strangers are to be found in the con­
gregations at the White Temple everv
Sunday. Let us continue this kind o.
woik. Write a personal letter to your
friends in the East. Tell them of the
almost limitless wealth our State has in
its timber and mines, wheat and hay,
cattl^ raisin g and fruit growing, and
various farm products. Show them the
advantages of our climate, describe to
them the beauties of our scenery, urge
them to take advantage of the colonist
rates in effect from September 1st to
October 31st from all points in the
East. Get them to visit Oregon and
|! see for themselves.
I heard the other day of a young
; Quaker who wrote back to his father,
telling him of the wonderful size of the
| berries and farm products in this coun­
try. He told him that the bark of the
Sequoia Gigantica tree was 24 inches
thick. The old father wrote to him
and said, 'My son, I regret that thee
hath rallen into the habit of lying along,
with other Westerners. You know the
bark of no tree could be so thick.’
The son, upon receipt of this letter,
went and got a large trunk of bark 26
inches thick. He expressed it to his
father in Pennsylvania, C. O. D. It
cost the old man $14 to get it out of
the express office, and when he looked
it over, he sat down and wrote: ‘My
son John: Thee need not prove thy
statements any more. It is too expen­
sive. We will take thee at thy word.’
Let us not be afraid of exaggerating
the advantages of our State. Let us
tell the truth, and let us invite in this
personal way our friends to come to
Oregon. It will fill up our State with
the very best class of people, and give
unto us citizens who love to live under
Christian influences and believe in
good government.”
