TO MR, LEWIS Popular Member of Kiwanis Club Honored at Yester day's Luncheon Read the Classified Ads. Kiwanis club members gave three hearty endorsements at their weekly luncheon at the Mar ion, Tuesday noon. The first was the Invitation to go out to the Sa lem Indian school next Tuesday for noon luncheon, and dedicate the big new metal sign along the Oregon Electric railway and eat dianer prepared by the Indian girls of the domestic science class. The sign informs all passen gers on tbe railroad, that this is the biggest and best Indian school in America, and is the gift of the Klwanians. Clean-op indorsed The second endorsement was to Join unreservedly in a movement for a quick and everlasting clean up of Salem; a paint-np, c!ean-up. dress-up campaign, that lasts for 365 1-4 days every year. This mat- ; ter was presented by P. W. Jobel- mann. ....... The third was the club endorse ment cf C I. Lewis, who Is to leave Salem Sunday, to- take up his new work as editor of the greatest horticultural magazine in the world, in Chicago. They sang Tor He's a Jolly Good Fellow." and another parody on the same words to show that they believe in his ability to do big things in his new field and then they listened to and endorsed one of the best little soeeches that Mr. Lewis ever made. Self-Entertainment Needed "I had the chance to talk to a crowd of children, recently, said Mr, Lewis, "aod I asked them. 'How many of yon could go off in to the mountains, three six, 12 months, alone, and be happy?' or 'how many could get aboard a sailing vessel and sail for months, or years, away from people, and keep your good cheer?' And I ask the same of you men here. Few could do it. It is no personal re flection on any one. but it is a comment on our American 'na tional habit of wanting to be en tertained. We cannot seem to care for ourselves. The trouble with us is, that we do not have enough in terests, enough things that spring up within ourselves to keep our v ' j ,. . ..... ....I- - -.

We've all seen business men who were busy, wholesome, happy, who 'retired to take their ease; about th next thing we know of them, the un dertaker is calling for them they are dead from not having enough activities to keep them well. If we stop using either mind or body, we die. "I'm glad to think that I'll never retire that I shall always be busy; that is the normal life that is the only life. This Kiwa nis club is one of the good things that will help to keep you alive. It gives a place to play, to develop your power of extemporaneous speech, to get you out of your business and social ruts. Life isn't all in selling shoes or lands or bonds it is in the living as you go along. Fellowship Proper "This good , fellowship that wakes a man to the pleasanter things around him, is a start in the right direction. Get interested in thing outside of your business. Force yourself to do new things, to enjoy friendship, music and we'll never grow old. Mr. Lewis has been in Oregon for 16 years, most of that time at 6.A.C., but for the past two years with the Oregon Growers' associ ation. He is a Kiwanis club mem ber. Page Draws Prize The club favored an intensive, permanent "Better Salem" cam paign, to paint and prune and pave and clean up the city, and most of the members signed the pledge presented by Mr. Jobel- mann for the purpose of organiz ing such a movement. Scott Page drew the attendance prize, a dainty Oriental bureau scarf presented by Kafoury broth ers. A number of guests Were in troduced, some of them local, others from abroad.
