IKE-MIL DAY FOR THRIFT FOLK Justice Harris Explains a i Few Provisions of the Inheritance Law Today is "M&ke a Will Day' In the program of the National Webb & Clough ' Leading Funeral Directors Expert Embalmers Rigdon & Son's MORTUARY ; Uiiequaled Service Clancy, Florist, Inc. : 125 North High, Phone 381 Say It with Flowers''" ' Thrift week campaign and Judge Lawrence T, Harris, ot the Ore gon supreme court was asked to contributo an' explanatory article on the advantages of making a will and having one's estate properly cared for in the event of death. Judge Harris cou Uibuteg a remarkably lucid, plain-English explanation of ( will making, what it means and how the property owner's wish may be I carried out. The article fol lows: "A person Is said to die Inter state if he or she does not leave J a will, and ttate if he or she doet leave a will. If a person dies interstate the law provides fcr the administration ot his es tate. If a will has not been left, the law provides for the selec tion Qf an administrator who must give a . bond; and the law also specifies the relatives to whom the property "goes and measures the parts of the prop erty which shall go to such re latives. In short,, if there is no will he law names the relatives who shall receive the property and fixes the amounts which they shall receive. - "If one wishes to name some certain person to administer his or j her estate, he or she may do so by making a will and the one naking the will may also direct that the . executor shall act with out bonds. ; If . a person r does not ' wish that his or her prop erty shall at death go to such relatives as are named by the statutes he or she may- make a will, and, subject to courtesy'. dow- ftn1 home5teail , richts. nay by such will give his or per property to such persons a he or she may choose. ,, : ; "In brief, if one does not leave a will the law not Only provides for th selection of the admin l-.lrator and names the persons to whom the property goes but also ' prescribes how much of the property goes to each of ' such Iiersons. if the . owner or prop erty wishes his or her property to be divided among such of his or her relatives and. in r such parts as is prescribed by the statutes there is no particular advantage in making a will un less the owner wishes to name Rome person to administer the estate. If, however, the owner wishes to have his or her prop erty divided otherwise than is provided by the statutes, he or she may do so by making a will, subject of course to curtsey dower and homestead rights." , ' CENSUS OF JOBS Campaign to Get Man to His f Job With Least Loss r of Time Possible i . During 1922 i the Salem YMCA got definite, cash Jobs for more than 400 men and boys, i The aggregate of the wages earned turough this service Is not ascer tainable, but putting it at 925 apiece -and some were 10 times that much -it would be more than $10,000. Besides the) help to the workers. It was a great accomodation and profit to many of the employers to know where they could get help. For the season of 1923 the Y plans to carry on an even more vigorous labor campaign. Al ready letters are being sent out by the hundreds, to employers, asking them to let the Y serve them, without cost to either em ployer or employe, and urging them to list their requirements as these become known. The Y does not expect to be as . the earnest but ungrammatical ex torter told his church, audience, he wanted to .be to them "a father to the fatherless, a jwld ow.r to the wldowless, - and an orphan to the orphanless;'! but according to Secretary Kells, ij does cot pec t to be a job-hunter for dt he Jobless, and a help to the helpless. - All ovet the country' the Is recognised as the jobless man's home and many men go to the Y the very first ping en going to a new place looking for work" In Portland last? year the "Y had two t agents oni tne Job continuously, and they found work for more than 4,000 jmen. The Salem Y Is aiming ta jcarry oh th best traditions of! the institution' and so is setting to work early ' to line ap all pos sible employers of labor and get their needs for the season, so as to be . able to supply them as the need arises.

