Ride With the U. S. A.
If Mellon Would Run
Ladies and Hairdressers
Don't Imitate Nature
! By Arthur Brisbane 1
(Copyright 1928 ay Star Company)
Mr. Moody, head of the
well known Investors' Service,
tells you, through' Cyrus H. K.
' Cutris' paper, that Wall Street
bears will wait a long time for
lunch.
Ride with the U. 3. A.,
quotes he. We have had a wild
time since 1923. But that will
seem wild compared with good
times that are ahead, in the
next five years.
The old days, when the in
siders put prices up, . "distrib
uted" stocks among the lambs,
then knocked down prices, are
gone. This is a new era.'
The poor bears don't 'know
what it means for us .to be a
creditor nation, for the first
time, or what it means to have
our industries,, railroads and
natural resources developed to
so high a degree.
But, Mr. Moody, like every
other wise man, would say to
you "don't gamble." Some will
get rich in the next five years;
nome, including gamblers, will
become poor.
Corn is selling for $1.25 n
bushel. It sold once for less
than 25 c, and farmers burned
it because, it was cheaper fuel
thnn Coal.
Wheat is climbing towards
$2; cotton is double what it
was a little while ago, when this
writer advised the learned Clar
ence Dillon-to buy a million
bales, of it.
Beneath the country is a lake
Df oil and there is plenty of
gold in the mountains.
Don't sell this country short.
We are still exporting gold
and a wise German economist
warns the world it is producing
less than half the gold it needs.
That should make American
gold dollars gradually worth
more. But if all the gold van
ished the loss would not be
great, except to denists. We do
not eat it and only imagine it is
money.
If iron, water or, especially,
oxygen, should become scarce,
that would be a different story.
There is- so much political
news that even an outline
would be too long, like Wells'
Outline of History.
Pennsylvania might go to o
strong wet, except that the
workers easily get all the beer
they want under pseudo-prohibition.
,
' Many of the wise ones in
Washington br.lieve that Mr.
Mellon will be nominated if the
president persistently refuses.
Mr. Mellon has passed 70. But
he is able to look after this na
tion's money affairs, and would
be well able to run the While
House business.
r
He is much younger than
Gladstone, when" the latter sat
up all night in the House of
Commons fighting his home
rule battle with fierce energy.
It is the man, not the age that
counts. And the presidency is
not a ditch-digging job. It de-
-.I- k; ...,.;.,, wic.
dom and will. Mr. Mellon has
all four, highly developed and
could be elected easily. The
difficulty is that he does not
want the job.
'
So the fight will probably be
Smith-Hoover or Smith-Dawes
or Smith-Coolidge in case the
"I do not choose" Achilles
should stroll out of his tent and
sny, "All right, since you in
sist." Gabriel Faux of Dijon wins

' morrow to End Visit
of Scoville Party.
Dedicating the new First Chris
tian church hullillng in this city,
Rev. Charles Reign Scovillo, world
Tamous evangelist, yesterday con
ducted three great meetings in the
new edifice. The financial drive
came to an end at the service last
night and It was announced that
cash and pledges amounting to
approximately $21,400 had been re
ceived. The chinch hud set a goal
of $12,000, the amount necessary
to care for the immediate needs of
the building effort, but this
amount was almost doubled in the
pledges and cash offerings that
were taken in. : 1
The morning session was a great
day In the church history, with a
huge crowd responding enthusiastically-
to the ilcd leal km plea. At
the morning hour Dr. Scoville
preached a masterful sermon In
which he developed the thought of
the greatness of the church, which
has played such a prominent part
in the history of the country, stat
ing that God has worked out hiB
purpose through, the uses- largely
through die church.' ,' '.-'
At the conclusion of the service
the teams that have been conduct
ing the canvass of the membership
made their reports and a call was
made tor pledges to push the fund
forward to the goal. Deeming It a
privilege and pleasure to have
some part In such a laudable un
dertaking nhe audience responded
to Dr. Scoville's appeal in a mar
velous manner and the effort that
followed resulted In the raising of
thousands of dollars In cash and
pledges. Many of the leading busi
ness Tirms of the city made large
cash contributions and were round
ly applauded for their liberality.
Visitors Present
In the afternoon another great
service was held, given over large
ly to the visiting ministers and
laymen. Dr. Louis Albert Banks, a
retired minister of national repu
tation, and one of the most out
standing authors and lecturers of
the country, spoke on behalf of the
other ministers and churches of
Rosebu'rg. The noblest kinship in
the world Is tho kinship of the chil
dren of Christ, Dr. Hanks said in
conveying the congratulations of
lie other church organizations of
the city.
Professor E. M. Patterson,' Pro-
rossor V. B. Hoven and Itev. C. C.
Morgan, Instructors and officers in
the Eugene Bible University, were
present to convey the congratula
tions and well wishes of that insti
tution of religious education and
training. Talks were also made by
Itev. Emory Snyder of Myrtle
Creek, Rev. James Earl Lndd of
Cirants Pass, Rev. William Siefke
of Nugget and Rov. Walter Stram

churches in the pluces where they

Great Thinkers
Exclude Christ
(Associated Press LrasnA Win?)
NEW YORK, May 7. A new
listing of the great thinkers of all
time, ragiug chronologically from
Confuclous to Darwin by omitting
Christ, was presented today by
Will I Jura nt, author and philoso
pher. Plato, Aristotle, Spinoza, Coper
nicus, Francis Ducon, Newton,
Kant nnd Voltaire were the other
eight men on the list.
'Jesus Christ, Moses, Caesar
and other such leaders were think
ers secondarily," said Durant.
'They were primarily moral
forces, reformers, or men of action.
Christ moved the world by feeling
rather than by thought."
Socrates is too much of a myth
for such a list, he said, and Ec
cliastes, tho greates thinker the
Jews have produced, would scarce
ly rank with the worlds' greatest.
The great Indian philosophers "are
all of the woozy kind because
they turned away from the world
In their seeking, after truth."
The list was given In an ad
dress before the congregation of
the free synagogue in Carnegie
hall.

"It la fortunate for you that you

ilton told Rapp in paHtdng sen
tence, "or you would doubtless be
befol-e this court on a churge of

experiment whenever a person be
comes Intoxicated and starts out In

that no person with nny sense
would do for it can only end in
most serious results. Tho court is
not going to impose a light sen
tence to encourage others lo go

cases as this must be dealt with In
a firm manner so that olhor per
sons may be discouraged from the
