Deceased was buried on Thursday January 31st, in tbe Riverside cemetery at Portland. A special car conveyed the mourners and friends to the cemetery and return. Odd Fellows Pledged to Help Library The Odd Fellows, were taken somewhat by surprise at their meeting last Satur day night when George Preston, in a few well chosen remarks suggested that the members of the order could do noth ing lietter toward the elevation of the boys and girls of Gresham than to loyal ly support the Gresham library, there by tnakeing it possible to have the read ing room open more often, and to give to the citizens of Gresham and those visiting the town a chance to spend a pleasant hour in the library rooms. The remarks of Str. Preston struck a respon sive chord in the breast of every Gild- Fellow present, eact one indicating his pleasure at being able to help along a gisxl thing by immediately making ap plication to become an annual member of the library association. The lodge also passeii a resolution pledging the library its hearty support. It win also suggested that in as much as the business houses are closed all day Sunday, it would be a good thing to have tho library opened to the public on Sunday afternoons. Many visitors are coming to the towu and our boys and girls like to have a plate wherein they mav gather for an hour or so.
