MOLALLA HIGH QUINTET
BEATS MILWAUKIE FIVE
Mrs. Francis Welsh, recently leav
ing this city for a visit with relatives
in Southern California, where they
are spending the winter, writes in
terestingly of their visit:
"It has finally quit raining here, af
ter three weeks of the greatest down
pour they have experienced in years,
but now the crops are assured for
this year, although great damage was
done to orchards and roads, for there
is no preparation for taking care of
so much water at any time in this
section.
"We visited Hollywood where we
had an invitation to attend the mar
riage ceremony of one of the leading
actresses, Lottie Pickford, and a Mr.
Fisher. The bride, who was divorced
before this marriage, is a atster of
Mary Pickford Fairbanks. The latter
attended her during the ceremony,
and' Douglass Fairbanks was also In
attendance. The bride was given in
marriage by her brother, Jack Pick
ford. "In our visit to ITniversal city,
where most of the actresses and ac
tors have studios, we saw wild ani
mals, volcanoes and such things that
are used to make films from.
"On Sunday morning we had the
privilege of hearing one of the world's
greatest heroes, Richard Pierson Hob
son. His subject was "Foundation of
Peace," which was on the temperance
line. He was introduced to the audi
ence by Ex-Lieutenant Governor Wal
lace, of California, who is also a very
interesting man. In the evening we
listened to a returned ' missionary
from India, whose subject was "Needs
of' India From a Christian Stand
point. His address was splendid, and
it made one want to do more to re
lieve the situation in that country
"Redland, where the Baptists have j
their college, was another place of in
terest we have visited. We arrived
at the noon hour, and proceeded to
find Eugene Pettibone, who Is a stu
dent of the Baptist college, and met
him as he was coming from, one of
the assembly rooms.
"Another interesting trip was to
the ocean, when we visited Palaside
beach, where the Methodist church
has a tract of land consisting of 1100
acres, which is the coming beach re
sort. We saw the Temple auditorium1
where Dr. Brougher officiates, and we
intend to attend service before leav
ing. "Among cjur trips we are planning
wi'l be one to Burbank, where we will
visit Mrs. Wolcott, who has been in
Oregon City on several occasions,
where she visited her daughter, Mrs.
O. A. Welsh, of that city, our daugh
ter-in-law. .
"The wind is blowing here in Lon
Beach, a regular 'Santa Anna as thay
call it, today, but we are enjoying our
vacation, and can't tell just when we
will be home again.

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu
gene, January 14. (Special) "The
small country weekly is a human
document, replete with human inter
ests, the record of the throbs and
pulsations of human hearts," said Up
ton H. Gibbs, editor of the Eastern
Clackamag News in an address on
"The Small Weekly as I Have Found
It" before the annual meeting of the
newspaper conference at Eugene Fri
day afternoon.
"It affords," continued Gibbs, "an
unrivalled opportunity to study hu
man nature at close range, and' for
the furtherance of human welfare by
the promotion of concord and good
will, and the advocacy of clean hu
man living."
CHANGE NOT REGRETTED
"I have not regretted my choice,"
said Gibbs, referring to his change
from the ministerial to the .newspaper
profession, "for I find it has much in
common with my former profession.
Both deal with the same human sub
jects and conditions and both clergy
man and editor should take to heart
Terence's well known classic line,
"Homo sum. Human! nihil a me
alienum puto," which may freely
rendered; "I am a man. I deem noth
ing human alien to me, even though
it be small town stuff."
"Advertising is my 'hobby' as well
as my bread and butter," said Paul
Robinson, editor of the Aurora Ob
server, in an address on "Why I
Solicit Out-of-town Advertising."
"I think of it almost continually,'
continued Robinson, "I work it nn-
tireingly; I dream it; I all but eat it.
In church, in business meetings, in
club meetings my though is "Adver
tise it." Any topic that is brought up,
I answer "Advertise it." An individ
ual or a company can . accomplish
anything by advertising. Without it
he can do very little."
QUESTION IS CITED
"My weekly paper is located on the
Pacific highway, midway between
Portland and Salem. I am also 15
miles from Oregon City therefore in
the buying territory of three good
market points, besides my own trad
ing center of Aurora. The home bus
iness houses are not numerous
enough; I need more business to buy
more biscuits for the babies, and the
question comes .up, "How do I solicit

out-of-town advertising?'
"I will not carry, knowingly, an
advertisement that is false or mis
leading and in return, I apply the
same policy to my ad soliciting."
"My rate happens to be 20 cents
per inch, and 20 cents they all pay,
regardless of where located or what
they sell. I receive inspiration and
.hunches' from- reading 'The Editor
and Publisher,' -Pacific Printer' and
exchanges, and apply every new 'Idea
I can secure. This boils the answer
down to the simple fact that I go af
ter it, continue to go after it, and
have the goods to deliver."
MAIL CAMPAIGN USED
Robinson then told of how he
solicited and built up a subscription
list after which he said, "My circula
tion pretty well established and rap
idly growing, I began a mail cam
paign for advertising. I wrote an
average of 200 letters a month. I
catered to stores not represented at
home. We have no exclusive gents'
furnishing goods, no furniture store,
no auto and tractor house, no music
house, consequently I annoy these
stores in my other towns. I solicit
them all, however, and often send out
circulars, cards and advertising mat
ter between leters. I make it a point
to visit many of the places once a
month. They now know me when
they see me coming, and probably
write an ad to get rid of me.. But it
pays them, and my advertising pa
tronage is Increasing."
"In closing, I would only suggest
that if you would get more advertis
ing, turn your guns in your own
direction first and advertise your own
advertising columns."
Mrs. Susan Buchanan, 67, wife of
C. J. Buchanan, formerly of Oregon
