MAKING PEOPLE THINK Some parsons of a very cynical disposition deny that the majority of people do any considerable amount of thinking'. Vhcy believe that the majority go about .their occupations in i routine way, doing what they are told to do, but not putting Ihcir brains on their work. Many of us here in Roseburg have heard that opinion expressed by some of our pessimists. They feel that when all these folks have to act as citizens, they accept with little question the things that their lead ers or their favorite newspapers tell them. Their amuse ments, it is complained, are too passive. They watch others do things while they sit inactive in grand stand seats and at shows, without developing their originality by doing things themselves. There are many quiet people who do a lot more thinking than they get credit for. They are not good talk ers, but underneath their reticence they have shrewd ideas. Certain forces are stirring the mentality of these folks. They go to school longer, for one thing. Many who 25 years ago would have quit school very early, are no going wholly or part way through high schools. There they come in contact . with the larger problems of the community. The newspa pers and the churches and the radio are three great forces that are helping people to think. They show people how they limit themselves when they move around in little nar row grooves. People should feel that their chances for suc cess and self improvement are greatly imnroved when they form the habit of reading one or more good newspapers. In telligence costs practically nothing in these days, except a willingness to give one's time. Those that are too indiffer ent to the things that are going on to give that time, pay a heavy price for their neglect - ' ; . " o 'A, BEAUTIFUL CHARACTER' Portland Journal : In a hazy way, the public has known eiUhe malady with which Mrs. Laura Pierce has battled since - long before her husband became governor of Oregon. It has . not known of the patience, the fortitude and the Christian spirit with which she faced the dread alternatives of an in ' curable disease. Cheerful always, even when the inssue was going heavily against her, she battled on, toiled on, wrought " on. Born in Oregon, of good old pioneer stock, with her outlook broadened by an excellent education, she was, in .womanhood, wifehood and motherhood, of that splendid type the old fashioned woman at her best. Her home was her al tar, where the fires were ever kept burning. Her family - was her world, a world that she beautified with all the graces and devotion of mother, wife and friend. No words that may be spoken will adequatnly picture the gentleness of her na- . ture, the delightful touch of her influence or the beauty of her Bpirit. A commonwealth lays its sympathy at the feet of the bereaved executive and his family. , DIRECTORS HOLD WEEKLY -MEETING All members of the board of di rectors of the Chamber of Com- fc morce aiieuticu ii regular wnrai , meeting of the board yeaterday af- ternoon.

FRANCE IN NEED OF FOREIGN LOAN PARIS. Mar. 11. A foreign loan of four or five billions of francs to 1 enable the treasury to pay its ob ligations promptly Is France's fundamental need In tbe present and approaching financial crisis, says Louis Loucheur in an inter view published by Le Journal. The pIer had appealed to him as an outstanding expert In finance, to suggest a way out for the country, facing the maturity of twenty-three billion francs worth of securities this year. v If the treasury bad sufficient margin to enable- It to meet promptly all demand for payment, everything soon would go smooth ly M. Lgucheur said. ' "Bondholders who demanded re imbursement would be the (lrsb t bring back their, money to the treasury If they saw that the treas ury was pnxjng. It is In fact a question of confidence." Unfortunately the government had raised the Interest rates on Its recent loans so that the prob lem of refunding had become dif ficult and burdensome, but, he ad ed, "I know that a foreign loan is passible Aid 1 believe it Is neces sary." This loan also, he added, would provide means for a campaign to Improve the trunc, which the 1100, Ouo.OUO Morgan loan was reserved for defense It the franc were at tacked. i - ' flMV SUNT HOME.
