An entlrey new anil modern Idea
in cemeteries will he carried out In
the new Rest-Haven Memorial Park
which will be laid out soon two miles
south of Eugene In the direction of
Spencer’s Butte The park Is primar­
ily intended to serve the people of
the Eugene an<6 Springfield vicinities.
The theory on which the promoters
of the Rest-Haven Park are working
Is that the entire park should be a
thing of beauty and a memorial to all
who rest there. There will be no
tombstones or tnounments. but rather
bronze tablets set in concrete even
with the surface of the ground, so as
not to be out of harmony with the
landscaping of the park.
The Rest-Haven Memorial Park
will be located on the rolling foot­
hills of Spenlers Butte, overlooking
the city of Eugene and the head of
the Willamette valley. The Three
Sisters and other snow-capped peaks
of the Cascades will be visible from
there. The site Is located a [»art from
any commercial development. A tract
of 78 acres has been purchased for
tbe park.
The natural beauty of the place
will be increased by careful landscape
gardening under the direction of
Edwin Clair Heilman. Corvallis land­
scape architect.
Ninety thousand
dollars will be spent In beautifying tin-
grounds. An underground system of
irrigation will be Installed, with a
number of fountains throughout the
park. In a small hollow there will
be a pond with swans. Rolling irlve-
ways will make every part of the
grounds accessible to motor cars. An
endowment fund of 375,000 will in­
sure the upkeep of the park.
The advisory board of directors ot
the park includes A. A. Rodgers, pre­
sident of the First National Bank of
Eugene, C. D. Rorer, president of the
Bank of Commerce; Judge Lawrence
, . Harris, Eugene attorney; A. R.
Tiffany, cashier of the Bank of Com­
merce; and Charles Wiper, manager
of the association. The First National
Bank is acting as the trustee for thte
association, of which every person
reserving a burial tract will be a
member.

The second dialogue picture from !
First National comes to the M e-'
Donald theatre today.
It Is his "Captive Woman,” and '
was adapted from "Changllng," a 1
dramatic story from the pen of Donn
Byrne.
Milton Sills and Dorothy
Maekaill are the featured players.
The story opens in a courtroom
when a very beautiful woman is on
trial for murder, switches to the South
Seas and back again to the court­
room. It Is a highly dramatic narra­
tive with many exceptional opportuni­
ties for effective dialogue.
Both Sills and Miss Maekaill are
players of extensive stage experience,
and the supporting cast was chosen
after careful voice tests.
