MORE MEN ONlTHE PAYROLLS
The greatest need of Salem is more people on the pay
rolls. 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. - , -..
On Twelfth street, in - the big building that' was the
Southern Pacific hop warehouse, workmen Twere yesterday

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

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. ...

everything save my summons. of

"Who's going to operate?"
"Alfred is anxious to have Dr.

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.
