One with a vision.- One with unflagging, industry." OneSvho is entirely unselfish. One with organizing ability. Man or woman. ; , - There are a lot of good Methodists in Salem; 'arid'Cath- oiics and Presbyterians and members of all the other .churches, too. ' Buf Salem needs a good Methodist has a? vision like John J. McGroarty had when he was a newspaper reporter on his regular rounds in Los Angeles, and conceived the idea of the Mission Play for that cityandsecl6n r . r- Out of which conception has grown a great institution ; 'an annual pageant and play portraying the early history of ' California, and more especially the southern part of that Estate. V . . .. Mr; McGroarty is a Catholic. The devoted missionary ! Jeaders of lus faith had the greatest part in the early settlement-of that section. y The man or woman who is to make a pageant and play for Salem and its early settlement and for the Oregon country jniist be a Methodist. Jason Lee was a Methodist missionary. The Methodist missionaries started the mission school that became The Institute, that became Willamette University. ,JThe Institute. started Salem. t..jpity.grew up around it.' The Methodist missionaries, at old Chainpoeg, saved the Oregon country for the United States; were the deciding. factors in placing the Stars and Stripes instead of the British flag over what is now Oregon and Washington and Idaho and a part of Montana over all the country reaching from the British Columbia to the California -line, and from the Pacific ocean to the crest of the Rocky mountains. , ;. There was a Willamette pageant held here, on the univer sity "grounds, in 1919, in celebration of the 75th anniversary ' 29 ilin nV.l ' Tt ... J fui viic uju ociiuui. was guvu. And it should be an annual "P' A-tmember of - some other church might be"theJohn-Jv;Mc Groarty of the Willamette pageant. ' But it would be better to. have him or. her a. devout Methodist, filled to the finger -tips with enthusiasm and reverence for the history and ideals of that church ' As a Methodist would be a poor substitute for Mc ; Groarty and his Mission Play. People.; from all over the United States from Spain, Italy, France, everywhere, send money constantly to McGroarty, to be used in making the Mission Play and its buildings and equipment constantly, bigger and better Send the money to him personally; but it goes, every last cent of it, to the Mission Play and its extension. J That is the kind of a good Methodist Salem needs; the 'Oregon country needs, the United States needs- And all the world, for men and women from old Willam- l'iettemay be found in every country; on every mission field; in every walk of life. And they all look back to Oregon and to Salem, as well as to tjhe campus of the old school. """" "Here am I; call me." Those words were spoken of old time; they are familiar to Jew " Who is the good Methodist, man or woman, who will t, speak4 those words, and will of the first paragraph of this JUST TlUGEDY . v (The following is from "Portland Commerce," the weekly paper of the Portland Chamber With tfee largest prune crop ' , prior to the rains of the current week, and with a farorable foreign demand added to the tremendous buying power of the ' American -people,-prices hare been cut from can get little from his year's labor It la not the purpose of the Chamber of Commerce at this time to charge any one or group-with responsibility for the: demoralized market. It Is in order, however, to say that this miserable condition was wholly unnecessary. The case is one of failure to cooperate, of holding other affairs more Important than the price of prunes, of not "appreciating the 'supreme importance of sarin g. the Terr life of 'the Indiiatrv to th terrltorv. Oregon will lose from one to two million dollars through not pro jecting a fair price level. Many growers will Jose their homes, as the result ,of adding another unprofitable year to the series they have faced. " The great northwestern industry will receive another set-back in the long competitive struggle with the prune district of California California growers, 'with an opening price approximately 2 cents ahove that of the northwest, ill ationprogressiveness and patriotism to the vltaMntferests of their t Js all a mere matter of business. When the prune growers become tired of these annual losses and difficulties, when the business men appreciate tb general loss to the community . through such tiaseoa, when the whole state develops an Oregon consciousness for her real, vital interests, these tragic blows to , a producing Industry wlU not be repeated. 7 " I A man who ought to know x J. v Santiam. irrigation districts can furnish- irrigation water for ' l6o,o6o'acre of land, by gravity flow; and can guarantee the 'flqrwlri the dryest season, through the help of water cheaply i stored from Marion lake.7 This The Statesman has been claiming.

V High Society Film j . . Most people interested in the personalities of the, picture world look upon George Archainbaud as a Frenchman. However, the fam ous director, , whose latest screen, endeavor is First National's nw production, "What Fools Men," leng ago took out his final papers as an American citizen and -in plenty of time to play an import ant role in his adopted country's greatest military upheaval. When the world conflict inter rupted, his budding directorial ca reer, Archainbaud joined the field artillery of the United States anjny gcing as a second lieutenant to Camp Taylor, Ky., as instructor. The camp commander found his services as mentor so valuable that he disregarded Archainbaud's request to go overseas and kept him drilling recruits and con scripts. He trained and sent to the front replacement squads num bering 200 to 300 men every four or six weeks, and was responsible for the instruction of many thou sands of men during his service. Archainbaud has always given credit to his directorial experience in motion pictures for his knack in handling raw material for army service. "Wfhat Fools. Men" will be at the Oregon theater today and to morrow in which Lewis Stone is featured with Shirley Mason,-Da-vid Torrence and other notables in. the big -cast. The picture is an adaptation from Henry Kitchell Webster's novel', "Joseph Greer and His Daughter."
