MOTORINQ ALL THE YEAR
"Oretoniens motor all the year"
It the slogan the autoraobllists of
Portland ar. Oiag to m In attract-
log attention to Oregon aa a district
evallal)!. for winter touring. That
founds good, and smells of budding
leaf and tursting bloom.
Yae,Oregoaiena motor all th year.
Hero at Orants Paso there U ni sea
son when the auto la put away In
cold storage. The tame holds good
In many Other localities of the state.
But to start out on pleasure Jaunt
that will carry one through the snow
drifts of eastern Oregon or In the
mud of portions of western Oregon
"all the rear" might be a bit unusual.
To the eastern reader Oregon means
simply Oregon.
Oregonlana also swim all the year.
If yon do not believe It look at the
lovely forms depleted In the Port
land dailies of fair damsels and man
ly youths just from a "Xmas day
plunge In the Willamette." When you
start year friends out on that plea
sure trip by auto around Mount Hood,
hare them also take their one-piece
bathing autt along, for "Oregonians
go swimming all the year." And
then they may be Interested In a New
Year swim in Crater lake after hav
ing tried the Willamette on Xmas
day and come up smiling as sweetly
as the ladies pictured in the Sunday
Oregoama. ;.
THE NEWSPAPER BUSINESS
t Prof. Eric W. AUen used to make
a good Hvtng in the newspaper bus
iness. The adjective shows where
Eric was Unusual entitled to
"special mention." But now he is
trying to make a "journalist" of any
young Oregonlan who thinks he
would Ilk to court fame and the
possibility of an early and violent
taking off, the state paying Mr.
Allen a round salary as bead of the
department at the university at Eu
gene. So Prof. Allen has viewed the
business from tooth sides of the pal
lug, once when it was necessary to
produce a livelihood, and now when
he can allow his hobbles to have full
play. As a result, the opinions which
Mr. Allen expresses upon the bus
iness or making a newspaper are
unique and valuable and mostly true
The following is one of the thoughts
which he expressed when speaking
before a convention at Missoula,
Mont, last week:
"Journalism has the highest ethics
and the hardest to live up to of any
of the professions. The newspaper
man trying to do right gets little sym
pathy and no understanding outside
of his own profession. The other
powers that make for righteousness
are often found with perfectly clear
consciences but imperfect knowledge
urging him to do what he atone
knows would be wrong. 'Pitiless pub
llclty' is more popular in theory than
in practice. I dare say that there is
scarcely a prominent clergyman, ed
ucator, or political reformer In the
land who has not at some time tried
to divert some newspaper from that
even-handed justice which Is our
Ideal. And the paper Is then excori
ated tor 'attacking' the church, the
college, or the reform movement,
i "The newspaper of the future, the
newapaper we are working toward,
will be financially strong, 'paying
good wages and high salaries, and
maintaining Its Independence; strong
In Hfl news, telling the truth with
out fear or favor; strong in its lead
ership, working for the economic and
spiritual welfare of the common man
and boldly standing up against the
forces that would demoralise his
mind or exploit the products of his
labor."
