To show their appreciation of a Salem girl who has become an ar tist in national and interpretive dancing, theater managers of Sa lem have Invited Miss Elisabeth Schriber to appear for one day at each of their sbowhouses thla week Just before her departure for her future field of professional work In Los Angeles. She will dance'at matinee and evening shows in addtlion to the regular moving picture program and do the popular Spanish, Egyptlan-and interpretive dances in which she hat appeared at several social functions. As a pupil irr the public schools until her family removed, to south ern California, she is remembered by hundreds of children and young people who will rejoice at this op portunity to Bee her in her initial public , appearance in her home city and among old friends. Dates of her appearances here are to be announced. As an exponent of classical art, Miss Schreiber is acknowledged by all who hav, seen 'her to be the most beautiful young dancer who has appeared in the west. She in herited her artistic pose and ex pression from her father who will be remembered at Salem as direc tor, of fine aratra maanar4 train ing for years- in the high school, and who created the panomarma of the Willamette valley for the fctate fair board.

Colonel and Mrs. George A. White, with their daughter, Hen rietta, were with the American legion party who climbed Mt. Hood this last weekend. They climbed only as far as Cuaner's Spur. There they enjoed the wonderful panorama of the sur rounding country trom their po sition on the north slope of Mt. Hood, At first camp. Saturday liight, the Whites, and the other members of the party were forced to "rough it" until 11 p. h., when the mule teams bearing blankets finally trotted into camp. Another laughable incident they report was the fact that th' 25 pounds of beans, French hari cots, which were taken alonsr by the army cooks, would not boil at such a high altitude. So the party had to get along without team:. Robert TJishjp t ntertainedG six of his boy friend Tuesday aft ernoon, hono.inp his friend, Charles Gier, on ihs 12th birth day, w'th a line party at the O.-e-Kon theater.

Alden of Will amette has returned from the Ep worth league institute at Jeffer con last week where over 300 people were in attendance this year. The delegation from Salem outnumbered any two others pres ent, Mr. Alden ieports. The Misses Bertha and Marlowe Miller returned Sunday from a month's stay In Eastern Oregon. Miss Florence Miller recently from Chicago, who is spending the summer in Salem, attended' the Epworth league institute in Jer ferson last week, where she rep resented the Chicago Training school from which she graduated in June.

The writer's section of the Sa lem Art3 league held their regu lar meeting In Painters' woods yesterday, combining it with a picnic afternoon and evening.

Forget that there '3 such a tiling as trouble, take your house with yon and travel everlastingly. That is what H. J. cow'.es, "wife unri family of three children, and Mrs. Anderson, all of Watsonvlllc, Cal., are doing. They were in Sa lem Saturday, on the last end of their journey, though they ex pect to start another when thi:-: one is over. Thry Travel in Style They left Watsonville as adver tising heralds for the Orchard Realty company of their home town. It wasn't an amateur out fit that interested them. They did it in style. They bought a White two-ton truck, five-inch pneumatk front tires and six-inch pneumatic rears; build a regular house on the chasis, and away they went. The outfit represents above $5000 and is the most complete home that has ever visited Salem on wheels. They had traveled 9.968 miles ".p to the time of reaching Salem. Their repairs expense had been or.ly 35 cents for the car; this, of course, being exclusive of the ;as and oil. Truck Xevcr Stuck "We were never ntuclc on tht trip." said Mr. Cowles. "We have pulled somewhere from 75 to 100 ethers out of various kinds- of holes, some of them desperately bad. but the worst roads never touched us. We visited through Texas, Louisiana. Alabama, up the Atlantic seacoast to Nova Scotia, and then have loafed homeward over the northerly route. We took in the glacier and Yellowstone National parks, and about every thing that is of interest in that whole almost 10,000 miles. Willamette Valley Praised The party started out with the belief that Watsonville. Cal., was the only real garden spot in the world, where people lived because they wanted to live through knowledge and not where they had to exist as penance. But on striking the Willamette vaJley, Mr. Cowles said almost regretfully that "California has nothing on yon here in Oregon. This is the finest country I have seen in all our trip. There's no doubt about it the finest I've seen- since 1 left home." The Cowles party travels in a cleverly designed house-car, that is tig enough, permanent enough to give comfort under almost any weather conditions. It rides mnch more comfortably than a light rig, and has proven trouble-proof and a thing of joy forever. Big Vehicle Comfortable The subtantial truck construc tion, while at first thought not just what one would want for pleasure touring, really does offer the maximum of comfort, like a ponderous Pullman that rides smoothly because of its' weight. The truck has not achieved quite the mileage per gallon of gasoline that some lighter rigs might have. done, but in the absence of break age, and In comfort, it has the lighter vehicles hanging out on a limb over the bottomless pit and the limb almost sawed off. of ti.e mountain trails, as far Old Liz wonld po. Then they walked an'infiniie distance far-; ther to Teal creek. They fished j for a while, catching many fine , t,rout. ' "Let's stay here all night lady said. "Km we haven't any blankets." was the judgment of the master of the household. Ilia the no tion finally appealed 10 him, too, fo he proposed tb walk back to a house near where they had lett the car, borrow some blankets. and spend the night at the falls. He finally returned with the blanket. They plucked pone nf the down off the hemlock trees, and the bosom feathers ofl h Quantity of ferns; then they turned in, with the fire crackling weirdly on the rocky ledge and the falls .tinkling and soughing everlastingly in the dusk. The night proved to be the loncest night in all history, and the blanket was hardly as big as a postage stair.D. divided ameVj: three. The bears and wildcats didn't come and eat 'em up, they almost wished they would, for hey have fine warm pelts, even if it is usually rather annoying for a person to get inside One of them under such conditions. The night, indeed, has hardly ended even yet for the one-blanket crowd.

(Special to The Statesman) Miss Kthel Smith entertained a few friends at a tea Monday afternoon on the spacious lawn at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. K. fmlth. She was assisted by her sister. Miss Virginia Smith of San Francisco. The invited guests were: Mrs, Gordon McCall, Mrs. Ernest Elk man, Miss llislop. Miss Rosella Kichardsen and Miss Marion Taylor. Canned goods in peneral may be expected to take a sharp ad vance in price in the near future, according to. good wholesale au thority. The trade has taken a consid erable quantity of this year's fruit pack. One of the Salem can neries reports that practically all its product 1s under agreement tor the year. All this will mean the stabilizing of prizes, and their steady if not heavy advance. . 25 Per (Vn tlWxst Likely. Corn,' peas, and to a lesser ex tent tojnatoos, are expected to make the largest advance. A boost of fully 25 per cent is an ticipated by one of the clearest headed of tb wholesalers in the valley. This figure, however, is not put out as a definite proph ecy. It is part of the general ad vancing tendency, though these f articular goods are almost cer aln to advance more than other commodities. Oatmeal Going Up. Oatmeal Is another product that is almost' certain to be high in price, for there is snid to be an unsual shortage of white oats suit able for table preparation. The general tendency of the market is upward in almost every line, not to war prices, but certainly high er than -the low level that has prevailed In many lines this sum mer. Flour Mon Stable.

Most of the high priced stuff that had to be sacrificed, has al ready gone Onto the shelves, and the loss, has bw n wiped off as something of the past. Whatever 1 left is likely to stand pretty closely at the price of replace ment, and as this jirlce U above tho panic isalea price of a thou sand commodities, the future holds -only the promise of a le gitimate advance rather than an illegitimate fall, .
