THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 21. 1S20. SCHAFER LEAVES U. FRIDAY FOR NEW EASTERNPOSiTION Head of History Department for 20 Years; to Direct Wisconsin State Historical Society Work. University of Oregon, Eugene, March 20, l am leaving the Unl--verslty of . Oregon with a feeling of the deepest gratitude to all of my associates, to the president for his unfailing courtesy and kindness and his- aolicitou care for my interests Mid those of my family," said Dr. Joseph Schafer, head of the depart ment of history of the university, who Is leaving Friday, March 26, after 20 years' service with the' uni versity, Co take a position as super intendent of the "Wisconsin State Historical society. i Dr. Schafer entered the University of Cregon in 1900 as Instructor tn the history department and has been asso ciated with that department since that time. HAS VflJJE ACQUAINTANCE ; "In my career here it has been my good fortune to travel considerably over-the state for the purpose of lec turing in various communities and In consequence my acquaintanceship with the Oregon people is rather extensive. I 7'ant to say In leaving them that I do so with regret, because in my opinion the people of this state constitute a so ciety that will compare very favorably with what is to be found in any state of the union. For one thing, the people of Oregon are more homogeneous in character than those of most of the other states. Besides, there ts a high general average of Intelligence and a prevalent idealism which is peculiarly grateful to one who is interested as I have always been In social improve ment. I have ' been in-thorough sym - pa thy with the same efforts made in this state in the direction of progres sive legislation for the amelioration of octal conditions where these have been untoward ; and I sincerely hope that this progress is not to be followed with reaction, but ts to he continuous, though strictly evolutionary and not revolutionary. ."To an educator it seems clear that the beet guarantee of a sound social development will lie In tjie proper sup port of both elementary and higher education. Oregon, for certain reasons not necessarily reflecting ipon the character of the population, has been backward in her educational develop ment. The opportunity will be afforded at the coming election to do away with existing deficiencies and to put our educational Interests on a financial footing equal to those of most of the states of the union. It would be a great disappointment to me, indeed, if the people should fall to rise to this 'Opportunity, and I do not believe that 'they will fall. vCAME 15 OK OREGON TRAIL "I came to Oregon 20 years ago, enter- ing the. state along the line of the old Oregon trail, which Professor Young arid I traversed partly on foot an&sarOy awheel. In consequence, I have, from the first been deeply .interested' In the history of Oregon and the Pacific Iorth west. Five ears after my arrivaV Rav ing devoted all my spare time and my summers in the meantime to the. prob lem, I published the first edition of my book. A History of the Pacific Northwest." This, however, . was only the beginning of my study of the his tory of the region which has been car ried on continually down to the present time. During the year 1907-08 I was given leave of absence for the purposes of study and research abroad Most of my time was spent In London, where, through the courtesies of the Britlfsh foreign office I was given access to fhe manuscript, documents relating to the Oregon boundry question. This study enabled me to rewrite definitively the history of the Oregon boundary dispute which heretofore had been treated solely Trom the American point of view. The . later edition. 1918, of my history of the Pacific northwest therefore contains a wholly new treatment of the Oregon question. "The history of this region has seemed to me vastly 'more interesting then the history of any other of the newer sec tions of the United 'States, with the possible exception of California, in which I have done work. It has always been gratifying to know that Oregon has a historical society whose creator, Mr. George H. Hlmes, is eagerly searching out collections of documentary material far careful preservation with reference to later historic production and which has also for 20 years actively promoted his torical research by publishing Its quar terly, now edited by Professor K. G. Young, of the university. SEEKS RESEARCH WORK "But there is one opportunity which I crave above most others that la denied me In the circumstances of our univer sity, namely, the opportunity to pursue lines of productive research In connec tion, with my teaching. I have. Indeed, done considerable research work since ring to Oregon, built has been done dd times during the school terms. In summers, and by taking an occasional year off on part salary. "I have now reached the middle period of life, and having an ambition to de vote a considerable portion of time for the next quarter century to productive scholarship, I have reluctantly come to the conclusion that It will be necessary SHEEP DIP Fine for the Hair and Scalp Tbouundi of propls are ffeotd with disfUfd loilp, causing dandruff, itching scalp and falling hair.

"It may be a matter of Interest to some readers to know something of the plans, hopes and expectations with which I return to Wisconsin In the ca pacity of superintendent of the Wiscon sin Historical society, I am looking for ward to the development of the recent history of the etateT through the organ. ization of local societies on the basis of the schools, the accamulatlon of vast new masses of documentary material not hitherto considered of great historical value, the classification and editing of this material, and ultimately the writing or a comprehensive history of the state. Dr. Schafer was graduated from the University of Wisconsin, receiving de grees of B. U In 1894, M, A. In 1899, Fellow In 1900 and Ph.D. In 1908. He has been with the university since 1900 ana since that time has held the ooei tion of dean of the summer school from 1902 until 1908. when he resigned the deanshlp In order to devote more time to his research work. He was prevented from doing this, however, by the heaw influx of students and the inability of the university to provide more Instructors. To Dr. Schafer also Is given the honor of having founded the Portland center of the university extension division In wis. Three books have been written by Dr. Schafer,, most of Importance is generally conceded to be "Origin of the System of Land Grants for Education," written In 1902. Others are, "History of Pacific Slope and Alaska," written in 1905 ; "The Acquisition of Oregon Territory," 1918. Dr. Schafer is also a member of the Oregon Historical society, the American Historical association and the Wisconsin Historical society.
