THE PRESENCE OR THE LORD "And God spake unto Israel In
the TisloQsof the night am Odd, the God of thy father: fear

Lincoln And Washington
v ; ; prjC." G: Doiiey; president? of Willamette university,.iri
Ilia address at the Salem- Rotary club luncheon Wednesday
noonr said : "No nation is poor thai can produce great men and
nocTorgei xnem.
!r His & reference was 4 especially 4 to Washington and
- Washington born to wealth and perhaps the richest man
in the country .to; his Jteand.-Iancoln1' born to poverty and
,witHout even the common advantages of the poor of our day
throughout his youth - 1 : I . -
Ij Yet the one was the leader of the struggle that gave the
United States her independence, and the other was the center
of the terrific storm out of, which emerged a preserved
"union; the outstanding leader among the nations of the
world in firmly establishing the ideals of democracy and
'holding aloft the torch of government of the people, by the
people, for.the people before the eyes of all humanity.
i ; Unselfish devotion to the causes which they represented
and espoused and the struggles for the success of which they
Jed, was the moving spirit of the lives of botli
j, ; Each giving his last full measure of devotion, without
'the faintest' thought of; his own ; fortune ; alike tempted and
i, tried and misrepresented and misunderstood, and yet -with-;'out
the faintest blemish of self seeking. -'
If men are born for special purposes, divinely set apart
for great .tasks, Lincoln and -Washington were so born, and
1 each fulfilled his appointed place.
Washington would accept no salary as President of the
United States; would not listen to offers of a. third term;
spurned a gesture towards making him a king. , ) ' .
' The nearer approach the great body of the Anierican
v people can make to the ideals of Liccoln and Washington, the
I firmer will be our democracy; found! on equal privileges for
j: all, dedicated- to thh doctrine that it is the inalienable right of
every one to enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
ORIENTATION
The use of the word Orientation is taking on a wide
meaning i far different from what it signified in ancient
times, or even up to a few years ago ,
And it now signifies such a thing as the proper treat-
ment and employment Hhe proper placing of such a group
I as is found in the Oregon state penitentiary or the Oregon
state institution for the feeble minded :
And its application is beginning to be widely advocated
f for the public schools of the country, and finally even to the
I whole DODulation . - v -'. - ?

il drafted men for the World war when it was found that 10
g Per cent of them were below the mentality of the average

were originated Dy Alfred Binet, a learned Frenchman, and
I they were improved by; what is known as the Stanford revis
I ion in' the United States. They are now regarded generally
!i as authoritative T 1 " ; " ; , ,
$ h Originally the word Orientation had to do with pagan
worship of the rising sun.' Later it was used to indicate the
jj position of churches, in, which the altar was placed at the
easterly end (Orient meaning East) , so that the congregation
in its worship faced the sun-rising. The temple' at 'Jerusalem,
we are told, was thus built. ' Also graves in cemeteries were
so arranged that at the resurrection the raised bodies would
face thafeasi'.--; .hv -,;u-v,, ;- . -s "

respect to a vocation, that thus; they may get "the best out

During the World war, the word was over worked by the
Germans, with f the meaning that covered the Tambitio: of
Kaiser Bill and his underlings if orj reaching out after new
possessions and trade through the? extension of the Berlin
to Bagdad railroad. , '- w 1 , - ; ,i ' '1,

B. C. Miles, president of the

Astoria Rotarians recently. About
flax, of course. The fishermen
down that way can take a lot of

Law abiding citizens should not
be deprived of employment simply
to provide work fof. law-breakers
in the penitentiary. The flax-industry
as now conducted in the
penitentiary is depriving no ' free
worker of employment. But
when it comes to putting a i local
industry out of business, as is con
templated in Governor Pierce's
recommendation, as .to manufac
ture of auto license plates, the
proposal Is intolerable. Oregon
Voter, Portland. The proposal is
right absolutely. It will sav&
the taxpayers in two ways. It will
give cheaper license plates,, and
it will help make the penitentiary
self . supporting. Washington
makes her plates' at - the ' Walla
Walla penitentiary. No small pri
vate graft tnust stand in the way
of "the. interests .of "the whole
people. That proposition Is In
tolerable, and inprudent.
