Hi" Scottish Rite Reunion Was A Most Successful Affair Nearly Every County of Oregon Was Represented at Gathering; Oonf erring ot Uegrees Important feature ot the uath i ering in Portland. - The thirty-ninth semi-annual reunion 'of the Scottish Rite Masons of the '"Valley of Portland," Oregon, con cluded Saturday evenlngr, was one of the most successful known in Ms his tory. A -Victory Class of 167 new members was graduated in the thlrty fecbnd degree. The members of this class represented nearly every county in Oregon, and several different states. The reunion began Wednesday morn !Ing with the conferring of the fourth "degree of "secret master," and con tinued until Friday afternoon, when the thirty-second degree, '"master of :the rfcyal secret," waa given. ' The thirty-third degree is confined to but a lew and is never given except for distinguished or faithful service. In the United States there are two jurisdictions of the Scottish Rite Ma sons, working in harmony. Oregon 'belongs to the southern jurisdiction, -of which George F. Moore, of "Wash ington. U. C. is grand commander. This supreme council is represented in each "valley" by one thirty-third de gree member. In Oregon the represen tative is Philip' S.

Drink Hot Water If You Desire a Rosy Complexion Says we can't help but look better and feel better after an Inside bath. To look one's best and feel one's beat is to enjoy an inside bath each morn ing to flush from the system the pre vious day's waste," sour 'fermentations and poisonous toxins before it is ab sorbed into the blood. Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken each day leave in the ali mentary organs a certain amount of indigestible material, which if not eliminated, form toxins ' artd poisons which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are In tended to suck in only nourishment to sustain the body. If you want to see the glow of healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see your skin get clearer and clearer, you are told to drink every morning upon arising, a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it. which is a harmless means of wash ing the waste material and toxins from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, before putting more food into the stom ach. ' Men and women with sallow skins, liver spotsi pimples or . pallid com plexion, are those who wake up with a coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath, others who are bothered with headaches, bilious spells, acid stomach or constipaUon should begin this phos phated hot water drinking. A quarter pound of, limestone phos phate costs very little at the drug store but ; Is sufficient to demonstrate that just as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies ajnd .freshens . the ; skin on the outside. Use - hot - water and limestone phosphate act on the Inside organs. Ad. Journal Readers Discuss Wide Variety of Subjects People Express Opinions on Matters of General Concern in Let ters Addressed to the Ed itor; Divers Views Are Pre sented on Affairs at Home and Abroad. The Foreign Language Problem Astoria. Jan. 11. To the Editor of The Journal Would it not be better to be gin at once the deportation of every "un-American" and foreigner who has refused to become a citizen and re fuses to speak the English language? Such people can never become good Americans, from the fact that they read their foreign papers, printed in their foreign language, listen to their sermons and pray and speak in their foreign tongue. It Is disgraceful as well as dis gusUng to go into a public place and not be able to hear a word of English spoken by any of the occupants.' This is quite a cWimon occurrence in many places. I think it would be well jf the large employers of labor would see to it that only the English language was spoken by their workmen while on duty. When the Tower of Babel was being erected, as the story goes, Jehovah heard of it and came down to see about it. He found it worse than he had expected. How did He stop it? Did He use ex plosives? Did He cause a great tornado, or an earthquake, to shake it to pieces? No. He said to the man on the wall. "Mortar is something else." To the man below, He said, "Brick has another name." And He' confounded' their lan guage in such a manner that when the man on the wall called for mud, the fellow below sent up rock or brick ; if he wanted a trowel, a stone hammer was sent up ; and so on, until the morale of the workmen was broken and the job abandoned. Hundreds of cases could be cited In recent times by different manufacturers and companies of very disastrous ac cidents as the result of workmen being unable to understand English. Compel them to speak it, or quit their job; by so doing it