Mineral of every known variety. Gold Hill will shortly expierence the biggest mining boom in the state's history. The immediate development of the Kellmar-Van Pet mines will start the entire county. Mines are now being opened and everyone in that part of the state is enthused. The ore is there. Seeing is believing Gold Hill is the home of immense cement works, a fruit shipping cen ter, a community surrounded by un developed ore beds and veines of gold, silver, copper, iron, quick sil ver and other mineral of great worth Large brick clay beds are now being opened there. And the building of a smelter is promised. Gold Hill is the making of a busy industrial city an ideal home city on the banks of the famed Rogue river which is alive with salmon, teasing the fishermen to come and play tag. At Gold Hill our entire party headed by Mr. Van Horn, one of the best known miners in the country, jour neyed up the mountains on a little prospecting and investigating trip. This climb will Jong be remembered by W. C. Repass, the champion snake fighter of the crowd, who killed a six year old rattlesnake—he has the rattles to prove the story. On the trip we took advantage of the beau tiful auto parka and “cooked our own” in Ashland, Corvallis and on Gales Creek. On nearing home we passed Messrs. Petersen, Kullander and Bush, who were starting on a like trip. Yes, the little vacation is worth the time—it is needed. Oregon is a wonderful state with a wonderful climate and a natural park and play ground all the way. “Bob” drove all the trip and he can now depend on our testimony for him being a reliable man at the wheel. HOW TO BUILD VERNONIA “Many towns,” says a correspond ent, “are ruled by a Czar,” whose name is Prejudice, Distrust, Envy and Hatred. Their very efficient secretary is Spite. “Any town that would build a bet ter city, must dethrone the Czar, banish the Trumvirate and fire their Secretary. If need be assassinate them all—and not get to work- “Other things are necessary to city building, but first of all prejudice, distrust, envy and spite must be sup pressed. No city can grow and pros per while they rule the minds of its citizens.” R. A. Long, founder of Longview, recently pointed out that every town must have a definite end in view— something toward which it can work. “Good government, city conveniences beautiful surroundings are worthy aims, but the best planned city is incomplete without the development of genuine community spirit and high civic ideals. These things do not come from capital investment, engineers and artitecta can not work them out by transit and blue print. “Community spirit and Christian ideals must come from the hearts of the men, women and children who live in the community; Christian idealism must be established in the soul.” Any town is a failure that does not exert itself to the utmost to give every man, woman and child within the boundaries, and opportunity to live happily; to improve mind, body and soul; to have healthful surround ings; honest work to do, and a good home. If Vernonia is to grow and prosper, the motive power behind it must be a spirit of faith, loyalty and enthusi asm glowing in the hearts and minds of its people who call it “Home.” OBITUARY Bernard W. Hall, whose death occured on the 28th of April, was born in Clay county, West Virginia, the 30th of June, 1910, In 1911 his parents moved to Wisconsin, where they resided until 1920 when they came to Oregon. Bernard was loved by all who knew him. He was a kind and obedient son, a tender and affectionate brother and will be greatly missed in the home by his father, mother and four younger sisters. The funeral services were conducted by Professor Jensen of Portland. Beautiful music was ren dered by a quartett and pianist from Laurelwood Academy near Gaston, Ore.
