IpglSpJ I I T LGOt -fUH "2 So -TUN' PIJINS AND SPECIFICATIONS FURNISHED BY SPAULDING LOGGING CO: Salem, OregonTelephone 1830 Busy Readers' Newspaper ( (Continued from page 1.) architec us, to prepare a recommendation for one or the other. Declaring that "doubt should be resolved in favor of the exercise of the right of the people to initiate a law if they :so see fit" and urging that "privilege of a citizen should not be taken away by a narrow or technical construction of the law," the supreme court in an opinion handed down held that initiative petitions filed in support of the so-called hydro electric measure sponsored by the Housewives Council of Portland, contained a sufficient number of signatures of legal voters to warrant the measure being placed on the ballot at the general election in November. The opinion was written by Justice Belt with Justice Burnett dissenting. Intense opposition to proposals that would reduce parking limits on Salem strets from two hours to one hour, as out lined in a new ordinance pending in the city council, broke out Vihen four petitions were circulated among downtown j business men in an attempt to head off the move to curtail I parking hours. BRAVO, BARKING DOG, PROVES HIS COURAGE (.Continued (ram (e 1.) - my wrist and six or seven feet long. I picked this up and struck the snake over the back. It is very easy to kill a snake. One does not need to be afraid of snakes if they see them. A shake cannot jump unless it is coiled, and it cannot jump sidewise. A blow over the back will break its back and then it cannot run or jump, it is almost helpless and ' easj' to kill. As soon as I struck it, Bravo caught it by the throat and soon killed it. When streached oat it was over 10 feet in length. When I told father about it he said, "Bravo is a good dog, he knows how to stand by the post of duty. Learn a lesson, my boy, from your faithful dog." One of our neighbors had a big dog ; a terribly big dog, by the name of Bounce. He was, a great big white dog, a mongrel, I think, but one of the largest I ever saw. He had a perfectly terrible voice, and his barking could be heard for long distances. But Bounce, was absolutely useless. He was good for nothing. He was not even safe to play with. He would r6 bounding over the fields, barking like some great fierce monster, and everybody in the neighborhood was afraid of him. You would think to hear him bark that he really was after something worth while. His own .master could not get - and useful work. out of him., for he was not even a watch dog. I remember there was a man in our neighborhood by the Dame of Bill Simonds. . Bill was one of those men who had a big voice and made good use of it for his own enter tainment. I remember father one time saying. "Bill Simonds makes me think of Bounce." The neigh bor to whom be was talking laughed. I have thought of it since, :ini I guess father was It it was in the mid-summer when the wheat .was to harvest. Bill was th best eorn-husker in the country. In the autumn when the men went out to husk corn. Bill was the -champion wheat binder, for we bound the wheat r by hand In those days, i'idwaya Bill waa the best hand when we f : went h to the house at meal time. " 'There bo fould really -outdo all tber. u; was jut a big trag. . EverjrhWS fciiew lie v.as-, and paid lilttts aitenii&n' to what he safd. " ' Tere aj another man In onr Plan Number 405 Compactness Is Feature of Home Plans neighborhood 'by the name of Stokes, Ben Stokes. Ben was never a hand to say mqch, but you could always depend on him in a pinch. He would -never leave a Job until it was finished- He would never fail when things .went hard. He could always De mount ed on when needed. ; One day when I had bem say ing that I'd like a certain job that was really too hard for me, and saying I could easily do- it, and boasting of my Ability,, lather. fi nally said, "Alright, you may do it." ! .... I had not been at" it long be fore 1 1 found that' it was not. so easy as I thought,' and I panted to give it up. I told father thit I guessed it was too much for me, and ! he said: . " ? ' "Brag is a good dog. U lii&J on is better." 5 j v I had to stick to If until it'wa: finished, but it taught n& a?Tef lesson, and I thought about Bravo and Blue Racer. , ' 1 With a ground space of 28 by :$0 feet, today's houise plan is one ideally adapted for a small town lot or for ttse as a rottage at the bea'h. While but on bedroom is provided for in the plan, a wall bed in the living room makes that room an auxiliary chamber for emergency use. One of the features of the house is its general compact ness, and especially in J he ar rangement, of the kitchen. This room is 8 feet by 6 Inthes by feet and is designed for use with the minimum- amount of walking by the housewife. .It will be notice! that th aink is directly under the window where ample light is provided for such culinary operations as are conducted in the sink or on the adjacent drain boards. The dining alcove is adjoin ing the kitrhen and at the front of the house. TheJ kitch en, dining -alcove and ' enclosed back porch, with a built-in ice box, form one unit of the house, a unit which is separ ated from the rest of the rooms. 1ILUMETTE RELICS NOW 1 NEW HOME Exhibits Moved From Third Floor of Eaton Hall to Balcony of Gym New headquarters for the Wil lamette university's museum were completed last week on the bal cony of the gymnasium there. The museum exhibits were for merly' kept on the third floor of Eaton Hall, but the room there has been remodeled to make two classrooms. Remodeling work has also been done in the business office there A portion of one of the flassroomp was partitioned off to make an addition to the business office, thereby increasing its capacity. Work will be done on the lawn and grounds this week. They will be cleared up and grass seed planted on the part now plowed up! i Further repair work will be made on Lausanne hall and other buildings later. j Halik ft Eoff Electric Shop. 337 Court St. Everything i electric, from motors and fixtures land sup plies to wiring.

'Si ; - . : Forty years of bad luck have been the lot of Walter Well man, but his efforts to con quer the pole by airship and cross the Atlantic in the air, failures though they were, captured the imagination of a young man to whom Wellman appeared as an epic hero. That was in 1907 and 1910. So when Wellman was recently jailed for inability to pay a debt, the young mart, H. M. Jacoby, now a successful banker, sent him funds to cover the indebtedness. Well man and one of his ill fated ships appear above. J ' . ' r, .
