SNAP IN EDITORIALS ' (6regon Voter) Salem Statesman has on editorial writer who puts a lot of pep and good sense into the opinion column of that daily. "The stars in their courses fight for Salem from now on." he writes in commenting upon the way Salem has been taken hold of by loganberry juice manufacturers, dehy drated fruit manufacturers and paper manufacturers. "Let's get behind every industry that has merit," he urges, "and put it over so big the world can never say again that Salem isn't on the job." If these editorials voice the new Salem spirit, nothing can keep the old town down. IT'S AN ACT OF FOLLY To wear glasses where there is no necessity for them; but If you have any trouble whatever with your eyes It is also an act of folly not to havo a specialist examine them. If you are in doubt, consult us, you will not regret it. HENRY E. MORRIS & CO. Manufacturing Optometrists 306 State Street, Salem. It seems odd for the church folk to urge flying hi:h. but they ar do- n gto fo far as the Sunday aviators re concerned. Pretty roon they will be painting warnings on the roofs of chnrches and school so that the bird' men can junvp a mile or so higher aod avoid disturbing the exercises. PRACTICAL MISSIONARIES ' Thanks for the compliment And still greater thanks for the last paragraph. These editor ials do voice the new Salem spirit, and nothing can keep the old town dovn. More and more wealth will be taken out of the soil, year after year, as these great industries grow. There will be no end to it. "With such conditions, Salem's growth is as certain as anything in the future can possibly be. Salem's growth and continued prosperity. It is a prosperity, too, that is reciprocal ; that binds the country tft the city nd joins them both together in a steady upward course towards the best ideals of urbun, suburban and rural life and living. Salem will be a prosperous city. And at the same time she will be a model city surrounded by a model country, in all things that represent the best in American ideals. . SALEM ON WORLD MAP (Oreeon VoterV ' Through advertising columns of Saturday Evening Post and other great magazines of international circulation the Enelish-speak- ing world is being made familiar with the names of products of Willamette Valley fruits manufactured in Salem. The Phez people and the King's Products people are spending nearly $250,000 for mis advertising. . . , ; Salem Statesman recognizes in this an effort which will redound greatly to the advantage of Salem and Oregon. Not only is it mak ing fcaiem one of the hest-advertiaed communities in the United States," but "the name Oregon will soon become as magic as the name of California." "Through the ability and courage of Oregon business men, we are to take our .place in the sun. People from all over the country are being attracted here and farm lands are beinir houeht. With what Salem and the Valley have to offer in choice, fertile lands at icaauuauie prices ana a guaranteed market through these industries it is certain we are due for a great erowth." Appeals are rriade for the communitv to back nn the irreat industries in every possible way. The Voter believes these appeals will be heeded. No effort ever made in the history of Oregon ever has done so much to advertise this state, extend the market for its products or minister more directly to the prosperity of its farmers than what is being accomplished by the Phez and King people at their own expense. By his efforts to reconcile the contending political factions in the upper house of Congress, and secure the ratification of the treaty, with reservatons that would satisfv the over cantinna anii thus perform a useful service, and do no possible harm, Senator McNary of Oregon has taken a place in the lime light, on the world stage. The men of his mind and purpose are constantly referred to in the dispatches as the "McNary group." That group or men will lead the entire world to the path of peace, if it is to be so led at ail in the very near future. This consummation wnnlrl honor the "McNary group," and earn its members a place of erati muc in me uearis oi an peoples, ana deservedly so. It now seems to be settled that the ex-kaiser will be tried next April at Hampton Court, near London. But if he is to have a iury i u pec, iuey win nave to adjourn to a warmer climate than iiampion uourt ariords. , Hoover's chief statistician says there's plenty of food in the world. It's merely a question of proper distribution. It took bridges of ships to win the war. It will take bridges of ships to get the world back to a normal peace basis. Now, if some one will furnish Charley McNary a good steam roller, the job will soon be over. - Watch Salem grow if only she can provide houses for people ' to live in. . v The Methodists have bought a 4000 acre ranch in Southern Chile mug purpose to instruct the peons of the country in modem agricultural meth ods. They wish to train the nativcb to reach oit for their opportunities and provide intelligently for their bodies. Their souls will come later. This is a reversal of the usual for eign missionary idea, but has the merit of being practical. It isn't necessary to say that they are going far away to inaugurate this line c.' Christian industrial effort. There are already Institutions and agencies carrying out thi same work in Amer ica aod., therefore, no fault can be found with a little pioneering in Chile. The climate is one which per- lqits of wondeiful results in agricul ture and fruit raising. The tract ia already extensively planted to apples, peaches, pears and apricots and there are also lemon and orange trees in numbers for the district is one which permits of citrus cultivation. There are also many fine cattle and sheep. Yet the people round about are much the same as when the Span iards found them 400 years ago. They are splendid material for a mental and moral awakening and the "Meth odists are to be honored for their sincere and sensible plans for devel oping the field. little sound religioa in business and too little sound business in religion. BUMPING. We used to sing of the light canoe Afloat on the rippling tide, But cow we travel the sky so blue Where the clous serenely glide. So, come my love, and we will sail As we carol a modern song. The stars we'll meet and the moon we'll hail As we merrily blimp along. The horse may stand in his lonely stall. And the flivver mar rest obscure The yacht Is still, though the breezes call. There Is now a loftier lure. So come, my love, for a sail serene In a craft that is light and strong All we need Is nerve and some gaso line 'And we'll merrily blimp along. Oh! It was beautiful. It was poignantly beautiful. To see the young mother. With hands outheld to the future In simple, sublime act of giving. Offer herself back to Nature. With her life as pledge for a new life. And it was beautiful. It was heart-breaking, but beautiful. To see them marching In thousands. Eager-eyed, resolute, marching; With quiet eyes set full of visions. They went up for their chrism of torment; Since countless future lives caned them. They offered themselves back to Na tnre. Their glad, young lives pledged for a new life. Grace Wallace. Hollywood.

