.11 .1.: 6 I V. ' , i y ? , yy ; r : ; j - i - Author of 'Quote for the Day Disclosed as Former Pastor, Councilman and Businessman Have you noticed the little f Quote for the Day! paragraphs on The Statesman's editorial page lately? j f " The new thought-provoking feature, which already has attained wide readership, is a strictly home-grown, non-commercial idea. The "quotes" are provided by-W. W. Rose bra ugh, bead of the Salem fur nace company which bears his name, who has selected them from many sources over the last 20 years. The Bible Is a fertile field for such quotations. In. fact, it was the Bible from which Rosebraugh, a one-time minister in the . United Brethren ; (now the UEB) church, first drew the inspiration to col lect and pass on whatever phrases he found to be of value. f Field Widened - j But his field now has widened An avid reader, Rosebraugh in dudes in his collection scores of passages from "Crossroads," an in spirational periodical for Bible schools; U. S. News and World Report; Reader's Digest and dozens of other mediums of expression. He now has an estimated 2000 carefully chosen, and every month one of them appears each day'atop a memorandum, booklet which the Kosebraugh company sends to cus? tomers and other friends in many parts of the nation. j Rosebraugh. always keenly in terested in theology and philoso phy as" well as history which h$ once taught at, Philomath college traces a keen interest in mankind to -the devout Christian family io which I was raised. He is a naf. five of Charleston. I1L, but came to Oregon "with my wife, two chil? dren and $700 a half-centry ago. Fanner Minister I He was a minister for five years after coming west "and I didn't quit the ministry because I quit Christianity; I quit it when I was asked to manage a furnace plant; which I later - acquired; I have never ceased being a Christian, "One object of my life has been to ' demonstrate that a modestly successful business can - be con? , ducted on Christian principles; This I humbly hope has been done. Rosebraugh has been a member of the First Presbyterian church for many years and still teaches a Bible class "it s been 60 years since I started doing that and I've been doing it ever since. Served an City Council In the more than 40 years he has resided in Salem, Rosebraugh has served on the city council; helped form the planning and coning commission of which he now is chairman, and has been active in many civic affairs. ; And saving quotations is not his only hobby. He and his wife art enthusiastic Cower fanciers, as- their , home at 490 1L- Miller st snows. f I have drawn much inspiration and assistance from the brief par agraphs of quotations rve saved," Rosebraugh says. If they arc help ful to others in this confused world In which we live, I am glad. A good thought should never die. Indeed, It never win die if It helps one to change from the evil way to the good way.' Crcclidovm on ; t. : . . Taconh Vice SaidMomtins; TACOJIA. T7ash, Aug.
