Legionnaires Annual Show The annual American Legion minstrel show will be presented early in May, according to a de- cision made at the meeting of the Hillsboro post Tuesday evening. Jack Murton, chairman of the ac tivities committee, reported that L. Carroll Day, experienced Port land diiector and musician, would direct the show. A representative of the legion will meet with other represent atives of patriotic organizations and the board of directors of the chamber of commerce to make suitable arrangements for patri otic exercises at the Fourth of July celebration.

The necessity for the proper display of the American flag at school houses and public places was brought out by a number of speakers. One speaker said that as a matter of education to the public the raising and lowering of the flag in these places should be a matter of ceremony. Carl Carlson was presented with a gold American Legion pin by Commander W. H. Dierdorff for bringing in the greatest num ber of new members by April i. Unidentified Man Dies In Beaverton An unidentified man, about 75 years of age, dropped dead in Heaverton about noon Wednes day, according to Coroner F. J. Sewell, who was called to the scene. The coroner said the man had met a stranger and they got a ride out to Beaverton, where shortly after stepping out of the car he dropped dead. There were no papers on the man’s body to help in the identi fication, Mr. Sewell said. He described the man as being about 140 pounds in weight, 5 feet 5 inches in height and as having chin whiskers and mustache. phone equipment, which Hhould be here and installed by May 1, ac cording to Manager O. Phelps. The "talkie” equipment was shipped from New York April 4. Seven tons of concrete were used to make the ojieruting room free of vibration. The stage is being equipped with a sound mo tion picture screen at a cost of more than $400 and the audi torium is being redraped and aisle carpets laid to correct any pon- xible acoustic defects. The machine to be installed here is one of the finest to be brought to the state and will ac- commodate a house with a seat- ing capacity of 4000.

E. A. I*rice, district manager, and Mr. Holbrook of the company met with the Hillsboro Radio club Tuesday evening at the home of 8. W. Bentley for the purpose of testing tho new tub«' set recently installed at KEK. The test was very gratifying to members of the club, as the station does not in terfere with radio reception to any marked degree. There is one harmonic, at 200 meters and one at 350 n^eters, neither interfering with broadcasting. Mr. 1’rice promised to do his best to tcap out these harmonics and to eliminate as much of the arc mushJas possible, which comes in on low wave lengths. The cteib wishes to thank the telephony company for its cour tesy in ‘ allowing a four-phone hookup for testing purposes. > —————— A, R.

Masters One of Fir»t White Children Funeral On Sunday Pioneer Son Born Near Orenco In *45; Lived Most of Life Here. John W. Masters, 84, one of the first white children born in the Oregon country, died at his home at First and Baseline streets early this morning, after an ex tended illness. Funeral services will be held Sunday at 2 p. m. from the Donelson & Sewell chapel, with the Rev. H. A. Deck officiating, Interment will be in the I. O. O. F. cemetery. The pioneer son was born near the present town of Orenco March 5, 1845, son of the late A. J. and Sarah J. Masters. All of his life had been spent in Washington county. He is survived by a sis ter, Mrs. Mary E. Lystrop, and a brother, William E. Masters, both of Hillsboro. Mr. Masters’ parents crossed the plains in 1843 in the first overland wagon train that came to the territory. In 1847 the family took a donation land claim at Reedville. where they built a cabin and began pioneer life. The discovery of gold in 1849 took them overland to California, where they engaged in tavern keeping at Suttersville until the fall of 1850, when they returned to Oregon by boat and were ship wrecked at Astoria. His father died in 1856, and prior to that time J. W. Masters was educated near Farmington. After that he worked on the farm until he be came of age and then he pur chased 280 acres of land adjoin ing and soon after married Miss Clarinda Harris of North Yamhill. They resided on the farm until 1888, when Mr. Masters sold out and they moved to Hillsboro. Mrs. Masters preceded her hus band in death. Mr. Masters built the home at Fair Acres, in South Hillsboro, and made his home there for years after he moved to Hills boro, later selling that place and buying the present Masters’ home at First and Baseline streets. Speaker Asks Fairness For History Work Fairness in the study of his tory was urged in an address be fore the Washington County ~ Teachers’ association at Beaver- ton Saturday by S. S. Duncan, Yamhill county school superin- tendent. He alluded to the mis- take made in cultivating hatred toward the British on account of the Revolutionary war. One of the great objects of history is to bring about better understand ings, he said. N. A. Frost, superintendent of schools for this county, said teachers in the last phase of the school year should guard against doing too much talking them selves and give the pupil every opportunity’ to recite. The final estimate of the success of a year’s work, Mr. Frost declared, may be judged by the courage and ambi tion inspired in the children. Dr. O. H. Holmes of Forest Grove gave a review of George Elliott's character, "Tito.” Mrs. Ruby Shearer Brennan, assistant superintendent of Multnomah county, was in charge of the round-table discussion on inter mediate and rural. Superintend ent I. R. Metzler had the high schools and Mrs. C. E. Barker the primary discussion. Mrs. Josephine Case was sel ected as a delegate from the local association to attend the meeting of the Inland Empire Education association at Spokane, Wash., April 10, 11 and 12. Members of the program com- mittee were E. G. Webb, Mrs. Ida Hornecker, Mrs. M. C. Case and Miss Leone Graham.

