BAPTIST ASSEMBLY
BEST IN ITS HISTORY
Nearly Five Hundred Regis
istered..E Excursions Swell
Attendance.

In every way the Baptist sum
mer assembly just ended at Burt.
on, was the best in all the years
Of its history. There was a regis.
tration Of nearly 500 which was
augmented by several hundred
night and Sunday excursionists
from Tacoma.
Dean 7. II. Hagen presented a
program or high merit covering a
wide range of Sunday school and
young peoples work, Bible study,
missions, methods Of church work,
evangelism, and primary an d
Junior work. A new feature was
an afternoon storytelling hour
conducted by Miss Isabel Craw.
ford, missionary to the Keowa
Indians. The notebooks turned in
at the close of the course showed
that large number had done
very efficient work in the classes.
The outstanding features of the
evening services were: the first
night campfire meeting, music
night, stunt night and the closing
life-work meeting. At this last
service some 25 young people def.
initely dedicated themselves to a
life Of Christian service.
The new auditorium, the enlarg-
ed dining hall, and thee canteen
at headquarters were greatly ap-
preciated and were constantly
taxed to their capacities. For 10
days Assembly Point was a tent
city with 106 tents filled with
happy, eager people.
Rev. +. w. Wrightman, pastor
Of the Central Baptist church of
Olympia, was grounds manager
again this year. He is staying
over for few days to plan some
clearing and grading for next
year.
The assembly officers are glad
to note the hearty cooperation of
the people of Burton and the is
land in the work of the organiza
ton. The equipment of the as
sembly is entrusted to them for
about IL months Of the year and
it is a pleasure to report that no
one has in anyway attempted to
molest or destroy anything.

BENJAMIN H. DAVIS, REAL
PIONEER, ON LAST TRIP

When Benjamin II. Davis, afte,

O'Clock Thursday evening, Aug,
ust l6, Burton lost one Of its old,
est citizens and the peninsula dis.
trict lost a good and honored
neighbor.
The funeral was held on Sat
urday at the Burton Baptist
church and mtermcnt was made
at a Tacoma cemetery near the
grave Of his only son, Eliza Davis,
who died four years ago.
Mr.. Davis, a real pioneer Of the
West, was born on May 16, 1S47,
| in Newton county, Missouri. There
he spent a happy childhood, but
his parents, feeling the stress of
conditions in a border state at the
close Of the Civil war, decided to
migrate to the promised land Of
Oregon. The boy Davis perform
ed a mans part on the long jour

| ing the oxen while the men ford
ed the streams by lashing the waG-
on boxes together and stood guard
when at times the caravan Of COW

from hostile Indians. At one point
in the journey a party but a few
hours ahead Of the Davis train

war, We're especially dangerous.
Passing through these perils the
family broke the journey by
spending the winter months Of
1S64-65 in Utah. There the boy
Davis found employment and the
family found good neighbors
among the Mormons, but in the
spring time of 1865, deciding to
press on, they reached southern
Oregon in safety and settled there.
Young Davis became associat-
ed with a wagon builder and was
soon constructing carriages as a
trade. Thus he grew into man
hood in Polk county, Oregon.
In 1876 he married Miss Gcorg-
ia Hodges, the daughter Of an
Oregon pioneer, who survives to
mourn a good husband.
In 1879 the Davises heard the
call Of the land and, dropping his
trade, he and Mrs. Davis removed
to Whitman county, Wash, where
they farmed for 20 years. The
