PIONEERS
BRING
SEASON TO END
WITH GAMPFIRE
Men and Women Survivors of
Days of Hardship Gather at
forty-sixth Convention. .
OLD TALES ARE RECOUNTED
E. B. McFariand Chosen Presi-
dent at Annual Electons Old
Secretary Is Retained.
The forty-sixth annual reunion of the
Oregon Pioneers' association has passed
Into history. The convention opening
with a program at 2 o'clock Thursday
afternoon and, continuing until after the
annual "campflre" in the evening, was
one of great interest to the old men and
women who endured the early privations
and hardships which pioneer life in Ore
gon entailed.
The attendance was not as large as
In former years, owing to advancing age
and the Increased railway rates, but
nearly 1000 pioneers and sons and daugh
ters of pioneers gathered in the big Au-
.dltorium yesterday afternoon. The meet
ing was called to order by President
W. H. H. Dufur, 1859, followed by an
Invocation by the chaplain, the Rev. A.
J. JoBlyn, 1S52, of Canby.
Mr. , Blgelow Welcomes Pioneers
C. A. Blgeiow,' acting mayor of Port
land, gave a brief address of welcome
' to the pioneers, which was responded to
by President Dufur in a few -words on
what the pioneers have done for Oregon
and the sacrifices they made to make
the stat what It is now.
The annual address was given by
Judge Fred W. Wilson of The Dalles
son of the late Joseph O. and Mrs. Elis
abeth Millar Wilson, pioneers of 1 851-52.
Since he, himself, was no pioneer, "there
. are no mystic cards of memory to
stretch Into the past and bring again
the scenes and reminiscences of the day
when Oregon was young and the beauty
and freshness of youth were every
where," said the judge, and his address
was made up of incidents of history and
arly events of people and places.
The most touching feature of the pro
gram was the greeting to Mrs. Rebecca
j. uarger, pioneer or 1847, wno was
crowned "Mother Queen of Oregon," at
the reunion In 1917. The feeble old
woman of 92 years was gallantly escort
ed to the stage by a number of pioneers
and given a seat of honor, while the
whole audiet re stood In deference, after
which Robert A. Miller, past president
greeted her thus:
"Jlether Qaeea Is Honored
. "We salute you. Mother Queen of
Oregon, we pioneers of Oregon. We
bow to you, Mother Queen of Oregon
we bow to you because you carry so well
more than 93' years of splendid age. It
Is something to have lived 93 years in
the most wonderful time that this world
ever produced."
, The program was interspersed with
music by Lucien E.? Becker on' the or-,
gan, several, songs by the, veteran quar
tet, compose, of W. M. Morse. Dr. J. E. :
Han, H. W. Mills and j-rofessor Z. M.
Parvln, and a solo by John Claire Mon
teltb, grandson of P. B, Whitman, pio
neer of 1843, and grand nephew of Dr.
Marcua Whitman. -
The following committee on resolu
tions was appointed by President Dufur :
Robert A. Miller, E. B. McFariand and
T. T. Geer,
Officers elected at the business ses
sion held, last evening are : President.
B. McFariand-; vice president, Na
than Berg1; secretary, George H. Hlmes
(re-elected) ; t treasurer. William M.
Ladd; directors, Bruce Wolverton, Wil
liam Galloway and C. H. Caufleld.
Resolutions were adopted thanking
the banquet committee, the city officials
and the newspapers for the welcome
and hospitality shown.
Long before the close of the program
the odor of coffee announced the prepa
rations for the banquet In the basement,
where 16 long tables, decorated wlta
flowers and flags and loaded with ulshes
and platters of appetising viands, await
ed the c-mlng of the pioneers, all the
work of the Women's auxiliary o the
association.
Guided by 'Grand Marshal Nathan H.
Bird and his. assistants, the white-haired
men and wemen, with tottering Etc:w
carefuliy wended their way down the
stairs to the banquet hall where they
were seated at the tables and served hv
granddaughters and great-granddaugh
ters.
The women failed to obtain their full
quota of v.-ar bread, after being promised
60 loaves by the bakers, but resort was
made to corn bread which was just as
satisfactory In these war times. Any
way, the pioneers did not complain.
They had plenty of everything else.
The reception committee consisted of
Mrs. D. P. Thompson, chairman ; Mrs.
Benton Killin, Mrs. Margaret O. Moore,
Mrs. Matthew P. Deady, Mrs. Robert
Porter. Mrs. John D. Biles, Mrs. William
Grooms, Mrs. Nancy A. Jacobs, Mrs. P.
L. Willis and Miss Fanny Holman.
Mrs. Herbert Holman, acting president
of the association, managed the banquet,
and Mrs. John W. Minto was in charge
of the tables.
