The CHEMAWA AMERICAN AJA (.F rom the Q uiver THE HONOR ROLL of G iuseppi M azzini ) Ideas rule the world and its events. A revolution is the passage of an idea from theory to practice. ) —■ No citizen ought to be rich enough to be in a position to buy another; none poor enough to be constrained to sell himself. 3g»— — >■ Extreme poverty, financial ruin, oppressive or un equal taxation, may provoke risings that are more or less threatening or violent, but nothing more. 3 08 8— Page 3 > Law is one and the same for individual and collec tive life, both of which are the expression of a single universal phenomenon, differently modified by space and time. Sons do not remain united to their fathers except so long as they have need of them for preservation. From that time forth the family is only maintained in virtue of a convention. For an instant he caught a glimpse of the true de- finiton of liberty, when he said that it consisted “in being able to do what one ought to will, and in not being constrained to do what one ought not to will.” There does not and ought not exist more than one law; it is its application to the diverse branches of social life that implies a distinction in the higher branches of the administration between the different functions delegated to provide for its execution. It is not by the force of conventions or of aught else, but by a necessity of our nature, that societies are founded and grow. Each of us is a part of hu manity, each of us lives its life, each is called upon to live for it, to aid the attainment of the end assigned to it, to realize, as far as possible in each of us, the ideal type, the divine thought that guides it. “No man has,” you say, “natural authority over his fellows; might cannot create right; therefore con ventions are left as the only basis of legitimate au thority.” But is there not an authority higher than man, in the True, the Just, the end which we have set before us and which we are bound above all things to discover? Is not some of that authority passed on to the people or to that fraction of the people which is its best interpreter?

LOCAL Joe White had one of the leads in a play given in Salem last week by students at Willamette University. The pay movies last Saturday evening, pulled off as a Christmas fund benefit, were a great success and San ta now has some money in both pockets. Not long ago on the occasion of Mr. Lipps’ address during a luncheon at the Salem Chamber of Commerce our sextet of young lady vocalists were in attendance and sang in solos, duets, and sextets. They were given a splendid reception in every instance. In the audience was Mr. Lee Eyerly of the Salem school of aviation and he was most favorably impressed by the singing of our girls. About an hour after the vocal ists had arrived back at the school an airplane began to circle about just over our campus and came so low at times that we feared the pilot was about out of gas. The object of all this was the dropping of a letter to our sextet by Mr. Eyerly, in which he voiced the pleasure he had received from hearing them. This was a courtesy much appreciated by all of us—as nice as it was unusual. ESCORTS Sat., Dec. 13—To Salem....................... Mrs. Kirk Sun., Dec. 14—McBride ....
