Commercial Club Spirit of "
Improvement -Maaf I est.
SALEM, April 17. President Henry B.
Thtelsen, of the Greater Salem Commer
cial Club, today announced the appoint
ment of the following delegates to the

Every secret .aociety, church and other
social organization has been requested to
appoint 10 delegates to participate in the
organization of a Civic Improvement
League. The Salem Women's Club at its
last meeting considered the advisability
of a movement of this kind, and expressed
Itself as favoring the Idea, and offering
to co-operate with other bodies in form
ing an Improvement league. The matter
was brought to the attention of the -Commercial
Club last evening by Gideon
Stoltz. who Introduced a resolution em
bodying the plan of organization which
was followed out.
CItizcns,of Salem have taken no small
Interest In the work that has been done
X. X. Edrrards.
by the Civic Improvement Club qf
Portland, and U Is the Intention that
similar work shall be undertaken here.
The suggestion of F. V. Hoiman that
residents of Portland beautify their homes
by planting rosebushes has received much
favorable comment In Salem, and there is
a disposition on the part of many to make
this city alsp a rose city.
The spirit of Improvement is everywhere
manifest. Not only are owners of busi
ness blocks making changes, with a view
to modernizing their buildings, but resi
dence property Is receiving attention. Old
sidewalks are being replaced with new,
cement being used in many instances. Old
houses are being renovated, front yards
are made more beautiful by the removal
or trimming of unsightly shrubbery, and
back yards are helng transformed Into
flower gardens. The people of Salem have
always taken pride irr the neatness of
their home surroundings, but during the
hard times many were unable to keep"
their property ip the usual good condi
tion. Now that more prosperous times
have come, all are disposed to work to
gether In an effort to make Salem known
for the beauty of Its streets and its
homes.
G. M. Hyland, of Portland, who has been
prominent in civic Improvement work, has
been Invited to visit Salem, and assist in
the organization of the league.

claims are done away with. The charter
is to be rescinded, and a new charter is
to be granted from which the objections
