of New Englanders who came over
land by way of the South Pass until
the railways superseded the ox-team.
Already New England's towns and
villages, redolent with tales of Pill
grims and patroits, are dotted with
the big books. In a score of States
In the Middle West and South many
boards are In place, and all along the
Pacific Coast tourists learn interest
ing history from the boards.
The boards are not things of a
season only. II Is the intention to
turn q page" each year and place
now history upon II.
Each board fits into the land
scape and by the fact that Il per-
forms a genuine service obyiates the
criticism directed against many hill
boards. Instead OF opposing the
erection OF the big book. many COM
munitles are stirred by local pride to
urge that boards be erected In their
vicinity. and many landowners who
have, hitherto shown hostility when
asked for permission to have sign
boards placed on their property con
sent gladly TO have their town ad-
vertlsed by some OF the historical
bulletins.
The history OF oregon Is told on
these bulletin boards from the time
OF the Spanish and English nayl-
gators who reached the coast In the
early explorations OF the northern
Pacific coast In the Seventeenth CEN
tury up to the time that oregon men
and women took part In winning the
Worlds War
These boards tell the story OF Cap
tain Cooks landing at Mootka Sound
In 1878, and OF the French navigator
Laperouse who sailed along the
coast In 1886.
They also record that 1883, two
Americans, John Kondrick aud Rob
ert Gray, sent out by Boston fur
merchants explored oregon, Gray
giving the Columbia river It's name
U79D.
There Is recorded also the story OF
the discovery OF gold In California In
1S4S. "the fever" attracting a large
portion OF the territory's citizens,
many OF them coming back In 1850
when the land donation law passed
by congress opened up Oregon,
Other bords contain information
about the formation OF Washington
Territory March 2,'iS53) out OF the
northern half OF oregon; the adopt
ing OF state constitution NOV, 3,
1850. and oregons admissio2 into
the Union on February IL, 1859.
These boards also record the spor-
adic warfare with the Indians be-
tween 1S45 and 1855 and the re-
sumption OF warfare in 1858 and
again In 1866 and '6S when occur

This old Indian and buffalo trail was
further defined by trappers and set

by Verendrye in t742, and more
definitely routed By the Lewis and

Astor party establishing fur trading

In the later thirfies. several mis-
sionary expeditions passed over the
Oregon trail. while In 1S42, John G.
