ballot measure at the next elec
tion asking fnr a special levy for
the project, and the museum
funds would be administered by
the county court.
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.
The society is hopeful of hav
ing a membership of 1000 per
sons within the next few weeks.
Meeker states that annual dues
will be $2, half of which will go
to the state society.
