sum.
Will Pay For Themselves
Each machine will pay for it
self every little while, by the sav
ing on fiber; by the greater per
centage-of high quality fiber re
covered from the straw, and by
the higher priced product i deliv
ered for the market. To say noth
ing of saving on labor cost.
There will no doubt be some
short cuts found in operating the!
machines. It would be strange if
thi3 were not done, in this inven
tive American setting. But the
principle of the operation of the
machine is correct. And withal
simple. One wonders why it was

not invented before, at some point
along the way back 6000 years to
the beginnings of the flax indus
try, in Egypt, and in the Bible
lands. But that Is true of every
great invention. Each one Is sim
pie to the Inventory and to most
other DeoDle after the trick is
turned.
A Lot of Things
A great many things are sure to
follow the installing of this auto
matic scutching machine. It will
mean the easy handling of 3000
acres of flax to be planted this
year, against the 2000 acres of
last year for the state flax plant
The same as to the 4000 acres
that will probably come next year
and the 8000 acres that will be
grown for the state within a few
years. And the growing of addi
tional thousands of acres for pri
vate account, to be finished in lo
cal scutching plants all over the
valley, by free labor.
For the state flax plant, this
will mean more retting talks. It
will mean more room for drying
the retted flax. It will mean the
extension of tho walls around the
prison at least the enlarging of
thtf srttek"des, in order to have
more room to carry on the opera
Lions of the industries there. It
will mean the erection of an office
building, in order better to accom
modate the growing business of
the industries there. They run up
above $1000 a day now, for seed
and cow feed and fiber and tow
and agricultural lime and all the
rest. The business will double, and
double again, and then keep on
mounting. The limit will likely be
SOlmj acres of flax for the state
llax plant but there is no pre
dicting what the limit will be for
the state lime plant.
The pri.son machine shops are
working now on the making of 10
new flax pulling machines, for
use in harvesting the crop of this
year in addition to the 20 mach
ines now in this district. No tell
ing how far this may go. Likely
4tthe flax pulling machines for

"THE OETOUR" FINE
PLAY WELL HANDLED
Moroni Oisen Cast Pleases
Jn Veracious Story of
; American Life
By Roxella Bunch
A! packed house witnessed the
delightful presentation of Owen
Davis' clever drama. "The De
tour'f at the Capitol theater by
the Moroni Olsen players last
night.
This play. one of the best
American dramas vividly depicts
the narrow attitude toward life of
the inhabitants of remote sections
of the older states.
Charming Janet Young might
be called the "leading lady" of the
play only that that terra is too
limited for her remarkable versa
tility. Miss Young has appeared
in character roles from that of a
child to a grandmother. In the
production last night she took the
part of Helen Hardy.
Moroni Olsen portrayed Steptten
Hardy, a farmer who had become
a slave to his land; whose one
goal in life was the acquiring of
more land.
Perhaps, Mr. Olsen is best de
scribed by the adjective "big." He
is six feet three and one half inch
es in height. His acting, too, has
a quality that can best be de
scribed by this one adjective. Al
though he has a most generous
attitude toward his fellow players
he dominates the scene complete
ly when he steps on the stage and
speaks in his deep, resonant voice.1
The daughter of this couple
Kate, was portrayed by the lovely
Dorothy Adams who won all
hearts when seen here last as one
of the twins in the presentation
of "The Lilies of the Field."
- Byron Kay Folger appeared
once again' in the character roles
which he does so admirably. Last
uight he took the part of Tom
Lane, a neighboring farmer whose
numerous troubles and tribula
tions added some exquisite humor
:o the production.
; The work of Mr. and Mrs. La
nont (Gordon Nelson and Leora
Thatcher) was noteworthy.
Other well-known members of
the company who had prominent
parts included Harry R. Allen
(Ben Glenney: Joseph E. Wil
liams (Weinstein); and Thomas
Osborn (Jake).
"The X)etour" concents a fam
ily living in an isolated commun
ity. The mother, blessed or cursed
with a Jittle education, regrets
having given up her girlhood am
bition that might have led to a
great career as an artist, to marry
Stephen Hardy, a farmer. Denied
all cultural expression for herself,
she lives in the determination to
see her daughter advanced in the
career that she, herself, gave up.
To this end she scrapes and saves
for years to have th enecessary
sum that will enable Kate to study
painting in New York.
The love element enteis into
the story in the person of Tom
Lane who hag chanced his all in
the building and' equipping of a
garage to cater to the ever-growing
tourist traffic. At the same
time Stephen, the father, whose
ambition is to acquire more and
UJ.more- land for as he says he

is tarn, gives It to Tom Lane, who
Is thus enabled to satisfy his
creditors.
K&ts, the daughter, finds hap
piness In her awakened love for
the boy and the others are satis
fied each in his own way. Even
the mother finds some solace in
commencing ggain to save for the
graciughter who hasn't been
born yet. that she may have the
opportunity that her mother re
fused. An undercurrent of simple
humor born of comic lines nad sit
uations lightens the seriousness of
an otherwise ecthralliug drama.
The end of hte play left the
audience with a feeling not quite
of satisfaction, and with an ache
in their throats for the mother
who sacrificed so much for a
dream which proved in vain.
The players have been brought
to Salem under the auspices of the
local Lions club. Those who were
privileged to view the play last
night and the previous production
of the season, by John Hastings
Turner. "The Lilies of the Field"
ar eeagerly anticipating the nex
appearance in Salem of the Moroni

It It regmtable, but tn; that
tSTeften Mr. Average Citizen,
ing a broken wire, s dangerous
hole tn a sidewalk or street, or
some dangerous obstruction In a
street, Is inclined to say to him
self "O, well, that Is none of my
business. Bomeoae whose business
It Is to do so. frill take car of It"
and very often that "Someone"
does not come along until after
there has been an accident.
It is surprising In how many
cases during the recent storm we
were not advised of broken wires
until our own men saw them in
th course of their work, whereas
hundreds and probably thousands
of other citizens had seen the bro
ken wires before our men came
along.
Of course in most cases we were
advised soon after the wires fell,
by citizens who were public spir
ited and thoughtful, as you were.
Again thanking you for your
cooperation in the matter, we are,
