Buy Now!
TODAY Salem business firms, under the leadership of the
local NRA committee launch a vigorous "Buy Now" cam
paign. The motto is: "If everyone spends, everyone works."
There is no surer path to industrial recovery than in re-invigorating
the demand of the public for goods. It is the re
- newed stimulus of demand for goods across the counters of
the nation, which being felt in the factories and on the farms
and in the mines which are the sources of the goods desired,
which will bring true industrial revival. '
I H. I. Phiffips, writing in the New York Sun, lists the f ol
! Io wingr reasons for "buying NOW" :
Money makes the nightmare go.,
Boy Now! Whatever yon spend will be a contribution to
, your own welfare.
Spending a dollar today may hurt a little bit it will make
: spending 5 practically painless in a taw months.
- Don't say. "Oh, that's Just another slogan!" TouU only be
like the doughboy who decided bngle calls were too? Monotonous

You all cheered tor Recovery; who did you expect was going
to do the work?
s Why say you can't afford it? When your house is burning
; down would you hesitate to put a nickel into the pay station to
; get the Ere department?
', - YouHhear the old Scoffers Brigade saying that the recov
; ery drivo can't work, but the fe'low who tries to beUttle a move
. meat like this Is like the man who stands by a sinking steamer
la his yacht and criticizes the way the sailors are handling the
. lifeboats. .
NTr ""ad singing the national anthem; go on out and
spend a little dough. It looks more sincere.
' Flag waving is okay, bat nobody ever balanced a budget
- that way.
If f heered, when the New Deal was first proclaimed and
yon balk atoing a a little spending bender now, what role are
yon rehearsing for. patriot or kiWtxer?
ii . That nt looks X-hooey anyhow and if your suit gets any
; higher polish oa it you can use it for a shaving mirror.
- a For once in your life surprise the little woman by telling
her you are tfwni of her In that fur coat.
Don't say "Look how- higher prices are now than they were
six months go." (TJnless you were satisfied with conditions six
months -ago.)
It may the root of all evil, as the philosophers say, but
T?W "r" tlme wtra the country needed more rooters.
The trouble with the average shopper is the same as the
trouble with the Average golfer; he la too tight.
Don't wait for the other fellow to do the spending: he's
waiting for you.

"The division agent was custo

hired and dismissed the drivers,
stock tenders and other employes,
and had general aunervuion ot the
running of the stages and the
care and conduct of the stations.

"It was not absolutely ne
cessary." Mark Twain records,
'that the division agent should be
a gentleman, and occasionally he
wasn't. But he was always a gen
eral In administrative ability, and
a bull-dog in courage and de
termination. Otherwise chieftain

"Ranking next in importance
to the division agent was the
conductor or messenger, who sat
with the driver en the front seat,
and whose beat also covered 200
miles. He was responsible for the
safety of the mall and express
matter in his charge until he
delivered them to the next -con
ductor and received his receipt
for them.
"His duties called for the con

ductor became In after years

I All OFTEN asked wbeth there
la any difference, between "rheums
ttsm" and "acute rheumatic fever.
They arc really the same. Most per
sons confuse the
term rheumatism
with muscular or
Joint pains, round
In neuritis, arth-
ritla, neuralgia
and other similar
affilnrlona
Though trs

rheumatism, - the
cause of this baf
fling disease lias
never been dis
covered. It Is probable that th af
fliction la the result of an infection
by a germ. In certain cases a germ
known as the "streptococcus rben-
maUcus" has been Isolated. But It Is
not found In all cases. More evidence
Is needed to prove that this particu
lar germ causes the disease.
A Cause of Heart Disease
As a rule the ailment afflicts young
children, but It Is frequently encoun
tered in adults. It is one of th most
Common causes of heart disease.

this disease and its menace to future
health and napplness.
Unfortunately, the-disease ia often
overlooked In It early stages. At
times It Is regarded merely as -the
"growing pains" of chOdras. To all
mothers I would Uk to emphasize
th fact that there Is no each thing
pain due to growth. If a child
" complains persistently of pain la the
legs, arms and shoulders, rbsuma
Qam should b enspected.
' Th positive- diagnosis ahould be
made by a physician, but the exist
ence of th disease should always be
suspected tf th sufferer compiuin
of nein in the Joints. This I par
ticularly true If th victim runs a
high fever, sweats freely, has ior
appetite- and Is extremely restless !
One the diagnosis Is mad tt Is
Imperative that the victim remain m

nent symptoms disappear. Relief
from pain ia obtained by placing the
afflicted Joint or Joints In a comfort

against Involvement of th heart
It Is the belief of many doctor
that acute rheumatic fever or rheu

