SATURDAY, A Boy King Ainenhotep IV was a boy king in Egypt in the days of its imperial glory, 1400 years before Jesus of Nazar eth was born. Thebes, the seat of government, was the center of a highly developed and immensely rich civiliza tion. Many gods were worshipped there, including lia, whose devotees had brought their religion with them from Heliopolis, and Amen, patron god of Thebes. Amenhotep IV was a thinker. His mother, Queen Tiy, was of a school of thought which had como down from the north. She influenced .the boy. And Amenho tep IV conceived the idea of a monotheistic religion and a universal, spiritual god the first recorded con ception of the kind that the world has known. He was unable to take Ins conception completely away from the idea of sun worship, but he did conceive of a god who was spiritual rather than corporeal, who was omnipo tent, omniscient and omnipresent, who was imperceptible to sense and who loved and watched over all people and all peoples alike. The. boy king called this god Aten. i So sure was Amenhotep IV that he had. discovered truth that he wanted the witli him. And he fell into ages nave committed, lie upon those around him. Ho made it the state religion in Thebes. At first ho tolerated the old religions also and let their devotees practice them. His tolerance did not last. Tolerance seldom does last when one is zealous, a king and all-powerful. Temples in Thebes of the gods other than Aten were destroyed by the king's order. Tablets honoring those gods were defaced or effaced. There was literal compliance with the king's com mand, but compliance did not carry with it conversion, ;Many in Thebes clung to the old gods. They could not conceive of a god who loved all peoples alike, who was not vengeful and who did not take sides for some and against outers. Amenhotep IV sensed the in Thebes. He saw reminders all about him of the old and, as they seemed to him, erroneous religions. Ho blamed the environment. So he gave an order and one day the king and all his court set out down the river Nile on a great tleet or barges. , Three hundred miles below Thebes they landed at a bcautilui spot surrounded by cliffs.- There the boy kjng ordered that a city be built which should become the seat of government and whose temples should be dedicated wholly to the one god, Aten. It was done. The (Dity of the Horizon rose thore. In these latter days the site is known as Tel el Amarna.. His own royal title the king changed to Akhenaten, "spirit of tho solar disc,"-to bring it into harmony with the titlo of tho deity in wheh he oolicved. The king removed his capital to tho City of the Horizon. . In the great temple which ho had caused to bo raised there he worshipped his one god Aten. He composed hymns in sentiment and rytlim most beautiful. One of them is closely paraphrased, verse by verso, by our own One Hundred and Fourth psalm, which was not written until at least 400 years later. The beautiful City of the Horizon provod a fool's paradise Only for a scant few years did 'Akhenaten reign and worship thero. So takim up had ho boon with , Lis religion that tho king had neglected business of stale, lie had failed to protect against foreign invasion . his distant provinces. Ho was out of touch with thoir people. They murmered and tho empire's power waned. Finally, in about tho 28th year of his age, tho boy king died. Soon his people, convinced that their misfortunes wcra duo to their havng deserted their old" gods, repu diated the god Aten. They went, bag and baggage, back to tho ancient capital of Thebes, with its variety of gods to worship. The City of the Horizon was deserted. In a few years it was in ruins. Then tho sands swallow ed it. Quito recently it was dug out and with it tho records which revealed what has been recounted hero. Akenhaten 's troublo was that ho was a few cen turies ahead of his times. His teaching of h universal beneficient god and of tho law of love among men fell on deaf ears. The world was not ready for it, and so it died. Discussions concerning religious tolerance, of I. . 1- 1 t i V . i i . wnicn wo are Hearing a gooa cieai tnoso days, make timely this story of a monarch who was religiously sincere but who was not tolerant. There is not very much that is now. Tho golfer once more turns unrepentant sinner. His Now Year resolution requiring regular church attend ance slips from him liko Omar's oft mentioned winter garment. His wife decides to make tho family unanimous in absence and stays homo to plant tho sweet-pea seeds and take a chance again this year on tho frosts. "How is the Lake creek road from Blaekloy to Swiss Iloniet" nsks the .Waltonite. He has the itching arm that fore casts, an empty seat when tho choir opens tho Sunday service. Tho air is warm and tho sun unco moro show's his face after a period of hiding. Tho day of hog fuel utilization has arrived. Over at Coos bay a plant for the generation of electric power which will servo tho whole Coos bay district will burn hog fuel. Tho University of Oregon and Oregon Agri cultural college use hog fuel. So do various important buildings in Eugene. Demand for it is increasing. Thus has grown up the utilization of what was onco a monu mental waste. Oregon's presidential electors will canvass the vote of the state at Salem Alonday. To relieve tho breathless public Buspenso wo don't mind saying now that wo have inside information indicating a verdict iu tho state for Coolidge.

