' MUST MOBILIZE THE CONSCIENCE OF MANKIND" i Those who' sponsored the presentation of "Pygmalion" here . this week : deserve the commendation not only from lovers of high class dramatic effort but of every citizen who desires dean, entertaining and 'elevating plays for ; this city. ' It is regrettable that it is usually difficult to I (attract sufficient patronage to make 'theatrical entertainniens of educational value a financial success while the cheap varie ties respond generally to "over-flow" houses. To change this condition and to develop in the commun ity ideals, appreciation for performances which will result in strong progressive character we should begin with youth. They are the future theatre goers, the future leaders and citizens of the community and state. It is a well known fact that boys and girls given the opportunity and encouraged to read clean, interesting, vigorous books of real literary and moral value do not later give themselves up to reading Worthless and meaningless trash. ' And so it is with tie types of theatrical entertainment provided. If taught to discrim inate between the really- good and the trashy anddegrading types of movies or plays the results will be very generally the choice of the best quality.'.; ' .!- ' . Hence the presentation . of the best plays and; moving pictures in this city and everywhere else should be encour aged. Schools ancl colleges should emphasize these better entertainments. Teachers should encourage the students to attend and even devote the following day's English class per iod to a review of the production. Natural expression may be thus obtained, literary and dramatic taste and discrimin ation developed. The wide-awake progressive instructor in English and Dramatics does not reward the pupils who spend their time and money to see "Pygmalion", or its equivalent, with criticism or zeros for English the following day. No and moral values in the life of the. pupil with the opportunity and moral values in the life of jthe pupil wth the opportunity to intellectually absorb and to reproduce through class ex pression the literary and dramatic content of a masterpiece well presented from the stage. ! The sponsors of these high grade entertainments should go a step further. And they should be encouraged generally in effort to obtain concessions for boys and girls both at school and at work to avail themselves of high class enter tainments. Such efforts are immeasurably valuable to the patronstnd to; the future citizenship of this, city' jbid com munity. believes there la some catch to the raaio:. !v - . . -.v. : . .. V:m', .V-;. ' A Salem bill board has in large letters. "Paint This Fall " and be neath it are these words screaming in type a foot high. "Keep that Schoolgirl Complexion." ' V Says a Salem philosopher: "A mule cannot kick wbile he is pull ing, and he cannot pull while he is kicking.; Neither can you." . W V The Salem Chamber of Com merce did a splendid job in both the first and second linen mills. The; next thing should be a beet sugar "factory. And, there are a acore of useful things that might be done -with... the. -dehydration plant, including a potato starch factory. , V V ' "Lore.' says a writer, "is the tyrant of the heart; it darkens reason, confounds discretion, deaf to counsel it runs a headlong course to desperate madness." Yes, yes, and as a rule ends in marriage and . a large bunch of children. Polk county is famous for swift justice. In the old days, it used to be even swifter than the present way. - . The United States government Is furnishing the barbed wire for the Oregon penitentiary wall, at only a cent a pound.

Instead of the ten percent called) for by -the board of directors. J The latter body have not yet deiclded whether or not the permission will be granted or whether they will take only the ten percent in order to avoid payment'of the seven per cent interest that is to be made as soon as the stock ia paid in full. 1 e board wUl! i meet i again about October 12 and it is likely that the matter will be settled at that time. At! the meeting. be board may also! take steps to wards the selection) t a manager for the mill, so thatUhe site of the project may be decided upon. , ."Let us cast off our hatreds. Let us candidly accept our treaties and our natural obligations of peace ..We know and everyone knows that these old systems, .antagonisms and relianee3n! force have failed.

We must "reaffirm and reinforce ourrancient faith in truth arc! justice, m charitableness and tolerances We must make our supreme cpmmitment-to the everlasting" spiritual forces dflifeT'We must mobilize the conscience of mankind." ,i The above are words taken .from the address of Presi dent Coolidge at the American Legion convention in Omaha NEW INVENTION SAVES MILLIONS A Lamp that Burns 94 ( Air A new oil lamp that gives an amazingly brilliant, soft, white light,, even better than gas or elec tricity, has been tested by the U. S. Government and 35 leading uni versities and found to be superior to 10 ordinary oil lamps. It burns without odor, smoke or noise no pumping up, is simple, clean, safe.' Burns 94 air and 6 common kerosene (coal oil). Tli' Inventor, V. M. Johnson, 161 North Union Ave., Portland, Ore., is offering to send a lamp on 10 days' FREri trial, or even to give one FREE to the first user in each locality who will help nim introduce it.

T- A FUTURE PROBLEM The farm population of the United States decreased 182,000 or approximately 6 per cent during last year, . At this rate of migration to the cities the final question will be, who will produce the food. Even Henry Ford with his pro posed mechanical bossy cannot produce thus all the if arm ancH orchard varieties. I Bits For Breakfast M " S . ' What' so rare as a , day in Octo t; ber. in Oregon?
