Dictating styles to women and then to make 'em like it
is.no mean accomplishment, yet is one in which J. W. Lillie,
deputy warden of the state prison, has succeeded; for the
nine .women federal prisoners at the penal institutionjvere
clad in uniform garments of blue gingham when they took
their daily walk Wednesday. , s .
Not only did Deputy. Warden Lillie designate the gen
eral style, but stood rpat for square-cut necks .while the
women requested that the necks be cut rounded. He con
ceeded his plan for only one pocket, and permitted the women
to have two pockets in the garments. s ; f :
While the outfits were completed a little late for the
general Easter revue, the inmates donned their new dresses
and started. parade, in charge, of Mrs. Tom Cornelius, ma
tron. When the plan for uniforms was first announced, the
women vehemently protested, but since the dresses arrived,
not only have they become reconciled, according to officials,
but are well-pleased with them. The female prisoners have
also been placed on the same basis as the jnen, in that they
are permitted $2.50 a month for luxuries instead of being
allowed to spend whatever amount they desire.

Eleven Trains Leave Tracks
Near Packing Plant When
Arch Breaks v
Twelve hours after an arch-bar
on a set of trucks wrecked the sec
ond section of No. 221, southbound
Southern Pacific freight train near
the Valley Packing plant north of
Salem about 3 o'clock Wednesday
morning, the right of way was
cleared and trains permitted to
operate over the main line. Eleven
freight cars were demolished with
a damage of $6,000. While the
wreckage was being cleared away
and the track repaired, trains be
tween Salem : and Portland were
routed through Silverton and
Woodburn. i . , .
Of the 11 cars, three were load
ed with feed, chiefly bran, three
with merchandise and five with
gravel. The equipment was badly
damaged and the loss is estimated
at $5,000. Merchandise to the ex
tent of : $700 was damaged, ac
cording to an estimate made by
officials while' the right of way
was damaged to the extent of an
other $300. ! The track was torn
up for 250 feet. ., . :
Thousands of Salem people vis
ited the wreck during the day, and
automobiles were parked along the
highway for several blocks.
The broken arch-bar caused the
wheels of one set of trucks to
leave the main line when the spur
track leading to the Valley Pack
ing company plant -was reached.
Had the accident occurred 100 feet
or so farther north, private prop
erty located just east of the tracks
might not have escaped damage,
i Wrecking cews were rushed . to
the scene and the equipment from
the north was able to proceed to
the station about 2:30 o'clock.
Mails from the north were de
layed by the accident. "

- Crude Drugs Now
The biggest crude drug buyer
in Oregon is in the capital city, in
the person of Dan J. Fry. whole
sale and retail druggist, with
headquarters at his Salem store.
280 North Commercial street.
He buys casoara bark, Oregon
grape root, Oregon balsam fir, oil
of peppermint, blue poppy seed,
and all other crude drugs that are
The country Is about, out of its
supply of cascara .bark, and the
price is high now. Mr. Fry is
paying 12 cents a pound for -the
peel of 1924, which is just being
started. This is for the dry bark
delivered. He has a warehouse
at Salem and one at Tillamook,
and he has agents all the - way
along the whole, of the Oregon
coast, from Clatsop county to the
California line in Curry, county,
and over that line in California.
Most of the peel Is from the moun
tains - in .the coast region, but
some of it comes from the Cas
cades. . -. i , :. - '
Oil of peppermint 'Is high now,
too. It Is $4 a pound, for the Ore
gon oil. This is $1.35 higher than
it was last fall. The country has
suddenly discovered that there is
not enough menthol, and the Ore
gon oil of peppermint is high in
menthol content; the highest pro
duced in the United States, hence
its brisk demand now, at a Very
remunerative price. It is also the
purest oil produced in the United'
States. :- .-:. : , .
' There has been a steady increase
in our acreage of peppermint, in
the Salem district. But this year
this is more marked than ever be
fore. We will have a 30 per cent
Increase over last year. We will
ere long have a million dollar an
nual crop, the way things are
going. ' i - !
And we will have' a peppermint
oil refinery in Salem, in order, to

port Shows Conversion
Theme of Speaker
" With the coming of better
weather, a much larger crowd at
tended the Demarest evangelistic
services last night, the tabernacle
being fairly well filled. It was a
thoughtful, singing crowd; the
congregational , singing was ex
ceptionally good. If the bad
weather had brought any colds,
nobody .showed 'It -in the singing.
The Bouth and east' sides of the
tabernacle have , been battened up
and drop doors fitted over the
ventilating cheese-cloth, screens,' so
that the room could, be kept com
fortable under pretty severe con
ditions. , .'. '. . . .
The devil gave up one of his
chosen instruments last night when
William Wright appeared in the
choir with his saxophone to swell
the choir music If ever the evil
one did claim anything more of
fensive than, a slungshot or a sui
cide pistol, it is the average saxo
phone which, i as it Is usually
played, is as obscene and. lecherous
as a bawdy house. But played
with real music and with clean
surroundings it can be a real de
light nd it was really that last
night. It helps finely in the choir
ensemble. ! - ,
One of the especially fine musi
cal offerings last iiight asY?' Yes
terday, Today, and s Forever,'
played, first by the orchestra, then
sung as a duet by Mr. and Mrs.
Demarest, then with the full choir,
and finally as a duet with the
choir humming the accompani
ment. , It was. a really splendid
presentation, j
It sounded better, Indeed, than
the financial "report. The collec
tion for Tuesday night, announced
last night, was only S 5 6, the small
est since the series began.. There
is still $984 to raise to cover
the fixed charges of the campaign.
A determined effort is to be made
to clean up the account on Friday
night with a special "offering
night." :! : ' -y ; : v:
Many Conversions
Wednesday night, just before the
regular services, the young people
met in Kimball school to organize
a working league for the rest of
the campaign. They are expected
to be a powerful adjunct to the
main adult committees! indeed,
most of -the conversions thus far
have been young people of school
age, and most of these have come
through their young friends' es
pecial efforts, i A mass meeting
for the children .between the ages
of seven and 14 years is to be
held at the tabernacle today at 3
o'clock, the public ehools closing
in time to allow the children to
reach there on time. Mrs. Dem
arest announced last night that
there would be no adults there;
she wants the children all for her
very own. They're lucky kids to
have so fine a friend.
r Conversion Topic ;
Last night Mrs. Demarest spoke
on Conversion.! "It is God's plan,
God's law,", she said, "and as such
It is unchanging. One has a right
to disagree with man's opinions
and theories; but this law of re
pentance and conversion must go,
as do all God's Saws. Science never
makes or changes laws; -it merely
finds ways to. uncover and utilize
them the laws go on, -unchanged.
Radio, .and . steam engines, and
airplanes are. old as, nature; the
principles , were laws since time
began, just as pod's law that man
must repent and be born again.
The laws are there, whether you
believe them ox, not. .It's no use
to air your petty, theories about
salvation any more than to try to
a rgue ou t o f .gr av ita t ton ; the laws
are established, and it is" for man
to. obey."," . r'.vf'
God has given to man , all that
even divinity can give, save to take
him by the back of the neck and
say: to him. ' You , SHALL be
good!" ItxIsup to man to accept
the 'gifts. ' The : man who . loves
doesn't say to the woman of his
choice, "You SHALL be my bride"
and take her j by : the throat and
tie her hand and foot; she would
not-.be much good to him if: ac
quired in" that way. according to
