A Souvenir of His birthplace.

II. l.. Whited during his recent
visit to his old home in Iowa secured
unique souvenir of his birthplace.
The house in which he was born, on
the Iowa river, was built I'm the early
days when black walnut lumber was
common. Mr.. Whited visited the old
house, now going to decay, and took
a black walnut panel from the door
and is having it made into tray.
Black walnut lumber is now almost
worth its weight in gold and the tray
will be a beautiful one as well as
being an heirloom worth having.

Colorado Marble in
Lincoln Memorial

The white marble of which the
great $2,000,0O0 Lincoln memorial
temple is to be built on the banks
of the Potomac in Washington is to
come from the Sopris national forest,
Colorado.
This is said to be the first great
building in the east to be constructed
of this stone, known to the building

A Tribute to
GOvan High

Again this community is called to
mourn the passing of an old ana
highly valued citizen.
Uncle Govan High died at Doris,
in Siskiyou county, California, on
October s, 1913. at the ripe old age
of SO years and IL months. Mr.
High was born in the state of Vir-
ginia November s, 1928, and removed
to Illinois in 1S43, where he mar
ried Mary Jane Lincoln in Montgom-
cry county in the year 1914, from
which union nine children were
born.
Mr.. High crossed the plains twice,
first in 1850, returning to Illinois in
1851 via Panama. He returned to
California in 1868, bringing his fam
lily with him, and settled in Solano
county. In 1877 he came to Oregon
and purchased large farm in jack
son county three miles below Ash
land, on Bear creek. After a num-
Der of years he disposed of his farm
and built him a fine home in Ash
land. This city has been his home
since that time, though he has spent
more or less time among his chill
dren in California.
Mrs. High died at Doris, Califor-
mia, February 1S, 1907, after a
happy married life of SO years.
Since the death of his wife Mr.. High
has made his home chiefly with his
granddaughter, Mrs Lily Powell, at
Ashland, and at the time of his death
was visiting his son, Charles High, at
Doris, where his wife also is buried.
There are six children surviving
him, to wit: Charles B. High, resid-
ing at Doris, CAL; William High, re-
siding at Doris, Cal; Nathan High,
residing at Talent, Ore; Alfred High,
residing at Oakland, CAL; Addie l..
Witham, residing at Sebastopol, Ore.
The writer has known Mr.. High
we'll since his first arrival in Oregon
in 1877 and can speak understand
ingly of him. During many of the
earlier years of his residence here
he was very active business man
and had the unbounded respect and
confidence of all who knew him. I'm
It'll old age curtailed his efforts he
was recognized as one of the leading
citizens here and Ashland is better
for his having lived here. Always
cheerful, kind and benevolent, there
are many who join his bereaved fam.
lily to do honor to his memory.
Mr. High has fulfilled we'll his par
and laid aside well-spent life o
practically 80 years. There are SIR

The tyre is described by an
actress in one of the woman's
magazines of February.
The actress writes: "When
my first shock was effaced by ia
miliarity with conditions and I
had come to understand their
point of view, there was still one
thing which puzzled me.
"Why," / asked, "do you stay
on the stage? l should think
you would hate all this hard WORK
and the uncomfortable dressing
rooms and the stage managers or
dering you about. You don't
have to do it, why Do your"
well, you see,' said she OF
whom the question was asked,
lit is this way: Freddy likes to
have me do 1t.
"Of course, he doesn't let me
go on the road, but when am
here in a Broadway show, Freddy
likes to drift in with a bunch of
his friends, squat down in the
front row, point me out and let
'em envy him"
1t would not be right for me
to allow the public to think that
all the chorus girls Of our thea
tiers are of the kind from which
the actress quotes. Chorus girls
are like all other women-good,
bad and Indifferent; no better, no
worse, just women. I only quot
ed from the article to show that
most men have still that old idea
that woman is a chattel to be
owned.
