Mr. Ilawn on "The Soul of Things."
Mr. Ilawn has been advertised for
several days past as an orator of su
perlalive merit with a message that
was eertain to strike a responsive
ehord in the soul of all who heard
him. In iustiee to the speaker, and
to Ihe eampaiiin offieials who were
instrumental in Ijrinirinir liim to Med
ford. it may be said without the
slightest, fear of eontradietion that
rone was disappointed. Few speak-
rs possess the masterful eloipienee
and iiiauiiifieent delivery of Mr.
Ilawn. He soared upon the ivintis of
oratorv to di..v heiLrhts pieturinir the
sublime in a masterful manner, and
punetuntin his address ever and
i lion with rieh wittieism and irresis
tible humorous remarks and niniee
dotes, vet mil to the extent of depre-
eiatitiir the real value of his iiiessaue.
.Mr. Ilawn pietareil the human soul
as llle inosl lolielv and desolate thile:
known to humankind, lie said that
every human soul lives on an insular
possession alone and to itself.
An Awe of System
The pnwnl au'e be said is one in
v.hieh evervtbintr is svsteniatienllv
mapped out and diat.rramed, yet he
asked who has ever taken tho trouble
lo draw a diaurain of the piefure oi
life,- the most trauie pieture the
iiiiml of man or (iod an eoneeive,
so utterly alone is the human soul.
He compared the situation to the
spider spiuuimr her trossimer web,
til roivinir out Ihe cables from with
in and attaehiiiir them to the differ
ent bridges which must hold the com
pleted web in place. In human life,
he said, the cables of heart knowl
edire are the alphabet of all external
thiiiLTs. The bridge we need most iti
connectinir our cables from the soul
is love, he said: not the mushy, senti
mental sort of love, but the higher
and noble sympathy and concern in
oar fcllow-imin.
The Colly of War
The speaker pictured the human in
fant as the most helpless of all living
creatures. A chick two hours old is
capable of cettinir up and scratchim:
for its liviui:; yet a babe with food.
by its side beinir unable to Iced itself
would starve unless assisted. The
entire irauiut of life beinir one con
tinuous conflict against the disease
and Lrerms hurled imninst mankind
by nature, he marveled how any one
would dare to fitilit- his fellow-man,
when all so need the love and kindly
consideration of the other
No community, the speaker saii
could he prosperous unless it is hai
py, and the Chamber of Commerce is
really a Chamber of Citizenship in
which all should join and work for
the uplift and betterment of the com
munity. He impressed upon those
present that the Medford Chamber of
Commerce is fortunate in enjovim.' the
sympathetic co-operation of the
women, because thev are needed in
all civic iindertakiui.'s and develop

i ae nr-i speaker ot tiie evening
was deonte A. .Maiislield, who mive
the impressions of a comparatively
new-comer on the possibilities ami
attractiveness of Medford and vicin
ity. Mr. Man-field said that he wa
of the iinprcss'on that men coming
here from a distance see advantages
here that, porhnpi, the native resi
dents overlook. With the natural ad
vantages with which nature has en
dowed Orcirnn, the splendid climate,
the abundance of pare water, there
is no reason why the development
should not be rapid and extensive. He
said that be did not know of another
valley in America where men can pro
cure the comforts of life with which
nature has blessed this section of the
country, yet he otiestioiied the fact
that the residents of this locality
have taken full advantage of these
opportunities. He urtred the citizens
of Medford and .laeksoa county to
line up with the Chamber of Com
merce, rfind .all pull together for the
L'eneral uplift and betteVment of
this section.