This is interesting 'news and it Is to be hoped that the producers will not only make pictures that will en tertain, instruct and uplift, but that the churches wil realize a fair fi nancial return on their investment. One great trouble with this old world is that as a rule there is too I SHALL, NOT 81XG AGAIN: I shall not sing again. The child has gone who made my song for mo, The little singing words! There is no lilt to pain. The notes would wail, but those he gave to me Rang with the joy of birds. ? . I shall hot sing again. The earth lies heavy on his golden head, It hides his sunny eyes. I wait out in the rain i But no notes come his singing' lips are dead; So my song dies. D. F. Dalston. Jn the Bookman There are some folks who think they personally discovered the Ten Commandments.

I Where religious and race preju dices are concerned there is apt to be great distortion of the truth. Now Henry Morgenthau. himself a Jew of the highest standing and head of the American commission which was sent to investigate the massacres of Jews in Poland, says that "the reports of the pogroms were tremendously ex aggerated. He adds that some of the Polish Jews overlook the fact that equal rights also involve equal duties and that they can't expect benefits ntader any government un less they support it patriotically, and not take a hyphenate or hostile atti tude. This ia good advice for other people besides the Jews. : VHAT NATUROPATHY TEACHES ' Naturopathy teaches that since the forces of Nature are' able to make the body In the first place and to maintain it in running order in a state of health that, therefore, these same forces of Nature are able to restore the body to health when It Is sick if the causes of the sick. ness are removed. In other words, health is the result of the unobstruct ed working of the natural forces of the body, while disease is the result of Interference with the working of the natural forces of the body. Na turopathy teaches that the human body, like that of every other animal, is self healing. If disease.producing Interferences are removed so that the body's natural forces may function normally. Naturopathy teaches that the con dltions necessary in order that the natural forces of the body may func tion normally are, a pure and unob structed blood stream and a sound nervous system, also unobstructed; and that the factors that produce the one will produce the other. These factors are as follows: 1st. An abundance of pure fresh air. 2nd. A liberal supply of pure wa ter. 3rd. About 8 hours of sleep regu- larlv taken each day. 4th. Enough, but not too much good, plain, wholesome food, proper It selected, prepared, commnea. 6 th. Active physical exercise, pre ferably In the open air. 6th. Cleanliness, both mental and Physical. However, a sound mechanical con dition of the body is necessary in order that a pure blood stream and a sound nervous system may function normally. In other words, there must be no bony or other pressure on, or other mechanical Interference wun the blood vessels or nerves. Nerve impulse and circulation must have unobstructed access to every part of the body. IP THESE CONDITIONS EXIST. HEALTH IS INEVITABLE.

Church member In one of the suburbs of an American big city are asking aviators to fly high on the Sabbath Day. The roar of the en gines and the whir of the propellers when they pass only a few hundred yards overhead disturb the peaceful conduct of the Sunday services. When a man 1s slumbering peace fully in his favorite pew he doesn like to be startled by the sounds of a human buzzard droning outside his window. When the preacher is describing the miraculous flight of Elijah nn his chariot of fire It is disagrceabl to have the children smile pityingly at poor 'Lije In comparison with the evolutions of the birdman spinnin over their heads.
