Santa Claus brought few toys, but
they were the same Ssort he brought
two Chflstmases ago, for the toy shops
had only the supplies they had left ov-
er from the Christmas Of 1913.
No wonder the little boys and girls

Marion County Jersey
Cattle Club Organized
On Saturday Afternoon

The Marion County Jersey Cattle
club effected n permanent organiza-
tion at a meeting held Saturday at the
commercial club, with the election of
Henry ZOrn, Of Aurora, as president
and Jacob Fox, of Silverton, secre-
tary. A constitution for the club was
read and discussed and will be formal
ly adopted at the next meeting.
The object Of the club is to better
the dairy interests of Marion county
and to encourage the breeding of Jer'
sey cattle, besides the general up-build'
ing of all dairy nerds, The members
of the club feel that the dairy COW is
the greatest benefactor Of the farmer,
and that ne should be encouraged to &c
into the dairy business as much as pos
sible. At the same time, the efforts
Of the Jersey club will be that OF
keeping up the standard of the stock.
Mr.. Zorn, along VITA other members
Of the club, feel that the future pros
perity of this valley will depend much
on tho average farmer with 40 or 80
acres of land and on this land should
be a dairy herd as large ns the farmer
can can profitlbly take care Of.
Later, those interested in the dairy
business expect TO take up the prob
lem of standardiaing the butter pro
duet Of the Willamette valley, so that
in the near future, Willamette butter
will have standing in the butter mar
ket MS Tillamook cheese has among the
buyers in the cheese market. 1t is only
by bringing all dairy interests togeth.
or, suggested Mr.. Zorn, that the dairy
men of this valley can expect to make
dalrying the profitable business it
should be. The business methods of
the Tillamook cheese men in standard
i2inO their product, must eventually be
applied to the butter making inter-
csts Of the Willamette valley, was the
opinion expressed by Mr.. Zorn.

this request, thus avoiding delay in the
proceedings.
Mrs. Mohr, her face pale and her
mouth twitching violently, stepped up
to the bar alongside of the two negro
prisoners, whom she is accused of get
ting to do the actual killing Of her
husband. She was dressed in a simple
suit of blue with black hat but as she
and her alleged partners pleaded not
guilty, her face showed ehalky white in
striking contrast to her black hair and
the black fur at her throat.
Attorney Arthur Cushing demanded
a separate trial for her, urging that she
could not have a fair trial because Of
the negroes defense is opposed to her
case, and she would be deprived Of her
full quota of challenges in event of
joint action. Judge Stearns overruled
this motion, and ordered the sheriff to
proceed with impaneling the jury.
The jury was completed at 1880 this
afternoon, but it was possible some Of
them would be eliminated as no chal-
lenges were used.
After the tentative jury had been
selected, Attorney John Fitzgerald
sprang the first sensation when he
forced Joseph Aldrich to admit that he
had visited several talesmen, including
Hugh Carney, jury number l. He
charged that Aldrich represented in.

Carney was excused from service.

WILL MAKE SUCCESS OF
LETTER WRITING WEEK
Tourist and Publicity Club
Departments Actively
at Work

The tourist, publicity and conven-
tions department of the Commercial
Club, 4. q. Deckabaeh, director, is do
ing its part towards making letter
writing week a success, at least from a
Salem standpoint.
At the meeting held this morning at
the Commercial Club by this depart
ment, general plans were laid out and
the situation generally discussed.
In order that the entire city may
take interest in this Oregon letter
writing week, several committees were
appointed in order that no one will be
overlooked.
To interest the school children, Paul
Wallace was appointed chairman of a
committee that will bring before the
schmool children the letter writing idea
and explain to the pupils just exactly
what the Commercial Club would like
for them to do, in order to. do their
share in boosting Oregon.
The Rev. Robert s. Gill was ap-
pointed chairman Of another committee
which will draft general form Of let
ter or letters that could consistently
be written from this community. This
committee will help those who are will
ing to write many interesting things
about this community, but just have
not the knack of saying them.
In order that the theatres may also
do their share in boosting Oregon let
ter writing week, Judge p. H. darcy
was appointed chairman of committee
to bring this properly before the city
theatres.
For those who are willing to write
q dozen or so letters, yet have not the
time President w. M. Hamilton was
appointed chairman of committee to
arrange for stenographer in some
convenient office who will write reg
ular form letters.
The churches will also be given an
opportunity to urge the citizens to
take part in letter writing week, and
for this committee, Il. G.. Deckabach
was appointed chairman.
The object of letter writing week in
Oregon, January II to %, is to boost
the interests of the state through a
concerted effort of writing to friends
and business acquaintance back east,
The Portland Chamber Of Commerce
is at the head of the movement, but
every town and city in the state will
take an active part in having its citi'
zens write, not one letter, but dozens
of them. The letters are to be descrip
tive of Oregon, its scenery, natural re-
sources and tell why this is the finest
country in which to live

of delegates would be hammered into
effective shape by group action and
constructive thinking throughout the

"An organization was not formed
until three days before the end of the

in policy, inefficiency and inability to
get the idea of mediating peace CON
gress in comprehensive shape before

''The organization, when finally
formed, was abortive. The Scandina-
