UNIQUELY ELOQUENT
TRIBUTE MARKS LAST
CANYON PERFORMANCE
Thousands Who Pack Stands
ON Closing Night Hear Uma-
tilla Indians Eulogize Late
Sheriff and Comrade.

A brief but sincere tribute to the
memory OF Sheriff TIL TAYLOR, paid by
the Indians OF the Umatilla reserva-
tion, was a feature of the final per-
formance of Happy Canyon Saturday
night Jim Badroads was designated
by the tribes as spokesman and Lee
Sampson interpreted for him. The
stands were called to attention TO hear
the simple, Indian tribute to man
whom all knew and respected
More enjoyable than on any pre-
vious night were the numbers sung by
Miss Harriet Leach near the flnale OF
the performance. That her voice was
able to fill the air with such strength
and sweetness despite her being out Of
doors was the marvel OF th04b00 who
packed the stands. She was the big
hit OF the show and her addition 10
the program as declared a happy one
by the appreciative audiences.
From the first appearance of the In
dams Saturday night TO the last strains
of the Star Spangled Banner. the show
was a rapidly moving finished per-
formance. The finale died away into
the spirited air or "A Hot Time in the
Old Town Tonight and the dance
was on.
Within the pavilion games waxed
warm and the dance was n jam that
taxed the capacity of the floor.
dozen attendants were kept busy push
ing back the crowd 80 that the dane
ers might have more room. The mu-
sicai numbers furnished by Meyers
Novelty Orchestra were irresistable
and 1t was with keen regret that
large crowd heard the death knell of
Happy Canyon at midnight.
The crowd. although huge. was un-
usually orderly Saturday night and
much credit has been bestowed upon
Director j. r. Raley and members of
the Commercial Association who had
charge of the games and dancing.
