T. Mathews of Willam mette oniYerslty, who was for a long time an associate of Profes sor! Kraps in educational work. It was a splendid tribute of an appreciative friend and neighbor to the memory of one worthy of the; highest record. Professor Kraps taught school in this part or the state back in the days when wages were low. He presided over the Central Howell district school when the district paid him only $25 a month. Later-he took up normal school work, directing his efforts to be preparation of teachers for their life vocations. He was a man of infinite devotion to his task. No teacher ever "got by him without actually knowing the subjects thoroughly. Old-time teachers tell of the oatience with which he would go over every knotty problem. One teacher told Saturday of how some of the teacher students have even cried over their .inability to grasp the essential points, but in the end the; instructor's ability to make matters clear, brought them through triumphantly. Profes sor Kraps was reckoned as one of the ablest educators' In the state and 'certainly one of the kindest.

Co, Soon to Be Ready for Operation Practically the last brick was laid on the wall-, oof the power house for the big Portland Rail Way Light & Power company plant Saturday. The roof is on and the monitor windows are ready to he put into place. Part of the concrete floor of the sta tion w-as laid yesterday, and a considerable larger area will probably be cleared lor fldbr-lay-ing today. The huse turbine and genera tor are mounted and practically reay for the steam to be turned In. There is considerable work yet to do In placing the Hghter machines in the plant, but with the floor cleared, the great travel ing crane will pick up the heavi est of these machines and set H as lightly as a feather Just where it is to go. The switchboard wIU be ret in place within the next few days-. The wiring isj all carried under the floor in pipe conduits, so that there will be small danger from wire burns. The water tube boilers harve been all bricked in, the fire-brick furnaces have been finished, and except for the nstalation of the automatic fuel feeding ' devices, the fires might soon, be started under the boilers. . The smoke disposition plant,, however, has not yet been, completed. The workmen are now riveting the Ijnoke icoflveyors into place to carry all the combustion products to the smoke -condenser and cin der cone that ' eliminates the smoke evil practically altogether. The "hog"fuel is to eorae In from the railroad on Trade street by belt conreyor. The trestle for carrying all this apparatus is now being built and will soon be fin ished. The boiler house walls are stilly waiting j construction. There is a conslderabe quantity of brick yet to lay for this por tion of the plant. . It is expected that the plant will be ready for operation in less than 30 days. The boiler house is the t largest item that I would be serlocsly affected by a i rainy spelL Much of the inside! finishing is already beyond the j reach ot? rain, ' FRENCH MANEUVERS. Kenneth Allen Sings With Whitney Chorus Oct 11 At the Portland Municipal au ditorium, October 11. Kenneth Allen, son of Mr. and Mrs. V. G. i Allen, will be featured on the program at the concert of the Whitney Boys chorus. Kenneth has been a member of the chorus for more than a year and is rec ognized as one of its finest sing ers. His voice is of such, purity that he was one of the nine of the Whitney organization to be chos en for private vocal instruction. Critics of note have said that Ken neth had voice more pleasing than any other boy's voice they ever heard. It is interesting to note that this young sinper, 13 years of age, was recalled repeat edly In Vancouver by the largest 1 audience ever assembled hood last week and Wednesday night was initiated in the Rebek- ah ; lodge.
