All members Of the former vice pres

The distinction of birth in a log
cabin, which illustrious Americans Of
an earlier day commonly had, was also
that of former Vice President Fair

last of American statesmen to have
been born in one of these humble
cabins.
The one where he was born on May

A. G. Clark, manager of the Home
Industry league, was speaker before
the State Jewellers convention in Sa'
lem today. he said in part:
The fastest moving dollar in the
world is the money received by workers.
From pay day to pay day most of the
money is returned to circulation and all
lines of business and professions receive
L benefit direct or indirect.
No one controls the spending of pay
roll money except the persons to whom
it is paid.
Therefore, some of the responsibility
for bigger payrolls rests upon every In
dividual on every Oregon payroll.
1t is part of the concern of each per-
son on a pay roll to help support the
people ON other payrolls, by demanding
the products made by the factory EN-
plcying them. If the influence of every
worker is thrown to an Oregon pro-
duct, 1t has the effect of keeping mors
people engaged in more production.
'Out of every dollar spent for an
article made out of the state, at least
70 cents goes away, never to return,
hnt is used to maintain people on pay
roil in some distant state. 1t is clearly

buying home products. Your first con-

supplies and it is your patriotic duty to
help all you can, buying home products
or at points nearest to production,

"We give willingly and literally to
Uncle Sam, and some of that loyalty
we owe to our home town and state. If
each person did their best, the effect
would be Immediately noticeable. Sure
