SOCIETY
Because of her unusual position as the
'only woman in the Twenty-ninth legis
lative assembly of the state of Oregon,
am the first woman to preside over the
j horse of representatives from the speak
ier's chair, Mrs. Alexander Thompson
vesterday received a telegram from the
New York World asking for her opinion
on the great crisis that now confronts
the nation. The telegram reads as fol
lows: ".Mrs. Alexander Thompso, State
j Capitol, Salem, Ore. Will you kindly
wire collect 10U words your view of the
international crisis ami the duty of
American men and women. The World."
In reply to this request Mrs. Thomp
son sent the following:
"The American nation is a peaceful
j nation. Never has it takeu up arms ex
eept in defense of right. Never has it
drawn a sword except at the behest of
'Teason. Never has American blood been
ehed except in a just cause. The fact
that we are not recognized as a great
military nation assures the world at
j largo that we love peace. Since the
beginning of tho frightful war in Eu
rope the United States, through its
matchless leader, Woodrow Wilson, has
stood for pence with honor and while
assuming an attitude of sympathy for
stricken Kurope has steadfastly pre
served a neutral position.
"Prudence would dic tate that this po
sition be maintained. But the exigenc
ies of the present grave crisis which
confronts the nation seem to call for a
reversal of our attitude. Clouds and
dnrkness are around us; our nation's
honor is at stake, and this is no time
tor petty fault finding and criticism.
The president, I believe, has taken the
only honorable stand possible under the
circumstances. His position in the mat
ter calls tor patriotic ami loyal support
of every man and woman in America
today."

One day of rest ia seven was the
theme that occupied the attention of
the house committee on health and pub
lic morals last night in the house of
representatives on the subject of Rep
resentative Gore's bill to make Sun
day a day of rest. Several representa
tive business men of Portland were
present to speak against the measure
being reported back to the house fav
orably and others pressed the matter
lor a favorable report.
Rev. G. L. Tufts, superintendent of
the weekly day of rest league, spoke
in iavor or tne mil anu said that its
provisions did not apply to the sale of
drugs, medicines, gasoline, or other nec
essary articles, nor did it apply to the
members of any religious sects who ob
served another day than Sunday.
He declared it was framed to aid the
husinessman who is shut up in his store
six days of the week and mostly sev
en. He asserted that man needed one
day of rest in seven as it would pro
mote the public, health and give men a
chance to enjoy their families. He said
it aided public morals and that one
clay of rest was needed to preserve the
welfare of the country and insure its
prosperity.
Rev. H. G. Thurston, of the Seventh
Day Adventist church, denied the right
under the constitution to legislate in
this manner. He quoted an authority
that, stated that "governments have no
right to punish a citizen whether he
professes a religion or none." How can
a religious standard be set up and then
punish those who disobey. The burden
will fall on the non-Christian. He said
the power to legislate was over things
temporal and uot over things spiritual.
Ho said the proposed legislation was
wrong and against the highest instincts
of man. He declared all Sunday legis
lation a result of pagan Rome.
Carl Gregg Doney, of Willamette uni
versity, took up the cudgels in favor
of the Sunday closing law and declar
ed the opponents of the measure were
tryiug to raise a religious issue that
was not in it. The measure was intend
ed to aid the poor man, the worker,
who is compelled by force of economic
necessity to work seven days in the
week. He quoted the historianMeauley
who said that it was because of the
observance of Sabbath for over 300
years that our civilization was firmly
founded.
He declared that one day of rest is
written in the bible of human nature
and that the product of the man who
works seven days is less in quantity and
poorer in quality. He said the men
work not because their employers are
hardhearted but because they are press
ed to the limit. He said it was not re
ligious legislation but humanitarian.
Dan Kellaher of Portland, charged
that the people did not wish Sunday
(dosing, that in Portland they voted it
down by large majorities. He cited elec
tion figures in Portland and showed
that 10,297 voted for Sunday closing
and 23,502 against. In California, he
said they voted Sunday closing down
by a vote of 290,674 for and 457,890
against. He declared that people all
over Oregon from, the ranges of the
eastern part to the cities of the west
ern did not want such legislation.
Other speakers against the measure
were J. E. Dunn of Portland; W. T.
Hume, ex-district attorney for Multno
mah county; C. E. Monroe, president,
of the Independent retail grocers league
of Portland, and Mr. Hayward, a Sev
enth Day Adventist.
Mrs. Ada Wallace XTnruh, noted pro
hibition worker, spoke in behalf of the
bill, and Rev. Tufts closed the argu
ment. Regarding a statement of Rev.
Tufts concerning certain amendments
up before the people in Portland, Dan
Kellaher point blankly charged that it
was an untruth, and Rev. Tufts de
clared his statement was made on the
authority of one who was supposed to
know.
The committee took the matter un
der advisement.

