The funeral occurred Ftiday morning, from Wilkin's undertaking parlors. Times. What is it? A f u neral? Dead ! killed! Fell some fifty feet from a bridge and killed! Her son, you say, her. pride and her stay, her baby boy grown to manhood, and she, poor mother, is crushed beneath the blow. With head bowed to earth, with eyes fasten ed upon the sod," she grieves and buries all of him with all that was all of him, save memory sweet. Go to her ye who knew her well, tell her to look up. How can she see the .stars that shine when her gaze is glued upon the earth. How can she seethe radiant beams of light and hope and love that fold her in loving cmorace, when she is blinded in prison walls. Go to her, this mother, ye wh have wept and sorrowed ! Go to her, ye who have found the light! Open the door to her sepulchre, show her that he, the boy she loved is with her still, is still the same shield, the comfort, the joy, if she will but lean upon his arm. There is no barrier be tween the souls that love. Time, distance, death, are but of person ality, and all shall shift, shall come and go but Soul is stead fast in its immortality. How can you find this so? Look within. As it takes a God to find a God, so it takes the con sciousness of Soul to realize its own immortality, to real ize the steadfast principle that lives within, to know that what is truly really ours by soul right and inheritance shall abide for ever. But Soul cannot be found by dwelling on the surface, you must penetrate within to Cause. You must penetrate the walls of flesh axd know that flesh is but the death, the change, simply in the expression of the wonderful Power we . call Life. Look up! Wd cannot see the flower when we are gazing at the root Look up! There is no hope within the sod but does spring upward, and the God witmn us finds the way. This is the open door for you who sorrow. Look up and look within; The outside keep- eth not the treasure, and he that loveth you, calls for his own? Will you look up, and let him in? T. S. P. F. i The Corvallis School Board has made a sale of an $8000 bond issue to local capitalists on a basis of 4 per cent interest. The money is to be applied in the purchase of ground and erection of a new school building. The bonds were taken by six local investors, whose names have not been made public. The award of the bonds to lo cal investors is in violation of a provision of the school law, which provides that the bonds shall be first offered the State School Board at 5 per cent interest rate. The local board wrote the State Board, offering the bonds at 4 per cent interest rate, but receiv ed no reply. Thereupon it sold the bonds to local people, prefer ring to' take chances on being compelled to pay the penalty for vialation ot the law, rathe 1 than let the bonds go at 5 per cent. The fine prescribed- for viola ting the particular provision of the school law that is involved is $10 to $ioo. During the termj the bonds are to run, at 4 per cent, instead of a ; per cent, in terest rate will save the district about $1300. Since the offering of the bonds to the state land board is manda tory, there is a possibility that the bond issue will4be illegal. Oregonian.