AdV. :JIli4- SALEM WANTS EDDY SPEAKS AT Senator from, Douglas Em phasizes Paying Bills and . Learning to Spell Most of the feeders . at ' the Chamber of Commerce Monday luncheon were practicing Thrift Week by saving their own time and letting Georg wait on them; but eventually 'they gathered to form a good and hungry arti ence. ; Senator Eddy of Dqiglas county was the speaker for the day. He started In on "Pay Your Bills Promptly." but soon partic ularized on the besetting Amer ican sin of dodging responsibility. . Divorce ' Moral Cowardice ' The divorce evil he held to be dne largely to this-moral coward ice, the refusal to live up to one's obligation to the, home and to society through the establishment of worth-while homes. The ne glect of the, voting franchise and the cowardice ot the secret bal lot that says ' it does one thing when the count shows that It has done another,' he characterized as a flshwormy evasion of responsi bility and courage. . . Following this argument for being more thrifty of moral re sponsibility. Senator Eddy turned to educational matters now before the state legislature. He an nounced that today at 4 o'clock a committee hearing is to be giv en to ; the hill providing for the teaching of American biography and constitutional history, punc tuation, spelling and penmanship and he urged those who could do so to attend the hearing. He left the Inference that if they wanted to "'plug' for it they might. . v i .The, senator told of the opera tions of the high school in his own home and In his own bus! ness. His little daughter recent ly called on him to pungle up for a book on Roman mythology for a high school class, and for divers other volumes on sociology, div orce and goodness only knew what all. He pungled, but he said that be feared to trust these things to the immaturity of the high' school. ' Graduates Knocked f In his own business, he said. he had employed many gradu ates who might know mythology and n Imposing string of 'ologies, but. they . didn't know how to speed or 1 punctuate, or to write legibly. He wants to see some of the essentials stressed In the high schools, to give a good work ing educational foundation to the 90 per cent of high school stud ents who never go to college. He said that the high school course Is largely in the grasp of the older collegiate j idea, that the high school is essentially a train ing , department for the college, instead of. being the final schol astic end of 90 per cent of its attendants. He would make them learn , enough of their mother tongue to-carry them respectfully through life on the low gear of a high school diploma even if they do not speed up Into the high gear of college. . If of er Talks I Col. E. M. Hofer threw two minutes worth of monkey wrench es .into the machinery of the in come tax bills now before the legislature. He stated "that Oreg on already had the highest tax rate according to its valuation of any state in the Union, and that this new assault on industry was practically the last straw ; that couldn't, be borne. .:''( Steward Roy Knight served up a piquant dinner; of Wienerwurst and Bauer kraut, olives, celery, baked potatoes, rolls and Oregon pumpkin pie. ! Four-Oregon Towns Come Under Provisions of Ed- ucational Measure Representative Woodward's bill to require alt school districts of Salem, Eugene, Astoria and Portland to provide special in struction of students classified as educationally exceptional, passed the house yesterday with 4! affirmative votes. The bill was opposed by Rep resentatives Gordon and Keeney, the first on the primary ground that ' it would not reduce any taxes as claimed and the latter in the ground that It would re Bult in the branding of a child, thus isolated,- as a mentally de ficient individual. ; ' A proposed amendment by Representative Overturf, limiting the bill perpetually to the towns named was defeated by the ob jection of Mrs. Simmons despite the; fact that the j educational committeej had agreed to the amendment.; s- ; ' , Representative Woo d w a r d, aathor - of the .hill and - chairman of the Portland school! board, ar gued that retarded children now LUNCHEON SU IRCLUDED IN SCHOOL BILL cost the Portland - district about (200,000 annually but "- In - - an swer Jo a question - by Repre sentative Cordon agreed that tEere would1 be, no teachers dis charged or any reduction In the costN of maintaining the schools since the Portland school i dis trict : Is growing at v the rate of 2500, children annually. In ' support of the measure Mrs. Summons stated that ' the Parent Teacher associations 'of the state and the teachers were a unit in favor of this meas ure, that it had been tried else where and had proved a valuable prevision. The bill provides for the ' ap pointment of a director of re search' and guidance, to head the newly created departments. A large part of the argument pf those opposed to the bill was that It would not be neces-t scary to legislate school super intendents and- teachers into ac tion since there was plenty of machinery available at present under which th's separation of children could be. made. SHARK WITH OTHERS (Written for "Share with Oth ers Day" of the National Thrift Week, by W. T. Milllken.) One day 11 walked with an old farmer across the beautiful acres which he had reclaimed from the wilderness. When we reached the line fence we stood looking back, acrors a vista of 'meadow and pasture and fields of waving grain. - Then the old ( man said, more to himself than to me: "I'm getting old, and I'll not be here much longer. When I came every foot of this farm was forest. It meant lots of hard work to clear it away." But I have the satis faction of knowing that I have done my bit to make it easier for those who, come after me." Few Think of Others How many are thinking today of those who come after them? A notorious bill wasj before a certain legislature. Had It passed it would have mortgaged genera tions yet ttnborn. Temporarily it might have given relief to a hard situation. Speaking to, one ot it advocates, the - writer called? his attention to its effect upon pos terity. His answer was charac teristic. It was. "Posterity v be hanged! What do I care for pos terity? I want a little of the good things of life, for- myself while I live, for I will be a long time dead." And this is the attitude not only towards posterity but towards society in general that Ms expressed by certain types of hu man philosophy which number many followers. !-' Good Citizen Sacrifices p The good citizen Is willing al ways to sacrifice personal advan tage to the honor of the team. The undesirable will not play un less he can star. Our courts and prisons are full of men who have never learned how, or who are not willing to play the game.

On the day that he died in his 86th year, John Eliott was found teaching the Indian alphabet to a little child. In answer to the question why, he did It, he said: "I have prayed that God might make me useful; in '., my sphere, and .now that I can no longer preach, he leaves me strength to teach tnis poor child." John Newton said: "If, as I go home. a child has dropped' a half-penny, and by giving It another I can dry its tears. I feel that I have done . something.