did not indicate whether Spain has yet

Wilson's invitation to all neutrals to

action awaits Germany's receipt of the
note which Spain will send today.

Rest Day Rallies Held
Two bills now before the legislature
the one day of rest in seven (S. B. 146)
and the Sunday rest (H. B. 22) bills
were discussed Sunday by Dr. G. h.
Tufts of Portland at ihe Leslie M. E.
church in the morning and at the South
Salem Friends church at night.
In discussing these measures, Dr.
Tufts said in part:
"Tho laws or health demand that all
workers shall have one dav of rest in
seven. Medical science teaches that he
who labors every day will shorten his
life by ten years on the average. Vet

on our railways and other public util
ities, in our work shops and factories,
in our stores, homes and hotels, and in
many trades and avocations of the peo
ple. Our text declares that, 'Six days
may work bo done, but the seventh is
the Sabbath of rest, holv unto the
Lord.'
"As far as practicable the weekly
rest day should fall on the clay set
apart by the people as their day of
worship, whether it be Saturday or Sun
day. There is no need of mercantile bus
iness being conducted niore than six
dav of the week. The proposed law
gives the Jew and the Adventist their
choice of Saturday or Sunday closing.

A WOMAN'S VOCATION
One of our modern writers has said,
"A woman is as efficient in business
as a man when she is."
The reason why sometimes she is not
so efficient is that her health may
fail. But the wise business woman
knows now what to do when attacked
by the ailments peculiar to the so
called "weaker sex." That, greatest

PAY-LESS AS WELL AS PAIN-LESS DENTISTRY
THAT'S PROTECTED
No greater evidence of the solid character and good
faith of the Painless Parker dental organization
can be found than in the strength of the guar
antee given every one of its patients. The hop-skip-and-a-jump
tooth-tinkering carpet-bagger
couldn't offer any such assurance to his customers,
and be justified in making that kind of sweeping
promise.
There are twelve Painless Parker dental offices in
the United States, two in Oregon, one in Wash
ington, eight in California, and one in Brooklyn,
N. Y. Any individual who has had dental work
done in any one of these offices is entitled to follow-up
work on the operation, free of charge, in
any of the twelve offices he may care to visit. In
other words, if any hidden fault in our dentistry
comes to light, every one of our offices are eager
to remedy the defect without cost to the patient.
On top of that, we urge our patients to call at least
once every six months and have the dental work
given a thorough examination so that the job
may be always kept up in first class shape.
Think what this means to you ! Your tooth work
furnished you at the lowest possible figure, esti
mated on the basis of A-No. 1 dentistry. Your
work done by specialists, all of whom " are, or
course, regularly licensed. And, after that, your
teeth watched regularly examination and consul
tation free, and no charge made for putting old
work in good condition.
What value is there in the guarantee of an individual
dentist, who promises you, say a blanket ten-year
pledge that his tooth-carpentry will be protect
ed? He may move away, or quit his trade, or die.
And then where are you? They make a big hul
abaloo about my conducting a dental organization
of nation-wide scope, with scores of dentists aid
ing me in the different cities where I have offices.
But it helps a lot when you move from your town
to another to discover the Painless Parker office
in the new place ready to see that your chewers
are all in good working condition. Think it over!
