COMMUNTY PUBLICITY The annual Board of Trade get-together was a splendid sum Die of modern community publicity. f . . The point of enthusiasm was reached when long files ot dusi reus men had to be turned away. . . t t The Marion hotel dinin? rooVn, one of the largest in tne siaie, could not accommodate the crowds. , , i it,. nit, Salem has certainly shown a disposition to get out of the ruts, and her business men are pulling together Community publicity takes piace " whole, deliberately seeks to advertise "self. Salem is well known at home and somewhat known to the rest of the state as a city of life and enterprise The way the Southern Pacific trains run few of the thou sands of passengers going through see anything of Miem. The Capital Journal has evolved a plan for reaching to people who are traveling through our city witohut seeing it. The business part of the city, the finest buildings, the steel blocks that are going up are never seen by Re passing trains. With that point overcome Salem has certainly achieved pub licity. Many of the local merchnats are putting on sales at greatly reduced prices. This is the annual cleaning up time, and a ntue money will go a long ways in Salem about this time. Merchants are realizing that their greatest losses in business come from carrying over stock that should be sold off. That kind of stock depreciates on the shelves faster than profits on new lines win earn profits. Hence they propose to share their losses with the customer, and give him the benefit of the depreciation in advance of its actually occurring. o WHAT IS THE USE OF HOLLERING. THE GRAND "WSX Thursday, Friday, Saturday The Crowning Triumph of Moving Picture Pro duction in Three Reels, Featuring Miss Mabel Taliaferro l CINDERELLA 4 BOOSTERS GATHER. (Continued from Page 1.) Rodgers Good roads Ex-Mayor to congress. M. O. Buren They called me M. O'Brien at Albany. Choros. h. S. Glle I'd rather get in right Come on and hear, come on and hear on prunes than get In wrong as may- A great many people are coming to this office personally and writing about the way taxes are going up. , They start in hollering their heads off about the legislature, and want to know what can be' done about it. The state tax levy just made is for about three and a half million dollars as against a million three hundred thousand in 1911- ,., , n Well, what wa3 the last legislature, but the same old log-rolling bee that it has always been, and probably always will be. The senate and the house were organized by the "big inter ests," and the whole clerkship graft was worked over and over. A majority of the members go there for a graft and carry a lot of people with them, who must be provided with jobs. The new judgeships, new commissions, new deputysihps, new clerkships and new political lady's maids must be provided for. There is not the high sense of honor in politics that ought to prevail, and it is anything to get your hand in the public pocket. This taints our public affairs and the unfortunate property owner and taxpayer must pay the bill for the low moral stand ards. So what is the use of hollering, when we all know the same old game will be worked over and over, and it is called success ful politics. Salem retailers will send a strong delegation to the State Re tail Merchants' convention to be held at Medford Tuesday, Jan uary 16. This is the annual round-up of business men who gath er from all parts of the state to consider better business meth ods and perfect systems of doing business along lines of least resistance and most profit. There are undoubtedly large sums of monoy wasted by lack of organization, by wasteful processes of advertising, by unwise subscriptions exacted from merchants, by trying to carry a metropolitan display of wares in a cross roads community, and other weak points in modern merchandis ing. Every Salem man who can attend that convention should do so. He will come home with new ideas, new information of a practical character, worth ten times what the trip will cost him. COLLEGE PROFESSORS LEARNING TO FRY BACON. A special course in camp cookery, for "men only," at the Ore gon Agricultural College short course is attracting many men, a number of them members of the college faculty. The class meets twice a week in the domestic science labora tories, the professor of domestic science teaches the science of making flapjacks, cornpone and "ham and." At the first meeting the dean of the commerce school and the recorder of the faculties became expert in frving bacon and eggs. The commandant of the regimental corps of cadets, with one of the teachers of the art department and one of the public speak ing department, learned the intricacies of the succulent baked apple, and the baking powder biscuit a la camp oven. One.declared that he could not be expected to do his best wf.th out a pipe in his mouth, as he always smoked in camp. What are we coming to when the college professors are ging to be able to do the things that the uneducated people can do? It is gratifying to know that the victims of the so-called high er education are going to be able to do such things. They are learning what the ordinary working,man who has to live in the open has learned from boyhood up without going to college. After a while the higher-ups will be able to feed themselves without being helped and later on may learn to make their own living. There is hope for the country when the pnrfessijrs and salary drawers generally get so intelligent as to be able to fry eggs. Terhaps they will progress to the point where they can raise potatoes and chop cord wood and milk cows and feed pigs. But no man on the state payrolls should be allowed to go about an educational institution smoking a pipe. They should be furnished with a good brand of Oregon-made cigars to encourage home Industry. o CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT Mark cross between number and name of candidate. 1. 2. 3. 4. (....) (....) (....)

