
Mr. Rice stated that be has been
working on plans for this project
for a long time and that he expects
In the near future to undertake per
sonally to put the plan Into execu
tion.- Hia announcement waa greet
ed with great enthusiasm wnd will
no doubt meet with a ready re
sponse throughout the state.
The plan was suggested In the
close of one of the finest addresses
ever heard at the annual reunion.
The speaker opened with a hum
orous mention of the rules and reg
ulations of the old pioneer school,
recounting some of the amusing in
cldenta of the early days of that in
stitution, which was very strict In
discipline and rules of conduct
He then branched Into a history
of the schools of the state, show
ing how the schools were first
founded, touching on the plan of
Hon. J. Qulnn Thornton for the
school land system, which haa been
followed In Oregon for many years.
He brought out the fact that the
Oregon school system In the early
beginning was largely sponsored by
religious organisations, and thnt
private schools were among the
best schools of the state. He touch
ed on the defeat of the Oregon pub
lic school law In this connection,
showing that the early school laws
specified that no distinction was to
be made because of creed.
Mr. Rice paid a touching tribute
to the builders of the psst, using
the well known poem, "The Build

He then turned to the responsi
