ed as Father and Son week and |
am indeed glad TO commend the
idea to the hearty support OF the
patriotic people OF Oregon.
Oregon has thus far furnished
10000 OF the flower of It's young
manhood to the service OF our coun-
try In the worlds great cataclysm.
Just as these noble boys who have
already shouldered solem RESPONSE
bilities for this nation and for the
world are entitled to our constant
thought and prayer, so their younger
brothers at home deserve the fullest
possible measure Of parental en-
couragement and counsel. II Is
through the hearts OF our young peo-
pie that the fervent spirit OF loyalty
to our country and devotion to our
flag Is to be communicated to pos
terity.
Never In all history have the
young men been called upon Tor
such important work and never have
indications been surer that the
young men Of today are to be ac-
corded tremendous opportunities as
they grow into manhood. There
fore urge the adult men of Ore
gon to call their boys and the boys
from other homes to their firesides
and there impress upon them an ap-
probation Of their responsibilities,
and tell them In friendly way how
deeply we are interested in them and
how much we are depending upon
their mental, moral and physical H.
ber. Fathers OF Oregon, ask your
boys to study the life of the immor-
lal Abraham Lincoln. whose birth
lay is to be observed on the second
lay OF Father and Son week, and
.ry to inspire them to pattern their
ives after his example,"

This bill has already been favorably
