Meditation for the New Year By President Carl Gregg Doney Won't do to cuss the railroads any more because vour old TJuclo Samuel stato-j won't stand for a cussin'. Merchandise IS PASSING THROUGH A TRANSITION PERIOD owing to present conditions. GOVERNMENT NEEDS ARE ENORMOUS Even for the first equipment of the Army and Navy and the First Supply is only the beginning. All sup plies must be replaced repeatedly owing to the seyere usage. ' . -1 As the Army grows, more and more factories will be devoted to military work with the result that less, goods vill be made for civilian use. THERE IS A REAL SHORTAGE OF RAW MATERIALS, and mills are experimenting with all kinds of substitutes. Some may prove satisfactory; many will not. Many merchants are sacrificing quality to keep near old prices, but we have always considered quality first during our 26 years in Salem, for we believe that the future of the store depends upon satisfactory merchandise and we shall continue to handle standard brands with a reputa tion to maintain. In consequence of shortened production, prices which are already high will continue to advance. OUR HEAVY STOCK in all departments bought months ago, will enable us to keep our retail prices below the market value for a good part of the year 1918. Tho coming year will see more sig nificant events than any since the t-uristian era began. We dare not even predict when the war will close, but whether it ends soon or late there are momentous experiences eertaiu to come to everyone of us. We have telt the Do giniiings of somo of them; we know that their forco will increase and that O'.'.ers will necessarily arise. Economic changes have commenced to revolutionize the customary man agement cf our household ana busines ses. We do not doubt that they will continuo aud that they will demand painful deprivations and, searching re adjustments. Loved aud familiar faces are gone from countless homes and only their spiritualized presence re mains. Their presence is spiritualized tyid the reaction upon us is both chas tening aud beautiful. Tho high vision which seized their souls and made them gladly willing to offer their total all is working its way into the souls of the least of us, filling us with a kind of awo and an unheard of devotion. The year upon which we arc now en tering will find us making a sober ap praisal of our country. We will want to know if it is worth the price which is being paid for it. Some will be de manded, but beneath tho surface we will see a thine to wonder at and be proud of. Patriotism will have a re birth and a reinterpretation. Tho mat ter of fact loyalty of other days will givo place to a keen, intelligent and hfo compelling appreciation of Amer ica. We will know that a country lor which our sons die is not commonplace or ignoble, that it has an unfolding spirit which is saernmeiitaily beauti ful and that this nntional spirit must sublimate all individual spirits and be come the controlling spirit of the world. The year will be great with an in crease of the sense of "justice. Eight has been outraged in a manner which appals and terrifiesjthe elemental in stincts. of 'mercy have been shameless ly "Jo'lated; solemn covenants - have been brazenly " derided ; the slowly gathered increments of civilization have been mocMd and set aside. We have - seen Germany do these things and the sight has filled us with grief and shame.. And more. It has filled us with a hatred o such things. Germany has shown us how hideous injustice and cruelty and, deceit and demonism really are. Germany has made them so loathesome that the world recoils irom them. The picture is so black that ev ery thoughtful person is asking wheth er there is any of this diabolism in him. Every decent person wants to. de stroy it, wants to put it out of war fare, out of tb.e,warld, out of himself. The now year will witness a profound increase of plain righteousnes. Tho vear will be one of prayer. A million sons in army camps will senTl two million parents daily to their knees. Toj have a on at the battle front can never become a commonplace ex perience. It will always pull like flood tide at the heart; and for such times God alone is sufficient. And French soil will be transformed into shrines bv forms which once were animate with the spirit of liberty and democra cy. American blood will splash the French lilies and we shall think of Him who stained the world with white redemption when He, too, died for the enrichment of mankind. We shall enter the year with fear and hope and courage- Unless we real ize tho presence of God fear will over shadow hope aud courage will give wny to despair. " Every dollar you spend for merchandise at pres ent prices will be a profitable investment for you. sit ? XdM- MP- i Le COY KAKL LEROY JENKS Mr- Jenks tho a very young man, as measured by his achievements in art photography has had an extensive art training both in drawing and pho- tr-grophy.

Alt bo Mr. Jena Has imvn t ed in Salem only a little over a year ho has found an extremely flattering and appreciative respouce to the hi"h grade of photography.

Just gave on the little things you wont miss and the firf thing you know you have something worth while.
