W ith the aid of our guide book we were to learn the name ot everyone o f these and understand its allegorical meaning. We kept this up fqr about tw o hours. A t the end o f that time our high ambition had fallen fiat and rea son was tottering on her throne. We decided that only the strong est intellect should attempt to comprehend the guide book or understand the architectural and decorative scheme o f the Panama-Pacific Exposition. We frankly confessed that it was too much for us. We perceived that a t the rate we were progressing it would take us about fifty years to get through. Aud as the fair lasts only a few months longer it seemed hardly worth while. So we abandoned educational uplift and cut loose from our guide book. We went on a grand joyous sight seeing “ja g .” When we saw anything labeled in plain English we rushed up to it and read the inlcription aloud while we fairly beamed at each other so pleased were we to find something we 90 uld actually' read and understand.

But I must say it would bare been more in teresting and instructive to the average visitor if everything had been plainly tagged and labeled. But o f course in that case there would have been no sale for guide books, and thus a large source of revenue would have been cut off. Seeing the fair is a stupendous undertaking.

GOLDEN WEDDING Joseph and Miriam Wilson Cele brate Event Tuesday, October 26. A t their home on the corner ot Chehalem and Wyaooski streets, Joseph and Miriam Wilson cele brated the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage on Tuesday, it having been a half century since they united their fortunes a t Carthage, Indiana, October 26, 1865, using the ceremony of the Friends church. A, family dinner was given at the noon hour and in the qfter- noon they received their relatives and a few neighbors and friends. The home was beautifully dec orated, with autumn leaves, yellow chrysanthemums and marigolds in the living rooms, and white chrysanthemums and yellow dahlias in the dining room, with centerpiece o f yellow coreopsis. The color scheme of white and .yellow was carried out in the refreshments. Mrs. Omar Fendall, Mrs. Clarence Kienle, Miss Eva Colcord and Miss Lois Wilson assisted in serving the refreshments. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson have one daughter, Mrs. S. J. Madson, of Newberg, who had charge ot the celebration, and one son, C. B. Wilson, connty clerk for Yamhill county. N. D. Elliott, o f Salem, and Mrs. Bernard Smith, of Mil waukee, the former a nephew and the latter a niece o f Mr. Wilson, Mrs. L . H. Shirley, ot Hillsboro, a niece o f Mrs. Wilson and C. B. ^Wilson and family from McMinnville, were in attend ance. " "l Joseph Wilson was .born at Fairmont, Indiana, February I I , 1840, and Mrs. Wilson was born a t Carthage, Indiana, December 31,1844. They came t o Oregon in M ay, 1889, and located at Newberg which has since been their home. ^Ü B : PAUL T.

We were so overcome that we like the sleepy man, had to sit down on a divan. We applied our handker chiefs to our eyes while our shoulders heaved with strange eternal convulsions. It certain ly is queer how art raised to the nth power affects susceptive people. A funny thing happened in the Horticultural building as I was wandering around looking a t the ferns and gold fish. A lady came in leading a little girl by the hand. “ Oh listen,” she sfud to the little giri, “just hear the gold fish sing.” M ay be they do. ButT think it wassteam pipes. We had a fine trip coming down on the steamer. Being down hill, of course it. was not rough at all.

John Fiske and Mrs. Baker have charge. Mrs. Balter has been in this school for several years, but this is Mr. Fiske’s first year in the county. Everything is moving nicely, as might be expected b> those who, knew of Miss LaOra Judy’s Work there, and who have the privilege of knowing the present teachers, and the community. The grounds have been cleared, and a new fence is being erected. In No. 10, West Chehalem, we found E. H. Anderson, a former Yamhill county teacher, and well known to many o f us, conduct ing a Latin class in the high de partment just as efficiently as it is done in the larger high schools. The small high schools can do good work in all branches not requiring laboratory j w o r k , which th^y are not usually pre pared tor, and the interest taken in the high school in West Che halem folly justifies the district in the expenditures necessary to maintain it. Miss Lela Hevland has charge o f the low er grades, and everything is in the best condition. « S S VARY KEN WORTHY MARRIED On October. 19, Miss M ary Kenworthy who taught in Pacific College tw o years, was- married to>Robert M.

Maris, o f Marshall, Mo., has been elected by tbe Board of Regents ot the Oregon Agricultural College to tbe posi tion o f state leader of county agricultural agents iu this state. He will fill the position made vacant by the resignation o f Professor H. T. French. >2,y. Mr. Maris is an Oregon boy and a graduate o f Pacific College and from tbe college of agricul ture o f the University o f Mis souri. While m the latter insti tution he specialized in dairying and rural economics. He also has taken advanced work at the University of Wisconsin. For the past year and a halt he has been county agent in Saline Connty, Missouri. Mr. Maris has also had wide experience in agricultural journalism. “ We made a careful canvass of the entire United States in an endeavor to find the best possible man for this position,” said Director Hetzel, of the extension service, in making the announce ment o f this election. jÄi r For the benefit o f the College Piano Fund Pti>f.

LAND SHOW NOW OPEN Agricultural Greatness o f Ore. gon Emphasized by Mag- nificient A rray o f Products. Once again Oregon’s agricul tural greatness is emphasized by a magnificient display o f soil products in Portland. In addi tion to the tons ot fruits, grains, grasses and vegetables, indus trial exhibits from tbe factories o f Oregon and the Northwest in general have a most important part in the exhibition covering more than 75,000 square feet. Tbe exposition opened Mon day, October 25 and will con tinue until midnight, November 13 Every day will bring forth some new feature in the amuse ment line and low excursion tares by the steam and electric lines serving Portland are an induce ment for people to visit the ex position before it closes. Many towns and communities have special days and it is now esti mated the total attendance for the eighteen days will exceed $150,000. The show will not be open on Sundays. The display from the fields, factories, forests and streams of Oregon is the greatest ever made and the exhibition will serve to bring about a better understand ing of what Oregon has, will and can produce. The show is al ready the means ot bringing many consumers and producers together with the result that new markets will be opened up for products from counties tak ing part in the 1915 exposition. in M ay he made a gon with his bride but returned to his work at Marshall, M is souri. Later, the place to which he has been elected became vacant, and his friends have been expecting that he would be chosen for it. When Gov. Withycombe was in Newberg recently, he ex- preesed a hope that he would be chosen by the Board o f Regents as be knew o f his work. -It is not likely that Mr. Maris will be able to close up his w ork where he is and return to Oregon before the end o f tbe year.
