M' Initratinor the Watr Plant- PiirrIift rUNICIPAL ownership of Salem's water plant will not fftnta hmnnrli tVo mtv munoi'1 rtA 4-Via matrni TViaf seems to be well demonstrated. The axe of the mayor seems always ready to block the steps toward that end; and if not the executive veto, then the council buckles under the load. Acquiring" the water plant will need to be done through exer cise of the initiative. Moreover it may as well be tested on the direct proposal to issue bonds in sufficient sum to pay, for the plant as on the piecemeal plan of first issuing bonds to finance an appraisal. Either the people of Salem are ready to buy the plant or they are not. If they are then they will vote the bonds required to effect the purchase. If they are not, then they will defeat the bond issue.

HENDRICKS, editor emeritus of The Statesman, has a very fair and considerate statement of the San tiara highway situation in his column "Bits for Breakfast" in this issue. On one point he is in error, and that is in refer ring to the road as crossing Minto Pass. The route crdsses at what was formerly known as Hogg pass, which was on the Jine of the old CorvaHis and Eastern railway. Actual grading was done on the summit This pass is located to the south of Three Fingered Jack. Minto pass is located to the north of Three Fingered Jack. The Minto trail left the north fork of the Santiam at Independence Prairie and followed Marion fork of the North Santiam to Marion lake and thence over the low divide. This trail now leads to the Jack lake road ending at the ranger sta tion on the Metolius below Camp Sherman. The road does follow the Minto trail up the north Santiam as far as the mouth of the Marion river, and so the name of Minto natur ally attaches to it. The old Santiam wagon toll road crossed the divide near Big Lake. We understand the survey for the new Santiam highway passes to the north of this, using the old Hogg route around Hogg butte, over the divide about where the Skyline trail now crosses, and on down to Suttle Lake and thence to Sisters. So far as the Marion county court and the Salem cham- of commerce is concerned there is no particular race as to which fork of the two west ends of the road should be built first. Linn county will spend what sums it has available on its fork, and Marion county will spend what moneys it can appropriate on the north fork Marion county does want the north fork recognized as part of the state highway sys tem, so that the money it expends will be matched with for est service money when the same is available. The request is reasonable, is not prejudicial to the southern route, and we believe it will be granted unless the opposition is inflamed or the highway commission antagonized. In case the North west power project goes through, the power company will require ;a road along this route as far as Independence Prairie and this would no doubt speed construction of this section of the road.

A delicate child should ha dressed for the weather. Tht clothing should be warm enough on the cold dara and lirhtnr clothing should be worn oa the warm aays. A cold on the chest is ont of the most common ailments of young children. Wetting the feet, exposure to cold and insufficient rlnthlne. ar fatnra ttin be overlooked. They are danger ous for almost anv child. There cannot be too much said about the advantages of sunlight in the early spring and summer months for the rrowinr child Tha early summer days seem long In deed to tne school child. He wants to get out-of-doors. Every moment oi toe time possible a child should be out in the fresh air and n tin- shine. On the first warm days a child may be fretful and peevish. He should be carefully watched to set if there is anything serious tht matter. If underweight, your doc tor should eee tha chilt and toll you what to do. An nnderweiehr child afcnnM have plenty of nourishing food, the best of milk, cereala frnlta and vegetables. Not only do these supply rood, but they give him those vitamins so neeAosarv r growth and energy. Not only must ne nave tne out-of-doors and sun shine, but also plenty of rest as well. Rickets in children Is an ail. ment that beein with nnrfor. weight. Before the trouble prog resses, have judgment upon your child's diet and general health. Extremes of weather, either hot or cold should be a time of great care to keep the children from "catchiag cold," or from becom ing overheated. So In the warm days dress a child so he will be comfortable, and oa a cold day keep him protected -with plenty of warm cioines. Answers to Health Queries S. M. A. Q.

What IS the row about? in very brief, and sketcbriy, tht situation It this, as th Bits man understands it: The South Santiam road has been on the highway man from the b- aTlnoing. It has been completed -to uatcadia, hair the nvotey of its cost having been put up by Linn county. Bat there la still a diffi cult and expensive part of It to be built, through the forest re serve; say 30 to 40 miles of it. -a Marion county Is a later comer. This county tpplied two years ago to bate her road put on the for est reserve map, and lately to havt this part of the proposed highway put on the state high way map. And Marion county backed her application with $100,- twt Direr after the program for this year's work had been made up. by the highway commission, so no more money was then avail able. The Linn county part of tht road having been on the highway map for a long time, the state highway commission was In a Quandary. So the matter was left up in the air and the state high way commission has been accused -of the offense of not letting Mar ion county spend her own money; her 3100,000 offered. Now, the members of the high way commission are friendly to Marion county. The matter in dis pute wm no doubt be adiusted toon, to the satisfaction of all reasonable men. Another thing: WTest of Sis ters, the proposed highway will De a common one, to both the south highway in which Linn county is especially interested, and the north highway that concerns Marion county particularly. That sweuon or tne road (west of Sis ters) Is receiving some attention. in the way of work being per- tormea tnis year. This is speeding up the program for Marlon coun ty as well as Linn county people me Bits man is still In favor of both highways, but he thinks tne nortn branch, in which Marion county is Interested, should be given the greatest and earliest consideration, as soon as difficul ties Can be Ironed out. Why? Be cause it ls needed by a greater nnmoer or people, and will be used by a larger number, than tne souta route. Why again? Because more peo ple will go to and come from the lower vauey than from the upper valley. And this will be especiaUy true in tht winter season, when for several months each .year the McKenxte highway Is blocked by now and wlU alwara he. aa far aa any one can now predict.