4o be a brief one. When the
Overland came into being, there
was already a general belief that
the building of a transcontinen
tal railroad only waited upon a
cessation of the sectional and
partisan differences that for a
decade prior to 1861 blocked the
selection ot a route. Then came
the secession of the southern
states, and on July 1. 1862. Pres
ident Lincoln signed a bill nro.
viding for the construction of
the Central Pacific and Union
Pacific railroads over the central
route. Work lagged at first, but
gained momentum in 1864 when
congress enacted additional leg
islation making it easier for the
builders to secure needed finan
cial support, and soon there was
a Swift advance of the rails both
front, the east and the west,
"Meanwhile Holladay, quick to
note the handwriting on the wall,
la the latter part of 1866 sold
his interests at a profit to the
rival firm of Wells. Fargo and
company, and retired to a coun
try estate on the Hudson. The
rails met at Promontory Point la
Utah on -May 10, 186 , and
coaching traffic, except in re
gions to which the railroad did
not as yet extend, sassed into
quick and complete eclipse. But
the Overland had played Its part
and a mighty one lathe. making

came op to her with Pete in th

Pete started to say listen. Mom"
bat Steve's face cot rod and ah
laughed and ran back into the
kitchen and Pete yelled, "hey, yoa
aid you'd stick with me." but
Steve wouldn't come in so Mom and
Pete went oat and Steve looked at
Mom and started crying and Mom
pot her arms around her and said
she guessed she knew and not tol
cry then Mom started crying too
and Pete looked at the two of them
and Et a cigaret and said, "hey,
you two, it's not a funeral,1' and
Steve told him to shot his face and
beat it; so Pete walked, out like he
thought the two of them were
"crazy; and Mom aad Steve had a
lone talk; and Steve was real sen
sible just as Mom knew sho would
be;, and when Pete cam in Mom
told him h was getting: a fine wife
and Pete said, "yoa think I'm
dumb, Mom? and then Mom
kissed him and they were both em
barrassed because it was the first
time she had kissed Pete for a good
many years as he never went away
or anything and they weren't the
kissing kind of a family, anyhow.
Then Pete said: "How ' about
Pop?" and Mom said for them to
go on, she would take car of Pop
and she knew the two of them had
expected her to. So when Pop came
back from downtown Mom broke
it to him and the first this$ he said!
was, "what do they mean, get mar
ried," like he had no Idea at all and
it was a great surprise to him;
then Mom asked him if h hadn't
had any eyes in his head for the
last two or three years; but by
that time Pop was well worked op
about it and that eye dropped down
aad h said he'd haw to. think
about it, as if that made any dif
ference; then ne started te walk up
and down and preach about getting
married in times like these and
Mom told him about th times they!
had got married in bat Pop said
that was daerentt and when Kern
asked him what he meant he looked
at her like sho should know better'
than ask such foolish questions-; so
Mom let Iron talk and xet ft over!
with; and as lock happened. Just as
he had finished givinc her a hun
dred reasons why Pete and Steve
shooldat get married, who walkedi
in hat unci Lome; and when he
heard what was geHng on he said
they were craxy to think of gwttingj
reamed and brmginf more months
into the world to feed.
Then Pop turned an him and said
he soeaaed if they brooght any
months Into the world they could
feed them all right aad they'd!
never have te ask scenebedy else te
feed them; and Uncle Low cam
right back and said if Pop was
throwing; any -hints at him he
might as well come right oat with
It and Pep said Uaele Loale

Louie asked Horn where. Pete was
goinr to live and Horn' said the
animoaed IhaVd aro to honaekceP-
ing someplace and Uncle Loui said
he would" take Pete's room. .Then
Pop said, "by dang, you take the
cake," and aince Uncle Louie was
for the wedding Pop was against
it again nata Mem told him h
should be ashamed of. himself, -act.
ling that way with a good boy like
Pete aad the. onry thing wrong;
wouldn't know a hint! vt a oncaube began naming rdce places Pete
with him was he was afraid thefto the country and buy things from
men at the factory wwuidbe calling!

