PAGE TEN. THE DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1919. 3 SCOUT JUBILEE HERE SATURDAY IS DIG SUCCESS Beventy-five husky, ' enthusiastic Boy Scouts gathered at the Presbyter Ian church Saturday evening (or one of the best jubilees ever held by the or ganisation. Pie eating contests, tests of brawn, and many other entertaining features, including a clever "carnival" taideshowa 'n everything made the evening a pleasure for all. , ' Several business men, guests of the Scouts, were present The mysterious proceedings of initiation of the Nights of the Wash Tub, or any other Bimllar affiliation, would, never be like the re ception to these guests. After enter ing the floor of the church each "vic tim" was roughly grabbed and thrust about in the dark. Then he was bid den to follow a rope which led him over tables, into "autos" and against ghastly forms probably a corpse as, from the dark, many hands clutched his feet or propelled him with force onto a table, against a post or wall ' Five troops of the Boy Scouts were represented at the Jubilee. So many ooys were on hand that it was difficult to find adequate room for the carnival, and it is probable that an effort will be made to get the armory for any louowing parties. . The entertainment was arranged by xiaroia uook, scout executive. . A campaign for ''every hoy a scout1 M now being conducted in Salem. Those who have had occasion to see the good work that is being carried on in the movement express the belief that the desired number of "recruits" W1I tie received by the first of the year Work Of Replacing Street Lights Is Commenced Today Work of changing the old type mag netite street lamps to the modern 400 candlepower incandescent lamps, re quired under the terms of the new contract with the P. R. L. & P. corn pan, was begun here today by crews of the light company. Seventy of the lamps will be changed as quickly as the work can be done. Most of the magnetite lamps are confined to South Salem. Hallowe'en nights, with its witches, cats and mischievous lads, held no ter ror for the light company this time. Atlhough three autos of the company patrolled the streets about all night only about 12 light were found to have been tampered with by pranksters.

TAX LIMITATION BILL TO BE FILED AT ONCE The petition increasing the limita tion of the state indebtedness for oad purposes from two to six mills will probably be filed with the secre tary of state's office, Tuesday or Wed nesday, according to James Stewart of Corvallls, who was in Salem this morning on his way to Portland where he will sit in on the regular monthly meeting of the state highway com mission, Tuesday. Stewart is recogniz ed as Oregon's most ardent good roads enthusiast and is ambitious that the state shall not lag behind in the matter of highway improvement hence his proposal to increase the bond limitation. "My proposition will not increase the direct taxation of the state one cent," declared Stewart, Who explains that the increased bonded indebted ness under his proposed increase in the limitation would be taken care of by addition fees and licenses to be paid by those who make use of the roads and who are for the most part willing and ready to pay for highway improvements.
