Both the house of bishops and the house of dep uties will go into executive session to day to select five new Protestant Epis copal bishops. The bishops began their session early while the deputies are holding off until late today.

HELD ELIBIBLE Friday night of Salem Week, which is next week, tho management of the Ho tel Marion will throw open the big building for the inspection of the pub- lie. There will be music nnd refresh ments from 8 until 10. At this time, also, the annex recently completed is to be formally opened, 'although it has been in use at least partly for a month. Members of the Oregon Hotel Men's association have already signified their Inton;,,.! nf Kni.,.. naUA..i I'..:.!.,.. It was Manager Miller's intention at j the outset to have a banquet and dance i but, because of Salem Week, he wishes I Snlcm people to visit the hostelry and see how a first class cstublishmejit is conducted. ' ' j Tho Hotel Marion is one of the sue- cessful enterprises of the city. Not far j from 1150,000 is invested in the plant 1 and equipment- Surely this is an in- j vestment which belongs to the entiro city and which deserves the support of every citizen. It i one of the things which will make Salem greater. That such nn undertaking can be car ried on successfully is, in itself, ample proof of the city's prosperity. The building of the new 40,000 annex with 41 rooms was forced because of incrcas-1 ing prosperity. . Do you believe in Snlcm? Do you be lieve in its future Take tho Marion for example. The company that oior ates it is made up of hard headed busi ness men men of large interests. Their belief in the city and its future impelled them to spend a good sized bundle of,' money to provide better accommoda tions for the trnveling public. Of course this will return to the investors ns a. result of tho good times now knocking nt the door. But the Marion company didn't wait for this prosperity; they did something to"bring it about. Salem Week, which the Hotel Marion company has selected in which to show tho public an establishment -of which nil may be justly proud, is dedicated to the work of .bringing the individual into harmony with the Commercial club and all organizations working to make the city bigger, better nnd busier and insure an era of substantial prosperity. Don't you believe you ought to do something to improve the city in which you make your home nnd in which you earn your living t You can do a small amount of good alone. You can do your best and do it without wasted effort when you line up with the men who have organized solely for the purpose of making the Capital City a better pluce to live in. a A commercial club is one of the best tools ever devised for helping a citv Look for this signature AO WW EetdytaErf mm LAST TIMES TODAY GOTHAM STOCK CO. With DONNA VICKROY and BERT PORTER in WITHIN THE LAW 4-Act Comedy Drama Popular Prices u ri en a new chapter in the history of crime rivaling the most gripping Sherlock Holmes fiction, is being studied in the case of Benton L. Barrett, aged farmer, who voluntorily confessed to beating to death his wife and her 17-ycar-old stepson. Detectives of the district attorney's office are seeking to answer these questions: Is Barrett lust now emerging from a hypnotic spell? Are Mrs. a. I.. Barrett and her sou Bavmond Wright really dcadf Or are they bidden out in some seclud ed place beyond the beaten track of af fairs! Why were the crunched up bones found on the Barrett farm those of a laboratory skeleton, not of freshly killed humans, as anatomists insist I It has been hinted by W. Ona Morton. Barrett's attorney, that the defense will try to prove Barrett was under a hyp notic spell, from which he is just re covering, and that he has really con fessed to a crime of which b is innocent-District Attorney Woolwine said to day that he will have an expert alien kt examine the man again. It is pointed out that aside from the prisoner's own hazy and contradictory confession, there is nothing but circum stantial evidence to prove he is actually a slayer. Oregon Agricultural College, Corval lis, Or., OcL HI That Johnny Parsons, sensational University of Oregon half back, who has been protested by the University of Washington, is eligible to compete is the belief of Dean A. B. Cordley, of the Oregon Agricultural College, who is a member of the ad visory committee of tho Pacific Coast Intercollegiate Conference. Dean Cordley bases his opinion on the fact that tho clause under which Coach Dobie is protesting Parsons lias a foot note attached which says that the rul ing shall not be retroactive, and the Oregon Aggie faculty member con strues this as applying to the entire clause and not To a part of it only. Inasmuch as the advisory committee settles all matters pertaining to dig it is unlikely that the protest University of Washington will ibility of tho hold.
