harbor have been putting their
bivalves on the market as Olympia
oysters and the local companies
don't like it, asserting that the Pa
ciflc county product is inferior. The
result may be that the local oyster
men will get together and appeal to
the department of commerce to put
a stop to this practice by the Willapa
harbor gentry, claiming misbranding.

In Memoriunl.

After being confined to his bee
for several months with chronic
liver trouble, J. A. McClendon
aged "a years, died Saturday
May oth. in the intirmary at
Hattlesburg and was brought
Sunday to Brockdale, the girl.
hood home Of his wife, for inter.
ment.
Mr.. McClendon was a rail.
road engineer for more than 20
years and was held high in the
esteem of ali officials and assocj.
ates for his efficiency and faithful
ness. His strict adherence to
duty and faithfulness to his
trust while carrying daily in his
hands the lives of the hundreds
OF passengers entrusted to his
care. IS evidenced by the fact
that while in numbers of wrecks
during these lorg years of SER
vice, he was never once SUSPEND
ed for being in fault or in snv
wise to blame for the wrecks.
His friends in business were all
with whom he associated, and
their loyalty and affection were
attested during his long illness
by constant care and attention
and the daily courtesies extend
ed the patient sufferer.
Gentle and affectionate always
oy nature, he manifested tpru
all his illness a sweet sr3rit
"hlch was marvel to his pas ssor,
his physicians and his frle Ids,
and the end found him trusting
fully in his Savior and W olIy
resigned to Gods vail concern
ing blm and his. Thus he fell
asleep in Jesus as gently a. a
babe and the peace that pas<etb
all understanding clothed his
placid features.
1he funeral services were held
Sunday at 8 O'Clock, in the home /,
OF the late Dr.. ]. s. Brock, Rev
j. }. Walker oEticiati. 9, assisted !
by Rev. w. A. Murray, and the
body laid to rs st in the family |