will compel them to have a more wholesome respect for our coun try and its institutions. I trust the Defense league will not disband for the next 10 years, but will continue the good work. We may see at the present time, now and then, some of the "un-Amerlcans" showing their teeth, since the war Is over. Now is the time to stop it- The returning sol diers. Red Cross and Defense league should join hands for this purpose. Every member of the Red Cross should see to it that no pro-German goods manufactured in this country or abroad are permitted to be handled by their dealer. NO. 362. Legislative Bolshevism PorUand, Jan. 14. To the Editor of The Journal Were the members of the last Oregon legislature Bolsheviki? No doubt many of them would be indignant at the mere suggestion of such a thing. However, if they were not, why did they pass a law to protect whlskers? And why did they pass that law just when Bolshevism was raising its ugly head in Russia? It is a matter of common knowledge that whiskers are a necessity only to the Bolsheviki. Either the mem bers were badly tinged with Bolshevism, or "they had It in" for the barbers. Possibly they determined ,to have re venge on the barbers of Salem. At any rate, they enacted a law making it a felony for any barber .to ply his trade with a razor within the state of Ore gon, and. lest any barber should escape by proving, as many of them might, that they were really not barbers, they made it a felony for any person to at tempt to use a razor in ' this state. Section 7, Laws 1917, provides : "Any person who attempts to use, or who with intent to use the same unlawfully against another, carries or possesses a dagger, dirk, dangerous knife, razor, stiletto, or any loaded pistol, revolver or other firearm, or any instrument or weapon Of the kind commonly known as a blackjack, slungshot. billy, sandclub, sandbag, metal knuckles, bomb or bomb shell, or any other dangerous or deadly weapon or instrument, is guilty of a felony." .The punishment may be 'by imprisonment In the penitentiary for not exceeding five years." It will thus be seen that any person who attempts to use a razor in this state is guilty .of a felony. Let the whiskers grow. J.: C J. Defends Tobaeco Portland, Jan. 6. To the Editor of The Journal. Some are agitating for prohibiUon of tobacco. What next? It seems some people delight in hatch ing up something to make others miser able. ToDacooy Ikruor,' and other "th! ngs along this line are the gi fta of nature and were :. created for man's benefit. ND, SUNDAY MORNING, Suppose we should prohibit the use of tobacco. It would make more sneaks, law-breakers and hypocrites than prohi bition of liquor has. Men would go behind woodpiles and into basements to sneak a smoke, and would substi tute other weeds for tobacco, the same as some use bay rum In place of whiskey. Tobacco does some people good, while it is harmful to others. If a man uses tobacco and it hurts him. he ought to have sense enough to quit it. Ac cording to prohibition logic, because it hurts some we should take it away from . all. When-our soldiers were in the trenches in Europe, they cried for tobacco and liquor. We can't kill what nature has created for mankind. Our great theologians have battled against our social evils for many centuries, and have made very little progress. It seems every fallacy has Jts day. How can we smoke the pipe of peace when they take our pipe' away? This article is not 'written to cast any re flections on war-time prohibition, but to show that prohibition laws will not kill the gifts of nature. EDWIN A. LINSCOTT. A Memorial Mountain PorUand. Jan. 11. To the Editor of The Journal I would suggest that we change the name of Mount Hood and name it in honor of our boys Jiame it Mount Liberty. The name itsell would be suggestive of. the great event. Human hands cannot erect a monument great enough, grand enough nor high enough. Only God could erect their monument. Mount Liberty is the most beautiful mountain on the American continent : God has given us his best ; our boys did their best; surely we will do our. best. Who is Mount Hood named after? Scarcely anyone in Oregon knows. The author of the book entiUed "The Guard ians of the Columbia" says that Lieu tenant Broughton of Vancouver's ex ploring expedition, in quest of new ter ritories for his majesty George IIL sail ing up the Columbia river- In October, 1792, named it in honor of Rear Admiral Samuel Hood of the British navy, who distinguished himself in naval battles during the American revolution. Thts will answer for the keynote for all other beautiful suggestions that have been made. We do not wish to disap point anyone, so let those who wish to build a highway go to it in the same spirit our boys