William Gahlsdorf of Sa lem, though not an Iowan by birth or residence, made the coffee, and gave the cooks such assistance as led to his adoption as a genuine Hawkeye. j GoTernor Walter Pierce was the principal speaker,; following the dinner. He spoke of farm condi tions that hae changed so great ly since the J pioneer Iowans marked out their black-land homes across the Father of Waters, and set out to feed the world. "They found a world ready and able to buy, as fast as they could get transportation' said the gov ernor. "But today, the nations of Europe, that used to buy the Iowa farmers' products are bank rupt, and. cannot buy Iowa food though they starve for lack of it. A new adjustment of producer and consumer all over the world is in process of settlement since the World war, an adjustment that has hit the Iowa farmer, and the Oregon farmer, . and farm life everywhere." ' .. : ' : .The speaker disclaimed the be lief that all things are bad. He inserted that the world, and the world's people, though they have changed their ways, and their habits of haircuts and clothes, are sound and wholesome today.

Cockatoos, parrots, canaries, magpies and many varieties of songsters are her guests.

Hiss Pope ' en- 'Tft 5FF MAMMA- -r-- tertains ' many of the same birds every summer when their, owners go away to the seashore and mountains. She has kept the bird hotel for years and says it is the most . interesting business in ' the world, though she admits her guests are sometimes as temperamental -as human beings.- r r It looks as if "Home, Sweet "Home might soon be only a tradition in this city , of kitchenettes and table d'hote restaurants.

Out of some ten thousand girls who were asked what they hoped to -become, only twenty-five said anything about marriage.' , ," j Of this twenty-five", one added, "And I'd like to have six children." Five out of the remaining twenty four announced thai marriage would not interfere with their having other careers. ,Many wanted to be .ac tresses, but mostly they leaned to ward "Big Business" careers, where, they noted, the "salaries are large and the opportunities practically -unlimited.- i This is a story.

Harry W. John son, pastor of Central Congrega tional church. ' "It happens that I had a friend drive through from Nebraska this summer. He told me .that from Wyoming on he was warned against the Salem tourist park."' " . My. Johnson brought in a paper from the little town of Oakland, Neb , This town has a population of 2,000. The business men fitted up a tourist camp in the city park, put in a $17,000 swimming pool and all the latest conveniences. This park was turned over to the city. The .business -men did this as ' a business proposition. - It Is considered a fact that nothing In a city pays better in dollars and cents' than a' tourist park, and that Salem has neglected itapark unintentionlly, but the demand" for its improvement will doubtless be imperative. ; ' -u ! i Three World Champions Training in -pneCjty :, ' '-f,:-r-r.'

The state has already paid out $9,059.76 on orders from Marlon county flax 'growers -to pay for their flax-pulling j help. This, however,! is but , a small portion of the pulling charge for all the flax grown in, .the valley. This item alone -should run up to be tween $30,000 and $40,000. As this is strictly a labor bill, and against it .no counter-charge of feed bills or team hire, it -is an important item for the working people of the. valley. ' ' The, state already has about 800 tons of .flax stacked out at the penitentiary, and almost 1000 tons In, the Rickreall and prison Warehouses. This is about pne half of the estimated crop. Not all the flax is pulled, so the yield can be only -approximated. About 80 'tons a day is being, hauled in to the state Btackvyardi, IB II. . ,, . ..
