WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY SUNDAY

' , i (Editorial in Pacific Christian Advocate)
llishop Hughes, just before he left Portland a few weeks aeo.
designated next Sunday, April 18th, as Willamette University Day,
and sent a letter to the pastors of the Oregon Conference asking them
to observe the same. Never before had ha asked the pastors to set
aside aday for any special feature, and we shall honor his memory
by conforming to his wishes in this matter.
What is the object of a special day?
; . Willamette University needs help, and needs it immediately.
" Waller Hall, which was almost destroyed by fire, must be re
stored; the new Lausanne Hall, a dormitory and home for young la
dies, must be built; and other "betterments are needed for the ac
commodation of the enlarged student body.
; i A few facts will indicate the greatness of the needs of the Uni
versity. The enrollment now is 446, an increase of forty per cent
over that of 'last year; some of the classes are compelled to meet
in rooms in the First Methodist Church; chapel services are held m
the church and they nave been cut from five to two a week; and
young women attending thef University lack the facilities which they
should enjoy. A condition confronts the trustees, and they are just
entering upon a campaign in order to meet it in a satisfactory way.
After a careful examination of the situation by a competent
committee it has been decided that a fund of $100,000 is necessary
at this time to do the things indicated above. The Laymen's As
sociation of the Oregon Conference stands squarely behind the prop
osition and proposes to see it through. Headquarters have been
' opened in Room 505 Piatt Building, Portland, from which the cam
paign is to be handled. - -
' f No one who ever heard Bishop Hughes in an educational address
will, doubt for a moment his enthusiasm over the undertaking, nor
fad, to appreciate his high motive in naming Willamette University
Sunday. It was his wish, as well as that of the committee in charge
of "the work, that the story of the University be told, its achieve
ments, in Christian education related, the urgent needs of the pres
ent situation made known in all our churches, and the fullest co-operation
. with the financial managers encouraged.
Bishop- Hughes often referredto Willamette University as the
greatest 'single interest of Methodism hi Oregon, and so it is.' Let
it be held aloft next .Sunday in all our Churches.
Did you ever find that when out of doors at night you can see better
without your glasses than you can with them? It is rasily explained.
In the first place, the two necessary requirements for seeing well an,
a correct focus and good light. Optical lenses give the correct focus but they
also reflect part of the light. In the daytime, when there is plenty of light,
the reflection from the lenses is not noticed. But at ijight, when the light is
dim, the amount reflected by the lenses reduces the total amount of light so
much that you tan see better if you take off your glasses.
It is only through study and experience that an optical specialist can hope
to render a service that is capable of giving to any pair of eyes, no matter
what their individual requirements may be, the exactly correct pair of glass
es that will keep their vision up to its maximum .best. That is the kind of
service which we are prepared to render. It ranges all the way from single
vision lenses to help eyes that are overworked, to the wonderfully fine
lenses for both near and far vision as represented by Kryptoks (pronounced
Crip-tocks) the only invisible bifocals.

World becomes thus as fine a piece
of sophistry, aa has been uttered dar
ing the present eaiqpalgn. Distin
guishing between personal rights
and property rights is like trying
to come between the tree and the
bark-- Remove, the. bark and the
tree dies for want of nourishment,
while the bark becomes a worthless,
empty hull. '
Free exercise of personal rights
is possible only in the savage state.
Aa soon as communities are formed
the individual,, right must gire way
to the right of the greatest num
ber, property rights are equally
limited; , for every right nnder a
free government entails a corres
ponding duty. The possessors of
property must bear the entire ex
pense. of government. They must
educate' the children of those who
are too profligate or too onfortun
ate to be able to educate their own
offspring. They must pay the ex
pense of protecting life and health
and of punishing malefactors. They
must care for every member of the
community who. for any reason, is
not able to care for himself. If
they fail to use their property for
any one of these purposes It is seiz
ed by the state and sold for taxes.
ft has been truly said that a man
does not own the property assessed
to his name but that his property
owns him.

Replying rp a, query from a woman
voter who asked the difference be
tween the political beliefs of a Dem
ocrat and a Republican, the New
York Wbrld says editorially:
"There is this fundamental dif

Republican: a Democrat id rovern

ment is concerned primarily with
personal rights and a Republican
is concerned primarily with prop
erty rights." 4
How nfee! According to the
World's theory the capitalists are all
Republicans and the anarchists are
sit Democrats. Rut how about the
great majority of Americans who
live neither from Incomes. Inherited
or acquired early In lire, nor by
their wits. ; whose personal rights
and property rights are so Inter
woven that you cannot strike one
without hitting the others? ,
What is the first of personal
rights? ;
