A NOVEL but practical bath
inc uod has been invented bv
a man in Michigan which has many
advantages and no disadvantages
as compared with the excavated
pooL It may be made with or with
out roof.
It is modeled after the Roman
Hippodrome and may be built in
any size desired. The center of
this "bowl" is water-tight and con
stitutes, when filled, a swimming
pool: .
All around this bowl are placed
the dressing rooms and stairways,
and the roof of these rooms be
comes the runway made water-tight
like the deck of a ship. -
"This type of pool is recommend
ed because of its economy and efli
ciency." says Mr. Bradley Trrell.
"We urge all organizations who are
contemplating building swimming
pools for l!t!4, to immediately get
the j)lans for such a building an
this so that estimates may be made
and a great deal f construction
work done during the open weather
this winter. If this Is delayed un
til spring," says he, "a great deal
of the season will be wasted before
it can possibly be put into opera
tion." I
Less than half of our boys and
girls have any facilities for swim-'
ndng. It is too late to learn when
the accident occurs. ,
Every school grade shorjd teach
swimming and no aUe-bodied
youngster should . be allowed to'
graduate without being able to
handle himself safely In the water,'
and there should be sanitary pools
enough to accommodate every man,;
woman and child in America.

Mr. Claude Townsend. After the
cards were put away the hostess,
assisted by Mrs. O. L. Scott, serv
ed a delicious tray supper and
the remainder of the evening was
spent with Informal chatter.
Those who enjoyed the evening
were Dr. and Mrs.O. L. Scott,
Mr. and-Mrs. F. Turner, Mr. and
Mrs. Claude Townsend, Mr. and
Mrs. S. C. Kightllnger, Mr. .and
Mrs. John Spong, Mr. and Mrs.

Because of the busy Christmas

Tomorrow at the hour of one is
the time set for the AAUW cov
ered dish luncheon at the Y WCA,
a ad it is hoped that each member
ol the organization will be present
with a guest eligible for member
ship. The sectional committee on re
cognition from the national AAUW
will be the guests of honor for the
luncheon. In answer to a petition
for recognition sent from Willa
mette university to national head
quarters over two weeks previous
ly, the committee will spend the
day on the campus inspecting the
university to see if it is eligible
for the accredited list. The re
commendations of the committee
will be of much interest to the
graduates of the university here.
A short program has been ar
ranged for the meeting, at which
time Miss Helen Pearce will tell
experiences from her summer's
visit in Germany, and Miss Fran
ces M. Richards will speak of
Italy as she saw it on her contin
ental tour of the past summer.
At the present time the local
AAUW numbers only about forty
members but this does not include
all the women of Salem who are
graduates from universities on
A FEW DAYS AGO a woman asked ocr
assistance in repairing a certain electric
appliance.
It was an inferior appliance. It had been
sold ' to her by a salesman who burst into
town, "worked fast" and disappeared.
There was no one to reimburse her, no one
to make proper adjustment.
A local merchant would not have sold her
that inferior appliance. This company
which submits all types of appliances to care
ful testswould not have sold her that ap
pliance. :: . -
And if we had, by error, she could have
found us -like your other local merchants '
right here in town, ready and willing to rec
tify that error. f : " ; ;

A delicious salad oil
The most wholesome fat for frying
And an excellent shortening
You need a ffct as good as Wesson Oil to
make fried food as delicious, and wholesome
as fried food ought to be.
The goodness of food fried in Wesson Oil' is
due to the goodness of Wesson Oil pure,
delicate, good-to-eat salad oil. .
The wholesomeness of food fried in Wesson Oil
is not only because Wesson Oil is - wholesome
itself, but also because it can be heated hot enough '
to fry perfectly without burning. - -
At the right temperature for frying most fats
burn and "break down. Poor fat or this burned i
fat is not easily digested and is responsible for the
idea that fried food is not whdlesdme.. ButWesson
Oil can be heated hot enough to fry perfectly long
before it burns and with reasonable care the
food you fry in Wesson Oil is just as wholesome
and as digestible as any other way you
could cook it.
