(Special to The Jourmt)
Eugene, Or., March 22, The new
Methodist church of Eugene will be
dedioated tomorrow. The congregation
has been, preparing for this event for
many months, and they have formulated
a program that will be full of Interest
and will differ materially from the ordi
nary dedication program. One feature
of the services will be the absence ef
collecting money to pay the debt In
curred in erecting the structure. The
money has all been raised by subscrip

ing will be dedicated without a cent of
Indebtedness hanging over it
The services begin tomorrow at S:20

school. The services of the dedication
will begin at 10:45 o'clock. Bishop 3.

Chamber of Commerce Visited
by
More -Than 50 New
comers In Oregon.
The permanent exhibit of Oregon's
resources and information bureau of
the Portland Chamber of Commerce pre
sents a very busy appearance. Yester
day morning over fifty homeseekers ex
amined the exhibits and secured In
formation about Oregon. These came
here on account of the low rates for
colonists and appear to be very well
satisfied with their change. Most of
them come from the Middle West The
state of Minnesota is especially well
represented. Nebraska and Montana
have also furnished their share to the
future population of Oregon. There are
also aulte a few people from the state
of New York, who have come here look
ing for homes.
In going, through the exhibit the col
onists show especial interest in the dry
farming of Central Oregon. The display
Of Tillman Reuter, showing the grains
produced near Madras, stimulated a
great deal of questioning regarding the
procens used in dry farming. Many of
the colonists are wheat growers in the
Middle West; and expressed themselves
as highly pleased with the wheat, bar
ley and oats raised in this section.
The majority of the colonists have
sold everything in their former homes
and have brought their families with
them, Intending to settle as- soon as a
proper location is secured These have
practically decided on the locality where
their future homes are to be before
coming here. While In Portland they
are making the necessary purchases for
their new homes. Although the Weather
which greeted them on their arrival is
not the usual Oregon variety, still it
appeals to them. -'
Both of the men on the floor of the
exhibit were kept busy answering a
multitude of questions and the, serv
ices of the secretary and the regular
Office force were required to take care
oi every one of the inauirers.
Interested visitors to the Chamber of
Commerce exhibit in the afternoon were
a group or stuaents of the. Oregon Agrl
