Interest In Oregon under the

M rs. C la ric e Hopkins, left the
Port O rford Grade School at
3:45 a.m. last Thursday.
T h e ir firs t stop was at the
State School for the Deaf and

M arlon Motel Hotel In Salem.
The flra t special trip on this
afternoon was to Champoeg
where they visited the Robert
Newell Home and the museum
and saw the m em orials of the
beginning of state government
In Oregon.
A banquet In the beautiful
Gold Room of the Marlon Motor
Hotel at 0:30 p.m. was a most
outstanding
experience. The
group from Port Orford p re ­
sented a program of Oregon
History and symbols of gov­
ernments, Including the state
song and preamble to the Con­
stitution of the United Stales;
every member of the group

sole, chief capitol guide, and
the daughter and son-in-law of
M rs . Hopkins who were her
special guests.
At 9 o’clock the class was
taken to the Eastwood Lanes for
bowling and at 10:15 went back
to the capltcl building to take
flash camera shots of the light­
ed capitol dome. Then It was
showers and bed, with lights
out ai 11 p.m.
At 6:15 a.m ., F riday, It was
“ rlse awl shine” , with break­
fast and check-out of the hotel
following. The return trip to
the capitol and t h e planned
camera shots were very much
hampered by the downpour of
rain which had been almost
continuous on the entire trip ,
but they were taken Into the
Laws 01 Oiler
And Acceptance
Smith owned a set of books
which caught the fancy of
Brown. Brown wrote Smith a
le tte r In which he o ffer«!S m ith
$200 for the set of books.
Six months passed with no
response by Smith. Brown lo ­
cated another s im ila r set of
the books which he purchased.
A week later he received a
le tte r from Smith, saying “ I
accept your of(er of $200 fpr
the set of books?’
When Brown Informed Smith
that he had purchased thebooks
elsewhere and did not want to
purchase Smith’ s, Smith re­
fused to release Brown, c la im ­
ing that a contract had been
made by his acceptance of
Brown’ s offer.
Was there a contract? The
answer Is ’ ’no.” There are
various ways that an offer may
be term inated. The person ma­
king the offer may withdraw it
o r he may die, or the other
party may reject the o f f e r
eith er directly o r by a counter
o ffer.
An offer may also be term ­
inated by lapse of tim e. That Is
what happened here. Smith’s
failu re to accept Brown’ s offer
within a reasonable tim e te rm ­
inated the offer as effectively
as though Brown had withdrawn
the offer specifically.
