HOME HISTORICAL SOCIETY
COMMENDED BY SPEAKER
DIR. SCHAFER OF L. OF o. DE
UyERS LAST OF COMMUNITY
LECTURES HERE.

Strong commendation for the home
historical society was given last Sat
urday evening by DR.. Joseph Schafer,
head of the department of history at
the University of oregon, in a lecture
which was the last of the community
conference series and which was given
in conjunction with several other ad-
dresses before the Umatilla County
Historical society.
I'VE should begin our study of his
tory at home" said the speaker. 1--WE
should know first of the origin and
growth of our local community before
we tackle the history Of the state. We
should know the history of the state
before we explore the archives for the
early day happenings of the north
west. We should learn the facts about
the northwest before We take up the
study of the nation and We should
know the history of our own country
before we delve into the past of other
nations"
The local historical society, he stat
ed, fills a need in the community. One
should exist in every community he
declared, in order to secure and pre-
serve from the Oldest inhabitants the
| local history as they knew. He alsc
advocated that the school cooperate
in this work of gathering historical
data and that the archives be estab
lished in the school.

badly injured. When medical aid ar
rived Mr.. Wilkinson was dead. The
