HATE HOME I3T TEMFLE r - All three of the west side Woodmen camps have their home in the Wood men of the World temple, the temple being owned and managed by a build ing association representing the various . camps. : - ' - As early as 1908 an imperative need was found for a permanent home. Shortly following, small band of lead ers gathered together and organized the present Woodmen of the World Build ing association of Portland, Or-.with authorized capital stock of $20,000. The different camps subscribed to the stock in this new association and Immediately began to pay for the same by putting aside 10 cents per month for each member. In a few years enough money had been accumulated so PORTLAND'S WOODMEN BOAST BIG AND!

The camp in thS beginning met In several different hails and on different evenings until about the third year, when it secured quarters in the A. O. U. W. .temple .at Second and Taylor Streets, where it remained until new quarters in the Selling & Hlrch build tag on Washington street was secured. After 10 years at this location the camp, together with other west side camps, organised the present building associa tion and established their present per manent home at the Woodmen temple at Eleventh . and Washington streets.

Abraham a Starting Business on $100.00 From a business of $2000 the first year to $50,000 ''the sixth year.. ;r Sounds a little 'fishy,?' doesn't it? Yet, it is a true story of a business that is being- built right here in Port tand today. And the owner is still in his thirties with every prospect of continue i growth every year. . When he was i he was an employe at $180.0 a "yearwith exacUy 75 in the bank and a sweetheart to whom he was engaged. They talked ft over and de cided to take the plunge together. After the wedding their comblBed resources In cash' amounted to $18.50. But tiey set tled down Immediately upon the basis' of living on leas than , hisl income. 1a six months they had. saved $100. .- Then they took another plunge. H embarked in business oa "his own." The first three years - it was hard going. Gradually things eased up and today, after U years of close economy, sao rif Ice and hard . work, they are inde pendent. , v Some say It was luck. Some say every body helped him. 'Perhaps there is some truth in both ; but they deserved it. At the time they talked it all over and de cided to take th matrimonial plunge, they mapped out a complete policy and system to follow principles in which they both firmly believed. And they ad hered to tham tenaciously through thick and thin. , Although much of his work during the first few . years kept - him in ' overalls most of the time, he never allowed him self to run down in his personal ap pearance. That was the one thing above all that they agreed upon in the begin ning that is, the importance of a good "front," . No matter how many other things pressed for attention, no matter how; serious the need for funds, he made it a rule - never - to appear before , cus tomers or creditors without, being well dressed. Many eriUeised him and said he was vain and a ''simp" and other similar things. But he never wavered in h.1 policy. Ask him why be apparent ly went to the extreme in this matter and he will doubtless tell you as he told me one evening at hi home, that the first and most important reason was for the good effect upon himself, "Buddy and I .bqth took a course in psychology before we were married,' he said, "and thanks to the good pater who influenced me in doing so ; we early learned the lesson of how to effectively Invest in oneself. Every right action must first ba Inspired by right thinking. No man can think right about a propo sition unless he is at peace with himself. And how in the ' world can one be at peaoe with himself and the world unless he can make a good impression upon hi fellow, meat There are men who will toll you that good impressions can be made upon others regardless of one's appearance. That may be true ; it may also be true that many men have a Qrcng personal ity regardless of how they dress. But. would not ; that personality be still stronger , if fortified with a good per sonal appearance? . . "It works out automatically. Try It. A 1 . ; Spend a week about town in shabby, in different clothes. : Then dress up. - Tour spirits, pride, ambition, energy, faith, confidence, will go up a hundred-fold. It will affect your speech and poise ; you win have a smile for those whom yon meet Instead of a grouch. And, after a little while, you will hear it whispered about that you are a success. There's nothing truer than that old maTirn that "success begets success.' ; "How did I manage to keep well dressed during the first lean years? Easy enough. Long before I was mar ried, X knew about Joys system of let ting a man wear while he pays, how he gives you as good a fit and as good materials as youH find anywhere in the world, how -he can make you as low a price as though you paid all cash.' In fact, the use of this system was one of the tilings that made possible the exe cution of the policies that Buddy, my wife, and X agreed upon in the begin ning ; so you see this should be of inter est glad news, in fact to every woman who is ambitious for her husband to succeed. Don't misunderstand me about this. I don't mean that all you have to do to succeed, is to wear good clothes. Far from It. But no matter bow many good qualities you have, how experienced you are, how industrious or how good looking you are, you are handicapped unless you keep wall dressed." r- Joy, the Tailor, has been established in Port land a long time : he is located at .104 .

KEAELT 1fte MEMBERS 'Starting from . a membership of 29 Charter members, the camp has grown until it is now within reaching distance of 1000 members. Right from the very start the camp, together with its team, was always looked to as a formidable contender in any activities of the or der. Their officers always took a leading part in woodmen activities and the camp was never slow or tardy in see ing that its officers rendered a service to the community. f At the time of the San Francisco ' earthquake Portland camp was one of the first fraternal so cieties to send, a cash assistance to the sufferers. Also the victims of the Beppner flood ' found Portland camp offering a ready assistance. The degree team of Portland - camp has always been considered the leading drill team of the order. During its 25 years 'of existence it has never passed up an opportunity at competitive drills, with the result that its members, or as they are better known as Portland camps' white uniformed drill team, have to their credit a greater number of trophies than any other camp in the state. Portland camp drill team has been sent to nearly all of the head camp sessions and has won trophies at San Francisco, Seattle, 'Denver and other cities. At present the team officers are: Captain C F. J. Kurt. Lieuten ant S. T. Chapln and Lieutenant B. L. Chapin. The present officers of the camp are: K. EC. Schade, consul commander; E. H. Drew, past consul commander; Walter B. Schade, advisor lieutenant ; C M. Bequette. banker ; ' Herman Schade, clerk; W. &. Ward. A. W. Schmale, H. H. Haack. . managers ; J. K. Gladwyn, escort; F. T. Bowen, sentry, and J. Wrage, watchman.

The new president expressed his reticence in announcing , any faculty additions until th college budget has been officially approved, but he stated that he found several well-known educa tors at large institutions in the East willing to cast their lot with the Reed faculty, as did Dr. E. O. Sis- son, who leave the presidency of the. University of Montana to accept the chair of philosophy at Reed. The state universities in the East have gone number-mad. according to President Schols. who says a definite limit will be placed on Reed's enroll ment, and a proportion of one professor to every ten students strictly main tained. - Personal instruction and the conference method are desirable and necessary to an effective educational program, according to the Reed execu tive, inroiiment for the coming year will be limited to 300, If present plana are followed, and the standard of scholarship will probably be further raised.