did ; build a highway from Salem, the seat of government, to Portland, the metropolis, thence to Mount Liberty, with a "Liberty Circle" encircling the mountain at its base. Call it Liberty highway and make it a high way the like of which human eyes nev er gazed on before. Let those who wish to build a hospital go to it with as high ideals and pure motives as our soldiers did ; build It somewhere la view of the highway, and any doctor or nurse will know if they can make good in Liberty hospital their requtation will be estab lished. If the artist wants a hand in this great work, tell him to paint the best picture of Mount Liberty. J. J. OEDER. Fire and Police Consolidation Portland, Jan. 15. To the Editor of The Journal I submit a plan which would greatly reduce the expense of the Portland police and fire: departments. Policemen now work eight hour shifts and firemen work 10 and 14 hour shifts. Why not consolidate the two depart ments into one and stnork 12 hour shifts and all . police and firemen do both police and fire duty? Those ou outside patrol could do all . fire inspec tion; and prevention work, thereby re ducing the fire department about 20 per cent . Those on duty at fire staUons could be used as .reserve policemen and would do away with the reserve force now kepfc at police headquarters and re duce the police force 20 per cent. Fire stations would . be sub-police stations and would, be handy for the people, and the city would be protected at all times against loss of life and property. Fire stations could cover in and release each other automatically as they do now. In case of downtown fire companies go ing to fires, outside companies move up and take their places. Both fire and police headquarters could be at Second and Oak. where the police sta tion is now. Such a consolIdaUon would greaUy strengthen the efficiency of both police and fire bureaus and would re duce the cost of , operation of the:' two departments about $250,000 a. year. ;U . Ali city ordinances -could be enforced JANUARY 19, 1919. on patrol duty or from fire stations and firemen would have a chance to get away from the monotony of staying at station day in and day out. Shifts could alternate so they could be on duty at stations a few days, then go on patrol duty outside. There should be no ques tion as to the legality of such a plan of consolidation, as the supreme court has handed down the decision that fire men are fire officers same as policemen are police .officers. .LOYAL FIREMAN Lumber Mil! Wage Cuts Dallas, Jan. 11. To the Editor of The Journal I have read many of the let- ala oi you io give me people a cimnce to exchange thoughts through the col umns of your paper. I am very grateful to the L. L. L. L. committee of local No. 24, district No. 2, for their letter to The Journal, dated January 5. It has given me courage to report conditions at the Willamette Val ley Lumber company's mill at Dallas. This company went stronger on the cut of wages than the companies mentioned by the committee. After soliciting among the employes for the reorganiza tion of the Loyal Legion, and trying to find as nearly as possible what they thought of the Loyal Legion as a peace time organization, urging the men that it is to their interest to Join the new Loyal Legion organization, the next move was to announce to some of the workers that wages would be cut from 20 cents to 40 cents per day. Any per son can see the "iron hand" reaching out to clutch the workingmen. ' The men have not walked out. They are not an organized union and have not the cour age to stand together for the good of all. The "iron hand" knew It was taking advantage of the workers. It caught them at a time when it seemed impossi ble for them to resist, as some of the men have had severe sickness in their families. . and there are heavy bills to be paid. Most of them have Liberty bonds, with the heaviest payments due this month, and the cost of foodstuffs still on the increase. Some of the men are afraid if they lose this little "measly" day's wage they will be facing worse condJUons. and out of .a job in midwin ter. This is the "mailed fist," the tyranny our armies have fought so valiantly to subdue. Would it not be wise to look well into conditions of this kind before our working people are driven to- revolt? These workers are true Americans and are entitled to a fair share of liberty and freedom. LOYAL AMERICAN. A Protest Cottrell, Jan. 14.t-To the Editor of The Journal Why all this commotion about the Socialist party? What crimes have we committed that we should not be allowed to hold our meetings in public buildings? Is It a crime to be lieve in justice and equality for man kind? The Socialist party is a recog n!zed political party at the polls. It