made famous in the telling.
Gentlemen Of the Rotary Club, it
is my purpose today to give a brief
sketch OF Lincoln's life and t. call
attention briefly to two outstanding
characteristics which made him great.
He was not born to a life of luxury
as you all know. Borne Of humble
~parentage in the rough and rugged
frontier environment, he had 10
struggle with life from the beginning
Only a few books were available
but these he read over and over IN
til they became a part Of his life.
They included the Bible, Robinson
Crusoe, the Pilgrims Progress, and
History of the United States. The
biographies of Washington, Shakes
peare, Burns and the lives Of Henry
Clay and b. Franklin. A choice, Ii
brary if a limited one. .
During all the time of his young
err life he was making friends and
his course onward and upward pro-
crossed steadily until at last he
reached the presidents chair at the
White House.
HE was the sum of Puritan and
Cavalier, for in his ardent nature
were fused the virtues of both, and in
the depths of his great soul the
faults of both were lost. He was
greater than Puritan-greater than
Cavalier, in that he was American
and that in his honest form were first
gathered the vast and thrilling forces
of his ideal government. His was
a life consecrated from the cradle of
Human Liberty. My friends, it
seems to me that we can today profit
much by applying the sterling quail
tiles possessed by this typical Amer
lean. If America is lot to lose her
glory, if she is not to lose individual
ity and strength eXemplified so well
by her f~orefathers, the younger gen.
GRAFTON must begin at once to de-
velop and apply that quality which
distinguished Lincoln the quality
OF initiative.
Some time ago a beautiful statue
hand of st. Gaudens, was unveiled
in Parliament Square, England.
Lloyd George, who vas then British
Premier, spoke on this occasion and
commented on the act that Lincoln
was so great that he was universally
recognized and loved in all the coun-
tries of the earth.
Il doubt whether any statesman
who ever lived sank so deeply into
the hearts of the people of many
lands as Abraham Lincoln did. l
am not sure that you in America
realize the extent to which he is also

courage, %fortitude, patience, human
ity. clemency-his trust in the peo-
ple-his faith in Democracy and may

he gave expression to those attri-
butes. will stand out forever as bea-
cons to guide troubled nations and
their ~perpleXed leaders. Resolute in
he was moderate in victory.
Misrepresented, misunderstood, I'M

last. But the people believed in him

Kina Boris Plight

HAVING sown the wind the Bulgarian
L government is now reaping the tor
nado. Red terror stalks thru the streets
of Sofia, bombs are crashing and reyo-
luton is under way.
Bulgaria is made up 80 per cent of
farmers There is sprinkling of indus
trial workers-perhaps , or per cent
while the other handful form the upper
crust, the military aristocracy.
Up to "A year and half ago repre-
sentative of the 80 per cent was in power.
Premier Stambulsky was big. bull-like
peasant of fellow, who, after his own
fashion, followed the theory of Abe Lin
coin that n government should be of, by
and for the people.
With better intent than tact he frankly
told King Boris TO observe the rule laid
down for all good boys and be seen and
not heard. And he told the world and
Sundry that. while Boris might play king
if he liked, he, Stambulisky, would rule.
II was not without relief, il may be
imagined that King Boris saw his own
set come back in power BY wel-Iaid
plot the military seized the government
of Sofia while Stambulisky was in another
part of the country, then surrounded his
house and put him to death.
Since then the handful have ruled the
many. They did ii only because they had
the army on their side. In fact, they were
the army plus the aristocratic civilians.
Every attempt of the peasant majority to
regain power was merciessly put down as
Il Communist uprising"
There are few bolshevists and commun-
lists in Bulgaria, or anywhere in the Bal
kanS. There are few, of course, for the
situation naturally breeds them. And what
few there are are no doubt extremists.
The trouble in Bulgaria may be the sig
nal for other revolts in the Balkans. Jugo-
slavia, to mention just one other nation,
has a similar situation within her borders.
Croatiaus, Slavonians. Dalmatians and
Moslem minorities really constitute ma
iority there whose aims at autonomy are
frustrated only by trickery and militarist
terror at Belgrade.
The war which did not make the world
safe for democracy did particularly poor
job for the Balkans.

oGLad Slips" and "Sad Slips1

Qtttu bttpo uitU DUlt bttbS
THE double-barreed plan of issuing
i traffic slips, now being considered
BY the police traffic department here,
should be of material assistance in aiding
Seattle's tangled traffic problem.
When the idea was suggested by The
Star, it was simply rs temporary plan,
to make the police realize that the big ma
iority of auto drivers ARE careful and
DO pay heed TO the traffic regulations,
So successful has the plan been during
the past week that officials are justified
in making il permanent.
Briefly, the idea is this; When traf-
fic policeman sees driver who goes out
of his way to observe the traffic regua-
tions, he hands the man traffic slip
a glad slip" A duplicate of this is
turned in at headquarters, and becomes
part of that drivers police record
If the same driver ever is given regu-
lar traffic slip-a sad slip"-his record
at Central station is checked up and any
''glad slips" recorded on il will apply
against the sad slip he gets,
This thing of paying a man for being
good sometimes has a miraculous effect
in world where it's customary to jump
on man when he makes mistake and
10 accept good work as matter of course
We've never run across a man yet who
didn't respond to pat on the back and
