Last Saturday morning did not dawn * very bright but it failed to discourage t the High School students who gathered *1 at Elliott's dock at seven o’clock, ready for the.early stnrt to’lhe Gurilmldi beach, ** The lunch baskets were deposited in *’the bow and amid a llutter ot hand- r- kerchiefs the merry party stalled on its pi way The Antelope made good time and w as in. soon at the Beal's place on the bay where ■< it stopped to get Gladys, Helen and Wl Burr on board. "I They reached Garibaldi at nine o'clock * and after disembarking they all started for the beach. The morning was spent in visiting the Life Saving station anil the Look Out House, from where the Tillamook Rock Light House could plainly be seen. Afterwards everyone went back to camp where coffee was made and served by Miss Shirk and Miss Centerwall, and a good hearty lunch was eaten hy the hungry crowd. The afternoon was spent in various ways, but all reported n good lime when they again met together at the launch After a hasty lunch at five they started back up the bay leaching home in safety or twice for »light injuries and short arguments, There is a question yet as to who the game belongs to. But if the H. 8 can do whac she did last time after spending a day on the beach there is no question as to how the next game will turn out. The game was a tie, 24 to 24, just be fore the whistle blew when a foul was called on Bay City, and a foul basket thrown making the score 25 to 24 in favor of the H. S. One of the timekeep ers said the w histle blew while the ball was in the air and just befere it hit the basket, but the other failed to see how he conld tell whether it was in the air or not when be was looking intently at his watch. It was agreed after the game to play again, but Bay City can not fulfill the agreement as they hnve no place to practice. K « S Van Camp’s Pork and Beans. The Van Camp‘family were a very poor Dutch family at the beginning of iny story. The Van Camps had two children, a boy lfans, end a girl Lena, but they were both very small when they came from Holland. At the time my story opens Hans was five and Lena three years of age. When they landed in lodianapolia, Indiana, they were nearly out of mon-y, so Mr. Van Camp set to work nt various jobs, while Mrs. Van Camp took care of the children. But soon she thought of a good scheme, aud with what looney they ha<l lliey bought a little one loomed store in a locality quite suitable. An advertisement waa soon swinging before lhe door ill big black letters which lead, ” Van Camp's Pork and Beans. ' Boon the place was sought by people from all parts of the city, and touieel tbeir ordeis a larger establishment must be found. Very often customers went away crest fallen when they could not get any of the delicious beans. They soon bought a larger building which they fitted up for that purpose, and their business flourished Orders were con stantly coming from all parts of the city, so to oblige the orderers, Hans and Lena were fitted out with a small auto mobile to deliver. It was the height of their delight to tour the city, Ilans the Cliaffeur, and Lena by his side, her quaint little Dutch bonnet flying in the wind, and the large can of beans on her lap And so they worked on for months, which soon grew into years. Bars and Lena did not keep at their work long, as an education was necessary, " Van Camp's Pork aud Beans" are now known all over the world as u delicious dish. Hans is the overseer of the establishment, with a young and happy wife at hi« side. The establish, ment has grown to an immense factory supplying the world with its products. Lena is the beautiful wifeof a New York banker, who can well be pioud of her. V iola M acks a a a Thomaa B. Macaulay. One day Donald’s mother told him that it was time to go to the pasture after the cows, and this is w-liat he said, “I do wish there had never been such a thing as a pasture, any way.” ‘ A very unthouglitful wish, to say the least, my son,” Baid the mother. “ Why aren’t you ever thankful tor the many blessings you receive?" “Ugh! I don’t call pastures bless lugs,’’ said Donald. “ You may be glad to be surrounded by such beauties of nature some time, my boy.’’ " Perhaps so,” was the youth’s ear castic reply. A few days after this conversation, Donald read au advertisement in the daily paper which ran as follow: ’• Wanted, a steady boy to do office work. *Work easy. Reasonable pay." As Che boy read this his heart leapt fjr joy. The next morning, against the will of his holiest old parents, lie began prepartions for going co the city. Just after noun, he liade them farewell and took leave of the old farm of hie boyish youth. He thought to himself as his car glided on toward the great ci.y of Chicago, ’’ From this time on my work will tie merely play ” However, the boy’s ideas of city life changed after a few- dais in the office of Mr. IV. He became dissatisfied, of c iurse ami decided to try something different. It was not long before lie came in contact with other boys not unlike himself, ami his morals became very low. He went on in this way for several years, never working unless absolutely necessary, until at last he became broken down in health and spirits He n iw longed for a comfort ing word, an atmosphere live from dust, and a glimpse of the open country fields. Would he go back to Ins old country home ? No. The very lemem. brance of his parent s counsel, com pelled him to abandon such a thought. So lie just existed, finding uocomfort at all ill life. How much better it would have been for him had he taken some advice. How much better it would be for all of us if we were thankful for the many bless ings we receive dally, but of which we take no notice and do not in the least appreciate. J B. a a a Alumni Notes.

