With me, there is quite a bit of sentiment connected with thai place, having attended school there when it was known as East Salem school, then teaching two years previous to tne building ol Washington, and later sending our children there, I feel it should never he used for any other pur pose but for a school. In fact, I understand ft cannot he used for any other purpose, having been donated to the city for a ochool by Dr. Wilson and can not be e -J Id without permission from the Wilson heirs. It the building Is unsafe, make it safe or wreck it. If unsanitary, ji i lace can always be made sani tary. Right now ft Is needed for a primary school. Keep the grounds and bui.d there some day instead of giving I away and in a year or two buy property at a higher prices and not so favorably situated. As to accidents from a train, there never woe nut one, and that as "Old Timer" says, was 38 years ago. Children are educated now to never get hurt by anything as slow as a train. It may be the voice of the school board to sell this property for a paltry sum, bat it left to the people, it never would happen. MRS. HETTIE E. FRY. February 26, 1925. To the Editor: Replying to Mr, Purdy's letter of Femhruary 26, I wish to call attention to a few facts. Numbers never have been an infallible sign of right eousness! Jesu6, Paul, Luther Hush, Wyclif, Wesley, Fox, Galleo, Columbus, and a host of others were In the minority, but the truths they held were unconquer able. "If all the world," says John Stuart MIHb, "minus one man. were of one opinion, they would no more be justified in silencing that one mun than he, it he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind." This is a profound truth. The truth of Mr. Purdy's argu ment for his mission to the legiti lature is not augmented by a mil lion coleagues. ne offers no rea son for such a measure other than the prominence ot his supporters and the interests of our Father .vho art in heaven.' " Briefly, I maintain he was not there In His interests at all. No .nan led by thu Spirit ot God ever yet asked for a law to make men religious. The minute a man does ask such a law he acknowledges he no longer has the power that is promised to those led by that Spirit. If he was led by that all powerful Spirit he would not need the power of the law and the very request proves he knows of the lack of power to consumate hie purpose. When he asks this aid he says: "I consider the law to have more power than th spirit that actuates me and without Its help I will fail!" Therein he turn; away from the God he professes to worship and asks the state to do for him what God either cannot or will not do. Benjamin Franklin said: "When religion Is good t will take care of itself; when It is not able to take care ot itself, and God does not see fit to take of it, so that ft has to appeal to the state for aid, it Is evidence to my mind that Us cause is a bad one." Any man Is morally justified In disregarding such a law as well as constitutionally justified. Moral ly, because of Ufhlical precedent For CHRONIC COUGHS WntiP. J. C. Perry Drutr Store To-wit: The three Hebrew chil dren were Tindlcated in their re fusal .to obey the law to bow down to the Image by being brought forth uninjured from the-flame. Constitutionally, because the flrit amendment to our great con stitution says "that congress (that is where Mr. Purdy was) shal make no law respecting an estab lishment of reliigon, or prohibit ing the free exercise thereof. Such a law would be in respsct to an establishment ot the Christian religion. The proposed measure is sulcid al. For the same power that ciu compel men to put up signs re specting religion can compel them to take them down for the same reason. Suppose Mr. Purdy and bis esteemed colleagues succeeded In establishing: ts precedent in our legislature. Then they could compel me or bira to wear tne jame prayer, or any other religious emblem they saw fit. They couui also say we could not wear them. The time may come when legis lators will be committed to such a course for there are many stron? organitations lobbying for It, but they are establishing a precedent that will permit any other success ful clique to do to them as they are doing to others. Mr. Purdy would not for a minute consent to have congress dictato to him that he must hang images of Buddha on the walls of his home, yet, in the name of Him who said "all things whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, do ye even bo unto them," he asks con greas 'o do it to someone else. JAY RODERICK HE SPAIN. 789 Locust Ave., Salem. To the Editor: lieing a business man of the city of Salem a-nd feel ing that it is a duty and a common rlfjht to raise my voice in protest when the conduct of our civic at fairs is contrary to my honest be llefs, I wish at this time to enter vehement opposition to the pres ent one-hour parking limit on our down town thoroughfares. Your contention, Mr. Editor, that 'few farmers have been guil ty and farmers generally favor the hour limit," doesn't hold goou when you consider the following, Statistics will show that the farm ers aro wi the minority insofar as traffic violations are concerned in cities that havo traffic problems to contend with. The reason for this is that the average farmer Is "law-shy". In other worda our farmer friend so thoroly protests the idea of appearing in petty courts to answer to traffic viola tlona of any kind that he doesn't run chances like the calloused city man who takes traffic repri mands as a daily course and thinks nothing of it. J uft allow the farmer visitor two hours In which to transact his buisncss while his "Lizzie" is hold Ing down a very small space on our amply wldo streets and said farmer will not be scared to death every time he ventures to town. And again, do you support that a farmer drives ten, twenty or per haps thirty miles for the privilege of parking his car sixty minutes? Suppose for instance that the farm or (or other visitor) must neces ftarily be detained In a dentist's of Cice; or with tho doctor or engage in that long and wearisome busi ncss of interviewing his lawyer or favorite abstractor? It would seem to me that instead of allowing htm more parking space for an hour's time, he would far more appre elate less parking space and more time to do business. The two hour limit would hit the clerks and business who arc In habit of making a garage of the streets as effectively aa the hour limit. Here In Salem ne have practi cally all out of doors to run around in, insofar aa streets are concerned, and it la surely stretch ing matters to compare our bread avenues with the dinkey alleys that Portland calls "streets." About the only Inconvenience that Is met with hers in Salem Is in the case of a pedestrian crossing the street he has so far to run, even then the auto 1st finds plenty of room to miss And Sttrtttkt Ht tfte Foot-Bam 3-- ALLEYS foot-ease The AntUeptlo, Healing Powder for Urtd, fwolien, smarting, sweating feet.

Very trulv yours, HARltV M. LEW. Editor Journal: I notice an ar tide in the Journal from Percy A. Clipper stating that we people who so bitterly fought the drain age district plan would not be flooded if we had adopted the drainage district plan. I would like to dleagree with Mr. Cupper on these points. "First." We are not complaining about the water that happens to be in our yard. "Second," That mill creek does not affect our basements In the leant. Third. We people who are com plaining are not living on a grav el soil as etated by Mr. Cupper but a good heavy clay soil snd none of our basements have been dug deep enough to reach the gravel, which proves that no wat er reaches our basements, except which la caused by seepage from our yards, which comes In very slow, and if the sewers were In good working condition It would amply take care of all the seepage water euch as fallen this winter. 1 would like to ask Mr. Cupper why there has been no floods In the low-lands to speak of thie winter where the drainage dis trict would be mostly affected, and we on the high lands are flooded. According to Mr. Cup pers article we would be led to believe that all our basements would be connected up to this open ditch drainage district, which W3 all know would not be the case. I have a well 4 ft. from the hank of the creek and 20fcet deep and Is not affected by the creek in the least which proves that our basements are not af fected by creek water, the creek has been this high many times before and no water came In to our basements which also' proves that the creek has nothing to do with it. When the low lands aro not flooded and the high lands are, a ditch from a halt to a mile from our basements would do us no good unless storm sewers were put in at least below our base ments, and thie drainage district plan provides for no such relief.
