Dr. Hickman's ability and power, with his personal workers tnd music, would have coat any here Ifrom $2500- to $3000. The services are , to have Cyril Mee, an Australian song leader with the Ellison-White Chautauqua, as special singer and musical : di rector, lie has a baritone voice or fine quality, and the music promises to be a splendid feature of - the series. Sunday night's service opened with what is said to have been the most magnifi cent rendition of "America ever sung .in Salem; the Australian soldier leading; Prof. T.S. Rob erts on the splendid, big,1; newly reluilt organ, , and Prof. Riddle at the grand piano: It takes a man's strength to play the. piano for mass singing-, and the pia,no had snch a volume of tone. - . - - . .

Albany, Which1 Benefits Only Indirectly, Oversubscribes Amount. . Salem has contributed cash and pledges totalling $3,750 for the Children's Farm Home at Corval lis, according to the figures given out yesterday 'by Field Secretary J. B. Littler. The original call wasfor ?7,500 from all Marion county, and this makes' ju'st half the whole county apportionment already provided tor in Salem. ! A total of 540 subscriptions have been made) starting with three at $100 each, one, at $7 &, nine at $50. 17 at $25. 73 at $10-, 140 at $5.00, and others running down as low at 10 cents for chil dren who 1 have to earn money somehow, but haven't it in sight just atv this time. ' From one of the rural routes, a total of $100 has been reported. The bad weather has brought the canvass to a standstill, but as soon as it clears up, the committee hopes to go ahead with the re:;t of the rural routes, and the clean up in the city. Any subscriptions that may be sent from outside of town will be credited any way that is desired; to "the rest of Marion county out side of Salem, or however the sub scribers ask. The important thing is to get the money for the home, and get it into service as rapidly as possible to care for the hundreds of out-of-!uck lltUe folks that need its ministering care. Albany, that was a$ked to raise $2600, thought so well of the splendid r charity, that the city raised $6,100 for this enterprise that Is tributary to a rival town and brings nothing directly to.

EMANCIPATOR is p mi sec President , Harding Would Have Humanity Follow ) Lincoln Example. ' WASHINGTON, Feb. 12. The supreme gift of Abraham Lincoln was not in construction, but rather; in preservation, JPresident Harding declared in an address tonight at a Lincoln memorial dinner ten dered by friends of Lincoln Men mortal university of Cumberland Gap, Tenn. "Humanity itself," the presi deat declared, "needs to drink of the cup of unfailing confidence which enabled him to stand erect and unshaken amid- discourage ments ,and criticism which would, have erushed any less than a mas ter heart' and soul." The president spoke in part as follows: " "No human story surpasses the fascination and the inspiration of that) of Abraham. Lincoln. Tha republic pays-tribute tonight and most of the world is doing him. reverence, because in his unshak en faith the world finds its own hopes' mightily strengthened. Our words are all feeble, because we are dealing with the master mar tyr, the supreme leader in a na tional crisis, the surpassing believ er in a fulfilled destiny and a co lossal figure among the hero statesmen of all ages.. -. Hopes For nappy Day- Turn In w nvr .In tho Iriat fw days, the promises'! had made to add my own to the testimonies that here are to be spoken,- I have been impressively reminded of the greatly revived interest in everything concerning Lincoln', which has marked the pat few years, notably the last two. One cannot but observe how greatly the thoughts of people have turned to this man of vis ion, the great emancipator, who spoke with the voice of the com mon people fpr truth nnd for freedom: One xannot have failed to note that as the fortunes of mankind have confronted tribula tion and distress, the minds o$ men have turned to this son of the yearning, eager earnest, simple people and sought in the story of his life for guidance In the hour of humanity's trial. ! !"To me this has been a portent of hope, a justification of faith, a reason -for confidence that men will not only guide the bark of civilization through tho storms which beset it, but will at last bring, it into the port of a better and happier day." 1 ; t Appointment of Paid High way Commission Is Not $ Liked by House.