J H. S ■ Thomas B. Macaulay was born in England, October 35th. 1800, His father was a Scotch Calvinist, and was a strong tieliever in anti-slavery, His mother was an English Quaker, She bad ii gentle disposition and molt great pride In her boy. At the age cf three Macaulay read incessantly, and was fond of telling what lie read. He would tell Ilia nurse endless’stories w hen out walking, and would compare his eiery day life with what he read in books. He thought more of his books than of bit toys. Afier leaving a private school al Cambridge, lie entered Cambridge Uuiveraity. While there lie.met several young uieu who were interested io literature, and who had a great Influence over Ilia after life, lie received a fel lowship while at college. After leaving college he studied law, and was admitted to the bar, but did not practice much. He was elected to Parliament from Edinburg. His first great oration was in 1831, and was on "Die Refoims Bill." All that was needed to fill the house was "Macaulay was np." He ran for re-election, but was defeated. He was elected Supreme Council of India, and helpa-d frame the code of laws for the government of India. On Ills return from India he waa again elected to Parliament. He was made Lord Rector of lhe University al Glasgow, and was elected Profesaer of Modern History, lhe latter position he declined, as he wished to have the lime to finish his " History of England.’’ His best poeticil work was ” Lays of Ancient Rome.'' Among his other writings were the ' Ivory," and " Mil lon, and the unfinished "Armada." He died in December, 185U E A. march is , 1909 OLD PAT PASSES AWAY. POWER OF WATER. His Lifeless Body Found in the Road Opposite the Summit House. Under Certain Condition» It Is Prac tically Irresistible. Another well known character of Till amook County has passed away, but he will be remembered for a good many years by those who ha vet raveled over the mountains from North Yamhill to Tilla mook City, for Pat Doughney. who oc cupied the Summit House for a number ol years, always bad a warm house and a warm heart in welcoming those who were numbed and cold traveling over the mountains in winter. Put Pat is no more. He was suddenly called to his rest, where he had spent so much of bis time alone, at the Summit. Poor Pat was an object of sympathy in some re spects, for he seems to have had an idea that liis duty was at the Summit house. Pat was in town last week and left on the stage Thursday evening for the Sum mit. His health had been breaking up for several months, being troubled with his heart and sinking spell, and it was only a short time ago that George W. Gravson advised him not to go to the Summit house for fear that something might happen him, hut he persisted, say that he would just as soon die there as anywhere else. And. sure enough, lor as the driver of the west bound stage drove up to the Summit house with the expectation of hearing Pal’s welcome voice, there, prostrated in the road, was the lifeless body of Old Pat. commonly called by that name. Mr. Grayson was advised ol the death while at the Trask house, and he made arrangements to bring the remains from the Summit to this city, reaching here on Tuesday morning, and in the afternoon ol the same dav the mortal remains of Old Pat were laid to rest in the Oddfel. lows cemetery, his relatives and a few citizens showing their last token of re pect by covering his resting place with flowers. Patrick Doughney was born ill Ireland in October, 1837, andcaine to the United States in 1856, and resided in Oregon for 50 years, in Yamhill and Tillamook counties. Previous to making his home at the Summit, he drove stage. He has two children living, Mrs. Alley, wife of County Commissioner H. V Aliev, and Clarence L. Doughney. both of Nehalem For many years Pat Doughney had kept the Summit House, w here he died, a way place on the North Yamhill- Tillamook toll-road It was the only human habitation between Sampson’s Mill, on the Yamhill side, and Trask, on the Tillamook side, a stretch of 25 miles of the wildest kind of mountain mail. Year after yiar Doughney lived them alone, and for weeks at a time.the only face he would see was that of the mail carrier who passed twice a day. In winter the snow often reached up to the eaves of the house, and sometimes the road would be blockaded for sev era! days or weeks, < even the mail carrier and his pack horses failing to get through. Doughney kept good supplies of pro visions on hand fur thèse occasions, and in his younger days hunted enough to have venison when he need ed it. In Summer the mail company oper. ated a stage and carried passengers and many campers bound for the Tillamook beaches passed over the toll . road. Wayfareis always found Doughney a genial host, and in this way lie became known to hundreds of people. There is scarcely a traveling salesman on lhe Pacific Coast who ‘•made’’ Tillamook that did not know Pat Doughney. Pat was not averse to taking a bit of the potheen on occa sions, and travelers who knew him generally saw to it tliat he l.ad enough on hand for an occasional nip. When Doughney first went to live at the Summit House he owned a dog. But the dog aged faster that did Pat, and Anally (lied. After a time one of the hermit's waggish friends sent him a pig for company. The pig got lone some and squealed so continually that Pat couldn't sleep. so he shot the young porker. Since lhe railroad will be carrying passengers to Tillamook before many months, Pat Doughney s occupation of keeping a warside inn would soon ! have been gone had he lived It is : doubful if he will have a successor at I the Summit House. Mr. and Mrs. H. V. Alley and Clarence L Doughney wish to thank George W. Grayson and others for their kindness ar.d those who sent flowers, in connec tion with the death and burial of the deceased.

A man who admitted that he came direct from state prison tried to sell to the city editor of a New York news paper a weird and startling story of a missing will which he declared had been revealed to him by a fellow con vict. He was a burly fellow with a prognathous Jaw. and he bad lost an eye In battle. The mere look of him would frighten a timid citizen Into tremors. Mr. White, the expert In criminology, cross examined the man as follows: “Why were you In Auburn?" “Highway” (meaning, of course, high way robbery). “I suppose you were wrongfully con victed.” "Nuh; dey had me right.” Such engaging candor made Mr. White feel that the man was truthful, and he was greatly disappointed when strict investigation disclosed the fact that the story of the missing will was all fictitious. The man was disap pointed, too, at the failure of his ro mance, but he went away from the newspaper office In cheerful mood, with some remark about better luck next time. A week later Mr. White was sum moned to the reception room of ths newspaper, and there he found his friend, the burly highwayman, his shoulders broader, bls single eye fiercer than ever. But his visit was quite friendly, although somewhat tinged with business. He evidently believed he could rely on Mr. White's good faith and business acumen.
