BIG APPLEGATE, June 29. (Spl.) What might otherwise have been somewhat solemn occasion given a dash of old-fashioned humor when Logan Woolrldge, graduate of a log school house at Missouri Fiat addressed his audience as one of eleven pioneers honored at the dedl cation of the Pioneer ' bridge at Applegate Saturday afternoon. "I'm the healthiest person in tnis crowd, have had no doctor bills in all of my seventy-nine years, and have never been In a hospital," Mr, Woolrldge declared, "and I owe this to practice of the Golden Rule and to always voting the Democratic ticket," the pioneer climaxed his speech In a booming voice that car ried to his listeners, In spite of the annoyance of a stiff afternoon breeze. Attired In striped overalls, and with corner of a blue bandana charac teristically edging from a coat pocket, the rotund Mr. Woolrldge opened his address with "young, good looking, bad and old,' and told of his early boyhood at Missouri Flat, where there waa no school district and where he attended school In a 14x10 log house in which a piece of muslin served in an aperture as a door. The cabin stood on the Basey place, now owned by Jim Cook, and possessed no desks and only backless benches to sic on. but to add lnteret to the school day routine, the speaker declared the teacher whipped him every day for three months. This Dioneer. who has lived on Applegate longer than any other per son, has been away from his ranch home but a few times In his life, and says he has read but very little, draw ing his conclusions from his own observations. He spoke briefly of the days of ferry boats, toll bridges, and lumber schooners at Crescent City. Mr. Woolrldge is a good friend of everybody, and likes his neighbors and their wives, he declared, and for that reason "takes no stock In the tenth commandment." In the zest of his speech he forgot favorite topic", and later asked for few moments In which he recalled among other historical facts, tne naming of Graves creek, where a young girl, a member of a party of early adventurers piloted through southern Oregon by Lindsay and Jesse Applegate In 1840, was burled after a brief Illness. Today the white oak tree that stood over the grave Is destroyed, Mr. Woolrldge said, and the Pacific highway covers the loca tion of the grave. Asking her mother, as a little child. where the gate was with the apples on it Is the earliest recollection which Miss Mary A. Mee, 72, who has charge of a drug store at Central Point, has of the Applegate, she said. Miss Mee spoke to some extent of the terrlflo floods of '81 and '00, which swayed the first bridge In southern Oregon built at Applegate by her father, the late Thomas Mee, in 1873.

Warren Mee, 06, brother of Miss Mee, also gave a brier comment. Mre. Aurlel Keeler Clark of Eugene waa an unexpected guest of the after noon, and was asked to give a few remarks. Mrs. Clark Is the daughter of Colonel Keeler, first representative to the state legislature from Jackson county, for whom Keeler creek, trlbu tary of Applegate, waa named. Colonel Keeler established the first southern Oregon trading post, where the Kubll ranch now Is situated, which also Is the site of the first Orange hall. Fritz Ruch, 74, of Missouri Flat re called a few of the hazards of earl; aays, and spoke of standing on horse's back when crossing the Apple- gate, to avoid getting wet In the flood waters. Manley Rexford, 77, also was present and honored as a pioneer, as were Newton Hasklns, 84, who came here a few days ago from Pekln, Hl and W. H. Jordan, 74, who did not feel well enough to appear. Assuming the quietude of their eighties. Mrs. Sarah Cantrall, 89, and Mrs. Anna Dorn, 80, both of Jackson ville, did not respond with a talk, but were assisted from their chairs and gave a cheery smile, the former re taining her energetlo spirit, even against the counsel of a watchful daughter who did not wish her mother to -rise. Mrs. Louisa Ray. 87. rose as she was introduced, then at the close of the ceremonies, with a simple gesture of a pocket knife, sat In her chair and snipped the white ribbon offic ially opening the steel span to traf fic and long, long years of service. 4-SQUARE PULPIT ReT. and Mrs. J.

SKILLED LABOR SHORTAGE SEEN SCRANTOH, Pa. (UP) An In crease in the tempo of industrial activity has revealed a dearth of skilled labor In many lines, regional directors of the International Cor respondence schools report to officials of the schools here. "One of the unexpected results of the depression years," Ralph E. Weeks. president of the schools, said, "Is that now when sn Industry urgently needs highly skilled men, It finds in many cases there sre not a sufficient num ber to fill the demand. "Many of the older men have died DIVISION OF CHRYSLER MOTORS and others have moved in an effort to secure jobs. As a result, it hss become a real problem to train quall fled skilled help."

Freshly shaven men lack the mascu line air of the heavy bearded wild western type, Harris said. Even to day, a stocky growth of whiskers de notes resl manhood and romance to the "weaker sex," though they won't admit It. "Women stlU feel, down deep In their hearts, Just as the actresses of '48 did, that a kiss without a beard Is nothing, but one with a full beard is heaven." , However, the beard must be a type which meets the desires of women, make the most delicious jelly and jam SPEAS w.
