H. McGREER, PIONEER The trails of Chief Paulina and his raiders were still fresh in the sparsely populated interior rejrion of Oregon many years ago when a young stockman, T. H. McGreer, settled on the green ridges that overlook the deep John Day valley from the south, in the colored hills of the Clarno basin. That was 65 years ago. Bend's present site was marked by a few cabins. Redmond was not even a dot on the map of Oregon, and Prine ville, the village of Barney Prine near the junction of Crooked river and Ochoco creek, was just taking its place in the sun as the county seat of Crook, created from Wasco in 1882. Now comes news that Mr. McGreer is dead, at the age of 95 years. He was the dean of Central Oregon stockmen, and, with probably one or two exceptions, he was Central Oregon's old est resident. His death marks the end of an era, and for old timers it will awaken memories of a rangeland epoch filled with exciting frontier history. In his early-day residence in southern Wasco county, Mr. McGreer lived by the side of the road, at the '"Timber culture" ranch on the Clarno slope, but he did not watch the world go by. There were few who passed the farmstead, with its tower ing trees and green lawn, who did not stop. They were always welcome, and, in making Mr. McGreer's acquaintance, they were richer when they left. - Mr. McGreer kept young by keeping in touch with young people. Seldom did he ever miss a dance at Antelope, and he was still dancing when he passed 90, sharing the floor with grandchildren and great grandchildren. When the Wasco pioneers meet in The Dalles this year, tri bute will be paid Mr. McGreer. We of this part of Central Ore gon who were honored in knowing the pioneer will join in that tribute. "A delegation of high school students", reads a news item from Denver, "marched upon the Colorado capitol to plead with Gov. Lee Knous for 'immediate intercession by the state government to promptly remedy insufferable conditions in Westwood high school' ". A split infinitive, we think, should be called insufferable. , A night club owner comments that "hot"' music seems to be on the way out. We hope that he is right. Something jrool will be refreshing indeed. ! SacVett To Buy This old woblo is a a j.i Radio Station MIGHTY FINE. PLACE "CO f i rvF ruAr is if vqu i MAKE IT.

FOR THE FINEST IN PHOTOGRAPHY IT'S 829 Wall St TO m ART STUDIO Fbone 289 Easter Candy Shortage Faced Portland, Ore., Feb. 21 mi It seems that shortages still persist as far as the Easter bunny is con cerned. , A survey here showed there were lots of kinds of candies gum drops, chocolate-coated rais ins, even marshmallows. But jelly beans and other kindred eastern candy were scarce almost to the point of non-existence. Those in the trade, who saw little Improvement for the situa tion by Easter, said the sugar shortage is largely the reason. They pointed out that Jellybeans and their kindred candies are 60 per cent sugar. Brewers Will Get Additional Grain I Washington.

The new public lands committees created by the meria er of a number of minor commit tees - have Ihi'II broken tlown Into as many subcommittees 11s there were full commltlecs before.
