NEARLY all stores close on New Year's day; but it is no
holiday either for proprietors or clerks. It is generally
a day et aside for Invoicing, i. Most merchants would rather
take a whipping than do their invoicing This is because they

quite thoroughly the lesson of the 1919-1921 period, f They
didn't get caught so badly in 1929-1933. Considering the; great
reduction in business volume

because they had followed the policy of carrying short stocks,
replenishing them often, and so avoiding losses through price
declines. Again they lost "considerable money because they
had to have some merchandise to remain in business; but

By R. J HENDRICKS ' .
One of the last of the
Mohicans in early Oregon:
Tha'tier. J. H. Frost journal.
referred to in the series that clos
ed yesterday, contained in several
places mention of a man named
Cooper. - ;,-tv:.::-t'?v:,',:V' ... y- VK
This .Cooper, was -a rather
strange character who drifted in
to Oregon. , in 1840. The Frost
Journal shows that the party from
Clatsop plain coming after cattle
and horses in the Willamette val
ley in 1S41 found marks of a trail
biased by Cooper from the upper
reaches of the Yamhill river to
the Nestucca the year before; and
the blazing aided;- them,, their
way having been tost. In getting
over the Coast Range. -
The 'same Cooper helped in
driving the cattle and horses from
near the' lee mission to 'Clatsop
plain, as shown by the Frost jonr
nal. ; - ' . .
Again, the Frost Journal in its
entry for Jan. 3, 1848, reads in
part: Cooper" arrived from Wil
lamette bringing the sad Intelli
gence that Bro. Olley was drown
ed on the 11th of December In
the Willamette river above .the
mission.",;-; -.v - ' c; -"!T
Turning to the "Oregon" of
Oustavue - - Hlnee. - beginning on
page 120, one gets a sketch of the
man cooper. . -
Hlnea wrote In his book that
he left The Mills (as Salem was
then called) on December 7, 1842,
on his way to Fort Vancouver to
procure supplies for the Indian
manual labor, school of the lee
mission, of which he (Hlnes) then
had chief charge: the school be
ing In the building that became
the Oregon -Institute .that : by
change or name became Willam
ette university.
He went on horseback to Butte-
Yfiie, and there took the canoe,
then kept on the WUlamette river
above the falls by the .mission tor
the transporatlon of supplies. -
He left this canoe above the
falls and took another provided
by Geo. Abemethy, mission stew
ard, below- the falls, and proceed
ed on to Fort Vancouver, where
he transacted his business - with
the Hudson's Bay company, and.

Kay began to see the whole pic

Boris had had his ssy.There was no :
telling .what he might suggest. He
was as natural and candid a person -as.
ever she had met and she re
spected his obvious sincerity.- ;
. i should like to work directly
with you," Boris went on. "When I
wrote the play I had real people in
mind. You must know that".
"I rather thought so from what I
heard," she admitted.
v "Yes, and now I have another real :
person in mind. The .play is the
same essentially.'' The locale." He
shrurred those " hnsre shoulders.
"Harrow was surprised how willing
ly i agreed to change it. The locale
is not the important thing. It is
the person I have In mind that ts
the important thinr. When I did
'Sad Exile I was in Tahiti and had
Gauguin in mind. When I did this
play 1 was in Newfoundland and 1
naa someone else in mind. That is
over now, and now that it is you
who must carry this burden ef my
work I must have you in mind." -
Boris stopped and looked at her
with a shy smile.
"I should say that 1 eould have
no choice now," he said. "So I must
know you better. I must understand
you with the same intensity I did
Gauguin and the woman who was
first ia this play.. I must know you
as I knew that woman." - V
"I see." Kay said, matter-of-f act-
ly, but pleasantly.. . - - -
"I want you with me, then,' this

anybody. And when I do love some
one enough to marry him, that's
what I intend to do marry him."
"Nicely and concisely out." Boris
commented. "And you didnt take
offense, which is by. far the best
part of it,"
"Why should I take offense 7"
