Hoover Left Orphan It was liack in ISS.'i that a little brown haired, freckle faced vmiiii: s(or tumbled off a Maire com-li down nt Newbenr. Ore., and fell in the linns of .his uncle. Dr. 11. J. .Miutliorn. He had. just arrived in Oregon from Iowa, where be bad been left an or phan bv the earlv demise of his father and bis mother, and had come to Oreiron to make bis home wilb bis uncle, ir- Minthorii. who at that time waH president of l'aeific academy, now l'acifie college. Young "Bert" Hoover was luckv in havimr an unele as president of the neiidemv, for, altbonuh be was mucli too voting to enter the institnliou mi ller ordinary conditions, llr. .Minthnrn permitted him to become a student. Then for three solid years il was all work and study for vnumr Hoov er. While other vounustcrs of bis aire were shimmr their time between Work nml play, he was devolini' both day nnd night to his books. This is the first known record of bis abil- .HE8.BER.Ti p. HOOVER-.

Ifoover Is Office Itoy V. .Div Mlinthorn then looked liround ' fpr some college or university to which he could send his voting neph ew, hut in those days Hoover's youth ful nge barred him from everv col lege where he attempted to enter. It was in the late fall of 1878 that n real, estate firm opened up offices in. Salem, down on Commercial street near ('hemekela. Charles It. Monies, prominent, republican leader and former state chairman of the parly, was a member of the firm. . It. tt. Cook, now Portland real estate deal er with offices in the Stock Kx rhnngo huililing. was another mem ber of the firm. "lterf Hoover was neither iunior partner nor clerk. He was the office boy, and once each mouth he came into possession of a salary check of :!. ".Hut I want, lo tell you that the office boys of today can learn a les son and a good one from the life of younir Hoover." said Mr. Cook yes terday in a reminiscent mood. "He didn't go sneaking around the cor ner of n forbidden whiff of the eornsilk cigarette. And be didn't loaf away bis evenings with the other yoniiL' people of the town. W'um ii J'oor Itoy "1 can see him now," mused Mr. Cook, "with bis shoulders hunched np over the little table in the corner wrestlintr with some problem in geometry, lie was always on the iump when be had work to do. 1ml the moment he bad finished the task before him out would come bis swm rtry or nlgclira or history and in a moment he would be wrapped up in his studies." For three- years "liert" Hoover worked as office bov for this real estate firm, and then in the early fall of 1K!H. when plans iv,.r(. bein'' Pa saijs'l holler less for cancfu when I have mi fill of Post Toasties Cdo&g Superior corn flakes rich in natural sweetness. i omplcted lor the formal opening ol' Slanlord university at I'alo Alto, ('a I., voting Hoover determined to i omplete bis education. "Itert" Hoover's financial condi tion was unt a comfortable otu;, but undaunted, be left for Stanford nearly a month before Ibe university npened and saw to it lhat he got a job in order that be might work his wav through school. At the time there was living in Salem, a prnmiu cnt banker, now deceased, who de cided to send bis sim to Stanford along with voting Hoover. The banker's son needed special instruc tion in some of the mathematical subjects before be could enter, so "Bert" Hoover contracted to tutor the bov for the price of a ticket to I'alo Alto, lie made good at the jnh and both bovs entered the nniversilv together. Younir Hoover was the first student to enter Stanford Salary as Kiijrjnecr JjifloOO T'or four years "liert" Hoover studied ami worked ami came into possession id" a miniu cenirinecr's sheeiwkin shortly alter he had at tained bis majority. Immediately after irraduulinn he was commis sioned bv a biir uiinimr firm to go to Australia til a salarv of ir(i.."(l(l a vear, and alter he ' had completed that work, be received uuolber offer which made him the highest priced man of his aire at lhat time. "It is only natural that I am tak insr a ureal interest in Bert's ad vancement, for be was almost like a son to me durinir his early boyhood at Newberir and Salem," said Mr Cook vcsterilav. "I was a ilircclor at Pacific academy when be attend ed school there, and I became more interested ill him when I saw how hard he worked and studied while he was our office hoy at Salem. I still keep and cherish the little worn ireonii'try bonk over which he worked so ninny hours at the office in Sa lem." I'riclitl of Senator McXiU'y Charles 1.. McN'ary. now I'liiled States senator from Oregon, was n close friend and schoolmale of vouin; Hoover durinir bis boyhood in Ore gon, ami others who have since be come prominent in state affairs re member him as n yoitmrster in the capital city. His uncle. Dr. 11. .1. Minthnrn, is now a practicing physician at New port, while an aunt. Mrs. I'hocbe Hammer, resides at Salem. Those who know Hoover during his bovhood in Oreiron, frankly sir. they do not know whether he is re publican or democrat, although t lie v stromily insist he is Ibe former. lie came from a (Junker family, and ii democratic (Junker family is some thing of an oddity. His family were all republicans for many years hack, say those who know. And when Her bert Hoover lived in Salem he be came a member of the Friends church out in Hiirhlund addition in Nortli Salem. He still retains membcrshii in this little church. Portland Ore- VASI.;TOf, .Ian. 30. A tenta tive contract between tho Culled States and Ihe canal companies and IrrlKattou district;!
