Wilbur was one among the seventy from Marion county that took a chance on the lottery ticket drawing to hear President Wilson speak in Portland on the 15 th of September. Mr. Wilbur's ticket is number 475. There were only 70 tickets in the draw from Marion county and Mr. Wilbur is the only one from this section to draw a seat, that we have heard of.

Where I dreamed my dreams by the passing streams that ran between banks of brown; I’d like to drift hack on the tides of content and stroll on a gemstarred beach. In quest of the time when hopes were mine and joy dw elt in my reach; When I visioned a day and a wonderful way when marve lous things should be. When the city’s noise was made of joys that thrilled in the nerves of me. I’d like to go hack to the work and the play and struggle again with the plans That 1 meant should live through the strength Fd give in the labor of my hands; I’d like to sense for a single day the urge and the grim "I will” That forced me through when the joys were few and shadows rimmed the hill. I ’d like to go back on the beaten road that I followed away from home. And linger a while where memories smile in my childhood’s first abode; Where I met each morn with a mood serere and a face that was free from frown. And the birds sang loud from the gray fleece-cloud as they gaily circled down. Oh, tell me, stranger, the road that leads to that village of yesterday! I long to go. hut alas, I know that I cannot find the way!
