Some extensive improvements are
being contemplated by the board of
trustees of the M. E. church, which!
will improve greatly the appear
ance of the property now owned by
that denomination, and add much
to the accommodations. Nothing j
definite has been decided upon as
yet, but it is a part of the plan to j
move the parsonage to the corner, !
now occupied by the old Evangeli
cal church building. This will
make room for the erection of a
building on the site where the par
sonage now stands, to be used as an
assembly room. If this is not done
it will be necessary to raise the
church building and make a base
ment to afford additional room. It
is quite probable that these im
provements and others will be made
this summer.

NEW SCHOOL BUILDING.
A Proposition That Will Interest Every
: Patron of Corvallis Public Schools-.
The board of directors of school
district No. 9. are seriously con
sidering the idea of erecting a
new school building to accommo
date the rapidly increasing at
tendance at the Corvallis public
school. In fact, the board is
confronted by a condition which
will make building necessary.
The lease on the old Evangeli
cal church building, which has
accommodated the overflow from
the present school house, expires
at the end of this school term,
and quarters must be provided
for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd grades.
The board now has under con
sideration three projects. One

northern and one in the southern
partof the town. Another plan
addition to the present school
house. The .third proposition,
and the one which seems to have
the fewest objectionable features,
is to purchase the block just east
of the present school property
and erect a building upon it.
This plan would provide addi
tional playground; bring the pu
pils all under the immediate
supervision of the principal, and
centralize the school property.
The board is quite anxious that
patrons of the school express their
wishes in this matter. -
"Ail Octogenarian's Soliloquy.1
'- Rev. J. A. Hanna, the veteran
Home Missionary, who has seen' a
half century of service on this
coaat, celebrated his eightieth birth
day; Saturday, February 14th.
Sixty . letters of congratulation,
from twelve different States, were
received; and the large number of
friends who called are evidences of
the high esteem in which he and
his good wife are held wherever
they . are .known. ' The following
beautiful poem in honor of the. oc
casion was written by the Rev. D.
R. Colmery, D. D.:
(Dedicated to Rev. J. A. Hanna on his eightieth
birthday anniversary Februiry li, 1963.)
I'm eighty yeara of age today,
And yet how short it seems
Since I was bit a playful child ,
EDjoying childish dreams.
I cannot see the change that comes
With such an even pace,
Nor did note when wrinkles formed
Upon my fading face.
I know I'm old, and yet my heart
Is just as young and gay
Ab e'er it was before my locks
Of dark brown turned to gray.
I know my eyes are cot so bright
As once they did appear .
" And vet tfs tiot because i'niskd "
- My heart ia full of cheer.
I never watched with purer joy.
The beauty of the skies,
While glittering tears of rapture fill
These dimmed and facing eyes.
I've seen the flowers grow old and pale
- And withered more than 1; -I've
seen them lose their every charm
Then droop and fall and die. '
And then I've eeen them rise again
Bright as the morning ssy,
So young and pure and beautiful,
And felt that so shall I.
Then, what if I am growing old,
My heart is joyous still,
For God has given me enough
This throbbing heart to fill.
I love to see the sun go down.
Its lengthening shadows throw
A darker hue, while all around,
The skies with crimson glow.
I see beyond this gorgeous view
A country bright and fair,
Which needs no sun; God and the lamb
Its light and beauty are.
I seem to hear triumphant songs
Of loved ones gone before,
How sweet 'twill be to join with them
The Savior to adore.
While they were here I called them
mine
Now, Heaven's sweet ones are they ,
But I shall claim my own again -When
I am called away.

An Ardent Granger.
Hon. Aaron Jones, of South
Bend, Indiana, master of the Na
tional Grange, addressed an audi
ence that filled the college chapel
last Monday evening. Mr. Jones
is a farmer and his address had
most to do with matters of espec
ial interest to farmers, but the
speaker treats his subject with
such originality and his delivery
is so pleasing that all who at
tended were highly entertained.
Mr. Jones endeavors to impress
upon farmers the necessity of
their becoming members of the
grange; the great good that or
ganization has accomplished, and i
the benefit derived from its efforts
! by the farmers c-f this country.
The speaker said that the present
rural free delivery system is the
outgrowth of the demands of the
grange. At firsr an appropria
tion of $250,000 --was secured for
experimental purposes. The re
cent congress appropriated $12,
000,000 for the -"establishment of
rural free deliver;- routes.
The Grout pure food bill,
sometimes known as .the oleo
margeriue bill, is also. to be cred
ited to the grange. The greatly
stimulated price, for dairy pro
ducts is largely c,us to the opera
tion of this measure
The speaker dwelt upon the
great good that is being accom
plished by the agricultural col
leges of the country, and admon
ished farmers to give these insti

port. He said the attendance at

The little daughter of Mr. and

shocking accident which befell
her Wednesday afternoon about 3
o'clock.
The family came from Okla

Creek. Xast Wednesday, while
the father was at work at the
Corvallis sawmill and the mother
was out in the yard, the little
girl, six years of age, and her
brother younger than she, were
alone in the house1. It is believed
that the little girl climbed upon
a chair and moved the teakettle
from an opening-in the top of the
stove. She turned around and ;

BENTON IS OUT Of DEBT.
Over $46,000 of Indebtedness Was Wiped

Four Years as County Judge.
Thanks to
business-like
the county's
the conservative,
administration of
affairs by Judge
Woodward
juring
his term ot
office, Benton couuty is cut cf :
debt today. The exhibit of the :
county's finances published in
April preceding Judge Wood-i
ward's entrance upon the duties;
ot county judge, showed the ne
indebtedness of Benton county
to be $51,510 83. The hnancia
exhibit published last April, the
last statement of this kind pre
ceding Judge. Woodward's vaca
tion of the office, showed the nc
indebtedness of the county to be
$4,668.78; a reduction of $46,
851.05 in the county's indebted
ness during his term
While this large indebtedness
was being wiped out, great im
provements were being - made
More money was expended in
the betterment of roads than had
been appropriated . for this pur
pose in years before; bridges were
rebuilt and new ones added ; a
ferry was purchased, and rock
crushers and road graders were
added to the county's road mak
ing equipment. All this was ac
complished with a steadily de
creasing county tax levy, for
when fudge Woodward was
elected the levy for county pur
poses was 13 mills, and the levy
made iust before his retirement
from office was 9 mills for county
purposes. This year's levy is 15
mills.
The decrease in indebtedness
during Judge Woodward's term
is shown by the following table:

been available for this purpose

not been made greater than the
