Gilbert spoke on ga farmers impress
sion of the Road Bond Election. He
said among other things that the
arguments made by each side created

J. B. Hartweu deputy city health Of
ficer spoke of the eity's health and
said the death rate was low and the
general health good. Fred Bynon read

natured shot or two at the defeated

Seymour Jones spoke at length on
Cooperation and his remarks were at
times vigorously appreciated
The quartet gave a song dedicated to
Hal Patton anu Mr.. DoOley, entitled
"Just Smile,n that brought forth much
laughter, and this was followed by a
talk by Mr.. S. Nj Endicott on the sub
iect of manufacturing. The idea
running through his argument was that
here in Oregon we had too much SEN
timent in business, and that labOrers
should be allowed to work as many
hours as they pleased and for such
wages as suited them. He thought this
was necessary before Oregon could be-
come great manufacturing state.
There was more music and then the
guest of honor Of the occasion, DR..
Withycombe, was greeted with a long
continued round of applause as he rose
at his place next the toastmaster. He
said he agreed perfectly with Mr..
Endicott that we are drifting too far
in restricting capital. He congratulated
the club on the great work it was doing,
and expressed regret that the road
bonds had failed. He said we had
wasted thousands and millions of dol
lars in our road building and that we
must adopt some system by which all
road work should be permanent, He
called attention to Denmark which has
but 100000 acres of land cold and
inhospitable cumate where the COWS
have to be blanketed while grazing in
the pastutes, and which exported an
immense amount of butter.
Salem was the center of vast agri-
cultural section of 100000 acres of
the richest land on earth, tnat should
yield easily $jO,OOO,OOO yearly. He
talked but ten minutes but spoke rapid
/ ly and said much in that time. At a
quarter after the affair was over and
one of the plcasentest meetings of the
club had passed into civic history.
