ADDRESS OF WELCOME.
tBY MISS BEtLE MOORE.
Mb. President, I Gejimlemen- and
Ladies: I have been chosen by - tho
Adelphian Society tjo welcome you here
this evening and if j were better able
to express myself it- would be the most
pleasant offlco. You era invited here
to-nightto listen to! the closing exer
cises of otrr society
The Adelphian
Literary is the first;
Society ever organ-
ized in Roseburg, arid has an enrollment
of Q0 Members, all of whom have ta
ken a great interest in its Buccess.
They have exhibited considerable tal
ent, as much, I think, as will be found
in niany societies composed of older
persons. When we first organized,
which was about si months ago, we
weie, with but few exceptions, igno
rant of how a Literary Society should
be conductedj since .that time we have
learned much about this formula, and
have been greatly benefitted by the
exercises of each evening.
That you may knpw how wo employ
ed our time at eachjmeeting, we have
not varied the regular routine of work,
except, probably to pake it a little
more extensive than at our regular
meetings. ' I
So this evening ydu will witness a
fair exhibit of our regular work. Our
reason foi bringing the society to a
close now is owing to the fact a num
ber of tho members
will not bo able to
attend school during the Spring term,
and we do not wish
to continue it with
out them, and also
he evening3 beiDg
much shorter in summer. Therefore
wo have thought it! best to adjourn
to-night with the understanding that
tho Literary Socieljj will continue its
work the next school term, when we
hope to reorganize w-ith a largo mem
bership. In behalf of tho members of
tho Adelphian Literary Society, gen-
tlenicn and ladies, I
welcomo you here
to-night,
A TRUE
law.
BY MlSd DORA LEWIS.
Every one has his own opinion of
what "constitutes a! trne lady. Bhe
may bp beautiful, wjell educated, and
wealthy, or she may bo homely and
poor, but the qualities of heavt and
mind shine so brightly that all know
she is a lady. She must be above all,
kind, gentle and loving. All women
are not ladies any more than all men
are gentlemen. No woman who
makes it her chief ccupation to paint
her face, and parade the streets, who
can not utter a sentence that is not full
of slang, hns by no means all tho ele
ments of a true lady. In whatever
position she occupies she sustains hei
self with quiet digni ty. She is never
loud nor boastful, 1 ut rather modest
and retiring, satisfied with her duties
whatever they may je, content in her
home and in the 1 v e of those who
cluster around its dear hearth, stone.
She exerts her Iot ing influence over
all with whom she ccmes in contact
day by day.; Theioorand oppressed
never fail to come t her for help and
sympathy. : She ne -er shirks tho re
sponsibilities tkat n ay fall to her lot
but always eudeavo -g to perform them
to the benefit of thitse around her. A
woman should Lav j no higher aim in
life than to attain t le merited reputa
tion of being a la y. The name of
lady embraces all that is to bo desired
in life. The love and devotion of her
:iends; the respe:t
of all whom she
may meet with, as she passes through
the battle of life, and the administra-
tiv C ..II . .. I
u vx .... At inoiasi meeting ot our
society Hon. E. O. Hursh made us
n.-.eV a 1
"""o auareaa, iu wmcb ne graph-
7 rvuicu guuiDut laegreac lau
ings of the present ac: ' H tnM n
that a true lady Is never content to
dress and play on the piano while her
mother is strur-lm to W th
work which should have been taken
off her shoulders by her daughter. ' It
is easy to discern the difference be
tween a lady and merely a grown fe
male or a woman. See them in
ety a woman will be rude, tall
make herself noticeable by her ill man
ners, and her name will be a common i
word among the lowest and the vilest;
but how different with a lady her
manners are gentlo and kind, and she j
will never be spoken of with other than
respect.
VALEDTCTOllT.
OT MISS LIZZIE P ABBOTT.
io-night our society closes its work
for this school year and it is with- a
feeling of sadness that I perform this
most honorable duty, which has de-
volved upon me namely, that of deliv-
cring the valedictory. I am forcibly
rommdm nf mv ir..i;i, f A
to such an important task. If I could
but express my feeling on this occasion,
- - --
I trust you would all feel satisfied,
but it is impossible for mo to find words
to picture to you all that I feel. The
nafiia i v uie via. sail v rn fui n n n n w
a a jJiaiu-
tive sound, but when bidding fare
well to anything of as pleasant a char
acter as our Adelphian Literary Society
has been it contains a world of sadness,
The career of this society, since the
time of its first meeting has been one
of uninterrupted success. I am sure
that not one of tho many members de
part from its instructive influence
without a pang of Borrow, Although
our vacation is welcome after our long
and continued toil and we will be the
better fitted to resume the work after
oar rest, but some of the faces will be
missed from their accustomed places to
be with us no more, they go forth to
meet the different responsibilities in
life. We part realizing that in ..all
probability, we shall all of ns never
again be assembled together at our so
ciety, but we fervently hope, that those
who go forth to battle with the stern
realities of life, may fill the particular
positions allotted to them among God's
people, with honor to themselves, and
that they may 'be an example to those
who remain to strive to follow in their
foofateps. One' word more to the de
parting members; be careful of the
little duties of daily life. The bricks
that compose a handsome building are
not to be thought of 'singly but as a
part, of a whole structure, and each
must be fitted and polished with care,
lest the beauty of the whole building
be marred. The same with trifling
affairs in life, which appear to be of no
consequence singly, . but when taken
together they magnify to startling pro
portions. We cannot close our part
ing words without expressing our grat
itude for the kind assistance of our
teachers, and we also wish to express
our thanks for the oft repeated words
of enoouragemont from the many citi
zens of our prosperous community.
And especially is the Adelphian Lit
erary Society indebted to the far famed
J unior band, for the inspiring music
which they have so kindly furnished
us, gratus, since the commencement of
our society, they are indeed entitled
to, and have a thousand fold, our life
long gratitude with which they will
have to be content until they are bet
ter paid. -
"Adelphian" is from tho Greek word
"Adelphus" which means . brotherly,
and the form Adelphian only applies
to thoso who go through life ever treat
ing others kindly and are ever actuated
by brotherly or sisterly affection. Let
us all from now throughout the future
strive to deal with humanity in all in
stances as should brothers and sisters,
and wo shall again assemble and clasp
glad hands in that grand eternity where
true Adelphians meet to rejoice for
ever. "
A JItnt to Boy i.
I stood in the store ' the other day,
when a boy came in and applied for a
situation.
"Can you write a good handr was
asked.
"Yaas."
'Good at figures,"
"Yaas."
"That will do I do not want yon,"
said the merchant. '
"But," I said when the boy had
gone, "I know that lad to be an honest,
industrious boy. Why don't you give
him a chancer
"Because he hasn't learned to say
Yes, sir,' and 'No, sir.' If he answers
me as he did when applying for a situ
ation, how will he answer customers ai
ter being here a month?"
wnat could I say to thatt Ho had
fallen into a hnbit vnnff .. !,
a which turned him awav from the firsc
v
situation he had ever applied for.

and Huntley drew
a deep breath of satisfaction.
"Now, sir, our money is safe; no burst

wnat we want, and here will be our

scene with far greater complacency
when he returned at the ' Appointed
time; content, too, and reassured, when
in a distant speck on the opposite road
he gradually came to recognize his
partner. Their undertaking had held
its share of danger. In those days a
man .on the quest for buying cattle
meant a man with ready money, whose
life would not be worth a moment's
Eurchase should he encounter any of the
iwless gentry of the day. The part-

Thus its situation had been concealed

Heaven that will overlook it; there is no

blasphemy.

but the other's abandon shocked him.
