Territory and latpr a mnmKnn nr

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. "hn was
teaching in a school the young
coupie lermea a -suourban wil
derness' but which is now the site
of the American Museum nf Nat.
ural History in Central Park.
'Cornelia Condon was nrrlpntlv
Sympathy With her hllshanri'e

of going to the Oregon country

and finally reached their first
destination at the tiny village of
St. Helens, Oregon.
"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-

gene Kennel Club meetings.
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.

tures . '. . but
there's a third
ingredient that's
equally impor
tant. That is cor
rect exposure.
When you over
expose a negative,
it s pretty mucn
like using a foun
tain pen that
fnnrls tnn much
ink. 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. If there's
anv picture at all, it will lack
definite shadows and details.
Ca,.m.p thin nan hi .nrraMarl
! a little during the developing, but
!only if the margin ot error in
the exoosure was pretty smaii,
There's only one sure way to
correct exposure errors , , . and
to save the wasted film that al
ways results from guessing ex
posures. That solution is an ex
posure meter , . . the precision
