M.VKVS LAMB When Mary had her little lamb, ex istence was Joke then people lived on pie and Jam, and weren't always broke. The prices then were not so steep as those our markets quote, and so a girl could have a sheep, n warthog or a goat. If Mary had a lamb today, and wished to feed the same, and went to buy a bale of hay, she'd find the price & shame. And she would cry. "Oh, mutton dear, the prices freeze my blood; if you can't live on atmosphere, methinks your name Is Mud. I gnash my teeth and mourn and weep to see you go away; but I must have a wood en sheep, that doesn't bleat for hay." When Mary had her little lamb you'd buy ft herd of swine, for what you now pair for a ham, that's mostly bone and brine. Then little girls could have their lambs, to trail along behind, and bobcats, crocodiles and clams, and pets of every kind. ' And they could have their polar bears, and wolves, and snakes galore, and build them neat and cozy lairs beneath the kitchen Boor. But now a girl would get In wrong. If she with pets should fool; and Mary taken no lamb along, when she proceeds to- school. 0.; The Carrier INDUSTRIAL TURMOIL SOUGHT. ASTRIrtE a day keeps prosperity away and Salem should strive to be a strikeless city. Under the joint mediation plan now in effect, one prospective strike has been averted and another strike quickly ended. There is no future controversy that cannot "be promptly compro mised as long as the rule of reason prevails. Prompt settlement of the Spaulding mill strike is due to the spirit of moderation and conciliation governing both sides to the controversy, which as in many other in stances, was based upon misunderstanding. It demon strates that both Salem employers and workmen - are amenable to reason" and conservative in temperament. , However, it seems the prompt strike settlement gave offense to a few labor radicals not directly concerned in the matter, for a resolution has been offered in the cen tral labor council calling for the removal of the council's representatives upon the conciliation board for having used excellent judgment in terminating the mill strike Evidently the local bolsheviki were disappointed in not in augurating industrial warfare in Salem and creating dis cord and resultant suffering. In as much as both parties to the controversy are sat isfied with the agreement reached, the strikers got all and more than they asked, this effort of the reds to create trouble will probably die abomin'. It should for the future welfare and prosperity of Salem.

INVESTIGATION has disclosed the fact that over 50,000 V aliens are working in the industrial centers of this country to foster Bolshevism, anarchy and revolution. Many of the foreign language newspapers, pro-German before the war, are spreading the propaganda. Official investigation" has also established the fact that the red or radical press of the country is financed "by wealthy dilettante socialists "and anarchists of New York, the same groups that financed the peace efforts before and during the war and generally played the German game, although mostly American born. Other agitators like John Reed, admit their campaign of Bolshevik propaganda is financed jointly by Lenine and rich women sympathizers in the metropolis. All of these sinister forces are co-operating for "revolution and the destruction of the government. ' - The field selected for operation is among the huge for eign populations in the industrial centers and the steel and coal strikes offer most favorable opportunity for spreading the propaganda. Wherever there is a strike, there flock the apostles of anarchy spreading their insid ious fallacies. ' We will not have industrial peace until this crowd of alien firebrand anarchists are rounded up and deported, until the seditious press is suppressed and the advocates of revolution muzzled. Liberty-is not license and the hos pitality of Uncle Sam is grossly abused and the doors should be permanently closed for this class of immigrant.

