- The executive committee of the
Salem Community Hotel corpora
tion met Monday for Its regular
finnrt In th T. Vf C. A bulldinr.
VTm.' MeGIlchrist, Jr.. chairman
and Growr W. Hlllman. associate
chatrman of the citizens eommii
hm kins' formed reoorted
satisfactory oroeress. This asso-
iHt MmmtttM will ha composed
of 10 of Salem business and professional-
men. It Is expected
. M nrritnliltlon will be
completed within the next ten
days.
nw-.nr W Narblad. asso
ciate chairman of the executive
committee said;.
"The traveling public today la
accustomed to demand up-to-date,
modern fireproof hotel accommo
dations, and one of tha outstand
ing needs of the city of Salem Is
just sueh a -hotel.
"The pmblic today Is traveling
today not ao much from city to
elty aa from good hotel to good
hotel. I have been In practically
very capital city in the United
State and Salem la probably the
only capital city that does not
nave a modern, fireproof, up-to-the-minute
hotel. Salem ta one of
the most beautiful capital cities
In the union. It Is on the main
highway and should hare many
rlsltors. The Tarlous state in
atitutions aud state departments
now bring many rlsltors to the
city who are looking for Just such
hotel facilities. Better hotel ac
commodations will bring mora of
these guests. Salem cannot hope
to keep pace with other cities In
thla vicinity until this need Is
met.
Strategic Time to
Build Says Hicks
T. M. Hicks, general chairman
of the movement said: "There
probably will never be a better
time to build than Just now. It
la conceded that the costs of
building materials are. generally
lower today than they hare been
for years and that building can
be done now at less cost than for
a long time. It is estimated that
this new. fire-proof hotel build
tor will approximate a cost of
$250,000. and that about 1150.
009 win go directly to labor. The
other $100,000.00 will be spent
largely in Salem for materials
and supplies. .
"We belieWe that this project,
in addition, to meeting a serious
peed In the form of a modern
tire-proof structure, will do much
to advertise Salem. Every citizen
will benefit as substantially all
of the coat of the building, both
labor and supplies, a total of ap
proximately $250,000 will In turn
be redistributed to the merchants
business men of the city.
The Beat meeting of the execu
tive committee will be held in the
Y. M. C. A. building tomorrow
noon at 12:11 o'clock.

Is Just what "Dough Boys"
turned out to bo. It is a laugh
from start to finish and the laughs
are free from dirt.
Keaton has a very pleasing
voice almost a surprise for it is
sensitive and full of nuances of
tone. The contrast to his poker ex
pression is outstanding and almost
disturbing.
Cliff Edwards with his singing
and "uke" and his natural fool
ishness makes a perfect foil for
Keaton and Kaliy Eilers adds
beauty and Inspiration for much
of the nonsense.
The incidents are all in the
course of army life as it was. A
rook squad of men which hardly
reaches a trained perfection be
fore the war is over makes the ex
cuse for all the laughs.
It is good to sea Keaton again
and he has a splendid running
mate in Edwards.
