IN MEMORIAM

Henry, the little six year old son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry R. Burger, de-
parted this life on March 2S, 1921 at
the Deaconess hospital.
Man that is born of woman is of
few days. He cometh forth like a
flower and is cut down."
And so it was with this dear little
boy, just blooming for manhood, when
all seemed favorable for useful and
prosperous life; nevertheless God is
no respeCter of persons. He calls for
the young as well as the old. Altho'
it's hard to do sometimes, yet we must
saw. His will be DONE
Death resulting from injuries re-
ceived from falling from buggy on
Thursday before. At the time of the
accident, little was thought of the
seriousness of it, neither did the little
fellow complain until, on Sunday, then
everything that skilled physicians,
careful nursing and loving hands
could do, was done to no avail.
Dear parents, we know your sor-
rows are so great that it is almost
impossible to bear and that your great
loss is Heavens eternal gain; then let
his loving remembrance be to you and
to us a perpetual inspiration calling
us to higher moral and spiritual
plane, and may his loving influence
go with us through our remaining
journey of this life and when our
earthly mission is over may we meet
him in Heaven where death and sor-
row never come.
His little lfeless form was laid to
rest in the Glasgow cemetery on Mon
day afternoon amid large concourSe
of sorrowing friends, there to await
the Judgement Day.
Little Henry leaves father, mother
three sisters and one brother to mourn
his loss.-MrS. J. l.. Dyer.

Woman Is
Savedfronl
Drowning
Mrs. Buckley Rescued
by Bathers After
Being Lost Under
Water

After she had been under water
for several minutes, Mrs. Sussie
Buckley of Portland was saved
from death by drowning yesterday
afternoon about $40 o'clock at
Spong's landing by the prompt
action of bathers in the vicinity
who succeeded In getting her
ashore and bringing her to con-
sciousness.
She had been swimming with
Mrs. Mae Holland and Raymond
.Lapp, boy of Is years, where. the
water was over her head, and
cried family for help when she
was attacked by a cramp. The
other two rushed to her assistance
and we're fast becoming exhausted
by the weight of the woman who
was already unconscious, when a
nearby bather, attracted by the
cries and thinking that Mrs. Hol-
land was the drowning woman,
seized her In spite of her remon-
strances and started for the shore.
Mrs. Holland kept her hold on
the drowning woman until she was
completely exhausted, but, before
her rescuer could be persuaded
that her cries and resistance were
not caused by half-drowned con-
dition she had lost her hold on
Mrs. Buckley,
The body was soon recovered by
searchers, however, in the shallow
water near the shore, when a man
stumbled on it in his search.
After about six minutes of arti-
ficial respiration applied by Will
liam Carver of Salem, who is IA
miliar with the first aid for
drowning, the body Of Mrs. Buck
ley began to shown signs of life,
and in 20 or 25 minutes she re-
gained consciousness. DIR. G. e.
Cashatt OF Salem arrived in less
than a half hour and took charge
of the patient. He praised the
work of Carver who did everything
possible. according to the doctor.
Mrs Buckley had been eeating
just before going swimming, and
although she was a good swimmer
she was not in the best of physical
condition at the time of the acci-
dent. She was member of d par
ty of about 35 who came down
from Portland for the day to pic
mic at Spong's landing. The pa
tient stopped last night at the

Farmer Line
Operation Is
Held Costly

The telephone company's side
of the story of the farmers tele,

ing.
That this story is not altogeth-
er one of profit and pleasure tc

graph company even under the re-
Gently increased rates was indicat-
ed by the testimony Of J. G. Lowe
manager of the Corvallis exchange
who was the first witness called
to the stand this morning.
According to Lowe much more
effort is required In placing calls
over the lines of the farmer sub
scribers than is the case with the
city subscribers.
Failure to properly maintain
farmer lines and lack Of attention
on the part Of farmers to proper
ringing are directly reflected In
increased troubles" for the
switchboard operator assigned to
the farmer board, Lowe declared.
Attorney Shaw in questioning
Lowe brought out the fact that the
lowest rate paid by city sub
scriber in Corvallis was SGT
year. This is for four party ser
vice. The rate for farmer line ser
vice is 50 yer year or difference
of s1S in favor of the farmer.
"Can a farmer maintain his owr
line for SIS a year?" Shaw asked
Lowe.
"I would like to have a contrac'
to do it," Lowe declared.
"Well, how much would vol
say it does cost a farmer to keel
his line in good working condi
tion." Shaw insisted.
"If each farmer subscriber
would spend IS a year in mainte
nance he would be assured OF sat
isfactory service" Lowe replied.

12Cars Tagged
By Police For
Wrong Parking

Twelve autos were tagged yes
terday by local police for viola
tions of parking laws which have
been disregarded more and more
recently, according to police.
All were ordered to appear today
at two o'clock before Judge Rice.
While most auto drivers have
observed the parking rules as
they apply to the fire limits a
great many have grown careless
about parking in the residential
sectors, that is instead of keep
ing their cars parallel with the
curb and headed to the right they
pull In on either side of the
street and leave their cars stand
ing. In doing this they violate
the law twice. they drive on the
wrong side of the street when
they park and leave their cars
headed to the left and again they
have a drive across the street
when they leave the curb to get
back on the right side of the street
again. This practice has caused
several accidents Of late in the
residential sectors. All offenders
in the future will be taken before
the police Judge and dealt with
accordingly.
The following named people
were tagged for having their cars
parked wrong: w. H. Darby, 4S1
