Discus throwing was 4 refined form
OF hurting the stone! In Homeric
times, and even At olympia. a stone or
mass Of iron was frst used for the
purpose. This was held by leathern
thong, swung in a circle and, hurled ~

as'eafly as the beginning or the fiftt'
century;
A standard weight must, OF course,

A BENEFIT
TO RELIEVE
DISTRESS

A case of extreme want in the
northern part Of the city has come to
the attention of the Women Of Wood
craft and with a view to alleviatng
the straitened conditions of this fam
fly, which consists of a widow and six
small children, the idea was conceived
Of giving a benefit show at the Wex-
ford theatre, which will be held on
the afternoon and evening of October
a. 1t is quite likely that the crowd
seeking admittance will be much larg-
er than can be accommodated at the
Wexford and If this should prove to be
the case the overflow will be taken
care of at Ye Liberty. A fine pro-
gram is being arranged for the Occa-
sion, which will undoubtedly fill the
house many times over. Salem people
have never failed to do their share
toward contributing to the worthy
needy, and in this case 1t looks as If
the usual spirit will be shown. Tick
cts will be on sale at the principal
business houses of the city and it is
that a house to house can
yass will be made by the ladies of the
lodge, starting within day or two.
With so worthy a cause as this it is
that a large amount of money
can be raised in a short time and the
of this popular theatre
and the Women of Woodcraft are to
be commended for the generous spirit
shown in doing this piece of mission
ary work where its benefits will be
received by some Of our own citizens,

Journalism as a Study.
From Seattle Post-Intelligencer

CFrom Seattle Post-lntelligencer,
September 16, 1922
No field of activity in these modern
times offers broader opportunities
for useful and helpful service than
the field Of journalism offers. Jour
nallsm is a big fact in modern life;
sometimes it seems that we do not
fully appreciate the power welded
by the press Of the country; it is a
power not always wisely used it is
not always used for the good It can
do; but in the main the newspapers
of America are clean in most respects
and do more good than harm and If
that could be said of the average citl-
zen it probably would satisfy the re-
quirements of our imperfect clviliza-
tion.
The establishment of a department
Of journalism in the University OF
Oregon following a similar and rea-
sonably successful experiment in
the University of Washington and the
assignment Of Mr.. Eric w. Allen, who,
for number Of years, has been CON
nected with this newspaper, to the
new chair in the Oregon university,
shows that the reople in this section
of the country fully appreciate the
power Of the press. and that they are
anxious to realize the maximum of
its power for good in modern society
Mr.. Allen is a young man of fine
capacity; he has had practical expe-
rience in newspaper making; his
ideals are clean; he is keen to the
