Robbins Family Reunion Held at Molalla. Pioneers' Descendants Participate la Memorial Service. MOLALLA. Or.. Aug. 12. (Special.) The Jacob and Sarah Rob bins Reunion society, of which L. W. Robbins is president and Mra. Orla Buxton aecretary, held its an nual reunion on the banks of the beautiful Molalla river - July 29. More than 100 persons were pres ent. The programme was exceptionally Interesting. A memorial service conducted by Mrs. Orla Buxton was most impressive. Two sons of Jacob and Sarah Robbins. Levi and Martin, and one daughter, Mrs. Amanda Minerva Loverldge, died in the last year. Those who took part in the memorial service are Vernice Robbins, the Misses Helen - and Grace Rugg, Miss Ofa Adams, Miss Dorothy Pennock, Mrs. Clara E. Robbins and Alvin Benson.' Other features of the programme were an original poem, "Pioneers, by Mrs. Ball, and "Family History." by O. W. Robbins. The family his tory disclosed many entertaining features, both personal and general. The Indiana branch of the Rob bins family had an attendance of more than 1000 persons at a reunion this year. The courage,-, the romance, the thrilling adventures of these pio neers are hard to match in fiction. Jacob and Sarah Robbins, found ers of the Oregon Robbins family, crossed the plains in 1852. They settled first on Salem prairie and later moved to Molalla. A few scenes from Jacob Rob bins' boyhood remind one of the unflinching courage. Indomitable will and romance of a great nation in the making. There was that tragedy which occurred after Jacob's father had immigrated from Ken tucky to Indiana In 1811. In the war of 1812 British subjects were said to have Incited Indians to massacre white settlers. At all events the entire settlement except two families, dtie of which was Jacob Robbins' parents and chil dren, were massacred by the sav ages. In their tragic flight the prowess of the white man was pitted against the savage horde and the white man won. f Jacob was left motherless at the age of S years. A few years later Jacob consulted with his double second cousin and firm friend, Abe Lincoln, as to the best course to pursue. Circumstances incident to pioneer life placed the young lad on his own resources, and of course Lincoln's family was poor and un able to help Jacob except with love and kindness. Jacob Robbins' path led westward. Success crowned his efforts.

Ever sine i bee census was ordered in Goshen-. N. Y., metropolis "of the buzzing honey makers, tender hearted persons have been shudder ing at the thought of the danger assessors-might undergo in plucking each bee from its workroom or den and counting it. But they might as well stop worrying, for W. E. Thorn dyke, who knows-bees from stem to dreaded stern, said today that all the census takers have to do is count the -hives. "Even if they did have to number each bee, it wouldn't be so bad," he said. "Some men could count them one by 6ne and never have to use a mask. Of course, a lot would de pend on whether the bees Were aris tocratic bluebloods, or hybrids. The hybrids are usually the fierce ones. Still, when it comes to getting inti mate with bees, discretion is the betterpart of valor." Girls with prefume and men who use hair . oil, smelly pomades or scented .talcum better get out of the way whenever they see a bee com ing, Mr. Thorndyke says. He has a theory that the little honey-makers just naturally dislike certain odors. When a bee likes an odor It noses right In to gather raw material for its manufacturing plant, but It turns its back on disagreeable smells. And when a bee turns its back, somebody Is liable to experience dis comfiture. ' . j Bees have domestic troubles, too, j and these often put them in a bad' humor. It is to ascertain hw many of the) baby-bees at Gostieif are suf fering from "foul brood," and caus ing worry to their queen and their papa bees that the census was ordered. Foul brood Is something like sum mer complaint among human in fants, but more devastating. It comes from impure food given dur ing the period of incubation. The adult bees are not .bothered by the disease, as they thrive whether the larder contains good food or bad. But when the queen bee -gets sick, then the physical strain of weakness ultimately af fects the whole hive. States biological survey will co-operate with the Chamber of Com merce of this city and the city health bureau to carry orva vigor ous trapping and poisonrng cam paign. The. conclusion has been drawn that proper eradication of rats can rot be accomplished by slaying of the animal, but that persons must insure against their breeding in filthy places by wiaintalnlng sani tary garbage receptacles and build ing rat-proof structures. The rat is known as a carrier of disease and a destroyer of commod ities in warehouses and in trans port.
