Death is always sad, but when a

human understanding, she could
have been spared for many years Of
usefulness, it is almost impossible for
us to acquiesce in the dealings Of the

that He knoweth what is best for

Mrs. Orange Dies in East

Deaths shadow darkened another
bright and happy Morris home last
week, when Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew
Johnson living on South Street re-
ceived message stating that their
daughter, Mrs. Verne G. Orange, had
passed away at her home in Sparrows
Point, Maryland. The last letter
they had from their daughter was to
the effect that everybody was well
and the news of her death was a dis
tinct shock to them.
Mrs. Orange was taken sick on
December 9Th with bronchitis but
nothing was thought of it at the
time and the doctors did not think
it was anything serious. The next
day, however, her fever rose and she
went to bed on the 7th and the best
of medical care and attention was
given her. AS soon as her condi-
tion got serious Mr.. Orange wrote a
! letter to her parents in Morris stat
| ing that she was sick and that there
J was cause for alarm and this letter
was sent special and registered. If
this letter had been received in prop
er time Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson would
, have been prepared for the terrible
news Of their daughters death, but
| the letter did not come and the tele-
gram was the first intimation they
had that anything was wrong. Mrs.
Orange kept getting worse and the
best Of specialists were secured in
Baltimore, but she passed away We'd
nesday, December II, death being
due to bronchial pneumonia. She
was unconscious at the last and did
not know that she would not get
better. In speaking of her death,
Mr.. Orange said: "My wife just
went to sleep and woke up in that
Better Land
The remains of Mrs. Orange were
brought to Morris by her husband
and private funeral was held Mon
day. Interment was in the Morris
cemetery beside her sister, who died
| several years ago.
Mrs. Orange was formerly Miss
Agnes Johnson and was born in
Grove City, July 1, 1886. Most of
her early life was spent in Morris
and it was while getting her educa-
| ton at a college in the west that she
met Mr.. Orange. Mr.. Orange form
erly resided with his parents in Nom
tana. She was married June 26,
1912 and is survived by her husband
Morris tribune., 1918-12-20

and one son, William Andrew Orange,
aged 8 years.
During their married life, Mr.. and
Mrs. Orange resided four years at
Gary. Ind, where Mr.. Orange was
employed by the u. S. Steel Corpora
tion, and then they moved to Spar
rows Point, Maryland, where Mr..
Orange has a fine position as sup
erintendent of the Bethlehem Steel
Works Mills. They had a beautiful
home overlooking Chesapeake Bay and
we're just building fine new house
which would have been ready for oc-
cupancy in the spring. Mrs. Orange
was in Morris about two months ago
for visit with her parents.
The loss of his wife is great blow
to Mr.. Orange. In speaking Of her
he said: ''She was more than a wife
to me. She was my companion and

PRESIDENT ASKS BIG
ROLL CALL RESPONSE
Issues Proclamation Urging
EVery american to Join
American Red Gross

President Wilson, in a proclama-
tion calls on every Ameican to join
the American Red Cross at Christ
mas Roll Call week, December 21 to
rs and thus send forth to the whole
human family the Christmas greet
ing for which it waits and for which
it stands in greatest need. The pro-
clamation, prepared before the Presi-
dent departed for Europe, follows:
ITO the American people:
Zone year ago 100000 Ameri-
cans, by enrolling as members Of the
Red Cross at Christmas time, sent to
the men who were fighting our bat
ties overseas, a stimulating message
of cheer and good will. They made
it clear that our people were of their
own free choice united with their
government in the determination not
only to wage war with the instru-
ments of destruction, but also by
every means in their power to repay
the ravages of the invader and sus-
tain and renew the spirit of the army
and of the homes which they repre-
sented
'The friends of the American Red
Cross, in Italy, Belgium, and France
have told, and will tell again, the
story of how the Red Cross workers
restored morale in the hospitals, in
the camps, and at the cantonments,
and we ought to be very proud that
we have been permitted to be of SER
vice to those suffering and whose
glory are the heritage of humanity.
''Now, by Gods grace, the Red
Cross Christmas message of 1918 is
to be a message Of peace as well as
a message of good will. But peace
does not mean that we can fold our
hands. 1t means further sacrifice.
We must prove conclusively to an
attentive world that American is
permanently aroused to the needs of
the new era, our old Indifference gone
forever
''The exact nature of the future
service of the Red Cross will depend
upon the program of the associated
governments, but there is immediate.
need today for every heartening word
and for every helpful service. We
must not rorget that our soldiers and
our sailors are still under orders and
still have duties to perform of the
highest consequence, and that the
Red Cross Christmas membership
means a great deal to them. The
people of the saddened lands, more
over, returning home today where
there are no homes must have the as
surance that the hearts of our people
are with them in the dark and doubt
full days ahead. Let us, so far as we
can, help them back to faith in mercy
and in future happiness.
GAS president of the Red Cross,
conscious in this great hour of the
value of such message from the
American people, should be glad If
every American would join the Red
Cross for 1918 and thus send forth
to the whole human family the
Christmas greeting for which it
waits and for which it stands in
greatest need.

GRADUATION UNIFORMS

In college that has always prid-
ed itself on its respect for academic
atmosphere, one OF the Oldest cole
giate traditions has been swept
away. For the first time. the senior
class will not wear the cap and gown
on commencement day. All the grad
yates will be dressed in the uniform
of military cadets.
The innovation is typical of the
change that has come about In Am
erican colleges. They are on a war
basis. To their everlasting credit.
II should be recognized that they put
themselves on that basis voluntarily
the moment the United States enter
ed the war, and have ever since
maintained spirit of patriotic help
fulness and preparedness.
In the college mentioned the num-
ber OF men who will march up in
khaki to receive their diplomas is
small. That is because two-thirds
OF the class are already wearing
Uncle Sans full uniform. That is
the case In nearly every institution
Of higher learning.
Most students old enough or
strong enough enlisted as soon as
we declared war. Many Of them we're
in France as Red Cross assistants
before that. Those who are left are
nearly all undergoing military train
ing. They have entered zealously
into every sort Of war activity in
their local communities. such az sell
Ing Liberty bonds, raising Red Cross
funds, stimulating enlistments, etc.
And along with this abnormal ac-
tivity, they have carried on their coli
lege studies about as usual, in order
to At themselves for the big work
which they know will be expected
OF educated men hereafter.
n any American Institution has
Justified its existence In this trying
time. II Is the American college. II
any type Of American has proved his
worth, II is the college student whom
a cynical public has so often abused
and ridiculed.

NOISES AGAIN

Those people who have been COM
planning about the little noises Of
the burro. dog and cat must have
positions in boiler factory; other
wise they would pay no attention to
the trifling racket made by these
small four-footed animals.
During the sleeping hours Of the
night II is hard to conceive how any
person could possibly hear the slight
noise made by the bray OF the bur-
TO. bark OF n dog or squall OF cat,
with the continual short toots. me-
dium long toots (of half dozen or
sol and the long drawn out blasts
of the great Southern Pacific mogul

whistle and the late ocean steamer
fog horn that vibrates from Badly

is then carried on for few half

after steam enough has been used
to pull a heavy train with all Of its
crew to Salem. the long boomine
whistle Is used time and again Ia
lot Medford or Roseburg know that
train load OF noise is leaving
Grants Pass.
We all know these to be extraor-
binary times and suppose va
should get accustomed to eStraordi'

little and get old fashioned enough
to conserve on steam. and do more
OF the talking with telegraph and
