ject of Public Statement
. By Governor
lB statement issued yesterday
Governor Olcott urges the peoplo
0ti Oregon to observe the 100th
anniversary of the birth of Gen-
eral U. S. Grant, which Ialls on
April 27. In Uhe statement the
gorernor calls attention to the
fact that General Grant was not
unknown to the Oregon country
prior, to .bis rise to fame, and for
that reason remarks that the date
should be of especial significance
in this state.
'On April 27 of this year the
United States of America will ob
serve the 100th anniversary ot
the birth of General Ulysses Simp
son Grant," says the statement.
'In doing so this nation also will
pay sincere tribute to the Grand
Army bf the Republic, th? rem
nant of that great army so belov
ed by General .Grant. Probably
for the last time we will have the
opportunity of Joining in a na
tlon-wlde celebration Inspired by
Royalty, and love of those men
who now make up the serried
ranxs oi mat grand .old j army
which preserved our democracy
and .its .ideals during' the' most
trying times in our national his
tory.
"To Oregon this commemora
tion of the birthday of General
Grant has a peculiar significance
Grant was not unknown in this!
state and his presence here In his
earlier life is remembered by the
free and prominent use of his
name In the geographical nomen
clature 'of our commonwealth.
I trust that, Oregon will as
sume a leading place among the
states in this celebration. Plans
for the observance of this day
generally In the schools are well
Under way. In each community.
town and city, I urge that appro
priate exercises be held with spe
cial addresses and features pro
per for the occasion.
"The present generation may
'
leM great lessons from the
memory of General Grant, who
as soldier, '.'statesman, author Is
remembered throughout the world
ha from th mmmon
pe0ple and always was one with
them.
"May this day be fittingly ob
served that we may assist In the
perpetuation of . those lessons in
our history which . will keep our

WELL DECEIVED
High School Students Sus
tain Difficult Roles in
Lively Musical Skit
A pleasant comedy with an at
tractive colonial setting. "Paul
Revere" pleased a large audience
which witnessed Its presentation
by the classes of the music de
partment of the high school un
der the direction of Miss Lena
Belle Tartar, last night. Al
though far from a finished pro
duction of the musical comedy,
which Is really a very creditable
entertainment, it offered variety
from the usual comedy-drama
and was fairly well received.
The clever acting of Rita Rem
lngton in the role of Phyllys Fax
ton,. In addition to her solo work
was worth overlooking several
other less creditable musical num
bers. Frances Ward as Molly
Faxton In the leading role, gave
several solos of unusual merit.
Harold Sooolofsky, playing op
posite her In the title role of Past
Revere, did credit to his role, es
pecially in bis acting.
The difficulty of the entire
comedy lay in the fact that the
high school does not have an over
abundance of material in the
school this year, yet they were
attempting a play difficult enough
for players of much more ad
vanced experience. The whole
clearly -represented, however, con
sistent effort on the part of both
director and students, and from
that viewpoint may be deemed a
worthy performance.
The entire cast follows: Paul
Revere, Harold Socolofsky; Molly
Faxton, Frances Word; John Fax-
ton, Verne Math is; Capt. Marks,
Kola McClellen; Lieut. William
Day, William Wright; Dorothy
Faxton, Alice Roth; Phyllis Far
ton, Rita Remington; Sweeney, a

Salmon Seen Struggling
in the La Creole Rive
DALLAS, Or., April 7. (Spe
cial to The Statesman )etaIn
cial to the Statesman) A large
salmon was seen by several Dai-
las residents at the dam on the
LaCreole river in the western
part of the city this week. The
salmon was trying to get over the
dam and go upstream but it was
evidently so worn out by its jour
ney from the ocean that it was too
weak to make the climb and con
tinually fell back into the water.
Salmon are seldom seen in this
stream and this is the second time
that or heard of as being in the
LaCreole by even the oldest res!-
dents as the stream heads in
toward the coast and one of the
peculiarities of the salmon is that
they never turn to a stream that
heads and flows away from the
ocean.