LOVE and MARRIED LIFE dij, xne noxea auuior Idah MSGlone Gibson : THINKING IT OVF.lt JiVE ! it hair cut I III Klmli? AVer HSikS ftf vi iiori f Give him. Some folks ars arrayed again evrr'lhlns they can't run. . But, as usual, all analysis of my new husband my lover all vngue discom fort with present conditions passed, when as John lifted me from tho motor he bent Mid kissed my Hps, regardless of how tt might affect pnssersby. "John, John." I said, "they'll know we arc just married!" "Well, we are, aren't we?" he nsked, perfectly oblivions to how anything that he hould wish to do 'might af fect any orio else. At the time I did not realize that this could come to be a perfect bugbear to me. Then I thought that John's love for me was overpowering that all the world meant nothing to him. T wns embarrassed for a moment nt the conspicuous position In which ho had placed me, but Immediately found that I need not have worried about so small n thing, for John strode into the lobby of the hotel, leaving me to fol low' meekly, apparently forgotten; In deed, so much so that the swinging door through which he passed nearly hit me on the face. Ho was so intent upon getting the proper accommodations that for the moment he had lost Bight of the person for whom, presumably, he was getting them. Although I did not realize it, I have since found that this singleness of purpose, this absolute concentration upon tha thing at hand, Is John's pre dominating characteristic. Tt has made him the successful business man that he Is. but sometimes I have thought that I would be thankful for fewer luxuries and more personal considera tion. , I believe every woman feels this way you may cnll it vanity or what you please hut It is a very human trait to wish to be first, not only in the heart, but in the mind of the man yuu love. A man Insists that this shall be so. and I hive never yet met a married man who has been satisfied to be put nlde for any occupation or diversion that his wife might elect to pursue. Even maternal devotion must be curb ed and cui tailed if one's husband wish. os to be (unused. ' Oh. yes, I know I would he taken to task If this. statement of mine were made public, but every wife in her heart will know that what I say is true. I reached the desk in time to see that John had registered "John Gor don and wife." As he wrote the word "wife" he turned to me and smiled but I felt as thought it would, have been much better taste to have writ ten "Mr. and Mrs. John Jordon." Tor hups I was unduly sensitive but after the little episode at the door the addi tion of "and wife" seemed to be in the same recording category as 'and valet" I took myself to task immediately for this feeling as T realized that If I wore going to be so critical, I should find enough to make me unhappy. The momentous uuestion of rooms settled. John turned to me and taking my arm with a caressing touch, walked Desnie me to the elevator, and again, such was the power of his nhvaic.nl magnetism that the very "feel" of his hand on my arm turned my dreams fiom gry to gold. I forgot everything but the fact thnt I was John's wife that I would be with him always woud be able to sense this adorable nearness. I wonder if any man looks upon marriage In Just the way a woman does? I believe that eVerv Amortenn girl, brought up as I had been, to feel inni when she marries tho men she loves, she has reached not onlv purpose, but the climax, of her exist ence, endows that man with certain almost superhuman qualities. She. Is bound to be dlsannointed hrnno .., one has told lier that her lover and ner nusiinnd are quite as different as though they wore no kin. " My mother and father had tori a different wedded existence from the usuai married life, that I had built up a dream that was Impossible of fulfill ment. It was a dream wherein the first thought of both hnnlmnrt nnrl ,lf should be of each other wherein thev would be that "one" of which the mar riage bond speaks. I know now that such a thing Is Im possible, and it only makes for unhap plneas to teach our daughters that "love is all," while from the first our sona estimate love at a truer value. Some of this must have shown in my face, for John miller) m iin,n upon his knee and looking Into my eyes said: "What's matter, eirl? Ar,,-V you happy?" 'Terfectly," I answered truthfully, for even now I know that when John smiles ami putM his arms around me. I am happy. (Continued Monday.) Sending Of "Picture Brides" To U. S.

The Best Amusement Ever in Oregon Coming to Salem IN ANNOUNCING GUY BATES POST as the best amusement attraction ever seen on the Coast I am only voicing the opinion of the critics of San Francisco, Portland and every other city in which this well known star has presented "THE MASQUERADER" not in past seasons, BUT RIGHT NOW THE SAME EXCELLENT COMPANY' THE ONE THAT HAS PRESENTED THIS ATTRACTION SINCE IT BEGAN The same wonderful scenic equipment with its double revolving; stages its three mechanical crews its triple electrical equipment and inimitable resources that requires three mammoth cars to transport, will be seen in SALEM WEDNESDAY NIGHT, NOVEMBER 12. WHEN NEGOTIATIONS BEGAN for this wonderful organization, the writer made a visit PERSONALLY TO SEATTLE, in order that I might be fully and thoroughly familiar with the merits and massiveness of this presenta tion. I was more than repaid for the, trip, by seeing what I honestly believe to be the most finished and impressive theatrical entertainment I have ever seen, THE MOST COMPLETE THAT HAS EVER MADE A TRANS CONTINENTAL TOUR- THE STAGE OF THE GRAND . IS LARGER THAN MOST STAGES THROUGHOUT THE STATE, and yet by actual measurement there is but a few inches to spare in accommodation this massive production, and only that is made available by removing every vesta ge of house scenery and equipment, in fact the Manager for Mr. Post made a special trip to this city and personally measured the stage to make certain of its adequate dimensions. v IT IS WITH PARDONABLE PER SONAL PRIDE that I can and do assure the amusement lovers of the valley of the unusualness of this production Mail orders will be received and reserved in order of reception now. The usual and customary box office sale will open six days in advance of the engagement. '' . TRICES the same as Portland, San Fran cisco and all other cities, will range from $1.00 to $2.50 And I desire to state while there is no chance for The Grand to make a profit from this exceptional engagement, I feel certain amusement lovers will amply reward by their continued and appreciated patronage. Respectfully, T.G.BLIGH, ' Manager. LENSES "WHAT noble service do we get from these convex and concave pieces of glass more precious in value than the rarest aad most radiant gems!
