THERE are many persons to whom time means next to nothing. They will make engagements with no real thought of keeping them with anything like accuracy. Men. as well as women frequently show a- disregard for punctual ity that at times Is exasperat- Ing to those wnose ume is t- iuable. In order to una oui what Salem thinks ot those who never are punctual the New Oregon Statesman put the ques tion to several residents of this city Saturday. This Is how they see It: HENRY LAWSON, machin ist, said: "My "Say is measured Jn minutes. Each minute ot my working time Is wqrth money 'to me. Naturally I resent it when someone deliberately iwastes my time by failure to keep an appointment punctual ly. I find that most of those who do this sort ot thing are mentally lazy ftnd shiftless. That does not excuse them with me. I'd like to give them a good shaking. Of course I never expect women to be on time. Few of them know what a clock Is for and even fewer can understand that time means money to a worker." WALTER XAMKIN, clerk of the Marlon county circuit court, said: "I don't know of anything that gets on a fellow's nerves more than to have someone else behind time. If I have to wait for somebody elseor somebody else has to wait for me, then all that time is Just wasted. Punc tuality certainly is a habit that should be formed early In life." C. C. WARD, clerk of the Marlon county commissioner's court, said: "The man or even the woman who Is always late is a serious handicap to every one who has to deal with him, and is at a serious disadvant age himself. The day has pass ed when a person's time was his own." MRS. IVA B. MITCHELL, 675 Center etreet, said: "Peo ple should be on time with ap pointments and with any other thing that involves other per sons out of politeness. Keep ing others waltinjr , lsnt . very considerate." '-" DR. CHALHER LEE GEORGE, local dentist, said: "You shouldn't ask me .what I think about people who are not punctual. It .would Je:toe per sonal about - soneepr my pa tients." V.-"v', NORMA DETRIK, of the Gertrude J. M. Page realty of fice, said: I think, above all things, people should be punc tual to work." r . ' LILLIE HERRINQTON, of the Virginia apartments,, said: 'Punctuality is one of the main essentials of business -life.

(API The presidential campaign at last has reached its climatic week, with the candidates spurring themselves to a driving , finish as an agitated electorate impatiently awaits a turn at the ballot box. All of the country now has heard and much of it has seen one or both of the party standard bear ers and none of It Is reckoned to be ready to cast Its vote and as to the day of decision approaches Al fred E. Smith and Herbert Hoover have marked off the zones to which they will make their last direct appeal. Governor Smith now is on his chosen ground, bidding for th-i closely packed electoral votes of the Atlantic seaboard. Hoover, having stumped that area himself Is packing his bags for a journey through the border states, to halt at St. Louis on November 2 to talk again to the mid-west before going on to California to vote. Whatever may be the harvest on election day, both candidates are satisfied now with the turn on events. Smith has repeatedly, ex pressed his optimism that -av&reat democratic victory is. in store, ani Hoover lifted the ban against quot ing him long enough to predict overwhelming success and to warr his followers that the only danger at this point is republican over confidence. Others down the party lines are keeping up with the sea son of claim making.
