He came into a hostile atmosphere at the legion convention, came riot plannine or-intendinor to sneak, and when he was provoked to speak in reply to the venomous and misleading remarks of Floyd Gibbons, Hearst correspond ent, he did so with a directness, a forcefulness and a convic tion which won applause before he was far along with his remarks. fTM Tb Li 1 . m ' ; . ,ine i-omana xNews-ieiegram, now busy merchandis ing journalistic poison, chose the day! of his appearance in the city to publish a lengthy personal attack on Hurley in connection with the discharge of Drew Pearson from the staff of the Baltimore Sun because Pearson proved to be one of the authors of a second edition of the "Merry-Go-Round" series which supposedly mirrors the dirt of Wash ington politics. The particular subject of the last book is Secretary Hurley. So when Pearson was fired the anti-ad-mihistration organs proceeded to abuse Hurley and the Bal timore Sun over Pearson's discharge.; No one who knows the character iof the Baltimore Sun would think for a moment that it Would fire a reporter merely for offending anyone in the Hoover administration. The Stfn is as independent a newspaper as there is in the sountry, one of the independents tht seem conspicuously anti-republLv.n. Hurley, if he did ask If or Pearson's dismis sal, would get no consideration from the Sun. The more probable cause for Pearson's discharge is that when a newspaper hires a man as reporter it does not want a man who will abuse his position by getting connected with noisome publications, with scandal books of one kind or an other. A man and a newspaper are known by the company they keep ; and a paper like the Sun is run as a newspaper and wants no connection with a garbage heap. 4 "Editor and Publisher", the newsman's own organ, i vyuvu a. j.c isauca ou weiii. aiir xiuriey mercilessly, virtually accusing him of false statement in his comments respecting the B.

We know of no more liberal newspaper In the United States than Baltimore Sun. It is famed far and wide In Journalism for loyalty to lis staff, permitting writers more freedom than perhaps any other newspaper of the east. News papermen will understand why the Sun would consider the use fulness of a reporter! destroyed if he wre to travel about his assignment handicapped and embarrassed; by the known fact that lie might be asking questions, and peeking behind the scenes, tor an anonymous book publisher, albeit presenting the card of the Baltimore Sun. This breaks all faith. H. L. Mencken, Frank Kent, J. Fred Essary and ether Baltimore Snn men hit as hard in their writings as any newspapermen of the land, but they stand behind their stuff in full candor and enjoy the respect of officialdom. j "We do not doubt that the "Menfy-Go-Round" series is profitable to the authors and publishers, and it is conceded that such books may serve excellent public purposes. It la a wholesome thing to have public men debunked, now and then. v... . 1. - .1 a i , . Dui me anonymous memoa is Try, Try Again" mHE virtue of the old copybook malxim about persistence J. ' i order to attain success, is exemplified in the victory of the Salem Drum corps at the national convention of the legion. This drum corps has been working for years to get this coveted honor. It has won repeatedly in state contests, ATtlv T -fall incf oVisM- at ki'li 1 i i.v. 1 vuv juo,, ouuii ui 111511 (jiaue in, Mie iinai cuiupeuuuii. The band appeared in Louisville, in San Antonio, in Detroit. Now it gained double honors at Portland. It won the first place as a corps, and its drum major, Charles Whittemore, won first for drum majors. The dual victory created great rejoicing in Salem and over the department of Oregon, for the Salem drum corps has always been popular in the state. I The victory of the splendid trio of the American Legion Auxiliary put another bright star in Salem's crown. The turn-out in honor of the returning champions Thursday night was not only a deserved tribute, it was a spontaneous one. The people took 'real delight in honoring the victors. They were a tired outfit, to be sure, after days and nights of strenuous performance; but they did thrill to the welcome given by the old home town. ! The distinction means a lot to Salem in the way of fine advertising all over the country. The Corps will be in great demand for many public occasions. The city is delighted to share the fame which their success brings to the performers and the post which' has sponsored them through the years of effort. AlHappy Event THOSE who went to Portland to find out just what a god awful show the American Legion convention was came home disappointed. The streets around the principal hotels were not littered with hotel furniture and busted glassware! The crowds were not maudlin. All th& plate glass insurance taken out for the week was returned "unused." Not that there was no drinking or such. There j was; but the' conven tion failed to reach the heights or depths such as Dr. Clar ence True Wilson attributed to the Detroit conclave, and as otnerwnters to the sessions at Boston; and Kansas City. .

