Reports Tell Events in Trip (Continued rom page 1) The guide next led us to the stairway to the tower. After we had climbed to the top of the tower we looked out over Salem. We could see the oldest school this side of the Missouri River. After coming down from the tower we each received , a gold seal with Earl Snell’s signature on it. We left the Capitol and started for home, but due to car trouble we were delayed several hours. We returned home about 12:00 o’clock p. m. happy and tired. Marietta Hodgson TRIP TO SALEM by FRANCES CARRICK The Seventh and Eighth Grade girls’ and boys’ classes were taken to Salem Tuesday by Mr. Gibson. next rooms were rooms which had little cages on each side of the doors which could only be unlocked by the guard. We visited the room where some of the cells were. We only saw two prisoners. • The next room we passed into was the dining room. It was full of tables and benches. In one cor ner of the dining room was an iron cage which is up from the floor. It is for the guards to watch over the prisoners and to see that they don’t break prison. The next place we visited was the Capitol. Inside of the Capitol in the entrance hall are four large pictures showing the early happen ings o Oregon. We first went to the House. There are sixty members in the House. On the floor is a carpet cn which the design is an Oregon tree, the Douglas Fir. It is in the House where the House mem bers and the Senators meet because the room is larger. The Governor’s office is on tne second floor just the same as the House and Senate is. In the wait ing room of the office there is a large round table. It has forty kinds of wood in the table. In the middle of the table there is a pic ture of the old State Capitol Build ing as it was before it was burned in 1935, Then we went into the office where ha meets the public. In this office he has two chairs that are done in needle-point cost ing $450 each. We went to the left of the office into a room which is called the Board of Control. It has a long rounded table i.i it which has chairs around it. There is at the head o' the table three chairs where the Governing Secretary of State and the Treas urer sit and the other chairs are Western Championship RODEO Rose Wall, Manager The Pick of the Top Hands from the Entire West in a Rip-Snorting Competition —4 Great Shows— Carloads of Wild Horses, Steers and Brahmas :k Riding Brahma Bill and his Trained Bull Steer Wrestling r Roping Bror tc Riding Mad Scramble Races 6 J A N T Z EN Aug. 2—Friday Evening Aug. 3—Sat.

Then we went up to the tower of the building on which stands the statue of the early Oregon Pioneer. REPORT OF WENDELL RIGGINS The Boys and Girls Sunday School Class left Vernonia at 9:00 o’clock for Salem. There were 21 boys and 9 girls, the two teachers and the bus driver and his wife. Mr. Gibson treated the classes to ice cream when we reached Banks. We arrived in Salem about 11:40 and ate our lunches in the park beside the Capitol building. At one o’clock we went to the State Penitentiary where we were guided through. The library was the first place where we were guided, then into the auditorium, then through the dining room and kit chen. Due to having 1032 prisoners the dining room is filled twice and they are having to build on to the building because of so many. The cells of the Penitentiary are small rooms with just bed, dresser and chair. On each of the cell doors the name and number are printed on the card. Many o'f the men were working so the ceUs were empty although some were shut. Many of the prisoners were playing ball but a guard is watching every move’ they make so they have no way to escape. We went to the Capitol building about two o’clock and were led through by the Secretary of State, Earl Snell. Mr. Snell told about the ten pictures painting which were painted by two of our Eastern art ists. The seal of the State is in the center of the floor and is fin every door knob. The monument on the top of the building is 24 feet high, and it represents the pioneer of the early west. There is a windy stair to the top and you can see quite a way. In the House of Representatives the walls were golden oak and it was lighted by many 1,000 watt lights. A large painting was hanging in the front. It was about the agree ment over the Oregon territory. The room is so insulated that a whisper may be heard anywhere in the room. The rug on the floor represents the Douglas Fir. Mr. Snell showed us the Oregon State Flag. It is green with the Beaver on one side and a seal on the other side. The Senate is a great deal like the House of Representatives, only the walls are black walnut. The rug represents the two leading industries of Oregon. The painting of the Sen ate is when the news came that Oregon was a state. The Governor has seven rooms. The walls are made of myrtle wood and the desk is also myrtle wood with glass top. One of the rooms in which the Governor and his Cabinet assemble when there is a decision to be made is made of knotty pine. The Secretary of State is putting cut seals to those who wish them with his signature on them. Due to busy days the Governor was not ruble to sign all of them but a few of us were lucky enough to have him sign them. The Oregon State building is all paid for and it hasn’t debt nor bond. It is the only state that was neither bought nor fought for. u.4.4 IN THE COUNTY COURT OF THE ur.ece.
