FRIEND OF J. D. ADAM
TELLS OF HIS WORK
William Moll Case Addresses
Members of Real Stuff
Last Night
College Speaker Will Give Se
ries of Seven Lectures
at University.
The work, character ami personality of
John Douglas Adam, the college speaker
who will give a series of seven lectures
at the University during the week of
February 19, was the theme of si talk
given by W. M. Gase, pastor of the Cen
tral Presbyterian church, to members of
the Real Stuff club in Guild hall Tues
day night.
The Real Stuff club is an independent
group of 110 college men organized to
handle the talks of .Mr. Adam and, as a
member declared, "to stimulate thought
in men nt Oregon on something besides
sports and classes nnd dances.”
Mr. Case described Mr. Adam, with
whom he has had a long friendship, as ‘‘a
mun, and a mun of powerful personality,
a man who really makes his hearers
think.”
"I am confident he will accomplish the
aim of the cluh,” he continued, “which I
understand is to make the men think on
the moral aspects of their life, and of the
truly vital things of which they are so
often only dimly conscious. Mr. Adam
will make you think and he will not beg
your pardon for doing so. He is of the
type possessing supreme physical vitality
and when you grip his hand you know
there is no mollycoddle on the other end
of it.
“Long will I remember the perfect tor
rent of fire he turned on his listeners in
St. Louis where I first heard him. But
he is not of the Billy Sunday type. But
he is a powerful speaker and is ample of
girth not only physically but mentally.

lar meeting in the Bungalow last night.
I The program for the evening was in

Blossom T ime in
the Golden State
A friend just back from Southern
California says: “The weather was
fine, in fact too warm for heavy
clothes. Many were bathing at the
beaches. Oranges were ripe in the
valleys, while the mountains nearby
were covered with snow.”
With warm sunny weather it will
not be long before the blossoms on
the trees will be everywhere announ
cing that spring time is here.
Take a vacation trip now where life is dif
ferent; where climate surroundings and
amusements are out of the ordinary. Spend
a different February.
