Snow - accept a belief, doubted by some, that the first written use of "Ore gon" as a place name was by the famed Maj. Robert Rogers, leader of Rogers Rangers and hero of Ken neth Roberts' historical no vel "Northwest Passage." He , said Rogers wrote a letter in 1765 referring to ". . . the river called by the Indians Ouragon." This pre sumably was the Columbia river. Snow said the word was commonly used by In dians and the French in the 17th and 18th centuries to mean a dish or drinking vessel made out of birch bark. Snow admitted he didn't know how Indians came to apply the name to the great river of the west. He specu lated that "perhaps the . birch-bark dish was a trad ing commodity between the natives of the Mississippi valley and those of the West." SPRECKELS SUGAR h Powdered or Light.

Although she al ways wanted her share of food, she was not particularly greedy. She proved her gen erosity frequently by sharing a choice tidbit with a monkey friend, something a little un usual among monkeys. Even though she had a great and constant fondness for the iron ring that was suspended by a rope from the ceiling of her cage, and considered it to be hers alone, she would some times allow one of her cagi mates to swing on it for a lit tle while. Lucy was what the zoologist terms a "nejy ttorld monkey." That is, she hid a long, pre hensile tail-' with which she could hang from a tree branch or use to extend her reach for food that was beyond the range of her arms or legs. With this sensitive tail, soled on the j inside tip like her hands and feet, she could pick up small objects. She was well equipped; in reality she had five "hands." Loved Grapes She was fond of all kinds of fruit, and lost her head en tirely when a goodly supply was available. She loved grapes the best. It was an amusing spectacle to see her juggle a couple of dozen grapes. She would hold her head far back each time she bit into one so that she would not lose a single drop of the sweet juice from the first half dozen, down the outside of her face. Then, as the edge of her appetite was dulled, she would begin stor ing the grapes in her hands. Here was where the hilari ous part came in, for as soon as her hands and feet were full, and more was being of fered, she would try crowding more in each hand; then try holding some in the tip-end of her tail. Decision The amused bystanders kept handing her more. Grapes, be ing nearly round and rather smooth, popped out in all di rections. In chasing them across the cage floor those she still held in her hands would get away. At such times she was faced with a great and terrible decision: to hold onto what she already had or risk some of them in trying to rescue those that had rolled away. Often she would try to hold a few grapes under her chin, but in order to look up to see if more were forthcom ing she would raise her head a little and away they would roll. Still, she was riot necessari ly greedy. Many of us have eyes larger than our stomachs, and being hungry or foresight- ed, we bite off more than we can comfortably chew. Neither could it have been wholly selfishness, for she had been generous many times by shar ing with other of her kind.