Copeland, M.D. A DOZEN years ago little was known about vitamins. ,, The average person had seldom heard the word. Today the term is familiar to everybody. A great dear of information as well as mis information is published daily about vitamins. Unfortunately the public mind has become con fused, and in consequence there has been a n unjustified exploitation of the so - called "vitamin e x -tracts," "vita min rnnnn Dr. Copeland tratea" And "vitamin pills." I am sorry to say that the vita min fad has encouraged a lot of quackery. Clever advertising has taken much hard-earned money from unsuspecting vitamin hunters. It is not necessary to buy vita min extracts or to swallow vita min pills. If you will eat a well balanced diet, which includes vege tables, fruits, salads and milk, you will get all the vitamins your high est welfare demands. Tke Various Vitamins We hear much talk about vitamin A. This is supposed to give pro tection against infections, particu larly of the mucous membranes of the eyes, intestinal tract and up per respiratory tract. This vita min is found in butter, cream, egg yolk, carrots, spinach, fish, salads, cream cheese and cod-liver oil. "Ben-ben" is the name of a dis ease caused by the lack of vitamin B. We rarely hear of the disease nowadays, for most diets contain the protecting vitamin. It is found in whole grain cereals, asparagus, tomatoes, beans, leafy vegetables and yeast. Scurvy is a nutritional disease which was common in the days of sailing vessels and long sea voy ages. But in a mild form it is caused whenever there is a lack io the diet of fresh fruits and vege tables, such as oranges, lemons, to matoes, grapefruit, lettuce and cabbage. These foods contain vita min Cy called the "anti-scorbutic" vitamin because it prevents scurvy. Rickets is another vitamin defi ciency disease caused by a lack of vitamin D in the. diet. This vita min is found in egg-yolk and cod liver oiL In addition to preventing and curing rickets, it is believed to aid in the development of bones and teeth. The Well-Balaaceo! Diet "Pellagra," a disease which baf fled the medical profession for many years, is now traced to a lack of vitamin G, known as the "anti-pellagra, vitamin.". It is found in milk, spinach, bananas, leafy vegetables and yeast. "Vitamin G and vitamin B combined are thought to stimulate appetite and growth. Other vitamins are being studied by research workers. It is not necessary to worry about any of the vitamins. ' If you include in your diet liberal amounts ot the foods I have mentioned, which are known to contain vita mins, you will help yourself to vig orous heaHh. I cannot say too much about the importance of a well-balanced diet which contains varied and whole some food and supplies the body, with all the various food elements Daily TTibught "I feel In myself the tutu 50 life.

Tho one followed the way of peace with the white man; the omer participated in a war which swept off one-sixth the settlers of New England. It may be that in these two statements lies the ans wer to tho question. -". The adjectives "shrew d," "crafty." and "wilv." so fremint- ly applied to Comcomly, may in dicate merely the ability of the great Chinook chief to act with foresight in matters affecting his own weirare and that of his peo ple. Such enlightened self inter est on the part of white leaders Is dignified by the name of states manship.

Tho white men, in wretch ed plight, were taken back to tho village where they were treated with every kindness until tho storm abated three days later. Comcomly then manned his state canoo and conducted his guests to tho Tonquin. Tho facts appear to indicate that tho aboriginal ln- naoitants or tho lower Columbia region scarcely merited tha r.u thet ot "savage" so commonly appuea to tnem. Tho cultural sta tus of these people mora nearly approximated that ot semi-civil isation. S Tho lower Columbia Indiana lived in houses made of split ce dar boards. These houses were from 30 to 40 feet in length and were often as much as 20 feet In width. Incredible as it may seem, tho boards used in tho construc tion of tho houses were sometimes 20 feet or more in leneth. two or three feet In width, and varied from three to six inches in thick ness. With infinite labor, using elkhorn wedges, bearer teeth chis els, flinty, rocks, etc., tho natives split out tha boards from tha ri ant logs. Tho telling was dona witn lire. Oaa of tha most strlklnr fea tures of tha culture complex of mo unmooKs ana tneir neighbors was tha construction and use of great canoes. 40 toot or mora In length, capable of carrying SO or w persona. Tneeo canoes were extensively employed for coast wise navigation, as well as for or voyages. Tha northward limit or mis coastwlsa navigation ap pears to have boon Vancouver la land; while the - southward limit was tha vicinity ot Capo Blanco.

You'd first ask her if you might have it, spouldnt you?" "Tea." Her voice was smothered. "Then why take her husband without asking her consent I" She lifted her bead. Tears streamed down her face. "Oh, Dad ums, how could one do a tiring like that?

Dr. Carl Gregg Doney is not sorry ha abandoned tho ministry ror a career as an educator. Thus, rather negatively, a Salem Caoltal Journal Interviewer onena his story after a talk with tha man who was most Influential in rais ins: Willamette university to ita present powerful position In Ore gon higher education.

Not every good preacher can teach. And every man can find the place in which he can giro the greatest service.

Ho served ably there for eight years and then came to Oregon in 1115 as head of Willamette university, a little school With 114 atndenta. an endowment ot about $500,000 and a debt ot soma $10,000.
