is the duty of every business man,

The CONJUGAL
YOKE CALLED
HER SHOULDERS

After an even quarter of a century
of married life Mrs. Julianna Behn
says she has become tired of being a
slave, and of having cruel and inhu-
man treatment heaped upon her by
her husband, and, with a view of
bringing 1t to an end, through her
attorney, Carey f. Martin, has com
menced suit for divorce against
Albert Behn.
She says, in her complaint, that
they were married in the city of Lon
don in 1886, and that no children
have resulted from the union. Until
October, 1910, they continued to live
as husband and wife, she says, but
then sold their farm in Yamhill coun-
ty and, after dividing the proceeds,
lived separate and apart,
During all of her married life, she
alleges, her husband has been Inn
properly jealous of her, and her life
has been made that of slave, Besides
doing the house work, according TO
her story, she cut the wood, tended
the cattle and the goats and worked
in the fields and now she has be-
como tired of 1t all and wants the
bonds of matrimony existing between
them forever dissolved.

The Wolf.

A wolf came to my door last night
And shook It with his teeth so white;
My little ones In sore alright
Clung to my trembling arm,
He was so savage, gaunt and gray,
There was no driving him away;
could not weep could but pray
God keep my babes from harmm
] threw to him my treasured things,
My costly jewels, gllttering rings,
Each precious ornament took wings
And fell into his Jaws
Yet stlll he was not satisfied.
But gaunt and lean and hungry-eyed.
The fragile barrier he tried
To shatter into straws.
Twas human flesh and blood that
drew
Him to my door, The whole night
through
He ragged and howled, but well knew
His fury was In vain
God sent his angels, strong and
bright,
Who stayed with us the livelong
night,
Nor left us till the morning light
Had brought us Joy again.

twenty thousand shares will be sold

by the board Of directors, who reserve
the right to sell the remainder at any
price above $1.25 per share that they
may deem proper without notice of

Street Committee.

The street committee is busy con-
slderlng petitions for street improve
ments, and because 1t has been busy
considering them, and no results
have been attained, much caustic
criticism has been applied to 1t. Sew
eral weeks ago there was mapped
out street Improvement which
would cover about 10000 square
yards Since that time the amount
is doubled, and not day passes but
that property owners on some other
street signify their intention OF MAX
ing improvements. The criticism has
been made against the committee,
because, while 1t has had this sub
iect under consideration couple of
months, not a contract has been
awarded, and 1t is feared that, unless
work is started soon that the i'm
proyement season will have gone by,
and without any improvements being
made' Ihat would mean no improve
ments until next year; mean that the
city would remain in state of stag
nation for that long a time.
This committee is composed of
Messrs, LafSY Durbin and Waring.
All of them are men of progressive
ideas; We're elected on ticket that
had for its slogan Improvement and
progress" and that is their slogan
today They have all been laborlng
hard, and are not deserving of the
criticism heaped upon them, and It is
believed that they will demonstrate
this ractt the public by showing re-
suits in the near future. Anyway,
their friends and those ln'toueh with
their work believe they Will.

That ought TO come ais a message
OF good cheer to the progressive ele-
ment-to the men who are striving
for Greater Salem" Because of
the delay in the making of needed
improvements-and especially street
improvements, much criticism has
been hurled at the mayor and the
street committee. Such has been the
case because the people, as a whole,
are clamoring for street Improve
ments-want them, and have petit
TONED and beseeched for them, but,
so far, in vain. 1t now develops that
the mayor has been as anxious for
these improvements as any one, and
that because he has been unable to
get action he has been both discour-
aged and impatient. He believes,
however, that now action can be Sc
cured, and will use all efforts along
that line, and those who know Lach-
mund as a member Of the council re-
member hm as man who obtained
results, and believe that he will do
the same as mayor-that he will, as

ord made as councilman.
