No jjerson who disregards or defies any law has a moral right to complain when others disregard the laws even those which all need f6r their protection. And when this attitude becomes action there is anarchy. , . Every infraction of law committed by any one is a blow at the foundation of all law and order. And if the example of lawlessness is furnished by a citizen of generally good reputation it is taken as an invitation to disorderly persons who care not for law and order to imitate that example. ; The laws in this United States represent the will of the people in action and if the majority do not like any or all of hem there is provision for their repeal. In fact the quickest way to bring about an unsatisfactory, law is through its enforcement. f The stability of our government depends upon the intel- igent thinking and good behavior of individuals. And the genuinely thoughtful, patriotic citizen will not go about con demning the laws or break them either in private or in public. " - 4 . ' FROM DOCTOR MALTHUS TO DOCTOR PUSEY Dr. William Allen Pusey, president of the American Med- '. icah Association, believes the world is approaching a time I wherein there, will be -a mad struggle for food and much starvation. He says in part: ,;j . ):;'- .-Vv" ..; ; ; "With the earths' population increasing, under the favor ; able conditions of modern civilization, at an unprecedented ' rate, with the frontier advancing so rapidly that thej hospit able parts of t ie earth will soon have been occupied, with the - satucation point; in sight, beyond which the earth cannot afford decent sustenance for its inhabitants, the time is rap idly approaching when the problem of population will engage j-Rome- considerjation from even the less thoughtful .bf men. -What is to happen to the world's population is a question that "should now bej recognized and considered by the thoughtful. Mankind muse face the extreme probability that, wider the tl avorable conditions of life of present day civilization! we are rapidly approaching the point where the support of the popu latlon of the earth will be its most Dressintr nroblemJ -."No intelligent student of the subject bejieves that popu: elation, will continue indefinitely to increase with the rapidity "of geometrical f-atio but it requires noj particular gift oi proph .ecytd see that if the tendency of population remains uncheck ed we will soopa be upon a situation where an unsuccessful 'struggle for decent maintenance will have become the lot of inost men throughout the earth, as it is their lot now in the most densely populated parts of it. . "i "Let the situation develop naturally and the only relief for the overpopulation of the world lies in wars of the strong 'against the wek for a place in the sun, in pestilence and other ..'great disasters, and in the inevitable increase in the disease i-ate and the death rate that are sequences of the degradation and misery of overpopulation." - , ; : 1. This is the Malthusian theory redivivus j .: C It is an" appeal from Doctor Malthus to Doctorj Pusey Rev. T. R. Malthus, in the early part of the last 'century (he was born in 1766 and died in 1834), yras a political economist who held: Thiit population tends to multiply faster Jthan its freansof subsistence can be made to do, and that when this occurs the lowr or weaker classes must suffer from lack of 'food; that, unljess increase of population be checked by pru dential, restraint, poverty is inevitable, and that ths multi 'i'piying oi the population will be checked by poverty, vice, or some other caqse of suffering.' ' . But the Malthusian theory has not worked out, for the i reason that scijence is constantly finding new ways of jincreas- ting food products. The United States can easily maintain 1300.000.000 1 -people, without further discoveries : probably 6 500.000.000 or! more lonp- before such a necessity shall come. 1 The statesman is beginning to ;.Tex& wuldupjxwt . third of our present pojiufatfon.-'''"' STSSt ' Uregon could maintain in comfort a fifth 0 it.

Walter Ferguson, n writer of more than ordinary ability, says on the subject of "Clothes and Women' in the Portland News: "There is such a thing as concentratingtoo much upon mere clothes, and sometimes one wonders just what , the American woman is going todo'when she gets to heaven and finds all the robes cut from the same pattern. Being beautifully groomed and becomingly gowned is a wom an's privilege, but after all there are certain other things in ife which are as important as looking well. Acting well, for instance. :' ; . "We put such a strain upon our constitutions trying to keep young that there is now an alarming scarcity of lovely and gracious old ladies among us. We are either enameled like artificial dolls, or else we wear unhappy, haggard ex pressions because we know ourselves for ! frankly ancient dames who have lost the battle with age. j 1 "It is fast coming to a place where we think of little else save our looks. We make our wardrobe an idol "and worship our bodies as the heathens bowed down to the figures which they set up for gods. A new bonnet looms before us like a rainbow's quest, and our hunt for beauty takes on the im portance of a search for the Holy Grail. Personal comeliness has become a fetish with American women. ! For that, many of us neglect our homes, out children and our husbands. Worse still, we neglect the minds and hearts and souls with which God endowed us and which He surely intended, us to cultivate even more assiduously than we do our appearance. "And if you forget the greater thing for the less, no matter how perfect your features and form, you can never be really beautiful. That inner spiritual loveliness, the mark of true beauty, is never to be found in any beauty parlor." Bits For Breakfast I - Last week of hop picking . And schools will open a week from tomorrow .

