Condon, an early Con gregational minister in Oregon Territory and latpr a mnmKnn nr the first faculty of its stain imi. versny, was mo s u b j e c t of a sketch by Mrs. W, H. Modes at a recent Eugene Fortnightly Club program. We first learn of Cornelia Unit Condon, daughter nf Nim, pnB. land parents when she left her leacning position in upper New York to come as thn hrH nf lyoung Dr. Condon to New York City. Thomas W. Condon had come to mat city Irom Ireland at the age of cloven, had re ceived his education there and his ordination as a minister. "When t h e V were mnrrinil " Mrs. Modes cxDlained.

"Durine the next, few vnarc Ttr Condon was located at Alhanv then at Forest Grove, and finally sent to The Dalles. From a Portland Oregonian of 1901, Mrs. Hodes quoted: 'All who have come within the sphoro of her influence will recall the tender gracious life of a womanly woman. Few perhaps remain of those who gathered in the log cabin in those days to listen to the gospel as preached by Dr. Condon, but all who sur vive will remember the gentle graces that found expression in the life of the minister s wife.' "The missionary assignment of Dr. Condon was not concluded in Forest Grove," Mrs. Hodes con tinued, "for we find them later in The Dalles and it was there that Dr. Condon developed an increas ing interest in the science of ge ology which was later to bring him renown. When a position was offered Dr. Condon on the faculty of Pa cific University, Forest Grove, the family prepared to move as soon as transportation was available. This was the winter of '61-'62, still recorded as one of the bitterest in history and ending in unparal leled floods over the entire state. During this emergency, the Con don family were rescued from the upper floor of their almost sub merged house. "When naigation was again possible through the gorge, they traveled part of the way in a crude conveyance covered with black oil-cloth and drawn by mules on a trolley track Ore gon's earliest rail transportation around the rapids of the Columbia at that time. "With the opening of the Uni versity of Oregon, the family came to Eugene and established their residence on the southwest corner of 11th and High Sts. where their family of six chil dren grew to maturity. "Cornelia Condon, with her out standing ability, her loyalty and unselfishness, left a rich heri tage to her community, to her church and to the club of which she was a beloved charter mem ber," Mrs. Hodes said in conclu- iCard Cluh Meets Mead I " ' TT KU WVTT?ur t- j i .,7 ' ami. aim i P"l Club Saturday evening i n a : ?' - uier an early potluck M".

On hand at the April meeting, to listen in on working plans for the club's 8th Annual All-Breed Dog Show, were a Cairn Terrier, "Rocky, and a German Snep- herd, "Sir Basil Zaharoff," owned Makinz her debut In the club also was six-weeks-olu", "Piggy," a diminutive Pom puppy from the coat pocket of Dewayne Zuber, while her kcnnelmale, "Hinshaw's Mighty Midget," celebrated her six-month birthday by giving the members her undivided attention from the lap of Mrs. 0. C. Hin-shaw. The question was raised if Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lowe are trying to start a new type of English Bull dog with their eight-month-old miniature, "Soda Fizz." At home "Fizz" takes the short cut by walking under her brother and sister instead of detouring around them, but she made up for a strenuous day of following them around, by snoring during the meeting after making the ac quaintance of members. "Talis man's Bit of Fashion," Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Johnson's Boxer, was at the meeting to represent the many Boxer owners of the club. Another German Shepherd, Shane," who "owns" Mr. and Mrs. Glen Bryan, was there to model how the well-mannered dog behaves at a busy meeting. The spotlight was turned on the star of the evening, Mr. and Mrs. Alan Shelmerdine's nine-month' old Bedlington Terrier, "Mr. Tut of Valgo." Explaining the lamb like appearance of the Bedlington, Mr. Shelmerdine demonstrated how they are clipped and trimmed for show appearance. The coat is curly and silky and with maturity becomes linty, never wiry. Trim ming is not as difficult as it might appear and the owner eas ily can learn to do it himself, the very thin ears with their silk tassels at the tip giving the trim mer the most concern. Bedling tons are classed as Terriers and make splendid house pets, as they neither shed nor have any doggy odor and have the vim and sparkle of the Terrier breed. Al so they will attack rats, badgers, otters or any other vermin with courage and enthusiasm second to none. Colors are liver, sandy and blue. Mr. Tut is a blue. Bedlington's More Numerous In the past, Bcdlingtons have not been too numerous at dog shows, but this year they are turning out in larger numbers, making competition easier to find, although most of them are young dogs. Attention was drawn to the breed in 1948 when a Bedlington owned by Mr. and Mrs. William Rockefeller. "Ch. Rock Ridge Night Rocket," made a brilliant 1053 show. This class goes through the same procedure as in the regular open show, from local class winners through to group winners ind on to local Best in Show. Although no points are given for this class,' ribbons and trophies are awarded for most of the classes. The same judge who judges Best of Show for the regu lar show dogs, also judges the Best Local Dog in Show. All dogs entered for the local class must be purebred registered dogs or available for registration, which includes an additional small fee if not already registered. They must be entered in the regular show at the regular entry fee, but there will be no additional fee charged for the added entry in the local class for the Labor Day Annual Dog Show. Final plans were made for Eu gene Clubs second Obedience Sanction Match May 9 in the 4H building at the Lane County Fair grounds. R. H. Hatfield of Port land, who made many friends in Eugene when he judged the first Sanction Match here, also will judge the second match. Many local dogs are expected to parti cipate, following a recent obedi ence training class held here. A small entry fee is asked for each dog to help defray expenses of the building. Further information may be had by calling the secre tary, Mrs. Lowe, 6-1486. New members voted into the club include Mr. and Mrs. Leo Zahar, Mr. and Mrs. Alan Shel merdine, Mr. and Mrs. C. Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Wallis, Mr. and Mrs. William Gooch, David Moss and George R. Softley. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Wren were in charge of refreshments. I'lLTUKtS PICTURE FKAMRS GHKKTING CARDS lit K.

You know what happens then. Instead of a fine sharp line on thn natipr. the ink soaks out and results in a series of small but smudgy blots. The writing lacks sharp detail or definition. The same thing happens when too much light strikes the nega tive in your camera because of over-exposure. Instead of a sharp, clean image you get a heavy, blurry image on the negative. This just won't produce a good print, no matter how careful the developing. Under-exposure results in an pnuallv bad nrint from the ncga live, but this time because there's not enough light to make the necessary impression.
