out <>f a rugged but stern frontier,
a civilization founded upon truth,

thought does dawn upon them it
brings them together in large num-
hers to pay homage to some heroic
man or incident, such aa occurred
at 1‘rovideoM church last Sunday
when descendants of pioneers and
friends gathered there to honor the
pioneers and Rev. Joab Powell in
particular.
From all over Willtmette valley

him a man with few equals and no
superiors in the service of his peo
ple. his state, hie church and his
Master the Reverend Joab Powell.
Relatives and friends from Eastern
and Southern Oregon were present
also, and all were glad to have been
there.
Sunday was such a day that God
and Nature love to commune, and
all mankind become akin. It was a
day <>f days in bringing bark sweet
