HOW CAN 1T HAPPEN?

In the new book by the editor of the
Toronto Globe, Jas Macdonald, which
was reviewed Sunday evening in the
First Presbyterian church, the author
quotes the above question asked by
an honored American consul. He then
answers thus: How could there be
such a God and this thing not happen?
If there is a moral order in the universe
if there is an essential difference be-
tween right and wrong, if nations as
well as men have consciousness of
moral distinctions among their respect
i've actions, if national retributiOn, slow
footed but sure, follows in the track of
national crime, and if nations in the
great family of mankind are bound to-
gether so that if one member sins all
the members suffer with it-that is to
say, if there is God of nations whose
decrees are immutable and whose warn
ings are not Knocked, then harvest of
bitterness and slaughter must be reaped
from forty years sowing of interna-
tional hatred and preparation for war. "
The open forum discussion was par
ticipated in by Messrs, Paul Wallace
and Frank Miller.

MY IDEAL GIRL

An ideal girl is hard to find.
There's few in this wide world;
But when a fellow falls in love,
It's always the Ideal Girl.
II.
The one which I have now in mind,
is the Ideal Girl for me,
Perhaps to some she II not appeal,
Our tastes are unlike you see.
III.
Her eyes are blue and filled with tho Y,
Her hair is light and brown:
Her teeth are white, her lips are red,
Her skin as soft as dawn.
".
She always feeds we hungry boys,
On pies and cakes and fruit
Her motto is, to please the man,
"Just feed and stuff the brute"
V.
Around her home she is alert.
To keep things clean and bright,
And when she cooks a meal with pies
1t always tastes lust right.
,g,- VI.
She has q smile for everyone.
Who happens to come her way,
A companion to boys and girls alike,
A friend to all each day.
VII.
Her morals are high, her tbo'ts are
pure,
For she is a girl of prayer,
And everyone she does inspire,
She influences unaware.
VIII.
Her faith and works are in her God,
In church she does her part;
Her talent everyone admires,
For music is her art.
TX.
She never dances or play the cards,
Which lead one from the church,
And modesty she ne Ter forgets,
From truth she never shirks.
X.
There is so much I'd like to say
About this Ideal Girl,
That l believe that l could keep
On writing forever more.
XI.
But I viii close with just one word,
A prayer for my Ideal Girl,
May God in heaven keep her pure,
From the stains Of the outside world

Salem's Public Library
Grows Steadily In Favor

The Salem public library contains
about two-thirds of a book to every
person living in the city, estimating
the population, at 1900, according to
the report for the year 1915 recently
issued by the librarian, Miss Anne D.
Swezey.
Several interesting facts regarding
the library are shown by this annual
report. One is the greater interest be-
ing taken as shown by the average
daily attendance. In 1913 it was IS, in
1914 this average had grown to 81 and
last year it was 113.
Although the circulation of the libr-
ary for 1915 was 53,S52, yet from this
total number only 159 books were miss
ing and this was due possibly to the
fact that few books were taken out
without being registered at the desk.
Each year the circulation grows,
Last year was 5615 larger than the year
before and 1899 larger than the ban
ner year of the library, 1913.
A book hospital is part of the reg.
ular equipment. Books are not only
rebound, but they are vanished, mend
ed and brought into proper condition tC
be placed on the shelves In fact, the
hospital department of the library
cared for the re-bnding of 226 books
and the mending of 1900.
School children are becoming active
patrons Of the library. Last year the
circulation from the city schools wa;
29,759, showing an increase of 367C
over the preceding year.
Philosophical readers, or rather those
interested in philosophy are rather
scarce in the city and vicinity. Al
though 1872 adult books were issued il
January, 1915, only 4S were interested
in philosophy. Readers of the usefu
arts are also scarce as only SO books
on these subjects were issued last
December, which was about the month
ly average for the year.
Books on religious topics were mo-
in demand to any very great extent
The greatest call for these books wa'
in February 1915, when 40 We're cir
culated. The desire for religious read
ing was lowest last July, when /;
books were called for.
Readers of fiction find January the
best month to read. In January Of
1915 exactly 1852 books of fiction were
circulated with February as the mex
highest month for this style of liter
ature. Fiction falls the lowest il
September In fact, in September
business is at its lowest ebb in the pub
lie library. While the adult public
called for 1872 books in January Of

CoMBING YoN'T RID
HAIR OF DANDRUFF
4 x x 4 x * x x 4 = * = =

The only sureway to get rid of dand-
ruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid aryon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
to moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace Of it, no matter how much dand-
ruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus-
trous, glossy silky and soft, and look
and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid aryon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive and never fails
to do the work.
