General Spirit of Optimism

No week passes in the Fallon oil

of them entirely worthy of chrono-

hard enough to tell the outside

Portal On
Boundary
Dedicated
President Writes That
u n ( o r titled 5000
Miles Is Best Monu-
nent to Growth

Washington, Sept. 3.--An unof-
ficial boundary line more thar
5000 miles long between the Uni
ted States and Canada Is the best
testimony that the world grows
wiser and better, President Hard
ing said in letter today to be
read at the dedication of a peace
portal near Blaine, Wash, in m
memoration of more than cen
tury of uninterrupted peace be-
tween America and Great Britain.
The portal, to be dedicated sep
tember 6, on the International line
was conceived by Samuel Hill Of
Seattle. In recognition Of the sig
nificance of the occasion the presi-
dent wrote Mr.. Hill as follows:
"The ancient Romans erected a
temple to Janus, a dispenser Of
peace and war, and ordered that
its gates should never be closed
while the nation was ct war. In
seven centuries they are said to
have been ,losed but three times.
You have erected a temple OF
peace, whose gates are never toI
be closed save in war. Already 1t
stands for more than a century Of
unbroken peace between Britain
and America and we all join in the
hope that in coming II es 1t may
commemorate an era Of peace
much longer than the period Of
war for which the temple CT Janus
stood.
"0ur century and more of peace
with the British empire, our rela-
tions Of unbroken amity with Can
ada, the fact that a boundary line
over 1900 miles long remains un.
fortified--these are the testimon-
ials that the world grows wiser
and better. All mankind looks TO
this example, yearns to follow it,
and we are justified to believe
that a time is at hand when 1t may
take long step in that direction.
On the occasion of dedication of
the Pacific peace portal, ! wish to
convey to you personally my high
appreciation OF your patriotic SER
vice In providing a symbolic shrine
to international peace and in do
ing 80 / would also thank the Pa
cific Highway association (the
builder of the portal) for the fine
cooperation 1t has rendered"
