Nov. SO. Members of "' the North Plains Presbyterian church at yl North Plains celebrated the fortieth an ' niversary of lie organization of the church Sunday with appropriate exer cises. A historical review of the church U given by the pastor, Kev. Andrew Oairick. This church was ortanlzuil With 12 charter members, only two of whom are now living, Mrs. Sarah M. Smith of Portland and John Milne of 'Hlilsboro. Both were present at the ercises Sunday. rf for the first three years after the , organization of this church meeting ere held in the Columbia academy. At ' (he end of that time-the membership had 'grown sufficiently large so that funds could be raised to erect a church llflee, and this building is still in use. - i. Fr6!i the parent church at North UlttlilS a number of church organization' have sprung, thei now being one at , South- Tualatin, Buxton. Forest Uale, ' Orenco and Reedville, respectively. The ? first pastor of tfie North Plains church was Rev. George Ross. j1 Another church organisation that : dales even farther back than the North . Plains church is that of the Uaptlst church at West Union. This church was r organised in 1843, when there weruly , S baker's dosen of white people in Washington county. It is the oldest organisation of the Baptist denomina tion west of the Missouri , river. For seme years services were held in a log cabin, tout in the early fifties a frame ' structure was built, and it is still stand- "" Inf."- When the building was erected the church was reorganised. Of this reorganization there are now 1 1 ui n s onlj fouY members, so far as is known. They ar Zina Wood, Mrs. Mildred Connell and Zina Wood Jr. of Hlilsboro, and . George Armentrout of Forest Grove. The Journal of tills church giving a recume of its history for the first 10 years of its organization is now in the possession of David Lennox of Rose- ' burg, son of one of Washington county's " earliest pioneers. A second Journal was kept as long a- the church was active, and this is now In the possession of a Hlilsboro resident. It contains a copy I of tile first record, and the man who has it considers it one of tht most val uable records from a historical stand point, in Oregpn. He will have it bound and present it to the Oregon Historical society. GRADUATING CLASS OF JEFFERSON HIGH .

Wood objected to it be- cause It provided for special procedure, saytnsr that a committee snouis oe un fettered la drafting such a bill. Bert E. Haney pleaded ,that the .resolution be passed, that the car association might be put-in a right light; Colonel '" V. V. Holman seconded Mr. Wood's ear lier statement. ' George 8. fihepherd bobbed up with another amendment, to which Colonel t ood objected, saying: ''So Important a provision should go to a committee of high standing, In order to get as perfect a bill as possible." ThtlebatediJ not "wax fervid, or, rather, perfervld, until Gus Moser took the floor, and, in ringing accents, re sented, the resolution ai a reflection on the state Judiciary. "Itis a reflection on the Judiciary of today," ho protested. 'If. It had been, offered 15 years ago, when we had the convention system, I Should have been In favor of It. ' Wbst Is the meaning of this word non-partisanr Does anyone mean to Insinuate that our Judiciary is partisan la its decisions? Under the present sys ' tsm of law in Oregon, men must com pete In open field to get the nomination. This resolution is introduced for ths benefit of the minority. Let us not be carried away by this idea of a non-partisan Judiciary. , I am surprised that the members of the bar should take it tup." , "The judlc!aryhould be taken out "f ttolittcs altogether," said Colonel Wood. "'Meha'Ko'thr'TOkrtii-Hyr-mi' nees, and go to the polls asking an the assistance that can come from party fervor and party faith. A non-purtis..ji Judiciary would produce a better and abler Judiciary." ; W, M. Davis, the father of the origi nal resolution, was next on the floor, saying: . "I would like to see this or ganization loosen up; let us start out f a b-; Sjr 4.vhSiz ' f ill VISITOR" AT ALBANY Willi the final efforts of nractlVi completed, the members of the Febru ary graduating class of Jefferson hign- school, who are to present 'When a Man's Single" tomorrow and Katurddy evenings, arc looking forward with an ticipation for the rise of the curtain. For the past month the students have been practicing faithfully each evening after school In order tliut the produc tion shall prove successful. In the first act of the play the plot is laid. Kleanor Horton, a fanner' daughter, falls heir to a fortune, and as a result becomes the object of the? attentions of Paul Briscoe, a New York lawyer, who needs the money. The lat ter goes to visit the Hortons on their farm, which is a typical New York state place. Fred Packwood, as Pete Adams, u country bachelor, and Harold Melendy, as Jim Horton, a rustic widower, ate t:ie laugh producers. Kllzabeth Knight as Norah O'Noil, the Irish maid, and Wilnia Dittrich, as Kleanor Horton, thu heiress and daughter of Jim, display talent in their interpretations of their parts. The second act of the play shifts tho scene, to Newport, where Paul Briscoe Top Actors in gle." Bottom VVilma lady. 'When a Mao's Sin- Dlttrich, leading shows his true nature and Ingeniously secures Eleanor's consent to their en gagement. David Griff's portrayal of tills character is commendable and shows careful preparation. Elsie Kline and be progressive." Again George S. Shepherd bobbed up with an amend ment. Former Senator Charles W. Ful ton took up the debate at this point, re peating the affirmation that the resolu tion was a reflection on the Judiciary of the state and eulogizing government by political parties. Richard W. Mon tague denied this. Hams sad Beputation Enough. Others Who spoke were R. R. Dunl way and Judge Davis, who said: "I be lleve a Judge is Judge of all the people; I believe nothing but his name and rep utation should stand after his name." W. C. Bristol, Robert T. Piatt, W. P. LaRoehe nd W. T. Slater also spoke. The resolution as it now stands is emasculated of all the provisions of the original resolution and of the Reames substitute and commits the Bar asso ciation to favoring the general princi ple of non - partisan Judiciary and nothing' more. "It is undoubtedly satib factory in a measure to its opponents for this reason. The election of officers came late In the afternoon, with United States Dis trict Judge Robert 8, Bean as the choici for president. Bert E. Haney was chosen secretary, and Charles J. Schna- bel, treasurer, for his twentieth consec utlve term. "I make no promise for ad ministration," sakl Judge &ean, "except that it shall be non-partisan." Officers Are Selected, Other officers elected were: Executive committee Oscar Hayter, J. N. Teal, Albirt B. Ridgway. W. M Davis, R. A. Leiter, W. T. Slater and R. w. Montague. y Vice president.

An amendment for section 4, arti cle 4, of the constitution of Oregon, proposed by Senator Mulkey, was re ferred to u. committee. Final adjourn ment was taken at 5 o'clock. The meet ing begun Tuesday. If a man has no end In view. It la easy to see his finish. as Mrs. Briscoe and Elsie Brsun if Evelyn Briscoe give good representa tions of the modern society woman and her daughter. The last act unravels the tangles of the situation. In it Jim escapes from the designing charms of Mrs. Briscoe and remains a contented widower. His feeling over this termination of the matter Is well expressed by the words of his friend Pete: "Marriage Is all. right for girls, but boys, take my ad vice."

Here s what she says: "About a year ago I was down with a very heavy cold and I had a bad pain under my shoulder blades. I was under the care of different doctors, but did not improve. 1 was so weak 1 could hardly stand, and I could n:t keep anything on my stomach. A druggist near where 1 hvexl advised taking a table spoonful of DuffyTi Pure Malt whiskey with an egg in milk before meals, and after fol lowing his advice I found that I could eat; I overcame my weakness, and gradually gained in weight. 1 believe that Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey as a tonic for rundown people is a great thing, and I recommend It to my many friends in Brooklyn and New York.
