Prof. H T. Griffith, of Portland, deliv
ered a course of four lectures at this place
last week, as follows: First Phrenology,
as Related to Human Advancement. Sec
nd How to Read Character. Third Ixe,
Courtship and Marriage, ending with a
phrenological wedding. Fourth Choice of
Pursuits, or One's Right Place In Life, and
how to And it, along with suggestions on a
higher civilisation. The professor's dis
courses were instructive and elevating
amusing the young, Interesting everybody,
and giving tho thoughtful new food for re
flection. Today a circular has been thrown into
our yard announcing that a great circus is
coming to Oregon City, June 11th. I -ess
than a year ago there was a similar an
nouncement What was the result? 11
us not forget. Such concern! are managed
by shrewd, unprincipled men. Their em
ployes are a low class. They are always
attended by a gang of swindlers, and take I
away large quantities of money, giving In j
return a few hours amusement, which only
demoralizes our people Instead of elevating 1
them. It is a grievous fact that our middle I
aged as well at young people patronise such
concerns. The example and intluence ol
such things are ol greater Importance than
the majority of fathers and mothers real
ize. I want to spiral to them one and all,
especially those who have not been think
ing. That they must think, and thinking
then act, the moral condition of our coun
try demands. Each mother, as well as fa
ther, must take a stand for the right if she
has the welfare of our people at heart. The
circus comes in with a grand flourish, giv
ing complimentary tickets to our county
and city officers to induce them to be deaf,
dumb and blind . The officers in turn hand
out the tickets to children and people to
buy popularity and votes to secure their
next election. When the circus visited us
last year, men who were fathers and sup
posed to be gentlemen, stood as capers at
the gaming tables, helping to bring their
fellow men down to degradation. Oh. 1 Hu.
manlty, where art thou? What blindness?
Voters ol our country fathers and mothers
let us thlnkl Think to a purpose; think
to better the condition of our people.