There are aims on the highway north and south of this fatal curve, "Dangerous, drive carefully, icy pave ment," and no doubt the victims of the tragedy read them and acted upon them, but driving carefully can do nothing for a car once it strikes an incline of ice such as the highway presented at this point last Saturday. Siskiyou and Shasta county authori ties bare sprinkled gravel and Baud over several icy stretches which gives temporary protection, but this will soon be washed off and unless mors is put on, another silver thaw will bring another tragedy as certainly as the sun will rise tomorrow unless proper highway protection is provid ed. Winter motoring has come to stay. The Pacific highway has come to stay. The Pacific highway from Se attle to San Diego will be a thorough fare every day in the year, regardless of weather'conditions. State authorities in California, Oregon and Washington should lake prompt action and in co-operation with county authorities, see that ev ery dangerous curve particularly on an incline be guarded by rail or abuttements. Public safety demands it. TRYING TO ABOLISH GOD (Corvallis Gazette-Times) We do not seem to accomplish much, yet, we get about as far as Zinovief of RuBsia and Colles of Mex ico. Hoth these worthies set about to abolish God. Zinovicf publicly an nounced that he "would pursue his attacks on Almighty God from time to time," apparently when ho was not busy with more important duties. Calles was not quite so bombastic but more practical. He started In with abolishing Christmas as a holi day in the government offices to show his contempt for Christianity. When a government official goes to the ex tent of cutting down his holidays, be at least gives notice to the world of the genuineness of bis convictions. Rut, thousands of years after both of these gentlemen are dead and forgot ten, religion will be doing business In the same old stand. UNIVERSITY PRESIDENTS' ' LABORS (Albany Herald) Are we working the heads of our higher educational institutions too hard? When Dr. Doney, president of Wil lamette university, was granted leave of absence for the purpose of wooing back his shattered health, this paper took the position that our univirsity presidents are overburdened by re sponsibilities and bard work. Follow ing close on his breakdown, President Campbell of the state university tot tered under his load, Within the pnet 10 days have come tho announce ments that President Rurton of Mich igan university and President Kerr of the Oregon Agricultural college are suffering prostrntion. It was stated that Dr. Rurton might be com pelled to abandon his work altogeth er. it Is not an easy matter to produce a remedy. It is not feasible to divide responsibility. There must be one head, one supremo authority In every enterprise. Neither is it expedient to limit the numbers of young people who attend them nor to break up the institutions into smaller units. The relief is not forthcoming within the institutions themselves. Rather must it coine from the outside The public can lighten the load appreciab ly by leasing its demands upon the time and energies of the presidents and it can contribute to the legitimate demands of tho institutions' growth by cheerfully providing the funds which are essential.

"1 always thought I loved New York City so hut somehow I Just long for a comfortable, little cottage where there are trees and flowers and plenty of fresh air," I confessed.

I asked after silent specula tion for a few minutes, 1 had thought about the. little cottage so often, and now that I knew Kent wanted it too 1 longed to rush out of the city Im niediaely. "It would be best to w-ait for spring now, Robs." Kent declared. "I want to go slow about buying a house we want (o got Just the right place you know. "Yes, I suppose it would be better to stay where we are for the winter," I answered. I did not tell Kent, hut I somehow had a strange d,'sire to get out of town.

In a hurry. My thoughts were ofPSn planning ami dreaming happily of what the little cottage would be like and how I would plan the flower garden. "Kent Jr. shall have a garden of his own, too." I thought musingly to m self. I tried to put all foolish worries and unpleasant thoughts out of my uiind and think only of the o.iful days that were to come. i pianneu now i wouin rase .aney with me and then, with a nian to tend the furnace and work around the yard, we could pet along splendidly.

When the lawyer writes, "hereto I set my hand and seal," he refers to the ancient custom, as old as Egypt, of sealing documents with the print of the thumb.