OBSERVANCE TO THE LAW industry. Our loganberry industry is with out doubt capable of enormous ex paneion. What it'need3 is an or ganizing genius, capable of get ting the growers together and keeping them together, 99 per cent strong. ,i mm S Completion of an underground telephone ' and telegraph cable from New York to Chicago means that nothing short of an earth quake, vandalism excepted, may long interrupt communication be tween the country's two largest cities. The Cable will carry 258 telephone conversations and 260 telegrams simultaneously. It cost 125,000,000. ; The first half of .1925 has seed more automobiles made and sold in the United States than ever before,- according to the latest fig ures. As an indication'of our gen. eral prosperity, that isn't so bad. And as an indication of the grow ing - amount of enjoyment and plain, every-day happiness that the OATH OF OFFICE AND THE BIBLE The Salem district is to have the largest Lambert cherry orch ard in the. world. It is to have 320 acres. Encouraged by the successes of the past two years in cooperative marketing,, some of the leading members of the Salem Cherry Growers' association have decided to launch out upon a program of increased, production and general f'evelopment. The plan is to Incorporate a company, with 20 shares at $1600 a share, and lover half the pro posed shares I have already been taken, or spoken for. There is no doubt of the! rest being taken quickly. The name of the pro posed new; company has not yet been decided upon, but this will be done soon, and the company Incorporated and organized and put into working order.. The lo cation of the proposed . biggest Lambert cherry orchard on earth is not yet ready to be announced. The Salem Cherry Growers as sociation did very v. ell last year in marketing the Lambert and Bing cherries of its members. They also did well this year, the price of cents a pound net having already been distributed to the grower members, and there being enough money on hand to make a further distribution of around a cent a pound. "Marlon Quality" Is the name of the brand, which has been regis tered, and which will be used in the future. . ; The orchard of the new com pany to be organized will be cultl vated and : sprayed and fertilized according to the best known meth ods, and the Intention will be to produce a quality fruit, worthy to top the market in the big cities The Marion Quality brand tht vear topped the market every where, against all comers against the best cherry districts of this part of the United States. A quality black cherry cannot be grown outside of : the Pacific northwest.' The whole country is the market. The cherry crop is more sure than almost any other fruit in this locality. The labor necessary to. cultivate, harvest and ship is usually plentiful, as the crop comes on at a time when there is little else to interfere or to require a great amount of labor. j The president of the association Is O. E. Brooks; Max Gehlar is secretary, . and George Vick Is treasurer, and all these growers, and most of the other member growers of the association will have stock in the new company, as vill some others outside of grow ers. jfrom an Investment stand point. i There is no. doubt but the grow ing of quality Lamberts for the big city markets will always he profitable in the district of which Salem, the Cherry City of the World, is the marketing center. Cost 'selected at random from 1000 reports In various parts of the state relative to the average cost of the adjusting of head lights to comply with the new state Uw show the average cost to be $2.07. CXwta from 200 re ports In Salem show the average to be $2.19. twelve cents higher than the state average. To date a total of 39? adjust ment stations have been authoris ed and when all applications have been acted upon It Is anticipated by Sam A. Koser, secretary of state, that there will be between 450 and 500 stations.

