He declarod that in tho final analysis the world war was brought about in Germany through a false conception of the Bible, or through Ignoring tho Bible. ; He contended that Sf the christian world had given the look a chance to Interpret Hsolf in stead of reading a distorted Interpreta tion into it, Christian Science, Mormon ism, KusM-lIism and other isms would BO'ver havo existed on tho earth for ten nrtnutes.

A contract has just been "signed by Lloyd T. Reynolds, Mrs. Sallie Rey nolds, A. E. Peterson, D. X. Beechler, P. H. Garland, T. W. Stciger and Frank Comstock with the light company by which work will begin at once extend ing the service to these families. To secure service on this one and one-third miles the seven parties en tered into a contract with the company to pay $1130.00, the actual cost of ex tending the lines. In order that the lines and poles may become the pro perty and in care of tho light company the seven subscribers receive their sor vice. free Df charge for two years. In 'other words each party pays on an average of 161.50 to secure the service and this Is gradually refunded covering a period of two years in the way of no charges for lights. At the expiration of two years they will have monthly bills rendered as to other users of light and electricity. - Tho extension of electricity into the close rural distrTcts makes business for other interests.

Hilly Mns aott of Portland and tioorgie Thomp son of Los Angeles boxed ten rounds to a draw here last night. It was agreed before the match that a draw decision should be given if both scrappers were on their feet at the ond of the bout due to the fact that Thompson failed by 8V4 pounds to make tho lltl pounds weight. But the agrement wasn't necessary for Mnacott held his own desptto tho handi cap. After ten hard rounds of buttling. with Stanley Willis, Peter Mitchie wou decision which the crowd didn't seem to like a bit. Freddie Anderson won after eight rounds of mixing with Kid Kxposito. Sammy Gordon was given a decision over Eddie Britt at the end of five rounds. Every Day At Incorporated While the workers for membership in the Commercial club have discon tinued their noon day luncheons, the business of soliciting for additional members will continue until tho field has ibeen thoroughly covered. Several captains report prospects good for ad ditional memberships especially from those who happen to 'be out of tho city this week. It is thought that the state house, su preme court building and state institu tions will also yield a number of members,- as many employes of the state pow own property in Salem and are in terested in -its welfare. A system of industrial tours has been outlined for the winter. That is, at certain times, all members of the Com mercial club will be asked to visit one of the 'big -institutions of the city and be entertained as guests. The- fact that but few of the Com mercial clnb was informed as to the extent of the Salem Tile and Mercan tile company was shown yesterday when the business men - visited the plant, in North Salem ... COUNTY LIBRARY IS .' A meeting in held, this afternoon at the public library with a regard to the matter of establishing a county library. Thig is a mutter that has ben taken up by ' interested citizens of Silverton where thcro is no public library, and thoy are joined in the movement by citizens of Woodburn, with the co-oper ntion of the Salem library board. Should such a library ba established .V" .""' v ""rT "a oy the law of 1803, which providos that any county having 50,000 people may lovy a tax not to exceed one-fifth of a mill for its support. There are now five countv libraryjn svstems in ortcrntioTi in t.Tia ntAta. nnri P porta from these go to show that it has proved most satisfactory. By this means every incorporated town in the county i .assured of a- library of its own, every patron of which may borrow 25 or more- books for lusonn use and may exchange them a-a often as ho likes, transporta tion to and from the library being free. The North Salem Improvement asso ciation is the name under which resi dents of thiB part of the city will car- r" on their work for not only improv ing living conditions, ibut in securing P'y ground's, 'better streets and better everything. To start the ball rolling, a coinmitteo was appointed last evening consisting of August Hnckcstein, chair man, Ward K. Richardson and J. A. Carpenter.

Opinion is di vided oa what will be the big noise in the world's series batting or pitching. John McGraw is foremost among the authorities who predict the 1919 cham pionship banner will go to the team that gets the best pitching. Others main tain it will be the heavy artillery that will, decide the scries.' There is a third group,' which comes out. rather Baf ely, in predicting that in the present case it will bo a combination of the two de partments that will be the winning fac tor. . ;7 . ; j, Many fang are getting away from the early theory that .Moran has Glea son licked in the pitching department. Recent work of Dicky Kerr and Bill James and the promise shown by Roy Wilkinson, late of the American Asso ciation is making the buges believe the White Sox are not in such a bad way for, pitchers. Followers of the prospec tive American league champions main tain that out of his raft of pitchers Mo ran has only three dependable enough to be criven a chance in the biff fizht i Sallee, Reuther and Eller. And thoy claim Gleson has three just as good in Cicotte, William and Kerr. In hitting ,the fans generally grant the advantage to the American leaguo leaders. Jackson, Collins, "Gandil and Weaver have mauled every hurler in Ban Johnson's circuit and the Bed pitchers don't seem "super" enough to stamp them out. Morr.n has two good swatcrs in Rousch and Groh and the Te cruit sensation, Duncan, hns been forg ing to the front with timely stick work. He may be the big noiso of the series for Moran.

At a meeting held last evening with Superintendent E. It. Tillinghast pre siding, it was decided that a general meeting of all living in the north part of the city should be held on the eve ning of Friday October 3, at which time officers of the organization will be elected and committees from the different jiocalitie of. '(North Salem be appointed. ' The residents of North. Salem feel that from many standpoints, they have a section that is far better drained than others,- that they have a more productive' soil and that in many re spects, their part of the city ie more desirable than other locations. And at the same. timo, they are aware that iNorth Salem has not kept up with the march of modern improvements. To 'bring out a spirit of civic pride and to prepare for paving and parking and other improvements, those inter ested state that meetings will 'be held this winter and that with the proper pride taken in North Salem develop ment, the appearance of this section of the city will change materially for the better with a year's time. 'Charles Ray, the " man 'a man, " comes to the Oregon theater tomorrow in another stirring role that will bring a smile to the faces of his admirers. He is tho,."whole show" in "Bill Henry, " in which he appears as just the sort of human animal the average theater goer admires a gritty, se'f re liant, persistent, bellicose young chap with a streak of chivalry in his nature who fights his way to vjctory against' odds and keeps his modesty in the hour of triumph. "Bill Henry" is a husky young salesman who becomes enmeshed in a love affair with a handsome heir ess, and in the course of whining her he has occasion to play a most remark able game of poker, put up a terrific fight with 'bare fists, along with other dramatic stunts.
