PAGE EIGHT. . SALEM, OREGON Tuesday, October 21, 1919. SEU-ESTE01 HELD" BASIS OF SUCCESS BY Relative Increase In Costs And Wages Shown In Report '. Ira Landrlth, former candidate for the vice-presidency on the prohibition ticket, was a speaker at Monday morn ing's chapel service at Willamette uni versity. . Few speakers in the nine months' term get the hearing that the noted "Prohi" got in his shot lecture An "Increased Belt-Esteem." After ten Ininutes of light and entertaining dis cussion of the dude and "dudette," of the sham college folk of the day,' he turned to the serious side of his thought and for five minutes of earn est eloquence plead for the doctrine of Increased self-esteem. "The doctrine of Increased self-estem Is much needed In this twentieth century," he said, "and we have come to the place where we must part company with a lot of superficial ideas in way of thinking and living. "We are Ood's man and God's woman, and we have a man's and a woman's work to do in the World," he further asserted. . In setting forth the realization of this goal the accomplishment of a man's work in the world the lecturer left a standard cry in four words: pur pose, purity, preparation and persist nee. A man never arrives anywhere except through purpose and without purity of thought and character pur pose is soon lost, he stated. He em' phaslzed the importance of thorough preparation, Including , therein the Deed of college training. Speaking of persistency, he said that purpose, pur. My. preparation and the goal of life Itself, were of no effect without the ver-present element of persistency to fight to the point of attainment With this point and in relation thereto, the Speaker quoted a popular motto of Theodore Roosevelt in conclusion: "When I see a thing is true, I'll put It through."
