he ran too fast to get there. The
present race may prove an exception".
Dr. Ford said that from one point of
view there were too many churches
in Oregon City, as had been charged
by the speaker in the Open Forum of
the Methodist Church. There is no
way to get rid of any of them, howev
er, he asserted. The Baptists wouldn't
suit, and the people did not want
them to. The Methodists wouldn't quit
and the people did not want them to.
The Episcopalians "wouldn't quit and
the people did not want them to, and
it was so with all denominations.
"It is not what we think of the
number"; said Dr. Ford, "but it is the
time element that will work out re
sults that we should consider. I am
a firm believer in denominationalism.
I believe in churchanity as I do in
Christianity. But I believe that all
churches put together are larger than
one church. I believe there are thous
ands of men and women who are not
identified with any church who are
good christians. What we need is the
adoption of the principle of coopera
tion. With a united program, backed
by the men and women of the church
es, we can do what we please. The
trouble is we do not work together.
The federation started in this city will
enable us to have a common program."
Dr. Ford said there -were enough laws
and if the officers elected by the peo
ple knew they had the churches unit
ed behind them they would accomplish
more.
"The trouble is", continued Dr.
Ford, "we let the lawless, whose bus
iness is lawnessness, control. If we don't
hang together as christian citizens in
this city, we'll hang together without
doubt".
Gilbert L. Hedges, who was elected
a member of the brotherhood, made
a strong address, his theme being
"International Patriotism '. He said
the time would come when not only
churches would preach international
patriotism, but it would be urged in
all literature. He pleaded for the
brotherhood of men, and said it would
come, and then wars would be abol
ished. The Hague Tribunal, he
thought, might accomplish better re
sults if it could appeal to the indiv
ual more instead of entirely to the
nations. Mr. Hedges welcomed a un
ion of the churches for a betterment
of civic, state and national conditions,
and said the churches would do the
larger part in bringing about inter
national patriotism.
Interesting talks were made by L.
Adams, C. S. Noble, James Roakeand
other members of the brotherhood.

Rockefeller can write a few words
on a piece of paper and make it
worth $50,000. That's capital.
The United States can take an ounce
and a quarter of gold, stamp an
"eagle" on it aud make it worth $20.
That's money.
A mechanic can take material worth
$5 . and make watch springs worth
$1,000. That's skill.
A woman can purchase a hat for $3,
but prefers one which costs $30. That's
foolishness.
A ditch digger works ten hoars a
day and bandies several tons of dirt
for $1.25. That's labor. Power, and
Efficiency.

To the directors of the Library As
sociation of Oregon City: Accompan
ying this is the statistical report for
the year 1911-1912, also the report
which Miss Stinebaueh left, whi p.h will
complete the records for the year.
ssince taking up the duties of librar
ian on October 18, 1912, there have
been registered 60 new memhfirH and
a slight increase in attendance has
oeen noiea. An inventory was taken
of the books which circulate and pos
tal cards sent to all borrowers who
were delinquent. We feel, that these
missing books will be returned or re
placed in a short time so will defer
a report on this matter until a later
date.
The lists of periodicals for 1913 and
of books for purchase will soon be
ready to submit to the hook commit
tee for approval.
Respectfully submitted,
FRANCES LOUISE HOLMES,
Librarian.

HFLPFULNESS.
There is -contagion in a sweet
and beautiful character, for health
is contagious as well as disease. We
are all the time giving to others
either wholesome or unwholesome
moods poisoning their atmosphere
with doubt and suspicion or clearing
it with helpfulness and good cheer.
Different Opinions.
"There's a sad ease," said Mrs. Jones
as she laid the paper on her knees and
wiped her spectacles. "A bride struck
dumb after leaving the altar, and by
last accounts she hadn't recovered her
speech." -
"It's the way of the world, my dear,"
said old Mr. Jones, with a sigh. "It's
the way of the world. Some men haye
all the luck." London Opinion. .
SIMPLICITY.
Only small souls assume exclusive
airs. The more truly a man the
more simple do we find him. Rare
ly, do we come in "contact with a
person from whom we may not
receive something if we meet him
on the plane of a kindly human
sympathy and with simpliaity.
A Familiar Legend.
"I ought to have some legend con
nected with the place," said tbe land
lord. "They bring trade, legends do.
There needn't necessarily be any truth
in them, you know."
"Stick to the legend that yon are
tunning a first class hotel." advised the
guest. "That legend will catch a few
greenhorns every year." Louisville
Courier-Journal.