The county fair premium list occupied the attention of the board and the division superin tendents in session at the office of N. A. Frost, county school su perintendent, Monday evening. Slight alterations were made in the rules. The showing of dairy cattle and definite ruling as to the abortion test were considered and Presi dent C. D. Minton was instructed to confer with Dr. W. B. Coon, Forest Grove veterinarian, before final arrangements are made. It was decided to allow ex hibits from outside the county in every line except boys’ and girls’ club work. The board said thumbs down on the holding of another dog show in connection with the fair. Mrs. George Mendel of Beaver- ton was named to succeed Mrs. Ruby Boy as one of the division superintendents.

Manufacturers* Leader On Luncheon Program Hare Speaks Monday State Should Become Indus trially Minded Now, Says Portlander. That more industries in Oregon would solve the farm market problem was the opinion ex- pressed by Dan C. Freeman, man ager of the Oregon Manufac turers’ association, in an address before the members of the cham ber of commerce Monday noon. W. W. Boscow was chairman. Aiks Fair Shake A fair division of business for the Oregon manufacturer was asked by Mr. Freeman, who said that business men should give the Oregon industry payroll the ad vantage, everything being equal. J If 20 per cent of the business 1 was given Oregon manufacturers I the state would be much more 1 prosperous and there would be I more people to buy products of the farm and other lines. The association, the speaker pointed out, is an outgrowth of the home industry idea.

Bernards Takes Oregon Nursery Land Teachers Sign Up For Coming Year = Hillsboro Of Years Ago Recalled At Rotary Meet; Use Old Court House For Museum, Urged In Talk by Cady The Hillsboro of 20, 30, 40 and 50 years ago was recalled in a reminiscent program of the Ro tary club luncheon Thursday. Dr. Charles A. Lamkin, W. W. Bos- cow and M. P. Cady were the speakers and G. V. Payne was chairman. The program was pre- pared by Mr. Payne in observ ance of the eighteenth anniver- sary of his coming to Hillsboro with the Pharmacy. The Pharmacy owner said the store was first started in 1873. E. L. McCormick, he said, at one time operated a bicycle shop where the present store is now lo cated. The time when there were only five house north of Jackson street and no brick buildings except the court house was recalled by Dr. Lamkin. He said he first went to school in a four-room building on the corner where a service sta tion is at Third and Baseline streets. The first boom in this county was when the railroad to Astoria through Hillsboro was projected. More attention should be paid to honoring the memory of those pioneers that made this country possible. Dr. Lamkin declared. Mr. Boscow said that he moved here with his parents from a farm northeast of town in ’75 and started to school. There are only five or six houses standing now that were built when he came here. Everything west and east of the present location of the Cady garage was brush and trees. He recalled that when he was on the home place there were many Indians. “You could shoot a gun down Second street in Hillsboro at one time without hitting anyone,” as serted former Mayor Cady, who first came to the county in ’92. He expressed the opinion that it would be a fine thing if the old court house could be preserved and moved some place where it could be used for a museum. Interesting pictures of early events and residents of the city and county were shown. Willis L. Cady of Beaverton sang several numbers arranged by R. B. Denney, who had the five- minute program.
