The current issue of Popular Mechan
ics has a short, interesting writeup of
Salem by the traveling editor of the
magazine. The article covers several
pages and has 12 views of Salem streets
and public buildings. The writer refers
to saiem as tnn spotless town" ana
declares it onq of the prettiest state
capitals he has ever set foot in. The
writer's views and his remarks are high
ly complimentary to the citizens of the
city, showing how our wide, clean
streets, well kept narks and buildings,
etc., appeal to an outsider. The only
fault at all to be found with the ar
ticle, and that not a serious one, is that
the writer attempts briefly to enumerate
our resources and to give a few statis
tics from too superficial an observation.

The closed and the open shop came
in for discussion pro and con at the
meeting of the Six O'clock club last
evening. A. W. Laurence, who spoke
for the closed shop; stated that organ
ized labor meant better workmen, bet
ter living conditions for the workmen,
and a better community. T. B. Kay who
represented the government's point of
view, stated that the constitution
granted all men free and equal oppor
tunity and that it would not be legal
or constitutional for the government to
recognize the closed shop because in so
doing it would confer upon some classes
certain privileges and conditions which
it did not confer upon others. He de
plored the extremes to which both or
ganized labor and 1 employers of times
went. Prof. J. O. Hall, representing the
view point of the economist, stated that
the closed shop had a tendency to lend
to labor monopoly which was bad, but
that all leading economists recognized
that labor had a right to organize for
collective bargaining with employers.
Ho said that neither, labor nor the em
ployer should have exclusive power and
that in his opinion conditions in this
respect in the Fnited States were about
balanced as they should be.
METAL WORKERS RETTJEN
SOLDIERS JOYFUL
Welcome Sight of American
Shores and Josh Amer
ican Soldiers
An Atlantic Port, Dec. 19. There
was no mourning when the first great j
shipload of wounded that America has 1
seen, put into dock today.
There was soinethins like 2000 con-
Ivalescent Canadian soldiers aboard the!
great vessels. All who were able to I
walk scrambled to the sides of the ship j
to get a glimpse of the American har-!
bor, shouted gleefully at American sol-1
diers on duty there, and acted as ifj
they wero just tickled to death to get ;
back home again.
Few of war's horrors were visible
on the first of the ship 's burden to
show themselves on the decks. The in
valids and "non-walking cases" were
all below decks, so the landing partook
more of a jollification than a misery
meeting.
"Are you downhearted, Sammyf"
yelled one Canadian soldier to a trim
and husky looking American, standing
with his "gun on " sentry -go" at the
dock.
"No," the American retorted, grin
ning. -
"Well," the Canadian yelled back,
"this '11 make you homesick."
There were laughs and cheers. Then
the American shouted back across" the
ever lessening width of water between
the dock and the ship:
You'll get no beer here!"
"We're glad we're going back to
Canada," the chorus came. "Cad't
we eve n get two per cent beer?"
"Not a chance," the Sammy solemn
ly assured them.
The Canadian wounded will be trans
ported to Canada as fast as possible
by special trains. No- nurses or physi
cians were necessary to attend to them
at the docks. On board the ship were
a number of Canadian women, some of
them being returned from England, in
accordance with the British govern
ment's dules that families of soldiers
should stay at home. (
Every sort of British uniform was
represented in tho groups that throng
ed the rails Highlanders, artillery
men. aviatoTs, infantrymen and .ev
erything else.
One of those aboard was Captain M.
B. Tavlor. of Macon, Ga., a member of
the Canadian royal flying corps. Ho
was injured in a fall, suffering concus
sion of the spine, and was returning
with his wife and six weeks old baby.
The wife is a resident of Toronto.
MILL FEED TOO HIGH
Portland, Or., Dec. 19. Federal reg
ulation of mill stuffs prices is soon to

tration headquarters announced today,
as, a result of charges of northwest
dairyman that profiteers have raised
the prices to such a point that dairies
face bankruptcy.
Mill stuffs prices are extremely high
and thero is a serious shortage. Prof
iteers are alleged to have taken ad
vantage of the situation and demand
ed even higher market prices.

Recently at
a dinner, giv
en by the
Chamber of
Commerce in
Raleigh, N. C,
the guests
were served
with a myste
r i o u s dish.
They praised
it warmly and
after the meal
they were in
formed that
. the strange
yiand was creamed shark. It had
bten planned by a representative of
the Bureau of Fisheries, who was
present, and one of the purposes of
the dinner was to stimulate interest
in our neglected fishing industries.
The incident is another tangible
proof of the progress we are making
in thrift. Not only are we learning
to conserve our present supply of
food, but we are increasing this sup
ply by the development of new
dishes.
Another example of a new source
of food supply is cactus candy, which
is now being made in Louisiana from
the spineless cactus, grown for cattle
food. This candy makes a pleasini?
confection and requires only a small
amount of suear. It is said that the
development of the cactus candy in
dustry will enable sugar mills in the
South to utilize part of their machin
ery in candy making during the nine
months of the year when they ordi
narily are idle.
There are still other possibilities of
increasing our food supply that have
not yet been developed in this coun
try. For example millions of bush
els of acorns now go to waste.. The
acorn, as long ago was shown in
Europe, makes a very good meal,
which can be mixed with rye or
wheat flour, and, while the bread is
not as palatable as that which we
Americans have been jised to, it is
nevertheless quite nutritious. The
American Indian knew the food
value of the white-oak acorn and
used to make a meal of it
The-common thistle also possesses
great food value and when young and
tender can be cooked as a substitute
for asparagus. Not long ago, a nut
growers' association was formed in
New York for the purpose of stop
ping the vast waste of nut foods.
Nuts are being used more and more
as food, not only in cakes and pastry,
but for breads of various kinds. It
is said that the walnut contains so
much natural oil that a piece of wal
nut bread is equivalent to an ordinary
slice of wheat bread and butter. It
is said that six ounces of shelled pea
nuts possess a food value equivalent
to 2.3 ounces of round steak, 5 ounces
of codfish, one ounce of rice, 42
ounces rye bread, 35.5 ounces spinach,
5.6 ounces apples, 6 ounces bacon.
As the war progrc-"- - will find
more and more wa -thrift
We are citin. . -nu
wheat than was the case a few weeks
azn, and yet who can say that we are
suffering even the slightest incon
venience therefrom?
