It has been the plan of those interested in the museum pro ject to ask families of the area having objects and articles of historical value to loan them to the museum in order that they might be displayed for the gen eral public. Meeker announces that the state society has prom ised support for the project and will loan back to the southern Oregon group for the museum certain historical articles now in state custody Value Seen "It' Is believed the local his torical group can be of great value in gathering local histori cal data and records, preserving objects, buildings and sites of historical interest and in co-ordinating the efforts of such his torically minded groups as the Jackson County Pioneer associa tion, Daughters of the American Revolution and Sons of the American Revolution," Meeker su-tes. "This section is rich in Oregon history and tradition and we have delayed too long in tak ing steps to properly care for these buildings and articles and in gathering and tabulating rec ords and information." In addition to the Jacksonville museum, other projects to be considered arc aiding the Klam ath Falls society with a celebra tion to mark the 100th anniver sary of opening of the pioneer Klamath Falls-Applegate road and planning a proper premiere performance of "Canyon Pass-j age," film mode in the county last fall by Universal Pictures of Ernest Haycox novel of early Jacksonville days.
