Last Publication Nov. 8, 1917. “Merchants of Mercy” is no fantastic name, but repre sents a real desire to aid humanity. The merchants of mercy are the proprietors of the “Superfluity Shops” of the United States. The idea is simple but effective. To raise money for the Red Cross in many cities and towns are establishing “superfluity shops” where contributions of anything salable are received and sold and the proceeds used to carry on the work of the mercy under the lead of the Red Cross. In England, Canada, Australia, New Zea land and other, lands, as well as parts of our own country, these shops have brought great sums to this organization of Universal Mercy. Among the things that have been contributed in such shops are vegetables, clothing, jewelry, dishes, china, glassware, books, silverware, laces, furni ture, shoes, embroidery, canned fruits and jellies, rubber bpots, fresh fruit, postage stamps, pipes, salt, flour, rock salt, baking powder, galvanized iron pipe, tobacco, flash lights, ink, penis, underwear, and a thousand other strange articles. These things are collected and offered for sale in a store fitted up through contributions—with out a cent of expense to the “Superfluity Shop”. Every farnily has some salable articles it can contribute, wane the “superfluity” contributions from a community might aggregate a great sum when turned into cash. Of course only articles of real worth are desired. Portland is putting this plan into practice and will soon have its Sup erfluity Shop open every day. In small towns like Aur ora a modified plan could be put into operation to raise a neat sum by holding a “Superfluity Sale” of contributed goods on certain days monthly. The plan which has had almost a world wide success ought to succeed here. Shall we try it? SOS City Attorney Macy of Salem has pom ted out that certain supreme court decisions have rendered all traffic ordinances of Oregon cities null and void. He declares that the new motor vehicle law which went into effect August 1, 1917, provides that local authorities may limit by ordinance, rule or regulation, HEREAFTER ADOPT ED, the speed of vehicles within their respective corporate limits. But it also specifically declares that all' such br- dfiiances, rules and regulations now in force (before Aug ust 1, 1917) are to be of no validity or effect. This being true, the present Aurora ordinance limiting the speed of motor vehicles to 15 miles per hour, is invalid and of fio force until re-enacted by the city council. Hence the speeders may “go to it” to their hearts content. It has been reported that Ben F. West, now Marion county assessor, will he- a candidate - for - the -Republican nomination for state treasurer at the primary election next Spring, Ben is ambitious and has developed into a, most efficient officiahas well as a politican of no mean ability. If he makes the racé, his ability and personal popularity will carry him a long way toward a successful conclusion of his campaign. ' His Biggest Failure. * John Jacob Astor was asked one day what was the largest amount of money lie had ever made In one transaction. This he declined to answer, but said that he would tell the largest sum that he failed to make. With De Witt Clin ton and GoUverneur Morris, he said, he had planned to buy Louisiana from France and to sell it to the United States government, retaining the pub lic domain and charging 2% per. cent commission. They changed their minds, and Mr. Astor said that he lost $30,000,- 000 by failing to go into the deal. Near a Storm Center. Flatbush—-I’m sorry I built right here.