fsnny and snoolt his need and said,
"Lixsie, we mast be gttingvoieY
but th fanny part was he
seemed to like the idea of being a
Grandpa; aad- that eye dropped
down and he said. TH make a
fighter out of the first one." and
Kern asked' "him how he knew it
would be a boy and Pop said
-proudly, "didn't we have aU boys 7
Pep bad always taken a lot of
credit for Pete and Tea being toys
and Mom always had an idea he
was sorry they never had twins so
he could brae; about that, The men
at the factory were fanny; if you
listened to them you d think the
mothers- had nothing to do with it.
Then came the plans about the
wedding. Pop was aU for a big
wedding at first but Uncle Louie
said they didn't need a big wedding
la church bat should have a big
dinner at home for aU the close
relatives. Cousin Emmy tried to
take charge of everything at once
and made herself the one to stand
cp with Steve and said she'd wear
a new pink laee dress and Mom
thought if the wedding didn't do
any other rood at aU it would be a
success if it got Cousin Emmy
something else than her flowered
chiffon she had been wearing to
weddings and funerals and every
thing else for so many years.
Then Mom stopped aU of them
and said it might be a good idea If
the bride and groom had something
to say about It, considering; it was
their wedding; and Pop said, that's
right, and looked at Uncle Louie
and Uncle Louie gave Cousin Em
my a black look.
The only one with any sense
about it was Tommy. He asked
Pete where they were going on
their honeymoon and Pete said he
didn't know en account of the two
garages that Steve's father could
take care of one bat he waa afraid
to leav the other one with Uncle
Louie very longs then Tom atadied
for a second aad said, "would yon
leave It with met" and Pete looked
surprised aad grateful aad said,
"soie, Tom only I wemUal expect
yon to do that." and Tom said,!
"forget that, Pete yoa only ret
married once so have a good time
and asxythtey I caa do Just call oaJ
me and stay as leer as yoa want.
hfom' heart was oversowing jostl
to watch the two ox them together,
both fine boys la their own ways,1
and she thought it wa grand forf
Tommy t say thmtte Fete; pxe-
ulady because- Pete had always
ho waa in college many the, dol
lar Horn had sent Tommy which!
had come from Pete's pocket.
Then Pete said, with Tom InJ
ehargvhe end Steve might take a
little trip at that; and he began
ttlnlrtnr. about places; then Tom
asked him why, Instead of spentfingl
car and the fare would pay a good
part ef It and -he could probably
use it later in the business. Pete
shook Us head and said tt was a
good idea; then Tom said he didat
want to seem te be butting Ia bat
might stop at, and things to see,
which Pete appreciated on account
of Tommy travelling around so
much. And all the time poor Steve
would just ' sit and watch Tom
from behind as If he were some
body awful great; and Mom knew
Steve, was tickled pink because
Tommy was taking .such an inter
est because she, had always been
afraid Tommy wouldn't approve of
her. And Steve whispered to Mom
that with a car they could drive oat
the farmers t oe; ether and save
money Mom eonld see Steve was
going to be Uk herself and watch
every penny. N
- Most mothers were selfish but
Mom tried to be real sensible about
it. It was easy to see that Pete aad
Steve were not the gadabout kind
but the settling kind and Mont
thought the sooner they were set
tled down in a place of their own
th better iben, if she wer taken,
she'd know Pete would be in good
handstand Pop, too. Steve would
be faithful as the night was long
and Pete would be, too, and that
was something in these days. Steve
was neat as a pin about the house
aad could cook pretty good aad
what she didn't know Mom would
teach her as she was anxious to
learn. s '
Mom had to laugh to herself ev
ery time she thought of what Pete
had said, Steve wasnt very good
at sewing on account of notahaving
any mother and Mom waa showing
Iter how to whip a bit of lace oa a
pillow slip and Pete stood watch
ing for a minute with a look en bis
face like he always had when he
was teasing Steve and he said:
"Give her a crowbar Instead of a
needle, Mom " then Steve threw
a pillow at him and ran him out.
Mom hoped they would keep on
like that hot en eonld never tell
what life had fas store for a couple
of young ones starting out
together.
Although Mom couldn't com
plain. Pep had been a good man
and no mother ever had two finer
sons that Pete and Tommy and
Tommy would be great again. Mom
felt it ia her bones. It was fanny,
sewing Steve's wedding things on
the very seme ma e nine Mom's
mother had sewed If em's wedding
dress it had been blue. Just the
shade of Mora's eyes aad Pop had
always liked it so much Mom cried
and Pop felt bad, too, when she
had had to turn aad dye It; but the
sun faded blue so aad little Pete
had spilled things oa it. Mom had
intended making another th same
