We are now far enough away from the Civil war so that this semi-burlesque on a thrilling adven ture of the great conflict can safely be shown on either side of Mason and Dixon's line without inviting either riot or resentment. The story of the stealing of the locomotive called "The General" and the train it drew, by a group of northern men was a real incident of thrill and daring. The locomotive "The General" has been preserved and now stands in the depot of the Southern railroad in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where it is an object of curiosity to the tourist. Such an organization as the Ore gon Dairymen's association is of val ue to the farmer because it tends to closer cooperation, which is some thing the farmer needs and must have in his business. City or town peo ple organize readily for their daily experience constantly shows them the fruits of organization. The average farmer, living and working in indi vidual independence is inclined to shy at organization. The remarks of Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence that "mankind is more disposed to suffer while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed" might be applied to our present state taxation muddle. It looks as if some accustomed forms in the way of protecting incomes and intangibles will have to be shattered and the leg islators are being forced into action in unaccustomed places. ELKINS J. A.

Card of Thanks We wish to thank the many friends for their kind words of sympathy and beautiful floral offerings at the time of our recent bereavement; also the Homelike society of the Evangelical church for their message of sympathy. Mrs. Flora Clow and Family Children's Farm Home News At the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Children's Farm Home which was held on Jan uary 8, 1927 the same officers were re elected, Judge Walter H. Evans, pres ident; A. C. Schmitt and Leslie But ler, vice presidents;. II. C. Seymour, secretary and J. Allen" Harrison, treas urer. The reports showed the work was in fine condition. Out big fam ily of boys and girls are happy and busy with their school work. The school under the leadership of Prof. Robert Barnett of the Monmouth Nor mal is doing splendid work. We have the five cottages and the Lane county people are busy getting the furnish ings for the sixth. Coos and Curry and Clackamas counties are pushing their campaigns for county cottages and other counties are falling in line so that in a few years we will Jbe able to care for more than two hundred children. At present we have one hundred and five and expect to have twenty more in the Lane county cot tage very soon. .. These children are from every part of the state and nearly every county is represented. Our new superintendent, Mr. A. C. Heyman, is taking hold of the work in good shape and we have, every reason to be encouraged over our out look. The Christmas season was a very happy one at the Home. All met in the school auditorium on Christmas eve for a Christmas tree and enter tainment. On Christmas each of the cottages had a tree and dinner. Ev ery cottage had a turkey and all the fixings that go with it, through the generosity of Mrs. C. S. Jackson, and other friends supplied all the oranges, candy and nuts that were needed. Corvallis and Albany creameries fur nished ice cream. Gifts for the children poured in for days before 5?-. Bnrauk Crane Says 9 .vdt,' I IM1 1.0YE IS IMPORTANT Probably the most "important crisis in any individual's life is when he or she falls in love. This is. the most intense experience to. which humanity is subject. It has more to do with the happi ness of one's life, more to do with the making' or unmaking of - one's character than almost anything else. Most of us do not live in our intelli gence, Imt we live in our emotions. We live by sentiment And the ex perience of falling in love stirs the deepest emotions of the human heart. It is doubtful whether any creative work is ever undertaken unless under the stimulus of this passion. We know that the finest in poetry, in music and in literature owes to it its inception. It is more important for a man to pick out the kind of woman whom he is to love than to make any other de cision. And it is well known that love plays the most important part in every woman's lite. Love has been responsible for most human happiness and for a great part of human tragedy. There is no crisis in one's career where he needs to use more judgment and guiding intelligence than in this crisis. Love is one of those inspirations Christmas. Truly the friends of the Home have been more than generous and we thank you one and all. The East Side American Can Com pany of Portland remember the Home each Christmas with a fine gift and this year was no exception. Under the leadership of Mr. Robert Smith they provided the equipment for the Manual Training department of the school. We now have both the Man ual Training and Domestic depart ments and this means much in the education of our children. Our friends at Hood River provided 235 : boxes of apples. These were collect ed and sent by Mr. Leslie Butler. We have had more than 7000 quarts of fruit and 700 fine .comforters donated by friends over the state, which will supply the need for some time. We are very happy over this report land that we have been able to care for these little ones. But there are still many needs. Our greatest need at present is for farm equipment as we hope to farm our land more ex tensively this year, and for general equipment and improvements for the Home and grounds. We will be very glad to receive contributions to help in purchasing this equipment. All correspondence and money should be sent to the office secretary, Mrs. Madge J.
