.- - marks an achievement on the

Edwin T. Reed, college editor
of O. S. C. and a former presi
dent of the Corvallis chamber of
commerce, was speaker of the
evening, choosing for his topic.
"My Town." He. said he always
liked to quote the words of Lin
coln: "I like to see a man proud
' of his town; and I like to see a
town proud of a man."
Narrowing his theme, Mr. Reed
touched on New York, Chicago,
Seattle, Los Angeles and Reno" as
self-evident examples of extraor
dinary upbuilding from certain
viewpoints. In contrast he told
of Williamsburg. Virginia, the
home of William and Mary's col
lege, the main building of which
was designed in pre-revolution-ary
days by Sir . Christopher
Wrenn, who designed St. Paul's
cathedral of London. John D.
Rockefeller has made a gift of
110,000.000 to Williamsburg
to be . used in restoring this
Uttla tltv tn nrp-rpV.ilnHnnarT as
pects. Concrete walks are being
taken up, pavements torn out,
telephone and telegraph wires
concealed underground, and ev
ery device conceivable is being
utilized to perfect . the program
, of restoration, by adroitly oblit
erating all details of modernity.
Mr. Reed called attention to
the fact that many of our local
cities and towns are strategically
profiting through the vision and
cooperation of leaders, and gave
such specific illustrations as Sa
lem's wide streets, Eugene's edu
cational prominence and her cen
tralized transportation. Hood
. River's .world renowned fruit in
dustry, Ashland's Lithia park.
Wood burn's "berry center of the
world" slogan, and Monmouth's
1 service to the state as a basic ed
ucational center:
Mrs. J. S. Landers a former
president of the Civic club, gave
a resume of the club's activity
program toward achievement of
the city park, and sketched some
potential dreams which the mem
bers have in mind for future de
velopment.. She presented the
deed . to Mayor H. W. Morlan,
r 'with gracious expressions of ap
preciation , for the cooperation
extended to the Civic club, by the
mayor, and city council at every
tep of the park's upbuilding.
Mayor Morlan accepted the
deed with comments upon the un
tiring efforts of the Civic club
members toward achieving a city
park.
The total ' investment in hos
pitals in the United States ia $3,-100,000,000.
