Your support will be appreciated. ... . when I heard the voices of - the horsemen coming down the lonely wood lane. '' Then, still obeying the instinc tive Impulse of concealment which had seized me at the sound of the second voice. I swiftly moved to the tree against which Dicky's car rested, seated myself there In such a manner that the machine almost concealed my presence and adjust ed my hat so that its brim droop ed over my forehead. I thanked my little joss that my 'hat had a brim, and that it was not the hat I had worn in the Catskills. With some autumn branches in my hand I made a pretense of stripping 1 the . leaves ; from " them, but had. to stop all movement and grip the branches tightly to still the trembling of my hands. "Remember, Anton For, if my ears and my. memory had not ) deceived me, the some what servile voice of the second approaching horseman was that of the man Smith, whom I had last seen in the CatskiU mountains, and who -was now a fugitive from the justice which he had so mys teriously, escaped that memorable night when our fishing party had discovered the ' wounded ' trapper in the reservoir grounds. If it were he, I knew that the servil ity was j only assumed, that the arrogance of the man .was only concealed, his cunning working swiftly and surely. . ; K - And then the two men on horse back moved into my view from the recesses' of the forest path, and from underneath my hat brim I looked furtively at .them. , The first man I 'knew, in the casual, friendly fashion of the countryside, as the "big man" of the neighborhood, a retired farm er, wealthy, public-spirited, re spected ! and liked - by - his neigh bors. That he could know .any thing' of the real personality of Smith if the second man really were Smith was, of course. 'un thinkable. And that the relation between them ; was that of kindly efficient master and new servant, I gleaned from the elder .man's words as they rode toward me. "Remember, Anton, the ' one thing above all others which I will not have Is brutality to .ani mals," he was saying. "If dis charged the man just before you for that." ; . : ;. 'i. "I will remember," Anton said slowly, and then his eyes fell on Dlckys ' car, and I saw him start unmistakably. I wondered- if, with the keen perception which I guessed to be his, he had recog nized . the car, having remember ed seeing it upon that night which had seen his exposure, :'--U'- A Swift Decision. : For I had convinced myself now that beyond alt doubt the: man, Anton, evidently a new man-of-all-work of my neighbor, Mr. Biggs, was the same man. Smith, who had been the opulent auto crat of the CatskiU mountain re gion in which he had his barri caded estate. And yet, barring their height, which 1 the man, An ton, made less by appearing slight ly stooped, there was little; out ward similarity between the two. Smith had been a commanding figure, erect and broad-shouldered, with a ; well-fed appearance. This" man was thin, almost to emaciation, and his clothing hung loosely on him. Smith's appear ance , had been that of a scrupu lously fastidious man, accustomed to luxurious bathing appurten ances, who would almost have died rather than appear unshaven, a man with many changes' of clothing. . l '- liDEK' bTflNDflROIZED CASH STORES w t - wdSS SALEM WOODBURN ALBANY CORVALUS SUIVIIVIER NEEDS As fche warm weather advances we put forth a special effort to; supply our4 trade with the test, obtainable in seasonable fruits and vegetables.

GILLE DISSENTS Editor Statesman: Under the , caption, "We De mur, ' you stated tne position oi your paper in last Sunday's issue relative to the name "Parrish for the new Junior High school on North Capitol street. Coincidently, there was published on another page of the same issue the com plete address of Hon. Chas. B. Moores at the noonday luncheon of the Salem Chamber of Com merce on the previous Monday Published under the title, "Mem ories of Old . Salem That Will Evoke Smiles on the Lips and Bring Tears to the Eyes of Many Pioneers," the address of .lar, Moores was replete with vivid early day recollections of the BDeaker: a bishlv interesting and witty restrospectlon Of "his boy hood days in Salem, and of bme of the Important historical tncl dents in which much' of our fair city of today find origin. In the course of his address Mr. Moores gave an account of an incident wherein an effort was made to change the name of Sa iem. "In the early '5X)s," -he said, "while struggling to retain the capital, Salem came very near losing her name. In 1846, when the town was formally laid out, Rev. J. l. Parrish, after whom your Junior High school was re cently named, insisted upon the retention of ht e name "Che- meketa, by which it had previous ly been known. This was opposed by Dr. W. H. Willson, who sue cessfully urged the name 'Sa Iem.' " I agree with you, Mr. Editor, in your contention that Salem can 'af ford to honor the name of'Mr, Parrish, and I believe there are none of those opposed to the the name, was taken at the insti school," who wouldnot also agree with you, but I question this as beinz the proper means of be stowing such honor, h The action of the school board. In adopting the name, was taken at the insti gation of one taxpayer, according to the records of the celrk of the board. Such aetion has seemingly proved to become a harbinger, of dissension and unpleasantness which should be entirely foreign to the administration of our pub lic school affairs.

That may not be too late, with our usual June rain3," but it is late enough. . " Talking of flax and linen: Here Is a -bran new item, never before published: Henry Ford is raising flax, and he has for some time been experimenting with the mak ing of linen for his car coverings, instead of cotton. He proposes to raise the flax himself, and to have his experts get out the fiber, and spin and weave it. He can use coarse fiber, such as can be pro duced in Michigan and Wisconsin, and in Canada. He will not need the fine fibers,' like those produced in the Salem district, and neces sary for fine linens. He expects to cut in half the cost of his cloth for his car coverings, and of his upholstering tow for , the seats. And what he expects to do, he will do.' .. . This is of great interest to the Salem district for this reason: Henry Ford will find 1 a way to make American machinery for the spinning and weaving : of flax. And he will likely develop a num ber of Bhort cuts that the world has been waiting for these 6,000 years. His experts are at work on this problem now. And another thing: Henry Ford will find that if he can cut in two the cost of his car coverings, by using his own manufactured linen cloth, instead of cotton cloth, that he will at the same time make such coverings as will outlast cot ton made coverings three to four or more to one.

This fine emotional actress has made several trips to the coast with .Walker Whiteside. . , - Colleen Moore Is 1 Tomboy in "Painted People" at Oregon Rudolph Valentino can claim the title ."the screen's greatest lover." " Norma Talmadge is accorded the distinction of being probably the greatest emotional actress in the movies. William S. Hart stands out as the most dramatic of those por traying western characters. But to Colleen Moore, who ap pears today in ''Painted People" at the Oregon goes' the title of "the screen's one and only real tomboy." " She has been "tomboying" . it almost since her advent into films five years ago. She ha3 been a "tomboy" representative of almost every nationality. ; .. , She was "tomboy" -Irish in "Come On Over," and an Indian "tomboy" in "The Huntress," -a typical eociety "tomboy" in "Flaming Youth,"- and in "Painted People. She is again portraying an American "tomboy,", but one essentially .: different from ber "Flaming Youth" characterization. In this picture she is seen in the leading role, that of aoydenlsh girl of the ; poorer section., of ; a typical American town, the ring leader of all the deviltry of the neighborhood, and the best base ball player in the district. Directed by Clarence Badger the cast of "Painted People" includes an array of popular screen i ers, Including Ben Lyon, Char Merriam, Charlie Murray, De 'Grasse, Joe Striker, Mary den, Russell' Simpson, Mary ( June Elvidge and Anna Q.
