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.
