lures 01 the valley. She tells of. the wagon train trip early
in ivo& worn lowa to Oregon and a day's stop, in the Indian
village of La Grande so known to the guides and trappers.
She says, in part: - .
, "We laid over one day in the Grande Ronde
. valley at a place the mountain men and trappers
,'called La Grande. It was only an Indian village. ,
I don't remember seeing a single white person
there. In fact, I think no white people settled at
.La Grande till along about the time of the Civil
iwar. While we laid over at La Grande, Mrs. John
fMacDonnld gave birth to a little girl, whom she
"named La Grande."
; A drive out over the Ginnd6 Ronde valley today would:
givej- the pioneer woman who first viewed it seventy-five
yeurs ago a far different picture. Tho mountain peaks.
fne timber-clad slopes, the wonderful atmospheric effects
thiil are peculiarly beautiful to the valley only these would
thetfind unchanged. The wheat fields, the alfulfa, the
orchards permanent highways, speeding automobiles, mod
ern towns and cities with their appropriate signs of twenti
eth century civilization these would but indicate the
changes that huve taken place in the simui of but a sinirle
life in Oregon.
And tho seventy-five years that are to come in the
year 2000 will some present-day flapper be interviewed in
her easy chair, with great-grandchildren playing near, for
her impressions of the Grande Ronde valley in the "early
days" of '2G? We hope so. And we hope as her strange
tale is read by a new generation, as it is discussed and
marvelled at us the youth of today marvel at the story of
La Grande as an Indian villniro in '52. that It mv
an equal inspiration to their hearts and minds to accomp
lish the unusual and to. pioneer anew even in the strange
activities of a future civilization that cannot be foretold.
