Child welfare, Am ericanization, conservation, the strenu ous life, nil sprang from his vision. An enthusiastic response is pouring in from nil over the Ninth district, from women who pledge themselves to work In the campaign. At the meeting of the Minnesota Federated clubs at Kit tle Falls, the bends of every woman's organization in the state pledged their club to meetings and work for the me morial. There will be exercises In all the public schools on bis birthday, and apeechea at nil gatherings. It is pro posed to raise tho money, but accom plish A renaissnnce of his teachings and principles. We are going to make permanent and abiding memorials in this territory he loved, by dedicating to him in each town and village, a grove, n lake, or a park. We shall transform ninny of our natural beau ties Into lustini? memorials bv the1 part, pay its way nt:d make for the state a reasonable dividend? There arc those who argue that the state ex perimental farms .should not be ex pected to make any money. Perhaps thqre is ground for such n statement. The Observer does not believe the prime feature of a stiff e farm should be money making, but we also hold to the opinion that a good-sized tract of first class Oregon soil should so be handled that it would be possible to have fair returns to the state from the operation of the farm. The Portland Press club has an in dustrial annual issued under date of October. 1!M!, which contains some full-page nds. and a lot of booster mat ter designed to educate the public to the naeds of what, was once termed 'big business,' but which today is taking the place of the adopted child nt tho family dinner table. Iubltcity is recommended to heal the sores and make the afflicted whole, and we agree with the press club on this or any other decision relative to the merits of publicity, so let tlu annual live for n long time and here's hoping the pro ceeds from the advertising may make up the deficit in the press club's treasury. c a package before the war c a package during vthe war c a package THE FLAVOR LASTS SO DOES THE PRICE! 1 rYr n ' I o . o " .
