Dr. E. E. Fisher Heard at Weekly Luncheon of Sa ' lem Lions Club Social evils ami their effect up on society was the subject of an address given by Dr. E. E. Fisher to 'the Lions club at the Friday luncbeon. This was the first of a series of educational talks that are planned for the future. Dr. Fisher is a recognized authority upon this subject. "Climatic conditions are deter mining factors upon the human race," he said. "In each man and woman there is a tendency to pro pagate the race, though the present-day tendency is to insist this Impulse." Factors contributing to and pre disposing causes of social evils were said by Dr. Fisher to be fast living, which increases the nerv ous tension; the present dress of the .female with low necks and short dresses, intended to excite the curiosity of the male, and un favorable stimulation by the mov ies; moonshine; and the indulg ences of parents toward their SOCIAL EVILS ; IRE DISCUSSED ; ' lW pmm vwf The Countess was the queen of desires she possessed them all.

Narcotics do not increase carnal desires by stimulation, but serve to take away any responsibility and honor the user might possess. The character of dances, particu larly where these are not under proper control, was discussed, and those outside the city limits came in for their share of criticism. That he was called upon at least 25 times a year to treat cases cf illegitimate pregnancy, was the estimate made by Dr. Fisher, who pointed out that each of the 32 physicians in the city has about the same number, to the host of his belief. Disease is responsible for a great many state patients, he said. Approximately 25 per cent of the inmates, of the state hospital were declared to be there because of syphilis, and' between 23 and 30 per cent of the inmates of the blind school were born sightless because of social diseases. Par ents of a large portion of those in the feeble minded school were de-. clared responsible for their con dition. A conservative estimate that 3 peV cent of the people of Salem were infected, was made by Dr. Fisher. "Development of character and backbone in children Is the only real solution to the problem," Dr. Fisher declared in closing. Prof. J.' C.

Silverton ' High Basketball Team Defeated Here; Last Night 35 to ; In one of the worst drubbings that has ever been given to a vis iting team, Salem high school de feated the Silverton high quintet in a basketball game last night by the score of 35 to 2 in the high school gymnasium. ; It was Salem's irreproachable team' work in floor passing; and dribbling that won the victory. At no time was Salem's goal threatened for niiore than an in stant and every moment that the Silverton men had the ball the game was appreciably 'sloweri The only weak department in Salem's playing was the actual basket shooting which ws not quite up to a par with the passing. Silver ton did not oven get an opportun ity to exhibit its prowess in basket throwing for Silverton men did not often get in position to try for a basket. Fallin, Drager ana Patterson were the outstanding Salem play ers. In the very first minute of play Drager dropped a ringer for the locals. In the matter of points Drager shared honors with Fallin; both of these men taking; 11 points. . ! In the third quarter of the game Starr of Silverton made the vis itors' lone score. Silverton men were given more than 10 free hand throws but failed to convert any of them. A crowd of approximately J00O persons witnessed the game. A large share of this number; were Silverton supporters who motored to Salem for the game. This evening the Salem team will meet the Newberg quintet on the local floor. Two weeks ago Salem defeated the Newberg team at Newberg 23 to 11. One of the best garae3 to be played on. the local floor wil be between Eugene high team and the Salem; team Tuesday evening. Salem fans are expecting to see one of-the best fights of the year when these two old rivals meet. The lineup for last night's game was as follows: Salem (33 Silverton (2) Nash (2) G . . . . . .Starr (2) Fallin (111 ...G Klrscher Drager (11) '. . .C ... . .Borrerick Patter'n, c. (8).F..

A Tickets on Sale at Smith's Cigar Salem Boys' Chorus Is Name Parents Select By a. vote of parents of boys In terested in the chorus directed by Dr. H. C. Epley it was decided to call the group the Salem Boys' chorus at a meeting held at the YMCA last night.. Mrs. John Harbison was elected president and Mrs. J. O. Brown secretary of the organization. Pleading for more, boys at least 100, Dr. Epley outlined his plans for the year. "Just give the boys. That Is all I ask," he said. Under present plans the boys will not be taken on any long trip and probably the one to Portland will take them the farthest away from home. A few concerts may be given In neighboring towns in addition to tbe big annual con cert. A large group of boys met at the YMCA last night for the week ly rehearsal. Tenor and bass leaders are being taken by a few older men who are interested In the boys. Dr. Epley will make an earnest effort to obtain eight or 10 men who will turn out-regn? larly and assist in this work. In addition to the singing, the boys are getting a drill team in shape, under the direction ef Bob Board mad, physical director of the YMCA. Borah is against a soldier bonus Legion members shouldn't let this make them too optimistic. H OREGON . fjt ' . "f ' 1 . . .
