There was n certain fellow, and he

But the patient still persisted with

Yes It was gone, hut si III our friend

For there were several curious

And while he liad the cough he

By collecting and reclaiming
waste paper the Solvation Army
ngures that It conserves evory year
9000 acres of standing timber. It
does more than that. It solves for
thousands of homes the question of
what to do with old Saturday Even

safety razor blades.
Can't the Salvation Army, or
some other philanthropic organiz

Executive Committee Of
General Board Gives
Approval To Plan Of
Mooving School.
Word reached Salem yesterday
that the executive committee of
the general education board of the
Methodist church has approved
the plan as submitted by Presi
dent Hickman of Kimball college
of theology to move Kimball to
Seattle and establish It near the
campus of the University of Wash
fngton.
The action of the executive
committee does not commit the
general education board, and does
not mean that the Bchool will be
moved, but nevertheless is taken
as a definite Indication of "which
way the wind blows.'' The com
mittee met Thursday, Dr. Hick
man of Kimball appearing before
it. It Is understood that Dr. Hick
man went east some time ago
largely for the purpose of putting
the matter of moving Kimball be
fore the commitee, and interview
ed a number of its members priv
ately before the committee had Us
session.
The definite question as put up
to the committee was whether
the general education board could
be depended upon to continue and
even increase financial support
now being given Kimball, If the
school should be moved to Seattle.
In indicating that the board would
give an affirmative answer, the
executive committee reversed its
usual policy, which has been to
support theological schools only
when attached to denominational
colleges. At Seattle Kimball
would be attached to the Univer
sity of Washington.
Definite action on the matter
will be taken at tho official ses
sion of the education board itself
early next year.
Meanwhile it Is believed that
efforts will be made to interest
prominent Methodists in the north
west, particularly in and around
Seattle, in the proposed change.
At a meeting In Seattle a short
time ago some hope was held out
that Kimball might be adequate
ly supported if moved to that city.
The question of local support is
considered to be of more import
ance than the action of the gen
eral education board, although
without both it is believed that it
will be Impossible to move the
school.

Deduction Proposals To
Be Conducted On Non

Leaders Assert.
Washington, Nov. 9. (A. P.)
Practically united support both in
the house and senate of the tux
reduction bill now in preparation
by the house ways and means com
mlttce, an . almost unprecedented
prospect is now confidently ex
pected by house leaders.
With virtually all of the vital
and controversial points of tax re
duction already acted on by the
committee, Chairman Green said
today that a non-partisan meas
ure, "bearing almost unanimous
support" seems certain.
For the first time since the war.
republicans and democrats in com-
mitteo have worked out their dif
ferences, so far at least, and
agreed on the main provisions of
a revenue bill. In doing this the
committee has approved some of
tho main proposals of Secretary
Mellon and rejected otherB and the
spirit of compromise was further
reflected in the approval in modi
fied form of the proopsal of Rep
resentative Garner of Texas, rank
ing democrat for increased per
sonal exemptions ,
Administration support ot the
changes so far approved seems
certain, despite .the rejection oc
Secretary Mcllon's suggestion fur
repeal of the estate or inheritance
tax.

Since the last report on tho let
ters received by "Jordan," the wo
man who advertised in the Capital
Journal for a huband whose name
she could use for three months, of
fering to pay him $400 for the

Threee of the letters came by

A new candidate looms up In
Rapid City, S. D. He however,
wants a written contract with the

City before the parson Is called.
Ho also require that Jordan meet
him in Rapid City prior to the

Number Ten
Dear Editor: What would I do
if I were a councilman? I would
be a-regulnr Kaiser Bill. I would
run the whole city or I would re
sign. The first think I would do
would be to put all councilman on
a salary of at least five thousand
a year you can't expect to get
good men to run a city for fun,
just. Imagine such men as Nes
Bush or Tom Llvesley or myself
taking a councilman job without
a salary.
Next I would stop all trains
from running through our city
after night bo all our present
councllmen could sleep without
being disturbed. Next I would
buy or lease Minto's Island and
give It the Marion hotel Co., so
they could move their building
over there where It would be
quiat.
rtext would be our bridge pro
That the R. A. Pilcher chain of
department stores, which ie to be
established on the coast in 23 dif
ferent cities with eight stories al
ready in operation, is considcriug
Salem as the point for establish
ment of one of the stores, has beeu
learned, since representatives of
the company were here recently
negotiating with F. D. Bligh, man
ager of the T. i. Bligh estate, for
location in buildings which
Bligh plans to erect at State and
High strcetB where the Union Oil
company gas station and other
buildings now stand.
It is understood that R. A. Pil
cher, himself, head of' tho stores,
contemplates being in Salem in
the near future to further discuss
the negotiations. Pilcher. it is
understood, formerly was one of
the executive heads with the J. C.
Penney & company, chair of storee
now in aperation throughout the
country, and comes to the new
project well equipped.
Stores already are In operation
In Tacoma, Bremerton and Yaki
ma Wash., Klamuth Falls and Eu
gene, in Oregon, and Stockton, in
California. Pilcher is now in Cali
fornia, it is stated. In addition to
the stores already in operation, a
site has been purchased in Aber
deen and locations are being
sought in Seattle and Everett,
Wash.

"I have made Quite a thorough
canvas of Salem business men,"

years."

it only costs about two thousand
