2-; V HE CORVALLIS GAZETTE Tuesdays and Fridays, O. A. DEARING. ED. and BUS. MGR. Close of the State Grange On Thursday morning business -commenced at the State Grange at the usual hour. Routine busi ness and resolutions occupied all the time. ' Resolutions of Con dolence on the death of former members, were followed by a memorial service, and a ,song by a selected choir. In the afternoon Installation of Officers was held, and several re ports of committees recorded. The principal report was by the committee on Education, which ! was adopted with loud applause. It was as follows: Realizing the tendency of the present j limn, and that oar system of education I ieads the children away from the faim, ! we tavor a more liberal support by the etate of our country echools. We recom mend the centralization of schools, pro viding the central point be in the coun try. We urge upon the members of our subordinate Granges the necessity of 'electing men for our school officers who are qualttied to fill such positions, and who are vitally interested in the cause of education. "We declare for a more practical educa ? tlon, that Nature's studies and elemen tarp principles of agriculture be taught in our public schools. That we have text-books and teachers who, instead of teaching our children to get away from the farm, will dignify farm life, show its possibility, and draw v more young people to it. ' We urge upon the patrons of the Orange the necessity of a good library in our public schools, among which should be a liberal number of books pertaining -to farm life. We believe the morals of a nation are the reflection of the morals of the home, - and we ask the mothers and guardians J in our Grange to discriminate against ' sensational newspapers publishing de tailed accounts of crime, suicides, prize fights, and improper a ivertisements. The future strength and safety of our country lies in our country homes, and we hope the time will soon come- whea we can justly claim that 'man and woman has given to our country the greatest National gift when - they nourish and maintain a good farmer. Resolutions of appreciation for s favors received from the people of Corvallis, the College authori ties, the railroad companies and the press were passed by a rising .vote. vOa Thursday evening Odd ; Fellows Hall was crowded with Grangers to its utmost capacity, when the degree work was given. i.
