SEE SPIRITUAL REVIVAL

"A strong spiritual revival is to be
seen in the words and deeds of the
head and heads of our Government and
its bureaus; the spirit OF the church
has returned to our national capital.
Therefore it is more than merely fitting
that Washington should have mingled
with its renascent spirituality and it's
magnifcence of architecture cathedral
that will portray in stone the deep re-
ligious feeling that is the foundation of
our Government and the people who
made it,"
That was the crux OF what the Rev.
Dr. James +. Freeman, rector of the
Church of the Epiphany, Washington,
ID. c., had TO say yesterday in Town
Hall before the New York committee of
the National Cathedral Association at
its first public meeting. He and Henry
White, former Ambassador 10 Italy and
France, sroke of the proposed cathedral
and the plans of financing II. 1t is to
be built on Mount st. Alban. a COM
manding emincnce 400 feet above the
capital. 1t is estimated that it will
cost s1o.0o0.Oo
Mr.. White told something of the his
tory of the project and the progress of
the actual building. He declared that
the inspiration came to Protestant Epis-
copal churchmen in Washington twenty
two years ago. Thus far only the
Bethlehem Chapel and the Apse have
been reared. but detached from the
cathedral proper there is the Little
Sanctuary, the Bishops House, the tenn
porary Bapistory. the Boys School and
the Girls School. In the immediate
future foundations for another portion
of the cathedral are to be laid.
Typifying Religious Life.
Both Mr.. White and the Rev. Or. Free
man uttered the call for 100000 mem
bers of the National Cathedral Associa-
tion at 81 year. That income, with
gifts such as Mrs. Harriet Lane-John-
son. Mrs. Phoebe Hearst and Mrs s. +.

U.s. Every year thousands upon
thousands of dollars are spent in Ore

ons why people should come here to

themselves to even levy upon their

ing funds through the Northwest Tour
ist Association. Well and good. But
Immediately the people of a great
state like Oregon turn about and put
themselves into the limelight and undo
all the good results sHch advertising
might have and heap odium upon the
state by using the popular referen-
dun" (this should be the unpopular
referendum to pass such laws as the
Compulsory School Bill.
1t is only few weeks since the last
election but already leading papers of
the country have ridiculed Oregon and
put disparagement upon people who
might come here.
The New York Times says:
IF the state ought ever to take this
step, it should be only when the exist
ence Of the private and parochial
schools threatens the efficiency main-
tenance of the public schools. The
remedy is not the abolition of private

into all such schools Of the spirit and

North Bank Road Activity Due

Activity of a magnitude of that or
the Columbia River Highway several
years ago will probably be noted or
the North Bank Highway in Skamanis
and Klickitat counties the coming
year. Indeed, crews are already en-
gagged in grading a unit of the Wash
ington highway from Underwood to
Lyle, Wash. And indications are that
another contract will be let soon for a
stretch of the road in Skamania county
between Greenleaf and Government
Slide. Formalities for securing the
right of way for this unit have been
initiated.
1t is estimated that the Skamania
