"Whoever invented the slogan their uncle, W. W. Elder of Stay ton, was the excuse for Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Wilson and family of Long Beach, Calif., to stop In Sa lem last night. They have been spending the past two weeks touring the coast as far north as Vancouver, B. C, and are now 'on their way home. Wilson is en gaged in apartment business In Long Beach. They stopped at the Marion last night and will motor over to Stayton this morning. Whoever invented the slogan describing Salem and vicinity as the most wonderful country in the -world, certainly hit the nail square on the head," was the opinion R. E. Toner, commer cial man, expressed after visiting Salem Thursday. He was at the Senator, and left last night for Seattle. Toner says that many people in the east, especially around Iowa and farther west to Montana, think of Willamette university as a theological sem inary. Charles E. Smith of Gates, and Rosalie G. Boatman, of San Fran cisco, were quietly married at the New Salem hotel Thursday and will leave this morning for a weeks honeymooning at Tach ats, where they will make their home.

Maurice Chevalier, prince of personality,, sings two of the hit songs in Paramount' new-show-world film festival, "Paramount on Parade," each of the numbers having been written especially for his talents as an entertainer. The first of the numbers is "Sweeping the Clouds Away" the econd Is "All I Want Is Just One GlrL" "Sweeping the Clouds Away," is given a spectacular setting. Ern est Lubitseh, who directed both of Chevalier's numbers, took the Pa risian songeeter and the scores of dancing girls who appear with him to the house-tops of Paris and even into the ekies, via a colorful rainbow, during the course of the lyric. The number was filmed en tirely In technicolor. The second of Chevalier's songs, "All I Want Is Just One Girl," is Introduced by a typical Cbevaller Lubitsch skit, played with a subtle humor reminiscent of "The Love Parade." In this skit, Chevalier appears as a Parisian gendarme. on duty In a park where lovers are wont to go. TAKIMA. Wash.. July 8.

August 15 Set as Date to Start Production of Fibre Board in New Plant Here - Without much of hurrah, the Western Board Products company is soon to start production of a fibre board in Sa lem, with a daily crew of 35 men employed and with a mar ket, as yet untouched, as a .source for continuous expansion. Financed principally by local capital, with D. B. Jarman as the principal supporter of the new industry, the company bids fair to be a thriving, prosperous concern within a shori time.

Bunding Finl&hed For the new 411.500 plant of the company has just been fin ished by A. E. Siewert on the six acre site near the state fair grounds, much of the machinery is here and partly Installed and an adequate supply of raw ma terial will be continuously available. A digester, which is a rotating, tubular shaped "cooker," 30 feet in length and eight feet in diam eter, is to be shipped from New Jersey July 11 and as soon as this arrives and is installed, produc tion can be started. Mr. Puttaert, who has spent 45 years in connection with paper board and similar manufacturing says that Salem is Ideally located for the plant.. Shrives obtained from the scutching mill at the. state flax plant as well as screen ings from'the pulp from the Oregon-Pulp and Paper company here, furnish the raw material for the plant. In addition, Salem's water supply Is adequate to serve all the needs of the factory. When operated with three shifts dally, as Mr. Puttaert pro poses to run the plant as soon as the newly installed machinery has been tested, the daily production, will be eight tons of the fibre board selling to the distributors at 80 and upwards a ton. Many Orders on Hand Puttaert says he already has many orders at hand and a con stant stream of Inquiries for more information on the board he is to produce. For building construction, for boxes, for ship ping containers- and a score of similar uses, the fibre board has a wide demand and yet produc tion in the country is said to be comparatively small. The new plant completed this week is 60 by 175 feet in size with two addition buildings add ed to the equipment. These are a boiler room 30 by 40 feet in size and a storage shed 30 by 60 feet in size. The manufacturing plant is of one story with a full base ment below for storage vats and for storage of material. When manufacturing begins, the raw material will first be placed in the digester where it will be cooked under 75 pounds of steam pressure. Mixed with proper chemicals, the fibre is heated into the right constituen cy for board manufacture. It is then dumped from the digester and is shoveled into the beater. After the fibres as here divided, they are earried Into the base ment and stored in a 10,000 gal lon capacity tank. The fibre is then carried by a pump to the mouths of the two board ma chines where the fibre is rolled into soft board under heavy roll ers whose size determines the width of the board. Men take the soft board away from the ma chines and pile it on trucks, each piece of board separated by strip which allows air to circulate drying fibre board Is carried. By means of a circulation of hot air. the board is evenly dried in the 14 hours it stays in the drying room. The dried board is then sent through a series of sizing ma chines and later is cut to the de sired Jzo and tested for its thickness, different grades being sold. . Storage space provided in the. main floor will not be much used in Puttaert's opinion since the heavy demand will keep the board utilized about as fast as it Is made. A railroad siding has been built alongside the factory. Box Patents Valuable Mr. Puttaert, who is assisted as manager by his son, Henry Puttaert, has the patent on sev eral collapsible boxes which util ize the fibre board. He declares that he has oral orders for mil lions of these boxes for use In shipment of fruit and other pro ducts, once he can get them in to large production. The box is light, has great tensile strength. is collapsible and can be reused and yet can be made much more cheaply than wooden boxes. It is easily put together and can be thoroughly sealed by the use of only two nails. It is Mr. Puttaert's Idea that another factory can be built ad joining the plant of the Western Board Products company to take care of the production of these boxes. Mr. Jarman, leader In the fi nancing of the company, has been active in overseeing plans and specifications, along with Fred Thlelsen and other officers of the company.
