IJdIlqr Jeurnal: The publication In
your it&ner a' few day .ago of the
"Roll of Honor" of tho publle'schools
oLMar 3, 1887, revive soma lively
Tocollecllons ii tho mind of one of
toe "young kids" of that time who fig
ured In the aforesaid roll. Although
tho tlmo was nearly 37 years ago,
the writer easily recalls a. majority
of Uio names lu tiio partloular school
which lio attendcl, tho Contral, and
-troll romorabors tho characteristics,
tic., of thoso whoso name appear
m tho roll of honor. Thinking that
the old boys and girls of that period
might, perhaps, bo IntorcRted, Is my
ooxcuso for tills roferenco to somo of
Anna.
Tho flint named, Orln Ilarkor, was
a good etudout, and qulto popular
with bis associates; I remoraber ho
excelled In penmanship and In math
nrnt!rt; ho became prominent In
Odd Fellowship, and was associated
la business with It. P. noise, jr. Ills
tintlmely dsath a fow years ago was
tho cause of universal regret. Tho
second on tho list, Albert Mooree, Id
engaged In tho lumber buslnoss In
fealem. Hugene Price was the son of
Mrs. P. L. Price, who was the nrln
olpal of the primary department He
afterwards moved to Kostorn Or

died several years ago. Payson
O'Pato") Holoh was tho son or P. H.
Hatch and a brother of door go B.

ex-County Treasurer W. H. Mooro.
&nd now live In Klamath Kails; his

trwuurcv. Oeorgo Orolsan. a brother
of State Hsnator H, M. Crolsan, Is
now a prosperous fanner of South
Balem. Oeorgo Hrowu was tho son of
A. J ("Jaek") Ilrown. a pioneer
Rkuksmtth of Salotn; their homo waj
n Hit 8K)t now occupied by the reel

asm, the son of Uncle Charley
Hweltt, bus a large faim east of 8v
I6l. George Hughes graduated at
Willamette university ami U now
head of Ike John Hughes Co.
Samuel Crawford Is row a resilient
t Healtle: Chnrlen Ilyrne was the
son of ImU Ilyrne who conducted a
grocery and bakery butinetu, in h.
lorn. Prank MoDuwell uimiged lu the
jewelry nutlne. was prominent
away back In the early '70's created
a great sensation In Salem. I don't

pation that ho has beet: following for
somo time; ho Is a brothor of Jos.

dist church'. August Stalger lives In
Portland and is engaged In tho Shoo
business with Fred Eggort; ho Is a
brother of William and Jonathan
Stalger, and Mrs. A. J. Monroe, of
Salem. I can hardly reallr.o that Jon
nlo Thatcher has beon agrandmothor
for a dozen years, but that was a lone
long time ngo, and I should Judgo by
this tlmo that she will bo fifty yonrs
old, or thoreaboute at hor next birth
day, or about three years older than
tho wrltor. She has throe daughters
living, Mrs. Geo. Mack, of Joseph, and

momber right, wero Joseph Holman,

of many othors of my schoolmates to
whom I would like to roror. 'I ho
old Central school building still
stands, although a vory dilapidated
structure, and the work of education
Rtlll rrnnn nn within Its walls, but It
Is hoped that tho old building will
soon be removed and i more commo
dious nnd modorn edifice tnko Its
place. It Is an Improvement that ha3
long been needed, and A. hope, Mr.
Editor, that von will aeltato this mat
ter until wo shall see a handsome and
spacious school building ornament tho
