OREGON CITY HIGH LISTEN TO SAWYER PUBLICITY SECRETARY MAKES TALK ON "GOCD CITIZEN- In reaponse to an Invitation. Sec retary Sawyer, of the Publicity De partment of the Oregon Cltv Commer. clul Club, delivered an addreaa before the high school Wednesday. He se lected as bis subject. "Good Cltir.en. ship." u -substance, Mr. Sawver said: The love that a man bears for hla molher should be the first In mind; second, hla Jove for his country and Its flag. Good Cftliiinshlp Is founded pon loyalty. All progressive nations nve made progress because their citl- zena were loyal. The Declaration of Independence was made to atnnrt and Is an evidence of the strength of character brought lo America from real Britain by our forefathers. It na the same spirit which actuated lr Edward Coke, who dured. In tho Petitions of RUhts. to dtrlnre tho octrlne that the klnc was not alne the law. The habeas corpus act was another foundation stone in the temple of hu man titierty. The statute of William I nd Mary 1, settling the succession of ; 'he crown, and establishing Ihe rights ui tne subject was another. Vpon thla statute were based the first eight amendments to the Federal Constitu tion, and from them again, come the Declaration tf Rights which ore em bodied in the constitutions of every state in the pnlon." Mr. Sawyer quoted from Shakes peare ami from Goldsmith to show how slrong wna that love of country that his iiIwuvr been the rule with progretslve peoples that "amor pa triae" Of Which Unriino a.ionLo Ua traced the common law, "that noble code." trom Its origin In England, and said t Ilit law was the foundation of the Anericun common law. He ilea- crlbed (he difference between it and tne t'oie Napoleon, under the for mer, a man Is presumed to be Inno cent of 1 crime with which he may be charged; tho burden nf proof resting upon tie stnte. I inter the latter, a man is presumed to be guilty, and he, nimself, must Drove his Innocence The sleaker then branched out upon the Biibfct of good thoughts and good ssociau8, saying that these womd elevate hose practicing them. He ad' vised hit hearers to always speak well of other' and to refuse to allow nmllce envy, hdred or Jealousy to find room In their jelng, declaring that this was a beautitl world and the span of life too ahor to be given over to their consideration. On the other hand, he said hat evil thoughts would re turn to heir originator and strike them llk a boomerang. He ended his renutKB with a Quotation from Bryant's Thanatopsls." , Effort will Be Made By Commercia Club to Secure Full Count In ' Clackamas Supervisor Holds Conference. President Randall, of the Oregon City Commercial Club, will lasue a call for volunteers to assist In secur ing a complete census In Oregon City and Clackamas County, as soon as the necessary blanks are received from Robert J. Hendricks, census supervls or for the first congressional dlstiist. Mr. Hendricks came down from Salem yesterday afternoon and held a con ference with Enumerators Brown, Heard and Greaves, and officers and members of the Commercial Club. It has been reported by William G. Klelnsmlth, of Mullno, that between ftoo and 1000 people in Milk Creek pre cinct and adjacent territory have not been enumerated at all. Just how the omission in Mullno came to be made Is not known, but an Investigation will be made and If the report is correct an enumerator will be aent there. The call Issued by Secretary Sawyer, of the publicity department, has been productive of good results. The close limits of Oregon City will bring the returns here close to the 6000 mark. w r . ; ' ' - 'r ..-V - " 1 " 1111 ' i J. H.
