1
Will Ask Commercial Club
for Card Permitting Can
vassing City
Within a week or 10 days, Salem will
have a muncipal bathing beach in ev
ery respect superior to the one sponsor
ed last year by the Commercial club
at Minto island. Not only are the
grounds for the bench better adapted
for bathing, but this year there will be
ample provision for the en re of cloth
ing nnd bathing houses with responsible
parties in charge.
This information is given by the com
mittee from the civic department of the
Commercial club, consisting of Dr. W.
H. Byrd, chairmnn; L. H. McMuhon,
Fred K. Mnngis, H. O. White, F. B.
Southwick, director of the civic depart
ment, and Ivan G. McDauiel, manager
of the Commercial club.
Between tho two bridges on the Polk
county side is a 20 acre trnct with a
mnily bench that will be cleaned up nnd
made into ideal picnic grounds. All
dead branches nnd shrubbery will be re
moved, sand will be brought for tho
children's, playgrounds, and everything
dono to iniike it nn ideal park and bath
ing beach for the city.
Mayor White was appointed a com
mittee of one to secure from Polk coun
ty the right to erect steps from the west
end of the bridge and to confer with
the ruilroad to secure the right to con
struct a rond over part of its property
to tho bench. Pinkcy Bros, have already
given the committee the privilege of
crossing their land. !
Arrange for Autos. j
For the parking of automobiles, ample
provisions will be made nnd the road
Iciidiiig to the bench will be graded and
put in shape for travel.
Dressing rooms will bo constructed
for men and for women and also for
boys and girls, with n regular check
ing system for the ufoty of clothing
and vnluubles. For the children, besides
snnd piles, swings will be placed in the

send dredges to level high places along
tne bench mid plnce gund on the
shore.
Work on clearing the park will begin
next Friday afternoon and the commit
tee in charge, Ivan . McDnniel and
Fred Mungis, would like to hear from
the young men and others who will as
sist Friday afternoon in clearing the
ground.
For children, there will be no charge
whatever. For the grown-ups, iu order
to secure a revenue , to pay those in
charge of tho park, there will be a
charge of five cents. Arrangements will
also be made for a launch to carry pas
sengers across tho river at five cents
per carry.
The committee hopes to have every
thing in shape within a week or no and
present to the people of Salem a bathing
beach and picnic park superior in ev
ery respect to the bench of Inst year,
The mercantile department of the
Commercial club at the regular monthly
meeting this evening, will be urged to
grant a cord giving the privilege of
soliciting to F. B. Wedel, who is here
endeavoring to interest the citizens of
Salem in the erection of a deaconess
hospital under the direction and aus
pices of the Mcuonite church.
At a meeting several months ago of
the Commercial clnB, endorcment was
given Mr. Wedel. Later he wns refused
the privilege of soliciting funds in the
city by the Mercantile department.
Mr. Wedel was instrumental in estab
lishing the deaconess hospital eight
years ago at Xewton, Kansas, and nr
present they have more than $100,000
invested in that city in buildings and
property. Three and a half years ago
he went to American Falls, Idaho, and
through the assistance and encourage
ment given, erected buildings to the
value of $25,000 and established a hos
pital that last year accommodated 422
patients.
On account of the number of Men
unites in the valley, Mr, Wedel is fa
vorably disposed towards Salem. He
comes with recommendations from the
lending medicul authorities of Idaho
and a personal letter from a judge of
the Idaho supreme court.
The proposition to come up before the
Mercantile department of the Coinemr
cinl club tonight is whether Mr. Wedel
will be given a card permitting him to
solicit subscriptions. The petition ask
ing a favornble consideration of the
plans of Mr. Wedel, to be presented to
the Mercantile department this evening
is signed by Drs. Robinson and Morse,
Dr. F. H. Thompson and a number of
prominent citizens who believe a hos
pital bringing Menonites to this country
would be of advantage to Salem. Joseph
H. Albert, president of the Commercial
club, is also strongly in favor of giv
ing Mr. Wedel all possible assistance.
It is probable that if Mr. Wedel is
turned down by the Mercantile depart
ment tonight, he will make no further
effort to establish a hospital in Sa
lem.

NOT WELL ATTENDED
Autos and Good Weather
with Belief Congress Would
Provide the Cause
Salem patriotism has been shown in
many practical ways, but last evening
the good citizens of the city were not
in a mood for a mass meeting and as
a result what should have been a crowd
taxing the seating capacity of the arm
ory, resulted iu the attendance of pos
sioly 150.
In his opening address, Justice Bur
nett as chairman of the meeting, said
that the boys at the front were experi
encing hard work and that it was the
duty of those at home to back them up
and to also see that those depending on
the soldier boys should not suffer.
Lieutenant Is'iemeyer iu an interesting
talk related that from his experience
04 a soldier in the British army, the
boys not only needed a change from the
regulation army rations, but that while
sending clothing and comforts, it might
be a good plan to just send along some
vermicide as insects of all kinds were
sure to be troublesome.
The Rev. Harry E. Marshall was rath
er disappointed that the wave of pa
triotism was no -stronger, judging by
the size of the audience. He put the
proposition strongly claiming that this
nation within the next 10 years would
be called on to do what it had never
done before and that within a few
years, there would of necessity be a
change for the good in a greater pa
triotism nnd a willingness that this
country should bear its burden as one
of the progressive nations of the earth.
Woodburn Raised 11,200.
Rev. James Elvin was of the opinion
there was need of great patriotism, es
pecially ng ninny families dependent
on those at the front, were in actual
distress. He also referred to Wood
burn's generosity in raising a fund of
$1,200 for her soldiers.
While the mass meeting was a disap
pointment to some extent, the statement
that individuals had come to the front
offeriug to help during the absence of
Company M brought out the fact thnt
the patriotic feeling was not entirely
dead.
Cards were passed through the audi
ence by which the opportunity was giv
en to pledge certain amounts each
month.
The small attendance and lack of In
terest in the mass meeting was duo to
several causes. The weather was per
fect for automobile riding, the impres
sion that congress would give $.r0 a
City Market Ice &
L..
Distilled Water Ice

of ice greatly. Jf you are not getting your ice at reduced rates scO

mouth to dependents of the soldiers, and
the thought that within a few months!
the boys would be home all served to I
prevent a genuine demonstration. 1
The program of the evening includ
ed singing by Mrs. Hallie Parish
Hinges whom Justice Burnett intro-;
duced as a woman we all love and who
has a boy at the front; a selection by
Tom Ordcmnn, orchestra pieces and the
singing of a patriotic song by George
Wilson of Medi'ord.
The Salem rifle club marched into the
hall in ranks of four, adding a touch of
the military spirit. The meeting last
evening was just the beginning of tho
efforts of the Patriotic league to make
life pleasant for the boys on the border
and in the effort to relieve those in
need in the city.

Tho stock market t in its general
