', 0 It has been suggested that it is about time that Salem puts on a big patriotic parade. The parade in Portland yester day was a great showing of patriotism with all the stores closed during the afternoon. Albany, Eugene and other cities of the valley have had patriotic demonstrations but as yet the capital city has done nothing. o In response to the patriotic reply giv en by the Bend Water, Light & Power company to the requeest of Governor Withyeombe for reduction of rates ior school children who wish to cultivate gardens and so help in meeting the food situation, Governor ' Withyeombe has written to T. H. Foley, manager of the company, a warm letter of appreciation. o When a young man wants to join the aviation corps, he is assured of $18 a month and all found and a rapid ad vance in the ranks if he happens to be made of tho right material for high fly ing.

The prospective aviat ors are Hubert A. Crane, 20, of Auuis ville; Clair G. Brock, of Aumsville, and Paul N. Kirsch, 20, of Stayton. rag rl -1 OPTOMETRY P MEANS EYE SERVICE ti m WEAR GLASSES ta ii ti ti WHEN NEEDED u ti m ii ti n H II ti Si 11 n ii for they prevent headaches, wrinkles, squinting and frowning.

The stories to be told are "The Bell of Atri," "Master ot All Masters" and "Little Gray Pony." Miss Iaxson will tell the stories and the hours are as usuul, from 9:80 and again from 10:30. o Patrick Cardiff, aged 53 years, in for mer years a famous prizefighter, died at the Oregon State hospital this after noon. He was committed to the hospital from Portland on March 23 of this year. He had been committed once nefore but recovered sufficiently to be released. He is well known in sport circles and in bis palmy days met some of the best pugilists of the ring, among them John L. Sullivan. Three prisoners were received at the state penitentiary yesterday and, one this morning. Those received yesterday were Blane Dagger, of Umatilla county, convicted of soliciting a child under age and given from one to 20 years sen tence; John Elmore and John Lunde, both of Umatilla, convicted of larceny and given from one to 10 years. B. H. Seward, of Burns, convicted of larceny and given a sentence of from one to 10 years was received this morning. o Notwithstanding the rainy weather, the river has been falling for the past few days until today the stage was 0.2 feet above the aero mark. Yesterday the rainfall was officially recorded as .55 of an inch. The range of temperature wag from 52 to 40 and the river was at tho lowest stage of the month. While it has been raining o'ff and on for the past month, there hasn't much rain fallen. Willamette chapter of the American National Rod Cross will soon be estab lished at 4!ll Court street. These quar ters are given free by the Salem lodge of Elks. The quarters in the Ma-sonic Temple were but temporary.

Leslie Dugan, the boy from the Ore gon School for the Deaf, is one of the surprises of the chess tournament, at the Commercial club. At the second of the series- of games held last Friday night, he gave some of the old time champions a hard run. Ho will play again thi9 eveniifg. This tournament is to determine just who is who when it comes to playing chess. The public is invited to come to the Commercial club this evening. The game3 begin about 8 o 'clock. The suit of Gertrude Brown against W. K. Stanton for the recovery of $125 alleged to have been paid Stanton for instruction in the beauty parlor busi ness occupied Judge Kelly's court this morning. The plaintiff alleges a con tract whereby she was to have paid $250 for learning tho profession of beauty making but finding that affairs did not go to suit her she wishes to recover the $125 she paid down. The beauty par lors were in the Bank of Commerce building. o The Cherrian Military band went to Portland yesterday to take p:rt in the patriotic parade and according to one of the players, they surely had a fine time. They were in line at 2 o'clock in a" steady rain, forming with the Southern Pacific employes. After a wait of half an hour they were ordered to re port at a certain street but managed to walk about 10 blocks out of the -way. After another long wait they finally got in line and marched until 0 o'clock in the pouring rain. ! O Just to secure definite, information in regard to the parcel post business, the government required all postmasters to keep a. count of every package that went through their postoffices from April 2 until April 10. In Salem the city carriers handled more packages than all the rural carriers during the two weeks. The city record is 3,(i00 and the rural carriers 2,003. Through the boxes 520 packages were delivered and by special delivery 41. During the two weeks, the total number of packages handled, coming and going, was lS,40o. Of this number 210 were insured. The young man who joins the navy has u pretty fair chance of climbing up the ladder of service if he has the right material in him. Each year 100 seamen are appointed as midshipmen at Annap olis and given the same training as those appointed by representatives or senators through competitive examina tions. Today the following young men enlisted' and were, sent to Portland: Eavmond E- Euggles, 2;!, of Salem, and Merrill P. Hart, 18, of Wendale. 'They enlisted as apprentice seamen and will be paid $IS a month and all found. o-j General Farrar, of the Y. M. C. A. business men's class bi'ff ball series, was unable to make any important gains on General Gingrich's iirrav of biff toss- ers Wednesday night. Gingrich won the volley ball game aud Farrar annexed the biff ball game also taking the 1-2 point for the larger attendance. Ging rich is praying for rain so that the, Far rar army will be unable to pursue. It seems that most of the Gingrich team arc gardeners and for the present have retreated to the lonely spots back of their residences. It is expected that bad weather will mable General Gingrich to make a more stubborn resistance. o Just now there is a great cry in re gard to the scarcity of labor, especially tor the farm. C. O. Constable, county fruit inspector was in need of a man to handle one of his prune farms. For the past three weeks he had been asking his friends to find help for him, but Could hear only the same old story of how hard it was to find good men. Then just as a last resort, Tuesday of this week he placed an ad in tho Capital Journal: "Watcd Man for orchard PAPE'S DM FOR INDIGESTION OR BAD STOMACH Relieves Sourness, Gas, , Heartburn, Dyspepsia Ia Rye Minutes Sour, gassy, upset stomach, indiges tion, heartburn, dyspepsia; when the food you eat fermenta into gases and upsets you ) your head aches and you fee! sick and miserable, that's when you realize the wonderful acid neutral izing power in Papc's Diapepsin. It makes all such stomach misery due to acidity, vanish in five minutes. if vour stomach is in a continuous revolt if you ean't r;et it regulated, please, lor your sake, try Pnpe'a i'ia pepsin.

(let a large fifty cent case of Papc's Diapepsin from any drug store. It is the quickest, surest antacid and stom ach relief known. It acts almost like magic it is a scientific, harmless and pleasant stomach preparation which truly belongs in every home. work." Within 20 minutes after the paper was issued he had received three applications and within two days had 17 applicants from responsible men. He now has on his farm a young man who has had experience in orchard work and it cost him but a few cents for tho ad that brought the young man to his of fice. Moral: Don't tell your troubles to your friends. Use the Capital Jour nal. o The weather prophet of today says there will be a new moon tomorrow and that after today's rain, there will be all sorts of clear weather and no more rain for a long time. So mote it be. Governor Withyeombe while attend ing tho good roads meeting at North Bend Thursday bought "Peg OWeil" the famous saddle mare used by the lete -T. D.
