Last Sunday Evening
An auto accident occurred at Day-
ton last Sunday evening in which
seven Newberg people narrowly es-
\ -caped death and M ia Lula Youngs,
niece of F. A. Youngs of this city,
‘ was quite severely injured. The
story as told In the Oregonian is as
follows:
j
Dayton, Or., Dec. 8.— By alight
ing with the tonneau across a hole
In the ground here today, an auto
mobile saved its sevlh occupants
from serious injury in a tumble
from the Terry street bridge 29 feet
to the ditch. The passengers were
thrown into the hole and escaped
being crushed by the weight of the
machine, which was too large to fit
into the depression in the ground.
The only injured were Mrs. J. R.
Griffiths, bruises and cuts about the
head, and Miss Lulu Youngs, bask
wrenched. They were attended by
Dr. R. L Ball of Dayton, who said
their injuries were not serious.
The machine was driven by Geo.
W. Pratt. He said as he approached
_ the bridge he was unable to see the
road on account of the blinding
lights of an approaching car. His
machine struck the railing of the
bridge and pjunged Into the ditch,
landing upside-down.
Others in the party were Hisses
Anna Liest and Maurlne Youngs and
3. P. Griffiths and W. H. McCor
mack- AU member were from New-
berg. They were on their way home
from Salem, where they had attend
ed the Sunday echool con-veiltion of
the Tree Methodist church. All of
the oocupants of the ear wbre pinned
under it and were released by by
standers.
Mlsa Youngs was brought back to
- Newberg in a local ambulance and
has been under the doctor's eare
since that time. Her condition is
quite serious although It is thought
that
she is j improving

PRESIDENT PENNINGTON'S.
TRIP TO THE MIDDLE WEST
The life of a college professor is
a very strenuous one. President
Pennington of the local college Is on
the go practically all df the time.
He is a man of remarkable vitality
and accomplishes an amount of work
which would stagger most men and
yet in spite of that he always finds
time to get a little news for the
Graphic or help on some worthy
cause that needs his assistance. The
Graphic Is in receipt of a letter from
Mr. Pennington, written the day be
fore Thanksgiving and which we re
ceived the day after, which we pub
lish herewith. The letter does not
tell one fractional part of the many
things which President Pennington
will crowd into the next few weeks,
hut it does give a little inkling of
his activities.
November 22. 1222.
The Graphic,
Newberg, Oregon.
Gentlemen:
I’m going to the land of the Hooe-
iers and the Wolverines, starting
8nnday night. I shall be away for
nearly two weeks. I am going to
attend the executive committee meet
ing of the Five Team Meeting of
Friends in America. Before I re
turn r shall apend a day with my
father and his eight living children,
if present plans go through success
fully. We have been together only
once since 1821.
This week Friday I shall be In Eu
gene, giving an address before the
Independent Colleges association on
"The Place- of Religion in Educa
tion."
Sunday morning I am to preach at
the Congregational church at Corval
lis.
Tomorrow Pm going to eat tur
key.
I could tell you a lot more about
myself, but what's the user "Ay
t’ank dare bane too much said al
ready." Sincerely yours,
Levi T. Pennington, president.

The next number of the Pacific
College lyceujm jeaiilB- will « c u r on
Monday evening, December 18, and
it promises to be One of the beet of
the year. The Pacifie college school
of music will be in charge of the pro
gram. and will be assisted by lead
ing local music Ians on the etrlngs.
So many free concerts are given
by the Pacific College school of mu
sic. in which Profcesor Alexander
Hull participates as vocalist or ’cel
list and Mrs. Bva H. Hull as pianist
or violinist, that it was with some
little trepidation that they mere put
on/ the regular lyceum course last
year. There waa no doubt of their
artistic ability— no company on the
course could furnish fiber music—
.but there was a doubt as to the re
ception which would be aeleorded
them In the.regular course by a
Newberg audience which bears them
so often gratis.
The result of putting these musi
cians In the regular course was,
howevsr.
extremely
gratifying.
There waa a heavy single admission
sale, an enthusiastic reception by a
delighted audience, and a call for
another concert in the course tlfts
year. They will give a program
even more varied ban delightful than
that of lapt year.
‘ The general admission for this
number will be 60 cents. It would
not be fair to the performers nor the
course to put the charge lower. Here
la a real opportunity for the publie
which eat frequently enjoys the mu
sks of Mrs. Eva H. Hull and Professor
Alexander Hull free, to shorn. appre
ciation by hearing thorn when they
and their assistants are to receive
a modeat bonorlum for their mnsic.
