last Saturday evening, A. J. Locke,
who resides on his farm about three
miles east of this city, met with an
accident which might have proved
quite serious. When he was about
half way home, some party on the
road collided with the cart in which
Mr.. Locke was riding. His horse
was badly frightened and started
to run, throwing Mr.. Locke from
the vehicle. He held to the reins
and was dragged some distance be-
fore he let the animal loose. His
hip was quite badly bruised, and
he was fortunate that nothing
more serious resulted.

Enthusiastic Grange Meeting.

Corvallis Grange held its first
fall meeting last Saturday after
noon, in the room in the new ag-
ricultura1 hall provided for
.. grange meetings. There was an
unusually large attendance, and
much enthusiasm was manifest
ed. Citizens generally, as well
as members of the organization,
who do-not attend these meetings
are losing much in the way of
| entertainment and valuable in
formation. Hereafter open meet
1ngs will be held, and the public
| is extended cordial invitation
to be present.
One of the principal objects of
the grange is proteetion of its
members, and assistance of un-
fortunate brothers. The local
grange, at its meeting Saturday,
gave evidence of its sincerity in
this regard by voting a substan-
tiai sum to be devoted to the re-
lief of members of the order who
suffered loss during the recent
forest fires in this state.
An important and laudable
action by the grange, was the
unanimous adoption of set of
resolutions, endorsing the propo-
sition of Superintendent Denman,
that the grange of the county CO.
operate with the county school
superintendent in holding Sc
ries of 'sparents' meetings"
throughout the county, in lieu of
the local institutes which it has
been the custom to hold.
Superintendent Denman's plan
is thus outlined:
| Let the grange, in the locality
where the ''Parents' Meeting" is
to be held, agree. to devote an
afternoon session to this work.
The date of the meeting will be
announced in due time, for the
notice to be read at the session
preceding the ''Parents' Meet
ing" This session to be devot-
ed to educational work will be an
open one, to which teachers, pa
rents and all friends will be in
vited. Only the afternoon ses-
sion OF the grange will be taken
up with this work.
These meetings will be held
four or FIVE times year in differ
ent parts of the county. Thus
each grange will be called upon
to devote only one afternoon each
year to this work.
! By passing the following set of
resolutions. Corvallis Grange, en-
dorses Supt. Denman's plan and
proves its interest in the schools
of Benton county and its readi-
ness to assist in their advance
ment:
Whereas. One of the objects OF the
grange is to foster the public SCHOOL, and
support every movement that will tend
to mold good citizenship;
Whereas, The grange and the school
are closely connected in their interests
and their welfare, thus the success of
one is the success of the other: therefore
be it
Resolved, By Corvallis Grange No.
242, of Benton county, Oregon, that the
plan of holding Parents Meetings." as
outlined by Supt. Denman in his letter
to ue, receives our most hearty endorse
ment. We pledge to him our earnest CO.
operation and support in carrying the
said plan into execution.
