TCRTLAND, Ore., June 6 (Specinl)
Plans are bolng made already for
tho Beaver Centennial world'a exposi
tlcn of 1930, to be held in Portland.
Tho colebrntion is to commemorate
tho 100th anniversary of the arrivol
of the first twp American white wom
en (Mrs. Narclssa Whitman and Mrs.
Eliza Spalding) to cross the plains
and Rocky mountains Into the Pa
cific Northwest, also the arrival of
the first steamship (the Beavor) to
come up the Columbia river. The
Beavor holds the distinction, also, of
being tho first steamship to cross tho
Atlantic ocean, steam around Capo
Horn, and then visit the Pacific coast,
; Under the fair program, tho main
Centennial grounds, wherever they
may be located, will act, In effect,
the same as an Index to a book.
Every county of tho throe states of
Oregon. Washington and Idaho would
havo Its own county fair with de
tailed exhibits, but tho main Cen
tennial would havo enough exhibits
of ench county so arranged in display
ani to interest every Individual who
may come to the fair, and through
'fo-svlslt the various counties with the
. .ni .,i i wi,.
ington or Idaho permanently.' '"wSm ' J. Sharp, of La Grande,

Nora saw Jon'B expression,
nniunod, skeptical, but drawn Into
tho circle ot her father's willful

to this strango fascinating man.
Julian demolished tho chicken,
finished tho last biscuit on tho plate,

Fergus smiled at her. "I think your

It was llko a sudden handclasp,
and she understood for the first time

Jon was Btsndlng up now and be
told her easily that he had to go.
Nora watched him saying good-by
to Aunt Km, telling her how he had
enjoyed tho dinner party. As Jon
said good-by she seemed' to catch
a fleeting glimpse , ot- her father
through Jon's eyes. A battered old
showman not to bo taken seriously.