fhas not yet een made a criminal act to vote the Socialist ticket Then why are we not allowed to voice our belief in the government of the people, as other political parties are allowed to do? Who is it that so fears us that they must talk of violence to silence us? Is it the common people, or those who have wealth at their command? Socialism has not sorung up. In a night. For years it has been the cry of the downtrodden of every nation. Tolstoi tried to lead the masses of poor people In Russia from their misery by Social ism. He taught justice, not violence. Those in, power; over the poor were the violators of peace, for they used violence to destroy every right of the poor. If we asa nation have become a liberator for the oppressed of the world by giv ing our boys to die on foreign battle fields why this oppression of our own people at home? The inconsistency of such injustice Is plain. A. V. ANDREWS. Colonel Thompson and Bolshevism Portland. Jan. 12. To the Editor of The Journal I have been highly enter tained by your editorial and the letters from the people on the Bolshevist trouble, and heartily agree with you that it is being used as a sort of "bogey man"to scare the unintelligent. An In teresting sidelight was thrown on the question last weekwhen the Republican national committee went oit record as violently opposed to- Bolshevism. Of course this waa to' have been expected. The American reading public have not been permitted i to hear the other side, and the cause of the Russian people's struggling against their former masters' has elicited but little ' sympathy from liberty loving Americans. , . . But that same Republican national committee at the very same . meeting appointed a sub committee . to prepare the ground for a suitable and fitting memorial to the late Former President Roosevelt. - Of ? all the publk; , men - In the Republican ranks who were avail able for the chairmanship of this sub committee can you explain-why it was A l Kader Temple Begins Its Victory. Ceremonial Visiting Nobles From All Parts of Oregon and Some From Wash ington and Idaho Are in Attendance at Important Event at Municipal The Victory Ceremonial of Al Kader Temple, Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of Mystic Shrine, began last night at 7:30 at the Municipal Auditorium, the Arab patrol protecting the Al Kader Bedouin band, led by Frank r.ucas. announcing the fact to the assembled multitude of Nobles. One of the features of the en tertainment and ceremonial was the Al Kadei Chanters, led by W. R. Boone. The ladies' reception committee, led' by Noble E. J. Jaeger, made good with the wives and sisters of visiting nobles, feasting them Friday night and enter taining them at the Hellig theatre Sat urday night Another feature of the Ceremonial greatly appreciated 'was the buffet lunch served between the first and seconofSection of the Ceremonial stunts. It was the real thing in lunches. The class of applicants numbered over 200. These, together with the nobles seeking to secure the mystic 1919 card from Recorder Hugh J. Boyd, kept him going filling out blanks and cards for 72 hours continuously, only rolling over once or twice after midnight eftch night before getting up in the morning again The representatives to the Imperial Council, George L. Baker. Oeorge Wash? ington Stapleton. William Davis and H, T. Hutchinson, are well fortified for the struggle to secure the Imperial Councl In 1920 for Portland.- So positively posli tive were their promises to that effect that they will not dare come home from the 1019 Imperial Council without it j Visiting nobles came from all parts of, Oregon, and some parts of Washington, and Idaho. There were army boys from several states, and all in a fraternal; state of mind. ; Shriners are all Masons of the thlrty tecond degree or they are Knights Tem plar. The Shrine is a good-fellowship, tstlstlc and fun-loving body of Masons, and many Masons take the higher de grees Just to be able to wear the in signia of the order. Over 20i of Al Ka der's 2276 members are or have been in the service of the United State In its allies war against Hunism. Three of them have proved their devotion by, the last full gift that a man can make. The officers of Al Kader temple are: W. J. Hofmann, Illustrious potentate ; a xx T.a rRtef rabban : Frank S. high priest and prophet; 1LT. Hutch1 that Colonel William B. Thompson of Yonkers. N, Y.., should have, been se lected? You will doubtless recall that Colonel Thompson, a very wealthy American mining man. and head of the Thompson-Gray copper interests, was at the head of our Red Cross at Petro grad a year ago. On his return to New York he delivered an address before the Rocky Mountain club, which was inserted In the