(Mary C3rlener)
After living In a noisy town
11 ko Medford, It In difficult to ad
JtiHt oneHelf to the hup pressed
silence of Kugene. It Is 10 o'clock
p m. perhaps every one has gone
to bed. Ajiywny, now that were
here, even The1 'OdT 'Fellows con
vention seems to have been a riot
ous affair In comparison.
The 200 or more ituslncss and
Professional women who gathered
In the woman's building on the
university campus tonight, raised
hardly a murmur In the hushed
ntmosphere and under the Influ
ence of Much scholastic solitude,
we Medford ites found ourselves
llp-toelng around back of the
other awed delegates to the state
federation 'convention. It must
be "the climate."
The soothing cordiality of Miss
Mozelle ' Hair, state federation
president, who extended greetings
to tho vlHltors, introducing them
ns a body to their Kugene hos
tesses, struck a warm response
In tho heartH of the .Medford dele
gation, who have had the pleasure
of entertaining this charming,
white haired executive many tlmen
In the past. They have not only
found her always sympathetic with
their work and local activities, but
ready with constructive Ideas ac
quired from her long experience
In the educational, field.
' There was a splendid program
of music at this evening's recep
tion, . including , an Instrumental
trio, pla.io and vocal solos.
- Feminine pulchritude seems to
have taken a roverso turn-r-and
the hack exposure provided for
In- tho spring and summer cos
tumes, was generally observed by
both visiting nnd local delegates.
In fnct a complete exposure nn
feminine vertebrne could easily
bo written by any ono who took
a back sent nt the reception to
night. Wo did. Hut wo won't.
Following the reception pro
gram, tho delegated strolled thru
tho Fine Arts Museum tn the
Women's building, nnd nt their
leisure viewed tho remarkable col
lection of Orfentnl relics nnd rnre
pieces brought bnck to this coun
try by Mr. and Mi's. Murray War
ner at Intervals since tho year
1900.
. Fine old mandarin costumes,
worn by the last royal family to
reign over the Munch it dynasty
are exhibited on life-slxed models
of the dowager princess and her
court. Tho life Ilko hlsauo nnd
plaster paris heads of these repro
ductions, like the costumes them
selves, products of CAlnee art.
'We were Impressed. Kvery one
elso was Impressed, both by the
artistic and financial wenlth rep
resented In the entire collection.
There, was one scholnstlc delegate.
however, who Whs ecstatic, Hhn
stood apart from the rest of the
mob, with her hnnds clasped pray
erfully before her, as she Inioned
profound queries on early Oriental
literature, to our guide In tho mu
seum. We followed the mob forth
Into the hushed night and left
our friend alone to the sacred at
mosphero within

and seasickness they reached Aa
pinwull on the Isthmus of of Pan
ama. Crosjiing the isthmus on a
little narrow gauge train they
again took shop, and came to Ran
Francisco. After a short rest they .
again took ship for Crescent Cltv -There
was then no deep harbor
at Crescent City so the ship hove
to some distance out. . The passen
gers wero euch wrapped In the old
Stars und Stripes, hi rapped Into a,
chair and let down over the side ,.
of the vessel' onto a lighter and ..
and from that they were trans
ferred to a raft and brought" In
Htill nearer to shore where they
clunihercd onto u dray which waw
bucked out into the surface as far
as wus sufe and so was, driven off
to the only hotel in the place.
After a day or' two wait they
Joined a donkey pack train for
Klrbyville (now Kirby, Mrs. John
wus given the only horse In tho
train to ride. After three days
travel, cuniplng at night by 1h
side of Ihe trail crossing canyons
and ravines on trees felled across
for bridges with streams swollen
by Hpcing rains nnd melting snows
often having to tuck their feet up
on top' of their mount . to keep
them dry and so arrived at Klr
byville. She was met at Klrby
ville by her husband and Mr. God
frey. They lived at Klrbyville for
moro than eight months and in
that time she never saw a white
woman, but many -stoical China
men canie to look curiously at. a
whitu Mellcan cook. They came to
Williamsburg (now Williams) in
1801, arriving on Christmas Hvo.
where a Christmas dance and gen
eral good time was In progress but
being entire strangers, felt1 rather .
alone nnd so retired to their room
but not to sleep. Soon after tier
husband, Mr. Godfrey, was drown .
ed In tho Applegate while making
a trip to Jacksonville, and it being
the days before telephones it was
two or three duys before, she
knew of the awful accident.
Alone except for an Infant
daughter, among strangers hund- '
reds of miles from her people, but
being of the staunch pioneer
stock of the pilgrim fathers she
carried braVely on through day
that tried men's hearts but which
brought out the bost and forged
friendships which nothing could
break. .
Bho married Mr. John In 1S6S
he having. . sailed around Cape
Horn from Wales (In .the same
ship in whloh she had sailed from
New lork, the. year before.: tho
John M. Sullvun.)
Mrs. John had lived to see trav
el advanced from the sailing ves
sel to the pack train to the auto
mobile, the flying machine and the
submarine; lighting from the pine
snot, tne grease lamp, and the tal
low candles, molded at home,; to
the pushing of a button and flood
ing a whole city with light; cook
ing from the old Dutch oven and
the skillet and lid tn front of an
open . fire to the electric range
which, sets itseif; from a weekly
mall to the dally rural route; the
wireless and the telephone and
the -radio with, news, music and
lectures from out the air.
Our old pioneers are ' passing.
But few are left such as she. They
made possible all those modern
conveniences nnd luxuries we now
enjoy and we stand with uncovered
heads and thankful hearts before
them.
Tho trail, the forest, the moun
tain stream, have been conquered,
but to us there Is left a different
task, the white man' burden, the
nromernooa or man. - ..- ;
May we be given the courage,
the strength, the wisdom to do our
task as bruvely and an wisely as
they did theirs, that the coming
generations may look to ua with
as much gratitude as we to them.
