Kdltor, Dear Sir: May I again ask upace ln the publlo forum with which In discuss a matter I think to " be of Interest? namely, Altruism. This Is hot entirely adeiumte ns a term. 1 mlirht say unselfishness, at any rale the word altruism according to the man who coined it, means or liei'talns to others (Lecompte.) This 1m simply a phase of everyday ethics, the right regard for the rights and privileges of others, That most peo ple aim to develop true altruism goes without mtylng, Put there are some who are Interested ln others on ly to the enhancement of themselves, and selfish Interests, Ofttlnies Jhe man who Is the most lnfUieiill:iJ and , Hives to charity, may be one who would Jump at nay chance to gain nn advantage over another. There Is for Instance the automo bile rond hog, soeulled. The bigger the car and the more. Influential the man the more deliberate is he. In Portland a street was closed, and the paving company watchman tried to prevent a well to do man from going thru. lie sold material to the paving company and thought he would be protected if ho forced the enclosure. He went thru, rnn Into the vntchnan Injured him and got off without even n reprimand. Tin good to know that the auto men have gone In to elimi nate him. Another, Is the end sent hog, so called, lie used to frequent public places of a secular nature. Now he has made his advent Into the church es, and becomes the problem of the UHhers. lie would rather stand up and out, block the way, rather than move down. The fact that a man gets a seat first, that It affords a better view, and that he need! It does not relieve him from foregoing it occa sionally for the benefit of others, es pecially where seals are not sold and numbered. Another Is the waiting line fellow Who Ib too rushed to keep his place. A while back I stood ln a line ln one of Salem's banks, and a business man with big ling In his hand, watched me with a single bill of currency In hand and with nil of his business shrewd ness angled Ills way ahead to the window. What was It. Was It the fact that I looked easy, below his station, j or the Idea of special privilege that so moved him ? Again 1 was at a Rile, bad bought some goods and was bidden to come over to a small room to sec some ta bleware. A large business man heard , the man speak, left off the examin ing of the object of his desire, hurried up ahead of me, got In the door with Hands and feet surveyed the goods, got the price and bought all that was worth hiving, notwithstanding, he had admitted buying some of the name goods before, and hardly need ed them. Put his sense of values and the desire to Ret something for near ly nothing, rafised hint to forget true altruism, worse yet, to me. It was a bleach of good ethics. And there nre oilier, and of recent occurrence. In the last few months 1 have had what seemed to mo to be Well to do women In three IhmMuccs systematically work ahead of while walling In a meat market. Tt i as a Christian citizen, sign a petition for a liquor license, rent property to be used for the purposes of the traffic, vote for it or with It, or fail, to make his citizenship count as an elector In protest against the traffic's continu ance. To do anyone of these things It to betray his citizenship, the religion he professes, and the church of the liv ing Christ. WILLIAM N. TAI'T. Kt. 4, Box 8-A, Salem, Oregon, Kdltor Capital Journal: On glan cing over your paper of March 3 my eyes caught sight of a picture (If it could be called such) an advertise ment put oit by the Bllgh that made me wonder why a city claiming to be moral and wanting to help make our boys and girls into better men and women will allow such low down stuff carried on. Of course we all know that such pictures will draw large crowds and consequently make more money for the man concerned, but why sell the souls of our children for .the dol lars? Surely the ones who run such ridiculous places have no children of their own or hnve no one else they care for, therefore someone should take steps to see If ln the place of such degrading stuff something uplifting to humanity could not be substituted. Why will men (good men too) con tinually harp on the use of tobacco (which is an unnecessary filthy habit) and let the shows run ns they nre doing now. Our city has a high grade of officers and I am proud to say it. Of course It is impossible to make a heaven of this earth but I believe they should do something on thlu'llue. . -Another thing that has been started In Salem that cannot be of any good to our youngsters Is culled the Skating Rink. Also the gym exercises prao- t teed in our public schools. Oh, do I hear some one say, "Ydu old fogy." Well lf you could live one hundred years from today I am afraid you would cry 'for the rocks and moun tains to fall on you and say to yourself If to no one else, why didn't I do some thing to check the downward career of our young people sooner? I do certainly hope the time la near at hand when gambling houses will be closed forever. So many of our men, not only our young ones but older ones as well, men old enough to be an ex ample for the growing boys, spend their bard earned cash, money that their families need to get necessary food and clothing, in ways that not only aet bad examples and couse their near kindred and friends to suffer, but send their own souls to an undying punishment prepared for the devil and his angels, lf it were the wealthy only whose families do not suffer the loss of such folly as spoken of above the idea of a gambling den would not seem quite so bad to use from an earthly view, but on the other hand, does it not seem a horrid thing? oh you say men ao not have to visit such places. True, but yet they are an unnecessary evil and let us hasten and banish them from our land forever while we are trying to live sober and godly In this present age.
