Isaak Walton 'League
A movement is' on foot among nature lovers and sports
men of Salem to organize a local branch of the Isaak Walton
League, pledged to work for the preservation and restora
tion, as far as possible, of the outdoors of our fathers. It
deserves success so that the perils that threaten forests,
streams and wild life in our own vicinity may be syetemati
2ally overcome.
The organization takes its name fro.ni the most famous of
anglers and prince of sportsmen, the author of "The Corn-
pleat Angler" whose gentle memory ungiana nas nonorea in
Westminster Abbey, where he lies in eternal sleep with the
great of the nation. The league was formed in Chicago in
1922 bv a urroun of nationally known, far-seeing sportsmen
and has grown amazingly, having chapters all over the
country. Its officials serve without pay and it publishes a
monthly magazine "Outdoor America" to which the greatest
out-doors writers contribute without pay in appreciation of
the cause.
Among the accomplishments of the League during its brief
career are :
Saving the Superior National forest from automobile roads which
would have destroyed lte solitude and made it a scenic highway In
stead of a wildernoHs and canoo course.
Fathored and passed tho upper Mississippi Wild Life and Fish
Refuge bill, redeeming 342,000 acres of fish spawning ground aud
migratory bird refuges.
Rescued the last herd of oik in the Jackson Hole county, Wyom
ing, iium Biurvuuun mm uuairuuuuii.
Secured In many stales passage and enforcement of laws recti
fying polluted conditions of streams, restocked strcaniB with fish and
helped guard against forest flro.
The powers of state and national organizations are back
of the local organizations and cooperate in any program a
local survey determines necessary for the locality.
The Isaak Walton League differs from other sportsmen
and game organizations, in that it is not in politics, has no
political affiliations,, and works for the preservation of the
sources of supply, and not for spoils of office.
care of It, really."
Mary worked till after three,
then a splitting headache called
her to account.
"I'll have to go to lunch before
I wrlto these, Mr. Blake," she said.
'I'll stay late and finish them."
"Oh, say, I forgot about -your
lunch hour; I hardly ever eat In
the middle of the day too busy,"
he exclaimed, "You run along and
have a cup of tea and do the,se
when you get back. There's a good
restaurant on the corner here."
There wan, but Mary did not go
to It. She knew that she could not
afford U. She was to lenrn through
many euch incidents that Blake
had no idea of money; he spent
lavishly and then economized with
Quite as much enthusiasm. She
learned, too, that working for a
man who had just gone into busi
ness for himself was quite differ
ent from working for a large firm
where there were plenty of people
to look after the office work.
She ate at a cafeteria, eating
food that she had not particularly
like because everything elo was
gone. Back to tho office, to work
again It was six o'clock before
she was through. Blake had gone
off to the factory again, aftor giv
ing her a key to the office and tell
ing her he'd be late the next morn
ing. She had told Celia that she would
bring the things for dinner; now
she wished ehe hadn't. It
would be a relief to drop Into a
little tea-room she know of where
she could get dinner for seventy
five cents more than she could
afford, In the present state of her
finances, but ahe was so tired and
so hungry!
She got home at loft, with her
few supplies under her arm, to
find Celia busy getting dinner.
"I waited and waited," she ox
plained, reproachfully, "and then
r Just dashed out and got 'some
things myself chops and peaa, and
French pastry for dessert."
Woll, that was all right of course
Mary told herself; she'd boucht
chbh and bacon and they'd keep.
But the chops, It proved, had been
vory expensive, and Celia, knowing
nothing about meat, had taken just
whatever tho butcher gave her
ahoulder chops, quite fat, tough
and stringy.
"That's Just the way with trying
to help out. I'll never do it again,"
Celia declared. "I made a mcas of
thing when I was Just trying
hard." i
"Oh Celia, you didn't; truly,' you
did awfully well." Mary was so
tired that she wanted to flop down
on her bed and sleep, but instead
sho spent half an hour cheering
Celia up, washed the dishes, dried
them and put them away, and list
ened to Celia's actount of her day
at the new office.
But she was not too tired to be
thankful, as she tumbled into bed
at last, for the happiness that llad
come her wuy.
Tomorrow Interesting Developments.
Portland, Ore., Dec. 10 (A.P.
Load limits for trucks and auto
mobiles will not be limited on state
highways leading out of Portland.
This action was taken by the
state highway commission today
after a long discussion. Highway
Engineer Roy Klein advocated
placing limits at this lime, but It
was decided not to take action at
least until the test case in the fed
eral courts hero Is decided.
Tho commission refused permis
sion for stage companies to build
sheds or depots on the right of
way along the state highways. "If
they want to build sheds, let them
acquire land off the right of way,"
declared Commissioner W. H. Ma
lone, and his motion was carried.

Washington, Doc. 10. (AP)
Blame for laxity In enforcement
of the prohibition law cannot bo
placed solely on the government,
but part of It must bo assumed
by "reform leaders," who "slow
ed down and lot themselves be
put on tho defensive when they
should have advanced on all
fronts," Dr. Clarence Truo Wil
son, declared in his annual re
port read today to tho board of
temperance, prohibition and pub
lic morals of the Methodist Epis-,
copal church.
The report endorsed tho re-!
marks ot President Coolidgo In his
message to congress on tho eigh
teenth amendment, upheld tho
enforcement policy adopted by
Assistant Secretary Andrews of
the treasury and attacked the
men "with groat fortunes" who
are "doing all they can to break
down tho authority of the laws
to which they owe their lives,
their fortunes and their safety.1'
These men, Dr. Wilson assert
ed, store contralMind goods and
patronize bootleggers and thus
encourage anarchy, .

That 17 Cent Stamp
Postmaster General New has repented of his churlishness
in refusing to sanction at the behest of the Woodrow Wil
son Foundation, a memorial stamp commemorating the world
war president, and has tardily ordered the engraving of a
postage stamp bearing the likeness of the late executive.
The stamp is an ordinary one except for the denomination,
which most extraordinary, being for 17 cents.
The magnanimity and graciousness of the republican ad
ministration is therefore apparent to all. Whenever you buy
a 17 cent stamp, you will be visibly reminded of President
Wilson but -in spite of all the fool and freak postal rates,
you will probably never have occasion to buy one. In the
century and a half since the creation of the republic, history
records no instance of tho use of a 17 cents stamp and prob
ably, while stamp collectors may buy a few, none will ever
be used, so the public will not be reminded of something so
unpleasant .to Mr. Coolidgo as a democratic president.
If tho mystic number 13 had been selected it could have
been understood, for 13 was the late executive's lucky num
ber, but 17! Probably the grand old party's campaign psy
chologists were called into action and it was found by actual
tests that a 17 cents stamp was the most useless denomina
tion possible for tho postal service to issue.
