Not That Thou set the darkened sky with light
OF countess stars, framed n solemnty-~
But that some sesti who suffers in the night
Sees one star through the windows little pane
And, by that gleam of hone, first pfases to Thee.
Thanks be to Thee. @ Godt
For throbhing music which the worlds voice thrills:
l5nt most for melody Whicl. sings. alone
The bird IN deepest wood -sor song that stills
a child to sleep, far from The grand refrain
of Fames great chorus. chanting tunes we'll kr own.
Thanks be to Thee, @ God
For wondrous beauty which Thou gave the earth.
Bot most for loveness in barren sod:
a green spot in the parch / grass-the birth
OF some pure. sanity life not lived in vain
In haunts Of wckedness wt6eh know not.fiod
Thanks be to Thee, God
For Autumn harvest men hate toied to- reaps
For love, for home for laughter through our tears,
But most OF all for seeds which In our sleep
Of Winter, wait for sun ara Sprngstime rain

IT Is GOOD.
The Grain Crop-Oats Make
an Especially High Average
In Yield.

Wheat is quoted at 60 cents in
the local market. A good many
thousand bushels have been sold at
that figure. Oats is quoted at 25
to 20 cents, and considerable
quantity has passed from the grow
ers hands at those prices, although
farmers generally, are holding
with the expectation that they will
get a better figure. Of the future
of either wheat or oats, dealers say
nothing can be foIetold. That the
crop now nearly harvested is the
best IN years. Is undoubted. That
is the opinion of mill men, who of
course are brought in close contact
with the situation. Many farmers.
too. say no crop approaching the
present one has been harvested in
several years. Some wheat fields
go below 20 bushels, but they are
comparatively few. Yields of 25
and over are not infrequent, while
a number of crops of above 80 have
DeeQ leaTQ OF.
In the case of oats, the crop is
even better than wheat. One crop
in Blodgett gave IS bushels, while
in various directions so bushels
have been threshed. When it is
remembered that for dozen years
or more in this country the
wheat yield has seldom made a
general average of above 20 bushels
and more times has hardly exceed
ed an average of IS bushels, the
present crop is one to be thankful
for and proud of. Even with the
present prices, it means, along with
the good prices for other products,
easy and good times for everybody
this fall.

TRIBUTE TO HER,
The Late Lucy Rebecca Job
By a Friend Of the
Family.

In the great scheme of ere at:o
life in any form is always interest
ing. Humanity represents the
highest type known to us and with
universal accord we welcome the
coming and regret the passing of
an immortal spirit.
Regret is least when by length of
days the allotted time of man has
been reached and like the shealf OF
golden grain only awaits the gar
nering. 1t is the deepest when the
passing occurs in the dawn OF life.
Recently this community has
been greatly touched by the loss of
those just in the flush of woman
hood and manhood.
Eighteen years ago the friends of
DR.. ana Mrs. Job hailed with joy
tn: birth of their daughter Lucy.
The first nine years Of her ..ife were
spent in c. rva'is wlerc in due
time she en- cred tbs p-,1.ic schools
and by her bright mind and win
ming ways endeared herself to both
pupils and teachers. Later her
parents removed to Cottage Grove
and she became a pupil in the pub
lie school of that place where she
excelled as a student and in addi-
tion took up the study of music for
which she had decided talent and
at the age of sixteen, seemingly had
a bright future.
Suddenly her health failed and a
change of climate was found neces
sary and the quest Of health begun.
After nearly two years spent in
California, she returned home to
await the summons which came the
goth.
All through the months of illness
her cheerfulness did not forsake her
and her first thought was always
for the comfort of others.
On Tuesday the remains were
brought to Corvallis. Many Of the
old time friends of DIR. and Mrs.
Job awaited their arrival and at
tended them in their last sad jour.
ney to Crystal Lake cemetery.
Tenderly she was borne to her last
resting place by six of her forme,
girl friends who when the last sad
rites were ended, covered the newly
made mound with profusion O.
beautiful flowers.
"You cannot say and we will no
say
That she is dead-She is jus
away!
With a CHEEKY smile and a wave O
the hand,
She has wandered into aland un
known
And left us dreaming how very fai
It needs must be since she linger
there" +"
