Sewage Disposal Plants PORTLAND is waking up to the possibility of making sewage disposal one of the public works projects of the WillametteTvalley. The city is taking up with Gov. Meier provide the engineering work funds do the construction work. The terms of the new public 'works bill are not known, but the valley could find no better disposition of funds on public works .than sewage disposal plants 'which would end the contamination of the "beautiful Willamette." As the current bulletin of the state board of health says: ! The- question of proper disposal ot municipal waste is ot more importance than many of our citizens realize. The very condition of human existence demands that these wastes be ren dered harmless and unobjectionable." i Salem is an offender in Portland. Industrial wastes, in are let flow into the river now. The evil is admitted, but funds have been lacking for completing the sewer project with a disposal plant. Perhaps federal funds to provide em ployment may be a means of escape. The state bulletin has more to say on the subject: "Modern sewage disposal provides for the destruction of ..disease germs and the decomposition of organic material so that it will no longer' be a nuisance. The organic matter Is decom posed by bacteria to a stable state in which foul odors are not present. The final result is the formation of simple gases and harmless compounds such as oxygen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, suiphates and- nitrates. In properly designed sewage treatment plants the amount of undecomposed material is reduced to a min mntn. "This has been done at very moderate cost and can be done now at 20 lower cost than ever before. Expert and competent sanitary engineers state that a modern plant can be built at a cost of as low as seven dollars and fifty cents per capita. Tbe cost of maintenance has been found In the most efficient plant to " be as low as ten cents per capita. The sludge products also hare sold for as high as $18.00 sanitary sewage produces about Music vs. THE Baptist "preachers of the state have been meeting In Eugene. The organist of the Hinson Memorial church in Portland was on the program, and he unloaded a lot of burdens he had been carrying less preaching was his advice to the parsons. He said the reason the "worldy crowd" came to church Easter and Christmas was because they were sure to get 90 music and 10 preaching. "Music," he said, "can tug at the heart strings of people when you fellows with your D.D. degrees and flow of eloquence a mile long would never even get to first base." ; , What the preachers said the record; but they might have something to say about flat anthems and hickety-hackety organ music. But we refer them to Earl Cochran of the Calvary Baptist church here. He leads the choir and preaches the sermon too, and has good crowds all the time. Maybe that is the combination the Bap tist churches need. We have an idea that the and less of music, if either is measures up they like to have more of both. Salem and Beer fllHE B2 towns are giving Salem the razzberry for adhering We.. to prohibition, although as is profiting from the spurt in hop prices. They forget that besides being the hop capital this is the Methodist capital -of the state. The very city is the outgrowth of missionary effort; and there are many thousands of its citizens who are more interested in character building than in hops. ! We, do not know what the charter provisions of other cities-may be, but here prohibition is embraced in the city charter, and it is rigid prohibition. The council cannot enact an -ordinance in violation of the charter. A proposed repeal - amendment will be submitted at the July 21 election, and then the people will have an opportunity to voice their senti ments. At that time the friends of "true temperance" will have the opportunity of urging their great reform. Until the charter is amended the council is impotent anyway. If the people wanJ; beer , here they will have the privilege of voting for it at the July election. J . Strawberry Marketing ROSEBURG is making plans to end cutthroat competition on marketing of strawberries. With the berry crop short this year, growers ought to get a good price. But with so many, individual growers buyers may have the advantage and prices be cut down. At Roseburg a producer-committee has been named to establish a local distribution agency to prevent ruthless price-cutting. - 1 There will be general hope they will succeed. Here the Labish growers did a pretty good job ta pooling their onions last falL and by controlling sales the markets went up instead , of down, until the last of the crop was disposed of. Some form of united front is needed on the part of producers in order to bargain fairly In the markets. - 1 filLOY VARIETIES V a V11 x 17 The all- X. boy variety show presented by the bora Af the, att ..v-.i VV - - - "v uuvi mm niond nan Friday drew a packed BOUSSk Th l)in waa tt.( v uuijnuu, i am ooya wno took th part ot girls were ep cially good.; : ; If embers of tha boys' chorus wera Edward Stevenson, William Waehter, Hollia Wood, Homer Thicker.

Cosh, there's not another woman ia the world who'd do it Mary Faith." "Oh, yes. there are. There are millions of women just like me. Kim." She pressed him dowa upon bis pillows and smoothed his hair back from his forehead. "Don't yoa suppose there are other husbands who get tired of their wives every now and then, and tared of aQ their responsibilities? And don't you sup pose their wives take them back? Of course, they do." She laughed a little shakily. "And yoaU probably get lick and tired of me a gam. Kna. Bat it won't terrify the way it used to. IH fast wait for yoa to come to your senses ... i U know that sooner or later every thing will be all right again, just as it U now." For her everything was ail right then. Without aay work ia sight or say way of earning money, without aay real plans for the future, with nothing hot the promise ef two baaw dred doOars railroad fare for herself and Kim and the baby, she still knew that everything would be all right She would make things come right somehow ar other. ... "Kim," she said. "I think in run downstairs and telephone a wire to Jeaa Bartlett to tell her that we're coming aat to Phoenix. She's beea wanting me to come out aad shell probably be glad to take us ia until we find a place of our own." Mrs. Packett too. Mrs. Puckett would probably lead them some money aad they would surely be able to pay k back after a while. . . . Mary Faith felt power and hope stirring within her as she braced herself for the long struggle ahead. She got ap from the floor and walked across the room oa her way downstairs to the telephone. At the door she turned for a minute and glanced back at Kim who lay witch ing her with a look of utter content ment oa his face. "By faith the walls of Jericho fell down,' Kim." she said to him.
