TEACHER'S OPPORTUNITY

The strength of the United States
depends upon the practical patriot
ism and sound economic thought of
her future citizens. These charact
eristics mutet be developed in the
daily life of the school, says William
Mather Lewis, director savings di

Economists agree that the uni

gent saving will strengthen our na

Thrift Stamps ' and " War Savings
Stamps is doing . much for their
economic ' strength - and practical
patriotism. . f.v.. '
Each child who. buys stamps feels
a partnership' in the government; he
learns the wisdom of investing his
money in securties that are abso
lutely safe; he becomes famliar in a
practical way with compound inter
est; and as he sticks stamp after
stamp- upon the card, he has a visu.
al demonstration of how savings
grow.
Faith without works is dead.
Thrift without safe investment,
such as government savings secur-
and political-1 ities, is robbed of its benefits. Its
virtue lies not only in its principles

Portland-"If you do not back up
the agricultural industry there is
no use promoting any other indus
try on the const, because agricul
ture is a basic' industry and the
country's prosperity depends on it.
No man is normal who is not in
touch with the soil." So laid Dr.
Harvey W. Wiley, formerly head of
the government's pure food bureau
and known as the "father of the
pure food laws," in an address be
fore the members' forum at the
Chamber of Commerce Monday.
Dr. Wiley departed far afield
from his usual stamping grounds in
regard to pure food, health and long
life, and becme an able champion of
the tillers of the soil, declaring that
he himself was a farmer "and a good
one." In the course of his instruc
tive and entertaining lecture the
noted pure food expert san-astically
tn pvprnl measures to be
I til 1 I Mr - - -
voted on by the people of Oregon at
the coming election.
Speaking of the- anti-vaccination ,
measure, which had previously been
assailed in no uncertain terms by
Dr. Alexander Fleischner, assistant
secretary of the Metropolitan Life i
Insurance company, Dr. Wiley de
clared that the title of the bill was)
a misnomer and that it should be ;
called "a bill for the increase in ,
mortality in children." j
"Never before have I been in a j
! community where matters pertain-,
ing to public health have been taken i
out of the hands of experts and put '
to a vote before the people," de
clared Dr. Wiley. "I do not think1
that a parent in this state who has
children of school age will vote for i
this measure, because it means that ,
the school children will not be pro-!
tected against contagious diseases.
But the subject that evidently lay j
nearest the speaker's heart was the I
problem confronting the agricul-'
tural industry as a whole throughout
the country the problem of organ
ization, so that a just return could
be guaranteed tho farmer for the
capital invested.
"The farmer himself has never
been able to set the price for his
product," declared Dr. Wiley. "It!
has always been set by someone
higher up. A good example can be
found in the food administration of
tha late war. The manufacturers,
the millers and the middlemen were
guaranteed a certain return on their
product; the farmer was guaranteed
a minimum for his wheat. This so
called minimum turned out to be a
maximum, with the result that the j
farmer was left in the lurch, as J
usual.
"I am not in favor of any organi-
zation that will take the individual
ity away from the individual, but I '
am in favor of a union of farmers '
whereby a reasonable return for his
product is insured and an increased
productivity will follow.''
After a summary in regard to his
position in regard to agriculture, in
which he pointed out that every cen
sus return showed an increased con
gestion in the large cities and re
affirmed his belief that the answer
lay in a policy of educating the peo
ple to keep in touch with the soil,
Dr. Wiley turned his attention to
the pre'sent monetary system, de
claring that he believed he had dis
covered a medium of exchange that
would prove invariable under all
economic changes.
"We need a standard of value
that does not change," he said.
Gold, our present standard, has !
changed considerably during the i
last two or three years, because gold
is cheaper now in that it will buy
only half as much as formerly. We
need a Kf-nndnivl nf uoliv, Ut '
v. .alur. Lllilb Itf in- i

"I believe that I have found rucv, a I
standard, and I am the only -person I
in the world who advocates this
principle. I refer to a standard
which I have named 'Valdex,' which
is nothing more nor less than the
value of the amount of food neces
sary to support an average man for
period of one day. This unit rvf
