The city should meet more than half way the people proposing to put in on the north mill site a paper botf and specialty factory. Itwill no doubt in time employ several thousand people. - , -..

As an author his descriptions of bird and animal life are vivid, interesting and "instructive.

Their author has lectured before thousands of audiences including schools and colleges throughout the country. ' There is need for men. of Finley's stamp on the game and , on the fish commissions--men who have practical and scientific knowledge of game and fish and who have the courage to fight for the interests of the state. He defies political threats . and ignores political expediency for effec tiveness in the discharge of of ficial duties. ; The upheaval in the game department of the state upon Finley's entrance as commissioner was inevitable. Both the warden and his partner in the conduct of private commercial fish ponds, knew of the accusations which made their posi tions with the state ridiculous and untenable. Even failure of the Clackamas county grand jury . to convict the warden of stocking their private ponds from government sources did not stop the accusations nor change the attitude of the public toward officials engaging in private business which is co-related to I the official business for which the state expects exclusive service; ' , ' Clouds hung ominously over the commission's official horizon a long time before W.

V i Some of the leading Mennohites of the Salem district have for a long time been looking forward to the establish ment of a college and Bible school in this city, to draw support and patronage from all over this section, for there is no insti tution of the kind now on this coast conducted under the auspices of that church organization. During the past several weeks, information has come of an; encouraging nature, looking to the consummation of the project. This will, if the work shall result in success, give Salem further standing as an educational center. If the people of Salem generally help the local Mennonites in their efforts, they should be quick to extend their aid. ... . ! - Germany is giving the lie to those . spreading booze nroDaeanda by claiming that prohibition is not gaining.

BRAZIL DRAWS JAPANESE . TOKYO Japanese immigration to Brazil is increasing; according to the authorities of the Immigra tion company, which announced that 1,300 emigrants would leave for South America soon. It is ex pected that approximately. 3,000 Of course, the news of Mrs. Durkee's danger, which Katherlne must have riven her. was the reason for' the sudden transfor mation. Mother Graham Is genu inely fond om Mrs. Durkee, but outside of that fact, her sterling qualities of soul, tested many times is our lite together, always rise to meet an emergency, and I knew that she would' let no ran cor of her own stand Jn the way of extending aid to our, old neigh That another less lofty motive was. behind her sudden change of mind I recognized - with a little smile, which I was most careful to hide from her eyes. But I have had so many amusing experiences of her childish curiosity and love of excitement that I knew she never could have endured being shut up In her room while any thing so absorbing as litUe Mrs. Durkee's illness was on hand. Come Into the library.' Her voice" 'and' the' accompanying ges ture with which she 'swept' me with1 her out ot the kitchen, was so reminiscent of my childhood's thrilled terror for Alice, that I al most put my hand to my neck to see if it were firmly fastened on The White Queen's sanguinary command appeared the only log! cai sequence of. my majestic mo ther-ta-law's demeanor. "'What is this about Mrs. Dur kee?" she demanded sharply, when she had closed the library door behind us, . and although was sure Katherlne had told her everything save my summons. of Dr. Braithwalte, I dutifully retold the' whole story. She listened without comment until the end then asked, the question which was dreading. "Who's going to operate?" "Alfred is anxious to have Dr. Braithwalte" I said, hoping that nated with Alfred, "and at his re quest, I have Just wired Edwin. "Look at This House!" . , That I had succeeded In aston ishing her, I knew by her startled exclamation: ""-': -What!" But when I had repeated my statement, she looked at me stead ily with narrowed eyes. "You don't need to tell me that Alfred Durkee thought ot that all by himself. It never would enter his head that any one so famous and important as Edwin possibly could come clear out here. Only somebody who knew that Edwin purposely now keeps part ot his time free could ' have originated that. If you thought of it, it's mighty queer you couldn't take time to mention it to .me. and . if it Is Mrs. Bickett'a idea I wonder at her.' There was In her voice the lat ent suspicion with which most mothers-in-law view the business or professional associates of their chUdren's life partners. Nothing is -more deadly In its possibilities ot Injustice, so I hastened to shoulder all the responsibility of sending for Dr. Braithwalte. "There's no use trying to fool you, -is tnerei'. -I asked with a forced little laugh. "It's true that did mention Edwin to Alfred, and he was wild over the ldea In an instant. But I don't, see any harm in my doing It. Edwin's about the biggest man in that line there Is, and Mrs. ' Durkee certain ly Is like one of our; family ! "I do not need to be informed concerning my son-in-law's profes sional reputation," my mother-in- law interrupted Icily. "I am per fectly familiar wlthr it; nor do I need to be reminded ot my duty to Mrs. Durkee. Of-course, Edwin wUl come to her." She stopped short and glanced around with a look only too fa miliar to me. ! "Bless my soul!" she said in an entirely different voice. "That means both he and Harriet will come on here for a visit, and look at this house! It will have to be cleaned from tbp to bottom." She whirled on her heel, loudly cry ing: ' '- :" "Katie! Katie'.

A certain theatrical troupe, aft er a dreary ana unsuccessful tour, finally arrived in a small New Jer sey town. That night, though there was no furore or general up rising of the audience, there was enough hand-clapping to arouse the troupe's dejected spirits.

" - K. Y. Kit. - WILSON "BEUEVED IN EVOLUTION . t r: 4 ' u " ; In 1922, when; he was living in retirement in VVashingtori, Woodrow Wilson wrote a letter to Prof. W; C. Curtis of the University of Missourf.in which he expressed his opiniori'on the theory of evolution.) "May it not suffice for meto'sayin reply to your letter of-Aug. 29," the famous war president declared, "that; of course, like every other man of intelligence "and education, I do believe in organic evolution. It surprises me 'that at this dateuch,craestiQns should be raised:. It Is interesting to note in this connection that Rev." James Wood-1 row1, the uncle, for whom Wilson was. named,, was dismissed from his. chair "at Souths Carolina College and Theological Seminary for teaching evolution. This wag when Woodrow Wilson iwas" still in his' teens Although, Rev. Woodrow was reinstated the case was reopened late and he withdrew per manently from the seminary. Woodrow Wilson, who .was ( then a "student at Johns Hopkins university, was highly indig nant over the way his uncle had been treated.
