Citizens must pay the licenses and the tax, loads good cr r ...ads Lad. Why then you ask, do we bond our selves for 0 millions of dollars? The answer is simple indeed. Wo need good roads now. The moneys are provided for, but not at once available. Are we mortgag ing the future? Not on your life. We are providing for our present pressing needs; namely, good roads and an or ganized, not a proiuisejious good roads program. During the past 20 years we have frittered aw'ay more than a score of millions of dollars, groping in the dark in our vain attempt to construct permanent roads in Oregon.

Dr. Steevea presented more in detail the claims of Willamette. He gave a brief outline of the history of the in stitution. For Willamette to grow tne trustees, faculty and friends must all co-operate. It is "the most important activity of Methodism on the Pacific coast and it is a poor Methodist who docs not wish to see Willamette Uni versity grow." Dr. .Sleeves also present ed the needs of tho university. They are: increased endowment, a new girls dormitory, and more students. He clos ed by stating that next year's fresh man class should be the largest in the history of the institution. one somewhere. Let me ask the voter two questions First.
