"ON FAME'S ETERNAL CAMPING GROUND THEIR SILENT TENTS ARE SPREAD" On Tuesday next the Nation will do rev erence to its soldier dead. This Memorial Day will witness anew the marching of the war-scarred veterans of '61 together with the younger columns, of those who survive the service in Cuba, the Philippines, Chat eau Thierry, Belleau Wood, St. Mihiel, the Argonne and other fields of danger and en durance. A11 were responsive to their country's need and call. And to them on this Memorial Day special effort should foe put forth to show 'proper appreciation for their sacrifices and efforts. The draped flags, the muffled drums, the measured tread and the offerings of spring's choicest garlands are symbols of respect and reverence for those Who sleep in their narrow tents under the final bivouac. Pa triotic song, and address bear the same purpose-M)utward expression of what the voice and heart would spealT to them. The real reverence, the real' spirit of this day made sacred thru love and sacrifice exists in the hearts of those for whom the heroic loved ones wrought and gave their lives. Let this day be commemorated in the spirit of reverence and thoughtful review of the nation's history her struggles her heroes, her victories, her growth and her problems which may make or mar the glory of her future. The cultivation of unselfish ness and gratitude toward others as ex pressed, in True Memorial service is of highest value to the progress of the individ ual and the nation. Mrs. Martha Beardsley Thompson, who passed away at her home in Gladstone, May 18, was born in Mich igan City, Indiana, August 1, 1889.

Funeral ser vices were held from the Holman & Pace chapel on Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Mrs. Hugh of the Christian Science church officiated. Many beau tiful floral offerings bespoke the es teem in which deceased was held. In terment was in Multnomah cemetery beside her mother, who passed away two years ago. A rarely bright and intuitive in tellect was her birth right. The varied experiences of her life wonderfully developed but never affected her boy ant, loving nature. As a loyal daughter, faithful, wife, and loving mother she always gave more than could be given her. Con stantly she enriched the lives of oth ers for sympathy, love and hope came always with her presence. Cultured and sympathetic she possessed that rare quality of character which re joiced over other's" good fortune. Loved by all, a glad company of "little ones" usually attended her whether gathering the -first spring flowers or on the more prosy trip of daily shopping. Loving hands wrapped her robe about her and covered her over with garlands of lilacs and lilies that she loved so well. And we see her today in robes of immaculate purity that sorrow will never touch. We miss her for we loved her. "Of such is the Kingdom of Heav en." - E. T.

CHANGE QF PACIFIC HIGHWAY ROUTE IS NOW SOUGHT. County Bill for Fifteen Hundred Dollars Held Erroneous By City Fathers Petitions were presented to the Oregon City council at its special meeting on Saturday night, urging '.taboo' on Railroad avenue via Seventh street as the city link of the Pacific Highway. The improveemnt of Fifth street from Main to the viaduct under the railroad was urged. This would mean the Main street route from the bridge to Fifth street and thence the continuation will be over the hill to Canemah. Three objections were pointed out to the railroad avenue route by the petitioners, including Ben Harding, the Hawley Paper Company and the Oregon City Manufacturing Company; (1)" congested traffic at the corner by the elevator on account of abrupt turn; (2) the cost of improvement would have to be borne by the proper ty owners; and (3) the demolition of property would be approximately 145,000. With regard to the Fifth street im provement "it was urged that the work would require but a short time for completion and that it should be commenced very soon. A communication from the county court claiming $1500 due" the county on the improvement of Rosemount road was countered by the city "Fath ers" with the claim that the county owes the city $6000 from budget ap propriations in 1920 and that 'the $1500 should be only $1000 anyway.

PUBLIC UTILITIES CHOIRS ARE OUSTED Kerrigan and McCoy Elect edby Voters As Protest Against Rates PHONE PROBLEM IS UP New Officials Will Enter Upon Duties About June First Phone Rates First Problem a Fred A. Williams and Fred Buchtel were ousted by the voters on election day from their jobs as Public service commissioners of Oregon. In their places the same voters elected T. M. Kerrigan to fill the unexpired term of Williams and Newton McCoy to take the place of Fred Buchtel. Williams was elected from the state at large 1 while Buchtel was the western repre sentative on the commission. - This western division lies west of the Cascade mountains. The change in the personnel of the commission will be made as soon as the vote shall have been officially canvassed and the result formally an nounced by proclamation by the gove ernor. It is expected these require ments will be met soon after June first., Kerrigan's term will expire on De cember 31 next when his successor who will be elected at the November election shall qualify. McCoy is elect ed to serve during the remainder of Buchtel's term which would regularly expire on December 31, 1924 or about one and one half years hence. There is a probability that there will be initiated a measure to be vot ed on at the November election, pro viding 'for the appointment of the members of the commissioners by the governor. If this shall be voted fa vorably, the new members will serve only to December 31, next. As the recall of the present incum bents and the election of Kerrigan and McCoy was chiefly a protest against the use of telephone rates and will be expected to lowed the rates at the earliest possible moment.
