the two days? Do you know this did not include a bunch of young
girls who hud no place to sleep and were mothered in safety by the
Red Cross? Do you know that while the bands played and the
flags waved, somelxidy's heart had to be right with the desire to

Yes, thei is still joy in serving. (
, The intensely selfish people who live for self and a few asso
ciates are to be pitied. Their souls are waiped; they are under
nourished even though their incomes may be thousands of dol
lars each month; they are unhappy, why? Because all one gels
out of this life is what he can give to others in the way of service.
A.) a nation America has been one of service. When poor
Cuba was in the clutches of n Spanish master, it was America
who put the strong arm around Cuba lifting her from the mire
of despondency and placed in her mouth the sweet carol of lib
erty. The same occurred in the Philippines. Sei-vice, national
service nothing grander in the history of all nations.
,..And it is so with societies and individuals service, what a
joy to help the other fellow. Forget money nnd high living for
n while and render i little service just to see how you will relish
it. Do in your own way some of the things that the Red (Jrosa
did at IVieachtam. We believe you will lind a sweetness that is

j That "Feller,' Brown
I ; '
The Harding pally was line its personnel was exceptional
' but as an advance man that ."feller, Brown,'' Walter F. Brown
j of Toledo, was aliout the biggest boob who ever goth his courage
Up to cross the Rockies.
When "Brownie" cimie tripping through Oregon he had so much
? resting on his shoulders that oltl Atlas looketl like a red'ant build
' ilig an .ant hill by the side of Ohio brother whose duty it was
I to pull all the kinks out of Harding's trip and keep it normal,
r Of course, the Oregon Trad show at Meachani was already
cooked up before Eastern Oregon knew it could get the president.
Then the idea of having the chief was sprung, he was communi
cated with, expressed a desire to be here and the ileal was made.
" A little later along came "Brownie" who was fine to those whom
he met, except that he had his personal ideas of what a presi
dent should do and how the people who entertained him should
act. He pulled the Old Oregon Trail Pageant program to pieces;
and threw it to the rose lndcned winds of Portland, making a new
deal from start to finish. Of course Eastern Oregon people, being
iv little timid about presidents and those who officially represent
them, bowed low and graceful acceding to the Brown standard of
entertainment. And then Biviwnie went marching on to the next
place where the president expected to stop.
For some reason the original Oregon Trail program got into
Mr. Harding's hands along with the Binwii revision. The presi
dent's blood is red and he at once gathered the meaning of the
program. A wire came telling the Oregon people to disregard the
P.rown revision and stick to the original program, which was done.
We give this to our readers to show the caliber of Brown who
got into n game that was much too big for his ability. Yesterday
we read of the muss Bmwn pulled at the Seattle pageant where
great expense had )een gone to and a small admission fee was to
be charged. Brownie immediately took the high minded stand
1 thnt Abraham Lincoln never spoke where an admission was
charged and Mr.' Harding therefore could not. But Brownie for-j
pot that in the old Lincoln days everyone turned out and donated
their services to make n show or a celebration, whereas nowadays
it is a dollar an hour to most of those who work.
Incidentally, Eastern Oregon will remember Brownie a Ions
time, for he stuck the three towns for several thousand dollars
when he made the Trail association cancel its gate admission, bud
we wiir not remember him w ith anger not at all. Eastern Ore
gon people are not built that way. We will just reim'tnlier him as
one of those little nuts from Ohio who trail along sometimes with
big men like Harding.

PKKSIDKNTS' SONS.
Nashville Manner: Presidents sons
have rarely been assertive. The
first of whom we have any knowl
edge was John Quincy Adams, who
was on the way to his distinguished
career when his father wus; presi
dent. It was not as the son of ti
president that he achieved the presi
dency for himself, but despite it.
He never made capital of his father's
eminence, hut stood on his own en
titlements. .Martin Van Uuren had a son who
was a very distinguished sociult lead
er. They called him Prince John,
for his excellent, manners ami lavish
hospitality. The sons of Lincoln
and 15 rant kept modestly in the back
ground of public ami social affairs,
as did W'eoh Mavs, son of a presi
dent. Benjamin Harrison had a son,
Kussell, who played up the yanie
tpiite considerably. Once, while in
London, as we recall it, lie w as
asked what hM posit ion was in
America. "Oh, about like the prince
of Wales over here," he replied.
Tim statement provoked much lev
ity and resulted in Itussell's tpiick
extinction. He is still living, tint
the world lias passed him by.
Lincoln's onlv surviving sun lives
in Washington. He was a succe-;
in the world of affairs, and is living
out his life in the iuiet, eae and
dignity that he likes and is so he
coming.
lo-,evelts I toys were children
when he was in the White House.
One died in Krance in the perform
ance of a gallant ami dating act nml
the others are proving- worthy of
their distinguished lineajre.
Andrew Johnson had a sou who
was much in evidence duiiinr III
period when his father was president.
He was rather wild, but always
Kood-naturedly so nnd died in his
early manhood.
Young Rchard Cleveland achieved
I distinction at Princeton, served with
j credit during- the World War and has
1 since graduated at Yale in the law
I He comes of sturdy stock, on both
'sides, and is a steady, hard worker,
I as was his father. Those who know
him predict a .successful career. He
I may keep away from politics.
(Should he ever, however, p"! out for
i political honors, he will find many
I admirers of his father to give him
cheer and support.
All in all, our presidents have
! been men of lofty purposes, notable
j ability and have carried themselves
well in the big role, and their sons
! have done nothing to sully their
: fame.
