V V V : Says a Salemlter When f you meet temptation, ; turn to the right. ' Some one in Minneapolis - who took the trouble to count asserts that 17 men died in that city in 28 days as a result of drinking poisonous liquor. And what chance have the rest of us against stuff which can kill even those hardy Swedes? A distinguished economist de clares that prices will be falling in this country for the next 20 years. Is this a threat or a prom ise? If they are to keep dropping for two decades Fords ought to be pretty cheap in 1945. V r V Uncle Sam has surely a sweet tooth. More than $1,000 worth every minute was the rate at which confectionery and ice cream were manufactured In 1923. Cen sus bureau statistics disclose. . Con fectionery valued at the rate of $1,000,000 a day and ice cream at more than $700,000 were re ported by manufacturers. When a country can spend this much an nually It is pretty good evidence that the country is prospering. An eminent dramatic critic broadcasts an article in praise of our telephone girls. He insists that divers and sundry parents would do better by their daugh ters did they place them In a 'phone exchange rather than In some expensive finfshlng school. In the big cities there are schools where switchboard applicants are taught to be pdlite under all cir cumstances. A maiden under such upbringing makes the finest kind of a life companion. The drift in telephone circles is strong ly toward the amiable and sweet voiced maidens who preserve their savoir faire under all circumstanc es. They grow gracious and tact ful In their own right and readily adjust themselves to any situa tion. Such a girl is worth her weight In gold. The problem of the office is to keep them, for there is a waiting list of eager men looking for just such life mates. : . , " ! ' S A man's sympathy for a mar ried woman merely expresses the thought that his own wife did very well. s J1 , ; EDITORIALS OF THE ; : Frank Willman Going Away ! Editor Statesman: I At first appearance this article may seem to be not appropriate to the purpose of your Editorials of the People, in that it is not of a constructive character; but when considered in the light of praise for the citizenry of Salem and all else that has gone. is. and is hoped for in its future, then it mav qualify. First in the nature of a swan song, let me quote Antonio and then tell the reason why. J "And even there, bis eye being big with tears, turning his face. he put his hand behind him, and with affection wondrous sensible he wrung Bassanio's hand: and so they parted." . I Thirty-four years now Salem has been my home; reasonably the riper and the longest half of a generous lifetime, and now I am moving away; truly with keen re gret. for the only reason that ' it will bring pleasure to others, J , Whatever has once given us pleasure is remembered long, and recurred to often as we pass down the journey of life to the gray hairs and solitude of our last years. Love has been Jo every one the source of both.
