PAGE FOUR THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON . FRIDAY, APRIL 24, 1925 CapitalJournal Salem. Oreeon An Independent Newspaper published Kvery Evening Ricept Sunday Telephone Si; News 81 (iKOHGE PUTNAM, Editor and Publisher BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY When Christ, who ia our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. Cnlossiavs 8:4. We Report Progress Progress of raising the necessary money to finance the proposed $640,000 linen mill is slow, but we hope none the less sure. Of the $300,000 required from Salem, practically two thirds is in sight. The balance must be raised, some way or other, or else Salem might as well abandon efforts for indus trial progress and rest content in the lethargy of somnolent state capitals. It is a matter of regret that so many of our well-to-do investors, who put their money into stocks and bonds of distant places, and some of our large property owners, and a ' few of our most prosperous business men, who will benefit mc:t, are so lacking in public spirit and community enter prise that they refuse cooperation in this effort to secure the valley a great industry and the city a payroll but the mossbacks, like the poor, we have with us always, more perhaps than our share in Salem. What makes a mossback ? Our contemporary, the Wood burn Independent, says its the heavy atmosphere that is responsible in western Oregon and that it takes so long to get a new idea into an aborigines head, that the originator becomes similarly affected, loses ambition and pep and also becomes languid. It says : The newcomer in a western Oregon locality cornea from a lighter atmosphere, consequently for the nonce le full of vigor and bright thoughts. He is surprised at the leisure ot brain and body exemplified by many with whom he has cast his lot. He looks around, notices exceptionally rich resources, where there should be development and there Is none, becomes imbued with good, workable schemes, but (alters in giving vent to his imagination. Why? Because he finds the "aborigines', though weighed down with tons of atmonphcre until fishing time or when a vacation is due a stone wall as it were the greatest philosophic objectors on earth. The least whispered unearthing of discovery, he frars, will seem like a clarion call and summon an army of philosophers with spectacles through which a clear view cannot be obtained. So our knocking philosophers have their myopic spectacles on and are doing their best to build the community by tearing down, to attract capital by driving it out, and to encourage enterprise by pe: ;imistic prediction of financial failure, and really showing some pep in the only way they ever show it, preventing somebody else from doing something. Nevertheless, we are glad to report progress and predict eventual success, and believe that Salem will make good in financing the linen mill because we have more live ones than dead ones. TODAY'S CROSS WORD PUZZLE Be Sports for Once Again we have talk of a recall being invoked against Governor Pierce by "sportsmen", this time because he removed one of his own appointees, Ben Dorris, as game com missioner, without giving any reason. An equally good man was appointed, so the service hasn't suffered, if it did lose its leading kluxer. Perhaps the Klan, or its corpse, figures on taking its embalmed recall petition of two years ago out of storage. Of course the removal of Dorris was politics, but the game commission itself is politics and exists to furnish a fat payroll for an army of heelers who do little except travel about at public expense enjoying the scenery in 'summer and playing pinochle in winter. The entire game machine could be abol ished without materially affecting wild life or our rapidly dwindling game resources. The Capital Journal does not believe in the recall, tho there exists real causes enough, but the removal of a disloyal appointee for double-crossing the appointor, is not among them. The "sportsmen" voted almost unanimously for the governor and ought to be sport.8 enough for once to take their own medicine and pretend to like it. If they don't, they will get a second dose.

"At the time I first met her 1 was only an unknown moving pic ture actor; no one believed In my ideals, my Ideas or my dreams un til I met Lissa. "What had I to offer her? What had I that would equal her tender heart, her sweet soul, hr clever mind and her fabulous wealth? I had nothing except my rlncere ad miration and absolute devotion." Lille glunce-J out to the woman in the patio. Her faco was raised to heaven. Her arms were out- ntretohe1. Her face waa transfig ured. She was t'ne radiant picture of life, of youth, of joy.
