And the chief nrk-st-i tonW the silver nieces, and said. It is not

Mood. And they took counsel, and bought witli them the potter's
field, to bury strangers in. Wherefore that field was called, The
Held of blood, unto this day. Matthew 27:6-7-8.
THAT'S TOO BAD
! (Portland Journal.)
j "1 want a job, have good references'," read a placard which
dangled from the neck of Robert Hastie, who stood at the
jentrahce of the Waldorf-Astoria, New York, the other day.
J A wife and 14-months-old daughter were hungry in his
jhome. He had paid the landlord $5 on his rental account
that morning, and had left but $1 as his only capital.
j Limousines rolled up to the door of the hotel and the
flighting passengers eyed Hastie curiously and passed on.
jA few stopped to talk to him, usually saying, "Out of work?
That s too bad, and then departed.
"I ask no favor all I want is a job," he explained. And
though he stood there all day, no job was offered,
i Were you ever out of a job, with only a dollar in your
pocket and a family on your hands? There are more than a
! tevtof thrt. kind of jobless persons in Portland now.
Think it over. It is better to find a job for a jobless
human being than to conquer a city.
That last statement of the Portland Journal is a strong
one
But who says it is not justified?
When will society be so organized that any willing worker
may be able to find employment?
Under our present systems of organized society, with its
many faults respecting this prime thing for human happi
ness, it is a far cry to such a condition; and growing no
better. Growing worse, with the greater use of machinery,
and the greater shifting owing to new inventions.
Wfhere is the leadership that will point the way to a time
when there shall be no cases like the one of the man at the
entrance of the Wraldorf -Astoria ?
We must have such leadership to approximate the ap
proach of universal human happiness
And it is worthy of the greatest statesman who ever trod
foot on this earth.
Congressman Hawley, of Salem, Oregon, is now chairman
of the ways and means committee, the committee of com
"mittees of the house, and the committee place of greatest
importance in either branch of congress. He is the 44th
chairman of this committee in 139 years. Mr. Hawley is
also chairman of the present greatest of all joint committees
of congress; the joint committee on internal revenue taxa
tion, created by the revenue act of 1926. These are dis
tinguished honors for a Salem citizen, or any citizen. They
carry great responsibilities and entail untiring labor, and'
iney auecc in some way every person in the United States.
"Tm indeed, aloe yoa are
here.
Then there was another roice
a man's voice:
"Look here, Ralph, that man of
yours was not going to let me
come in; as if anyone could keep
your best friend out of the room,
when you have been bunged up in
this way."
Lynda aroseat the hearty voice.
A frown settled down on Ralph
Armitage's face. It seemed an ef
fort for him to say:
"Oh, I'm all right, but I'm glad
to see you. Hal. It was kind of
yoa to come. This is my secre
tary. Miss Fenton. She has just
brought my mail from the office,
and I made her"9it down where I
could look at her while she told
me the news. You see. I can't
more in this awful cast."
The tall, good-natured:looking
man said, by his knowing smile
which was speaking louder than
words. ias he glanced at Lynda
that there were compensations in
having shoulders dislocated and
ribs broken.
"You just naturally have to be
a hero, Ralph, don't you? Any
other man would have run over
the kid. and been arrested . foi
murder, but you simply ran your
car Into the ditch, and because you
didn't care a damn, whether you
killed yourself or not, Fate let
you lire."
"You're right. I don't care, Hal.
In fact. I rather hoped if I
thought at all in the second before
I lost consciousness that I would
take the count. But. as yoa see.
I only succeeded in getting my
self reams of publicity, as usual."
"And the prettiest girl I ever
saw to entertain you." eaid Hal
Galbralth. under his breath.
"I saw Pamllla. Sheston as I was
coming out here. Ralph, and she
wanted me to bring her with me.
I had all I could do to make her
understand that no woman was ad-.
niitted. She'd think I was an
awful - liar If she could see you.
Miss Fenton.
"I'm glad yoa knew better than
to bring that woman here." broke
'n Ralph, querously. "I don't
think I conld have stood her, and
this pain, together."
"Have you and Pamllla quar
reled. Ralph ?"
"No. not at all. I've Just grown
tired of her constant assumption
of possession, that's all."
Hal Galbraith looked at Lynda,
and a curious, one-sided smile
curled his mouth.

ORCHARD MEETINGS
ON THE WEST SIDE
a
inspecting the Demonstra
tions On Fertilizing of
the Cover Crops
Tomorrow and Saturday County
Agent J. R. Beck of Polk county
has arranged for Inspection meet
ings at the demonstrations being
conducted on fertilizing of cover
crops and the use of limerock.
These meetings are to be held in
the Brush college and Dallas districts.
Friday afternoon at 1:30 the
first meeting will be held in the
Fred Ewing orchard along the
Wallace road north of West Salem.
In Mr. Ewlng's orchard for two
years now various kinds of fertil
ising materials and nmerock have
been used to increase the produc
tion of cover crops. Limerock was
applied in 1926. and the fertilizer
has been applied each of the two
seasons, being put on in February
of this year. The fertilizers used
consisted 4t an orchard mixture on
one plot, superphosphate on an
other, ammonium sulphate and ni
trate of soda on others.
Three on Saturday
Saturday morning at 10 a. m.
a similar meeting will be held on
the Wes- Elliott orchard about a
mile south of Dallas. This also is
the second year for this demon
stration plot. Another attraction
on the Wes Elliott orchard about
a mile south of Dallas. This also
Is the second year for this dem
onstration plot. Another attraction
third meeting will be held on the
C. L. Crlder orchard one mile east
of Dallas on the Rlckreall pave
ment. This demonstration is one
showing the value of applying lime
rock to much of our soils. It has
made a remarkable difference and
one that Is worthy of attention.
From the Crlder orchard those In
attendance will be taken to an ad
jacent field where J. S. Edlger has
applied limerock and has since
seeded it to alfalfa and vetch.
Here also the results have been
very favorable. Everyone interest
ed In limerock should particularly
attend this meeting.
County Agent Beck states that
he will have the information 6n
the various applications on hand
so that all interested parties will
hi an onoortunitT to study the
results of these plots. Mr. Beck Is
extending a particular iutnuu
to Marion county orchardista to be
present at the meeting on the Ew
ing farm Friday afternoon. As
was stated above the Ewing farm
is about three miles north of West
Salem along the Wallace road.

