" With or without offense to friends or foes I sketch your world exactly as it goes.' Mr. Salem, Landlord Inquiry inspired by a search for a suitable site for a cen tral storage ground and sheds for city equipment and surplus materials of the water, street and engineering departments ' reveals that the city of Salem itself is one of the largest prop erty holders within and immediately adjacent to the corpor ate limits and that hundreds of dollars are being lost each year through exemption of this property from taxation. Inspection of the records discloses that the city holds title to upwards of 200 pieces of property, exclusive of those used for parks and other municipal purposes. Most of these have been acquired in satisfaction of delinquent street as sessments and taxes. Aside from the incinerator site, the city has available for - storage yard facilities the 18-acre sewage disposal plant site . just outside the north city limits, valued at $5255 ; the city barn property at 13th and Ferry streets valued at S1000: a ' half block along the north bank of Shelton ditch just west of 12th street, and a block of river front property between Court and Chemeketa streets. It is indeed strange if out of all of these properties be longing to the city the water department could not find a lo cation for its storage yard without invading a Class A resi dential zone, or if by disposing of some of its unused and tax exempt holdings, even at sacrifice prices, the city could not finance the construction of properly located central storage iaclllties. A Politician Has An Idea . It is so seldom that candidates for public office have any- tninjr specific and constructive to offer in their pre-election platforms that the germ of a legislative idea contained in a proposal advanced by H. R. (Farmer) Jones, Marion county legislative candidate, is interesting in its possibilities for de velopment of a market outlet for Oregon's fruits and berries. Jones proposes, if elected and through others if defeated, . to introduce a bill restricting the sale of all fortified wines to legal liquor permit holders through state stores, and requir ing that all naturally fermented wines having an alcoholic content of less than 14 percent sold by licensed private deal ers shall be made only of fruits grown in the state. By such regulations he proposes to: 1 Stimulate berry and fruit production and stabilize the demand for these products by encouraging the establishment of wineries with their accompanying payrolls. a Promote temperance by restricting the sale of strong wines and ' prohibiting their sale to minors. Jones would pattern his law on the one in force in the state of Washington, where 48 wineries are in operation, using as much as 23,000,000 pounds of fruit annually and having a payroll of $650,000. Farmers in that state were paid . as high as $200 a ton for loganberries last year, he asserts, and the price of wine grapes was advanced from $10 to $40 a ton. Whether or not the scheme is practicable In its entirety irom a legal standpoint matters little. Even in modified form it would undoubtedly accomplish two desirable objectives curtail the present evils incident to the unrestricted sale of fortified wines and encourage the development of a payroll industry supplying a market for Oregon farm products now largely going to waste. A Dog's Life jj 1':"."".""""'" By Beck " ii mi si BehinmIi By IulMalixdr The Fireside Pulpit REV. E. S. HAMMOND "A child left to himself will cause his mother shame." Prov. 29:15. Moffatt, - One day when I was 10 years old my teacher displeased me. It was Friday forenoon, and he told ma I could stay In at recess because of some mischief I had done. I did not like to stay in at recess and so. when noon came, I made a great decision. I decided that I would drop out of school for the time being. Consequently the Friday afternoon session found me missing. The folks were away from home that day, my truancy was unobserved by them. But Monday morning when school tune came I made no move toward getting ready. Presently mother asked me why I did not start I told her I had decided not to go to school any more that sea son. She brushed that important decision aside as if It were a fly buzzing around her, and she told me to get my hat and start. I went. When mother spoke like that, there was but one thing for me to do, and that was to mind. As I look back over the years I am glad for mother's firmness. I can recall but very few times when she punished me, but she expected me to obey. She did not try to coax me to go to school that day, she did not argue with me, nor did she offer to pay me for my obedience. I respect and honor my mother. Had she coaxed me to do my duty, I should hav loved her because she was my moth er. But the respect I now have for her I never could have felt. I recall a boy whose mother died when he was four or five years old, and some Indulgent aunts brought nun up. As a 'teen-age youth think he was the most selfish, disa greeable fellow I ever dealt with. As he grew older he got into bad com pany, and had to leave America to escape the consequences of his blunders. He died years ago In mid dle life of a tropical fever, due to the climate where he had expa triated himself. Many mothers think that love takes tile place of firmness, and obedience will come by coaxing. This is a sad mistake. Such sentimental love awakens contempt instead of respect and obedience. And the child who does not learn to obey In the home will have no end of trouble when facing the laws of society, of the state, and the laws of the phy sical and moral life. I thank God this mother's day for a ' mother who taught ma to obey.
