T H U R SD A Y , JU N E 30, ’04 Forest Grove in Biography is not to be credited to the News, but is en tirely the result of the ability and en ergy of Mr. Ferguson, who makes this class of work his business. The data, the language and the credit is entirely his, yet we are glad to s;y amen to the many good things said of our citizens. ---------- 4 Mr. J. McC. Preston, who left Mon day morning after being with us for several weeks, is a type of man who leaves an impression upon all with whom he comes in contact. Starting out in life with his bare hands, by dint of hard work and careful management he amassed a fortune. Many are the men who bless Col. Preston for the kind turns rendered—many a young man can look back from the pinnacle of success and thank the same man for starting him along the pathway which led him to his present position. In all this Mr. Preston is too modest to let it be heralded be fore the world, but nevertheless to his credit it is placed in the Great Book where the seen and unseen acts of each one of us are recorded. His in fluence springs to a large extent from his interest in the young people and his interest in their aims and ambitions. Kind and sympathetic, with a large ex perience in life, his quiet influence is doing a world of good. Would there were more of Nature’s Noblemen such as he.
