its appearance and quickly developed into fatal cancer that
rapidly ate out his life. Nothing in hnman history is" more
pathetic than the Sight of the great soldier -writing: on and
on while suffering agony and trying to keep alive, toy sheer
will power, till he could finish his work. Unable Jonger to
speak in feeble whispers, he would write till exhausted and
then while resting would sit and gaze at the walls of his
room looking into eternity as calm and s unafraid as his
soldiers used to see him when watching the approach of an
enemy battleline, and determining when the 1 moment, for a
counter charge had come. Ky A-,:y'x:.''yS:!:r'-
It is, hoped that our people will pausefor a little time
to pay honor to this plain American, their fellow citizen,
who, a humble clerk in a small store and almost unknown to
next dooreighbors. in March, 1861, had Fort Donaldson
and Shiloh to his credit in twelve months, had added Vicks
burg, Lookout" Mountain and Missionary Ridge the next
year, and in three years was General-in-Chief, of the United
States Army and in command of a million soldiers, closing
in another year the greatest war in world history up to that
time with most honorable peace, and was regarded the great
est general of the century. : : -a

mand captured 222,000 prisoners and 1680 cannon.

of the country- The neUm of
unemployment la-today largely a
matter of vases rather than of
opportunity for work. ; Railway
earnings continue to maintain the
favorable position t which they
hate been developing during the
past' few weeks and the satisfac
tory reception accorded to - new
offerings shows that the : Invest
ment pubUe has apparently reach
ed the conclusion that the future
has '. still better things in store.
Eves in foreign trade, the field
where so much retardation has
occurred, latest figures - point to
a decided and steady improve

be once more becoming a matter
of finance rather ' than of ' demand."
General Ulysses S. Grant was born April 27. 1822. and
died July 23, 1885. He was buried in Riverside Park on the
Hudson, New York City, August 8, 1885, the simple burial
service of the G. A. R. being used at the General's grave, as
it has since been used at -the graves of a million t common
soldiers whom he commanded " v ? r: :". ;
At the same hour of his burial there memorial services
were held in many foreign capitals, the civilized world thus
honoring his memory. 1 ::tv". v ':'"
Of him General Longstreet, whom many good judges
regard the hardest fighter of the South, wrote as follows in
hi3 own reminiscences: "General Grant had cause to be
known as an all-round fighter seldom, if ever, surpassed ;
but the biggest part of him ! was his heart. And as the
world continues to look at and study, the grand combinations
and strategy of General Grant, the higher "will be his reward
as a soldier." ' ' ' I y
A noble mausoleum has been built on the Hudson river,
where, side by side, repose the bodies of the General and
his wife. Over ,the entrance i are inscribed "hi3 own words,
"Let us have peace." J - -y ':
The one hundredth birthday of General Grant will be
observed by the American people on Thursday, April 27, and
the good people, of Salem and vicinity are urged to unite with
tha G. A. R. and other soldier organizations and their aux
iliary societies in appropriate services tox be held in the
Armory at 2:30 p. m. 'y, "
Chief Justice ' Hon. Georee H. Burnett of the Oregon
Supreme Court wilfdeliver the memorial address. . Governor
Ben W. Olcott will act as chairman, and patriotic jsongs 'will
be sung by the audience under a competent director. Appro
priate exercises will be held in the Salem schools, as will be
dons In the schools of all other states. , . ." . - . v -f
The public services of General Grant, his campaigns and
victories, his loyalty to the soldier's oath, taken in his youth
us a cadet and held sacred till death, the simplicity of his
life, the purity of his character, his generous treatment of
friends and foes, his calmness and courage in places of ex
treme danger all combine to stir the admiration and respect
ct the world as has been done by few great men.
In nothing was the nobility of his character shown more
caarly than by the circumstances of his ; last days. In a
ungle day he learned that instead of being .a comparatively
v. ealthy man, he had been financially ruined by the treachery
r.nd dishonesty of a trusted business agent, and,, was, in
fact, a poor manr without means to, supply his. household
needs for even a few weeks.' His good friendY the Mexican
Minister to the United States; immediately sent him a thous
and dollars which he refused to accept save as a "temporary
1 an; and a stranger who did not give his name sent $500,
1.3 said, "on account of my! share for service rendered m
April? 18G5." These timely sums served to meet the instant
'personal needs of the family, whidh were further relieved
by a generous offer of the Century Magazine for two articles
which the General was asked to write. " Being encouraged
Ly the favor with which the public received his articles, he
resolved to write his personal memoirs, hoping that the
profits of the sale of the, book might save his family from
want,'"-,; - ' -...ve;,. ;:;t:

staff of the New York Journal of

1920 he contributed valuable let

in "Who's Who," perhaps because
he would not answer questions
about his life.

"What's that?".
"They're ' scrapbooks. It's : al
ways fun to make scrapbooks.
First I'll collect a big pile of old
magazines and borrow plenty of
scissors and provide paste, some
brass fasteners.' a 1 paper punch,
and some sheets of heavy paper In
different colors., t First yon make
the books, picking out the color of
paper you want and putting three
sheets together, folding them in
the middle and fastening them
with the paper clips, after punch
ing the holes ' where t yon want
them. " This . makes nine twelve
page books.
Then everyone writes her
name on a slip of paper -and the
slips are put in a hat and mixed
up. Then each person draws a
name and makes a book for the
person whose name she draws.
"You cut the pictures out of
the books, yon see, either from
ads or stories, and arrange them
so as to make a life history, get
ting pictures which will tell the
story. It's fun to figure out the
fate for somebody, and of course,
you must try to make it a good
one. Then after they're all fin

appealingly. But Miss Pratt's gray

coldly. "I'll try to write nice,"
faltered Marie, "but it is so hard.

she went, looking sharply at each
of the books spread . out on the
desks. ; All the grades in the city
were writing George Washington's
essays for the annual contest, and
Miss Pratt was determined that
her grade should hand in the fin
est looking composition books of
all. She made the pupils copy
their stories over until they were
neat enough to suit her. It was
only on the third trial that Marie,
who was a "foreign . kid," was
able to . make a ' copy that would
pass Miss Pratt's eagle eye at all.
Marie had forgotten all about
the stories and was toiling one
day over copying a history .lesson
when the principal came in. They
all liked Mr. Phillips, and, every
one stopped work when he came,
hoping he might say something to
them. This time he did not dis

what else he said, for next thing
She knew she was on the platform
and the principal ' had his arm