Oh, say can you see by the dawns early light What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming, And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting In air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Chorus. Oh, say, does the star spangled ban ner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave, Tls the star spangled banner, Oh, long may It wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. but Don't Take Me Home. Augustus J. McCann is a hen-pecked married man, He's been fighting with his wife since his married life began. One morning at half-past three, while out upon a spree, A motor knocked him down and out. and It nearly broke his knee. The chauffeur raised Mac's head, And he said "This man is dead," But when he said we'll take him home, McCann jumped up and said: "Please don't take me home." Chorns. Don't take me home, please don't take me home, Tell me what did I do to you? oo-oo- oo-oo. Have a little pity, I'm a poor married man, lit search of peace I roam, I'm with you in anything you do, but don't take me home. Responses by the Live Ones. Judge Bushey Good roads by 1920.

Sooanres More Widespread Than Ever Before Sew Care That Is Re markably Effective, Quick and Son-Injurious. From many sections of the Btate have come alarming news of the ex traordinary prevalence of rheumatism, which seems to be greater now than in any previous year. At the same time comes the news of many remarkable cures from a rem edy which has given astonishing re sults, both because of its quick action .,n . r,t ita harmless nature, and its well o v - we give it here for the benefit of our readers, after full Investigation as to its reliability. As an example of the astonishing results of this remedy, Mr. J C. Cole, of Flint, Michigan, the well-known tai lor, who was in bed wun muscuim rheumatism for almost six weeks, ana his limbs were so sore that he could not touch them. He decided on Friday to take "Fuss." The following Monday, ; three days later, he was at his store j attending to business, and has been there every day since. We have col lected details of over 1000 cures of this remarkable remedy. "Fuss.' which Is the name of the cure, came into prominence some time ago because of its adoption for the national nsi against rheumatism. It gives Imme diate relief, Is guaranteed under the pure food and drugs act of congress, and contains no morphine, chloral, co caine, ether, chloroform or any nar cotic. The pains and stiffness In the muscles and joints simply disappear. It is equally successful against gout, lumbago and kidney trouble, and is a positive antidote for uric acid. For sale by D. J.

Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA Women's Secrets JH Ml There is one man in the United States who has perhaps heard more women's secrets than any other man or woman in the country. These secrets are not secrets of guilt or shame, but the secrets of suffering, and they have been confided to Dr. R. V. Pierce in the hope and expectation of advice and help. That few of these women have been disappointed in their ex pectations is proved by the fact that ninety-eight per cent, of all women treated by Dr. Pierce have been absolutely and altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if the cases treated were numbered by hundreds only. But when that record applies to the treatment of more than half-o- mil lion women, in a practice of over 40 vears. it is phenomenal. and entitles Dr. Pierce to the gratitude accorded him by women, as the 6nt 0! ' specialists in the treatment of women's diseases. 1 Every sick woman may consult Dr. Pierce by letter, absolutely without ' charge. All replies are mailed, sealed in perfectly plain envelopes, without , any printing or advertising whatever, upon them.
