ADDRESS MADE BY
GREEK MINISTER
WHAT HE SAID AT LAYING OF
EPISCOPAL CORNERSTONE
LAST SUNDAY.

On the occasion of the laying Of the
cornerstone for the new ST. Marks
church on last Sabbath morning, one
of the interesting features of the
event was the address of Rev. Father
Davis Of Savannah, who is at the head
of the Greek church OF thai city. The
address in full was as follows:
Dear Countrymen: Today ON in
Jesus Christ brother Episc opalians
hold services for the laying OF the
cornerstone of this church. To this
service have the honor to BE- pres.
ent myself, invited by my dear ls.v
erend brother in Christ, Father Roy
kin. whose love and respect to the
Greek Orthodox church has con tuced
to the mutual love of all the Greeks
who know him.
This honor offered me belongs not
only to me, dear countrymen, but 70
you all too, living and dealing with
these noble American people to whom
you are very much indebtef. Fts
this reason you have a duty to he
law abiding and honest. In the mean
time to love your adopted country
America and if necessary to shed
your blood for its grandeur and glorl,
as her noble sons at our holy war n
1921 for our independence shed their
blood and offered great material ser
vice to the cause. But even today the
Greek race has its admirers in this
civilized country who protest every
day for our ignored national rights.
Yes, there are many both the clergy
and the press, who protest against
the cruelty to European diplomacy,
keeping yet under Turkish suzeranity
the martyrs of the Mediterranean sea,
the island of Crete, and not agreeing
to give the liberty for which rivers of
blood We're shed. For all these great
benefits which were and are offered
to the Greek race by these noble sons
of America We owe, every one of us
to be very grateful to them and prove
it by words and facts, because ingrat-
itude Is the worst of social crimes.
You must attend church and especial
ly here, the Episcopal church with
which church We are in very near
and brotherly ties and which in the
near future will be united, God will
ing, with the Eastern Orthodox church
under the one and same Shepherd, our
Lord Jesus Christ.
We hope our beloved sons, in Jesus
Christ, that these fatherly words will
find place in your hearts, the fulfill
ment of which ask from all Of you,
Amen.

The irrigation enterprise that is

The irrigation enterprise that is
being pushed near Weston has not
gotten to the dirt flying point yet, but
it will. says the Portland Labor Press.
The enhanced price of land will more
than pay for the cost of construction.
Umatilla county is composed OF lot
of enormous ranches and few small
farms. Anything that reverses this
order will increase the population.
The irrigated sections do not increase
in population as they should because
of the land speculator; but whenever
we have learned what other civilized
peoples are learning. that the holder
of idle lands performs no service to
anybody and we accordingly tax him
into being useful citizen or letting
some other useful citizen use the idle
land. such enterprises as Weston irri-
cation project will attract many thou
sands to Oregon.
