6 Congressional Set Col’dially Welcomes Recent Newcomers Representative and Mrs. Crumpacker of Oregon, Descendants of Families Noted in History. Representative and Mrs. Maurice Bdgar Crumpacker of Portland, Oreg., are among the newcomers in the con- gressional set. They would have inade their own niche because of their swn force and os they were taken at o - ington’s affection because of the con- tinuation of the pleasant memories of the elder Crumpacker of Valparaiso, d. The present House member from o lovely city of roses was but little der than his own son, James Cook Crumpacker, when he accompanied his parents, Representative and Mrs. Bdgar Dean Crumpacker of Valpa. viaso, to Washington and became a pupll in the Franklin School. Mrs. Crumpacker. his mother, was most remarkable woman, and even lapse of about e her husband left Congre has scores of friends who remember her quaint sayings and her cheer- ful philosophy of life. She died only last Summer in_her home in Valpa- iso, active and beloved to the end. Maurice Edgar Crumpacker was the voungest of the family, and he left Washington to become & student in the Culver Military Academy, and after graduating in 1905 he entered the University of Michigan and event- ually took the doctor of laws degree in the law college. He finished his legal studies in Harvard in 1912, and in the Autumn of the same year he opened an office in the capital city of Oregon. This adopted (oast married Mi two vears after establishing hims in Portland, and there are three sons, James Cook Crumpacker, who is 11; ‘dgar Dean Crumpacker, 2nd, who is and o manly little chap, Peter, who is just 3, and already is one of the celebrities of the congressional set. Jrs. Crumpacker comes of an old and historic family of Oregon, and her son_of the Pacific Culley Cook about wother, who was Miss Iantha Miller, | was the first white child born in the Southwestern part of the State. The andparents of Mrs. Crumpacker ‘rossed the plains in « covered wagon n 1861, and pitched their tent a few hundred miles from the city of Port- land. They are counted among the ploneers and most useful citizens of the State, Mrs. Crumpacker has never mingled largely in the public activi ties of her section, though she has al- wavs taken an interest in political questions and has performed her duties as one who is responsible for the well being of the community. \arrying young, the care of the home and three sons has occupied Tuch of her time, but since coming to Wash- ington Mrs. Crumpacker has been reatly in demand not only in the dele tion of her home State, but in the circle of the Middle West generally through the affectionate regard of many still in Congress for the elder Crumpackers. Mrs. Edgar Dean Crumpacker was among the founders of the Congre: slonal Club and one of the factors in its early influence. Her daughter-in Jaw has received a cordial welcome in this organization and has fully en- joved its wide range of activities and {he oportunities presented to know her assoclates from all the varlous sec tions of the country. In her Portland home this member of the congres- sional set takes a prominent part in its well ordered social life. She has resided for some years in Dunithorne suburb, within easy access of the city, and given over to beautiful gardens. ‘A with all Oregonians, a garden with abundant. flowers has proved a neces- sity for the Crumpackers, and o, after ~ brief experience with hotel life and in a city house, they are now estab- lished at 2400 Tilden street, they have ample grounds for roses and other blooms. Mr. and Mrs. Crum- packer are members of the Episcopal Church, and have been attending the services at the Cathedral since they took up their residence in Cleveland Park. Mrs. A. W.
