The days when Lincoln was a
thriving grain shipping center,
were recalled by former resident
Col, Carle Abrams, whose father
Louis Abrams owned the general
store.
' At its prime, stated Col. Abrams,
Lincoln boasted six steamboat
arrivals and departures a day dur
ing grain shipping season, a saw
mill, grist mill, beehive factory,
houses, grain elevators, black
smith shop, church and village
hall.
"I've seen farm wagons lined up
from the river to the store on the
hill, waiting to unload wheat," re
counted Frank Boehringer, organ
izer with Mrs. J. D. Walling
and Mrs. Lois Crawford of the
Pioneer picnics. "We had a lively

grandfather of Jack Spong, pres'
ident of the picnic last year.
Lincoln blacksmith Gerth, fath
er of Walter Gerth, now of West
Salem planted the first walnut
tree in Lincoln, although derided
by most of his neighbors who said
it would not grow here.
He kept it wrapped with blan

eventually sold his first crop for
$40 to the amazement of his
friends.
Ralph Shepard, formerly of
Zcna gave some interesting Zena
history, stating that recently he
took a survey at the Zena ceme

most all Camp Adair buildings is
required in an unexpected direc
tive issued by the Department of
the Army, Clyde Rushing, pres
ident of the Albany Chamber of

rective. -

effected, will result in closing

100 men working in the plants,
Now in operation at Camp
Adair are Redi-Bilt Products.
Inc., Modern Freeze . and Stor
age, K-Toys, Plywood Products,
Inc., Flnnell Turkey and Poultry
company, Monmouth Co-op ware
house, ana several other poultry
companies. , ,
The directive requires the dis.
continuance of all outleasing of
vacant buildings for prviate and
commercial use and "its imple
mentation win include their dis
posal for off-site removal," Col.
PicRetl revealed.
Rushing and Mayor Charles K.
McCormack met with Gov. Paul
Fetterson Wednesday to deter
mine what steps might be taken
to have the order rescinded.
The matter also is being taken
up with two of Oregon's repre
sentatives In congress, Waller
Norblad and Harris Ellsworth
and also with Senator Guy Cor
don, it was announced.
In addition, strong letters of
protest have been sent to Pick
ett and to the division engineer
in Portland.