TOIMV AT THK IILIC2H Til RATER u Trie firstl duty of an American citizen is to obey the -Constitution and laws of his country. The emphasis bf today is upon the enforcement of the law more than upon obedience to it. There should be more emphasis upon the duty Of every citizen to ober the law. ' Officers who neglect or refuse to , enforce it as jthey have sworn to do choose . condemnation jfrom; the law j abiding; citizenry and deserve loss of; official "position and other exemplary punishment. - : , S " But officials are prone to take the prevalent disregard lor law as indication that the public does not desire; full ert f orcement and so for this reason they sometimes fail to do their full duty in enforcing the law.f A ";v vjv.; f ' . Law breaking is expected from the , lawless and from Ihose indiffett to the rights ; of others And if , law, break ing were confined to these types of citizens the necessity for "Stressing theieed of law observance would be less than now. They would bfe under constant surveilance and repression. r The class! of people who weaken most the laws arid who make enforcement the most difficult are those who, 'because thay do not like the laws, disregard them and by expression if their contempt encourage others to do likewise; i - j Disbelief; in the law though affecting the of fencer and f ometimes used by; him as an excuse is not justification for hi.- wrorisdoipsl'-To leave to every individual the prmle c - There is no law which requires "the. use of the Bible in presidential inaugurations, but this simple act of faith in God and reverence for His word on the part of Washington estate lished a precedent which has been followed in each of the thirty-four inaugurals which hive taken place since the first inaugural.. Formerly it was customary for the clerk,' of the supreme court to open the Book at random, but in recent years presi dents-elect have selected for themselves the passage of Scrip ture to which they desire to press their lips a seal to theif sacred obligation. , - ULYSSES S. GRANT Ulysses S. Grant selected as his passage of Scripture in his inauguration. Isaiah 11:2, 3, which reads:,, ': , v' "And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, and the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord; "And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the Lord; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears. WOODROW WILSONWoodrow Wilson also was fond of the Psalms, and he chose Psalm 119:1 and Psalm 46:1: "Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the way of the Lord." "God is bur refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." . " JAMES A. GARFIELD James A. Garfield chose Pro verbs 21:1, as follows: "The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord, s the rivers of water; he turneth it whithersoever he will." i t CHESTER A. ARTHUR Chester A. Arthur selected Psalm 31:23, 24, as his passage: - : ! r .. . ; "O love the Lord, alLye his saints: for the Lord pre serveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. "Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord." l Oi I ". . . ;:) t : CALVIN COOUDGE Calvin Coolidge, the 30th presi dent of the United States,. sealed his sacred oath on March '4 by pressing to his lips the first chapter of the Gospel of St. John a chapter which made a strong impression on his mind when read r a chi!d at Mjrr.cthers' kr.' V " ' Empress' of Japan Takes Care of Own Silk Worms TOKYO The Empress is as much devoted to sericulture as are the numerous women of Ja pan's rural districts. There is special co-coonery constructed in the palace : compound and. since the beginntng of this spring, the Empress has personally busied herself with taking care of the silk-worms and feeding them' on mulberry leaves. j - The transfer of the matured silk-worms to the cocoon beds of the royal cocoonery will be made shortly and it is estimated that the cocoon yield this year will not be less than SO bushels. By order of her Majesty the cocoons will be taken tQ the Tokyo Silk Reeling school to be converted Into silk thread. When this Is done the silk ! skeins will be sent to the Higher Technological . school at Kyoto to be carefully woven Into Habutae.

Is a double standard in work any more fair than a double moral standard? YOU start your daily work between 7:30 and 9 in the morning. But your wife begins an hour or two ahead of you. You take an hour or more off at noon but during your noon hour she's cooking and doing dishes. Around 5: or 6: in the even ing you are thru, and you come home for an evening's rest in comfort. But for your wife Its more dishes more work when you are resting. You have a complete day of rest on Sunday. But for the wife. It's Just another round or the same old household routine. ' And Then Comes Wash Monday Then comes Monday morning -and washdsy for your wife. A day of drudgery mnss. slop, stooping .lifting, bending over a back-breaking washboard, rubbing her knuckles raw. A mussy, disagreeable task YOU would never accept. Steam filling the. air she breathes, ex posing her to colds and grippe. And while she is slaving away at this drudgery, you spend the day at the office, store, shop, or factory, .sur rounded by every labor-saving device which makes for greater output with less time and ef fort. Don't you, feel Just a little guilty, when you come home Monday evenings? Frankly, do . ; ' . ; - you EXJOY coming home as much on Monday evenings as on other evenings of the wk? Is your wife as cheerful, as full of life, and energy, pep and inter est, after a hard day over the wash-tub? Your Wife Deserves This Freedom A thousand OTHER women, right here in Salem, now enjoy complete freedom from wom an's hardest task. Your wife deserves this freedom.