Congressional Record by Senator Calder of New York." with a laudatory introduction. At almost the same ' time it was stated that Colonel Thompson had given over 11.000.000 of his own money to aid the - Bolsheviitt cause. In his address he compared the Russian Bolshevist 'government as equal to the "miners' law" of the West, which, he added, "was always good law." ' , . ', I have little use for the anarchist or the I. W. W., and I can frankly say that I favor as strongly the control, by the money mad. To my mind the so lution of present industrial troubles will not be reached by either of the facUons. ny oily remedy lies in the hands of cool-headed. ' clear-brained Americans, who will not be much Im pressed with the rantings of the "pro letariat." so-called, nor. with, the equally unintelligent men of "big business," who have for .the moment thrown dust into the eyes of the reading and gullible public by carefully camouflaging the truth of the present troubles .through a senile press. ARTHUR PATRICK. The Married Woman's Job -Salem, Jan. 1J. To the Editor of The Journal There is no reason for sending questionnaires all over the state, if the legislature would pass a bill to bar married women from holding Jobs.' Just look In the stores, state institutions, woolen mills and even the canneries; the very best Jobs are held by married women who have husband that are get ting good wages, and i who have ; good homes and means. This does not only keep the soldier from getUng work, bat also young men, as well as widows with children that have to; work" for' a living, " - - " SUBSCRIBER,' ft Auditorium. - inson. Oriental guide; -A. M. Brown, treasurer ; Hugh J. - Boyd, -recorder. These constitute the elective divan for 1919. With' an appointive staff and a large number of assistants, the degren work of the ceremonial was conferred In a manner that did credit to the tem ple ar.d its official custodians JOHN SHIPLEY SAYS HE CAME i NEAR STARVING Lived 6 Weeks On Milk Laid Up Whole YearGains 21 Pounds On Tanlac Now Eats Anything "When I , finished taking my firrt bottle of Tanlac I could not see much improvement In my condition, but. if I had given it up at that time It would have been the mistake pr my life," ald John E. Shipley, of lL'83 . Sanchi a street. San Francisco. "It has certainly paid me well," fie continued, "to stick to Tanlac, for a few bottles have dona me more real good than everything else I have taken combined,, and I-have spent a small fortune trying to get relief. I have suf fered from stomach trouble for. twenty five years ago and had despaired of evr getting well until Tanlac commenced to put me in shape. I used to. have my worst trouble about' three or four hours after eating when I would have a slck ish feeling through my stomach and such fearful pains about rny llvt-e that I could hardly stand It. On raid I had gall stones and would never recover without an operation. I then had an X-ray- examination un ' was told it was my liver that caused rny trouble, and . so it went on, one saying one thing and one another. In the- meantime 1 was put on a diet of cereals and toast, and from that to a milk diet. For mix solid weeks before I began taking Tanlac 1 never had a bite of anjr kind of food Just drank milk and was literally starving, but the dieting did no good and I gradually got worse. I was also troubled wilft constipation- There has been months at a time when I was unable to work and one time I ' was laid up for a whole year. ;'.-; s "So things ' rocked along until a friend of - mine talked me - into 'trying Tanlac. When, I started on this medi cine.ii. weighed only, one hundred and fifteen -pounds had dropufd eff from ope hundred and. flfty-twoso ;you can imagine what a dreadful condition I was In. Well, my first bottle of Tan lac never helped me any that I could tell but I couldn't afford , to condemn a medicine so many people caid had helped them, so. I kept on taking it and am certainly glad I did for It has really and truly made me feel like a new man. I never. felt any great improvement until after I had taken five or six bottles and then I began gradually feeling better. Bo I. kept right on., taking five or t more bottles, and by that, time , I was weighing one hundred' and tblrty-sl pounds had gained twenty-one pqunds and . since- then I have felt perfectly ' sound and well. ' I never have an aeh-i or pain nor a sign of stomach troubl any more. 1 sleep like a log every niirht and have more energy and strength than I have in yetft-s. This is certainly one. happy new year for me and is the f itt . hone in twenty-five when-1 could say-1 was free from suffering. I still take a dose now and then and would buy tin every bottle in town if I knew no mnf was going to be made.
