The chief beauty of a city lies not in its structures of iron
and brick, but in its avenues of shade trees, its green lawns,
its shrubbery, its flowers and vines. Without these, a city
becomes dingy, dirty and unattractive. Consequently every
effort should be made to preserve the beauty that nature
bestows.
When man erects an unsightly rectangular structure of
stone and cement, nature, if given a chance, hides its uncouth-j
ness with creeping green that redeems its commonplaceness, ! the companionship of a kindred

American Legion. Special ar
rangements have been mane with
authorities for the burial of dead
soldiers on Sunday, contrary to the
rules of the local cemetery,
A man can destroy in an hour what it took nature a hun
dred years to grow and it is this spirit of vandalism, this
needless and wonton destruction of natural beauty that has
made wastes of once fair regions and makes American cities
so unattractive and ugly. It is because the sturdy pioneers
that founded Salem had an eye for the beautiful and pre
served so much of the graceful garb of green that nature had
decked this fertile resrion in, that our city is so attractive.

The ivy on the city hall came from cuttings from the ivy
clad structures of Harvard University, which in turn came
from the famous ivy covered towers of Cambridge Univer
sity in Enirland. What though the ivy has historic associa
tions and for many years has striven to hide and beautify an
otherwise ugly structure? It has served its purpose, is an
evesore in this commercial age and must go.
It is to be hoped however that the council reconsiders its
. , , , .a . 1 a J
hasty action. Such vandalism should not De toierateu in a
community that prides itself upon its beauty. For the ivy is
really a fine and sturdy old vine and a source of pleasure to
all who have an eye for beauty outside tne council.

"And ye shall teach them your children." Duet. 11-19.
Many parents blame bad company when their boys and girls go
wrong usually they have an alibi ready If the suggestion is made
that perhaps they were not strict enough with John or too slack
with Mary. Fault often ls found with the teacher, and this com
plaint is made that the police authorities allowed certain plays or
dance halls that started the convalescent fast astray. Some of the
rniui mv be worthv of a little consideration, but taken at large
the fault ls mostly. If not entirely, faulty parenthood. The problem
of rearing children is very old. Cain slew Abel and even in early
contents w read of daughters who were a curse. Tho condition was
quite alarming 3.J72 years ago this summer. The youngsters were
resisting Nea with their turbulence; they had no respect for age nor
for the church; the boys drank and gambled and were only seconded
by the girls who even then delighted In wearing scanty attire and
much Jewelry, with considerable painting and eye-brow adjustment