The man. who Is understood to

the name of C. L. Huntington
while here. His favorite method
of obtaining money seemed to be
to approach some local business
establishment posing as a prospec
tive customer. He would event
ually decide to make a purchase,
but it would develop each time
that he had a check of rather large
denomination out of whlcn ne
wished to make payment. The
dealer would then give him a
smaller check covering the differ
ence between his purchase and the
face value of the check. This
check would be good, and he could
cash It anywhere.
While here Huntington bought
a stove from Woodry and Son,
passing In a check for $75. He
also rented a house from Gertrude
j M. Pare, endorsing over to ber
a worthless check for $50 and re
ceiving her personal check ror 91 &
in return. He had previously
made a five dollar payment In
cash, leaving Mrs. Page with a loss
of $10. The check whlcn ne
passed on her purported to be
made out by Bert M. Walker to
Huntington.

PEA D THIS FIRST:
Lynda Fenton, a singularly in
nocent girl, is private secretary to
Ralph Armitage. Her father, a
- drunkard, tells her that her moth
er deserted them, and that all
women have their price.
Lynda meets Emily Andrews,
who cherishes a secret fondness
for David Kenmore, Lynda's com
panion : from" childhood. Emily
plots against Lynda from the very
beginning. David tells Lynda he
teres her, but she dee'des she
doesn't : want to be in love with
any man. David is away on a
trip.
Lynda's father deserts her,
Ralph Armitage pays her artful
compliments, and Claire Stanhope
conies to live with her. Claire
tells of Innocent love for Fred
Blaque, a married man.
. Jane: Challer, who has annexed
money. Invites Lynda and Claire
aad Emily to a big party. It's
Lynda's first- real affair, and she's
enthused. I
Emily secretly sends David a
letter, suggesting that he come
home for the party, so that Lynda
may be made to feel at ease. Then
she sends him an anonymous note,
saying, "Ralph Armitage Is rushing
your girl.' David wrltee'to Lyn
ta. admonishing her to beware of
Ralph Armitage.
Ralph has met with a myster

Lynda Puzzles Ralph Armltaffe
Lynda waa walking without say-

her arm.
"Come back and tell me. my

all lost at once. Don't be too
sympathetic, Lyn, and try to mend
Ralph's worries by smashing your
own fair fame."
i- "Will you never be serious, Em
ily?" Lynda asked. "Can't you
realize that this is just business?"
"Yes. I realise that it is the
fcusinesa Arml Is most adept in."
Lynda passed on and entered
the car. When she felt her head
touch the gorgeous cushions, she
closed her eyes. What If what
rally was saying were true; was
she entering the path her mother
ted walked? But hen teemed to
be lined with "whits violets instead
f primroses, she thought, as ahe
aught the fragraaaw of parfuna
from a great bed of flowers, as
the car was entering the gates of
the estate. In a moment the car
drew up before the marveluos en
trance, whose carved marble had
been brought from Italy by the
elder Armitage.
A demure maid met her at the
door. Lynda handed the maid her
little old red hat that she had
pulled down over her shlnipg black
hair that morning.
By some miracle, at that mo
ment, all this magnificence faded,
and in her mind's eye she saw
David Kenmore at the other end
of the kitchen table, in her own
little house, helping her with the
dishes. ' She almost wished she
hadn't come. She wished she was
back at the old home, with David
wiping dishes.
As she entered the sitting room
of Ralph Armitage's suite, she
heard him say:
"Bring Miss Fenton in here.
Parker."
She followed the trim maid Into
he other room, where Ralph was
tying bolstered up with pillows, on
la magnificent Empire bed.
As she came In he tried to move,
but could not.
"Come over here, quickly." he
commanded. "You know. I've been
thinking all the morning of that
bed of white violets down at the
gate. You know they were my
mother's favorite flowers and I
rather hated to think I was such
a sentimental fool as to Imagine
that it was because you were com
ing. The air seemed laden with
their fragrance today."
He was very pale, and there
were drawn lines of pain about his
mouth; .but It seemed to Lynda
that his eyes had lost some of
their somber sadness, when she
came close to the side of the bed.
where she could look into his face.
"I do catch the fragrance of
white violets! I didn't imagine
it!" he said, triumphantly, as with
his left hand he clasped hers, and
pulled her nearer. "Lynda, let
me look at you. You see, I can't
turn in this confounded cast."
"I brought your mail, Mr.
Armitage," ahe faltered.
"Bother the mall!" Ralph Armi
tage exclaimed, carelessly. "Put
It on the table.' No, don't let go
my hand. You can reach the ta
ble on this side of the bed. Have
you missed me for tha last twen
ty-four hours? It has seemed
endless to me.
"Of course I have missed you.
