Edna Fe'rber is chosen as the
one to shin this month in the
Literary Spotlight" of the Book
man. The sketch is written by
William Groper. The varying in
terests, knowledge and views of
this rising author are pet forth
in an appreciative way by the
writer. He says that in her lat
ent book, "The Girls,'' Miss Fer-
ber has shown to what lengths
she can advance in 10 years and
it remains to be seen how much
farther she will go.
"Tbe Girls" has been called a
historical novel of Chicago. It
begins at -time of the Civil war
and goes through the World war.
Three generations of one family
are the chief characters in this
half century and more of happen

-
What do the men working on
the streets read?
Charles R. Walker, Jr., who
has spent two years in varying
places steel mills, rubber fac
tory and few other industries,
tells of some things he found out
while there of what the workman
reads. He ends, however, by say
ing: "The average workman, like the
average man, still reads his pay
check number and tbe expression
on his neighbor's face, a little
more, but not much,"
: He te"Us of his embarrassment
sometimes when in answer to his
question of what he read,, the
workman ' sometimes went beyond
his, Walker's, depth, to a certain
extent. .He says that just as he
has known of learned men who
spent their . few leisure hours in
reading "Snappy Stories" so many
workmen reading the best lltera
ture has to offer.

Portions of "Enter Madam,"
which will be reproduced by Gay
MacLaren in Salem this month,

WHA T CHERRIANS THINK ABOUT
What does a Cherrian think j tng tourists of 5alem and the Will
about? j a met to valley.
At the monthlv meeting held re- u. G. Shipley Let a'l fot
cently at the Commercial club.
King Bing McGilchrisl asked each
Cherrian to arise, state his name
and occupation, and what he
thought the Cherrians should do
this year for the benefit of Salem
and community.
In the order called upon as
seated around the banquet table,
the following brief opinions were
expressed:
Carle Abrams We should visit
the small towns and communities
near Salem and get acquainted.
Frank G. Myers We should
hold a cherry fair, by all means, j
OREGON
CLUBS AND
WOMEN'S ACTIVITIES
Dr. O. A. Olson The Cherrians
should have a cherry fair and
then boost to have a full atten-;
dance at the state fair.
Elmer Daue The automobile
camr in Salem is of the utmost
importance and we should keep it
going.
Lee L. Gilbert The Cherrians
should buy the camp grounds.
Something must be done to pro
vide right accommodations for the
tourist travel through the valley
which iwll be larger than ever
this season.
Varnuni E, Kuhn We should
keep up the camp ground and
take an interest in it by visiting
campers and telling them of oar
town and country.
Harry T. Love I'm sorry we
didn't have a chance to vote on
buying the camp grounds. Tbe
state fair Is too big a thing to lay
down on. By getting more people
in Oregon we can reduce taxes,
W. II. ParkerWe should get
behind our organization. We need
more men who will get out and
work when called iupon
Carl B. Webb The Cherrians
in uniform should visit the. near
by towns. There are a lot of good
people, with whom we should get
acquainted.
R. O. Snelling I'm willing to
do anything for the Cherrians. Of
course something must be done to
maintain the automobile camp
w. J. Kearth Let us work for
Blossom day. It is one of the
greatest advertisements we have.
Then we must not fail to visit
surrounding towns and get ac
quainted with our next door
neighbors. We should have music
on Blossom day.
Alfred N. Pierce We should
boost for Blossom day and then;
make it a point to see that the
canrp grounds are ready for the
big tourist travel. Then we should
tisit ; surrounding towns'. '
O. E. Knowiand -I'm not es
pecially tn favor of a cherry fair..
The bi thing for the Cherrians to
do id to get .acquainted by visiting
surrounding communities. Then
we must all wrork f or Blossbm day.
wmiam Busick fWe should
baik of the exposition. It
will mean great things for this
part of Oregon. WV should have
au honorary retired list of Cher
rians for those who Cannot take
an active part in the Work. Let's
have good will for all.
Harley O. White Don't knock.
Boort. Just a short time ago a
stranger was here ready to buy.
He met a lot of ieople and every
one knocked. The stranger left.
Stop knocking. It hurts. If every
Cherrian boosts and surpre&s the
knockers, we will be helping the
community.
Milton L. 'Meyers -I m not in
favor of going to Portland to at
tend the Rose carnival- I believe
community sing would improve
the general friendly feeing in this
part of the valley.
J. C. Perry I hope we will
have a chance to vote for a gaso
line tax for the state; exposition.
The fair would be of great benefit
to this part of Oregon.
W. M. Hamilton We should
attend the Portland Rose carnival
in a body In uniform. It is a great
advertisement for Salem. The
eastern people who see us learn
that Salem is on the map. Adver
tise and boost Salem. Attending
the Hose carnival is one of the
ways.
C. S. Hamilton Let's change
our method of parking ears. Let
as advocate parking with head in
against the curb. I will volunteer
to demonstrate to the city council
that we save time a ad apac by
parking head first.
Bert Macy The Portland Rose1
carnival is all right and we should
attend. The 1925 exposition will
do Salem no more good than any
event since the Lewis & Clark
fair. We want only boosters in the
Cherrian organlxation.
Frank Spears We should feed
people on Blossom day. Cherrians
should -make, an effort to be
f riendlywith new "bmers to the
city 'and' trinity. We- -should
make them 'feel at home.
k,Curtia'AB Crosa We should
help the social service. There is
great work to be done in helping
those in need, and I didnt realise
this until I took jart in the work
of the Associated Charities just
before Christmas.
L. W. Gleason The Cherrians
should have a fine drill team.
This attracts attention to the or
ganization and Salem . also.
A. H. Gill The crying need of
alom is a community center or
auditorium. We need a public au
ditorium for many events such as
conventions and community sings.
C. B. Claacey Cherrians
should visit surrounding towns.
We should become better ac
eaaiHted with our neighbors. The
Cherrians should work for the
camp grounds and Blossom day.
George G. Brown The illumi
nating of the Cherrians Christmas
tree shoald be ontinod each
year. It attracts attention of trav
elers. Then we should get behind
tbe auto camp grounds anf, Blos
som day.
Zadoc J. Rijrg In June, many ;
Shriners will anto through Salem'
on their way to the conclave at;
San Francisco. We should enter
tain them while in the city, and
even go to Portland and bring
them as far as Salem. We blight
arrange to have special train
sto an hur. -
A. A. Gtreffroy Keep the camp
grounds going. Then we should
arrange to visit surrounding
towns and communities and get
acquainted with our neighbors.
Dr. H. H. OiinKer We should
buy the automobile camp grounds.
I will be one to take stock In a
company that, will bay the
grounds. The Cherrians could
hold and manage tho grounds just
as an investment I'll take S20O
worth ot stock right now.
Arthur R. Wilson When I go
around the world again. I will
carry Willamette valley literature
with me.
T. E. McCreakey The Cher
rians should buy the camp
grounds and it will be a paying in
vestment. All camp grounds in
the northwest will charge tourists
50 cents a night for accommoda
, tions. Free camp grounds with
accommodations are now a thing
of the past. If an individual does
not take over the grounds, the
Cherrians should. Under the
management of the Cherrians. the
auto- camp grounds -would be its
greatest advertisement.
