HOME DISINTEGRATING ;
EDITOR TELLS ROTARY
Avalanche of Divorce Pointed to
by Senator Tooze to Prove .
" Point ? ,
Three speakers appeared before
the Rotary club at their regular
meeting Wednesday noon and fur
nished an interesting but crowd
ed program. Mrs. Winnie Petty-.
John, manager of the Better
Homes week program in this city
explained the merits of the pro
gram which was being offered. -
"Many of the unwise invest
ments made in homes of Salem
can be avoided in the future, if
proper educational measures are
undertaken. That is the main
reason for the Better Homes week
being offered," she said.
Senator F J. Tooxe, managing
editor of the Oregon Statesman
made the principal address of the
dyfPakjng on ;!TheHojneaJ &
Yesterday and'Today."' ' 5 :
"The home has given over to
the civic and educational agen
cies the rights which they should
retain." declared the speaker.
"The breakdown of the home is
shown by the avalanche of divorce,
which renders children homeless.
Formerly there was work for the
boys and girls in the home, but
the playground and athletics are
taking that place of today. I be
lieve every boy and girl should
have work to perform, duties to
care for, instead of being cared for
by the state; The school is creat
ing a time of idleness in the lives
of the children," Senator Tooze
said in closing.
Dr. Carl Gregg Doney, president
of Willamette, "a Rotarian, made
a short' address on his first ap
pearance at the club after an ab
sence of nearly a) year in the east.
