Mr.. BRICK RESIGNS
DIRECTORS POSITION
lntimates Club Is Hampered
in Work by Lack Of
Progressive Ideas

Benjamin Brick, director of the pub
hcity, convention and tourist depart
ment of the Commercial club handed
in his resignation last night at the
monthly meeting of the directors.
Mr.. Brick was elected director of
this department and began taking an
active interest in the work immediate
ly after he assumed charge, June 4.
Probably the most important work un-
dertaken by him was that of directing
the annual Cherry Fair which was
handled successfully and at very
small expense to the Commercial club.
He has also been deeply interested in
the automobile touring road known as
the valley loup', journey of 12S
miles from Portland by way of Nc
Minnville and Salem, returning by way
of Silverton. 1t was proposed to oil the
entire 1913 miles and to enlist all towns
interested.
The following resignation explains
Mr.. Brick IS attitude:
Joseph H. Albert, president of the
Salem Commercial club. and members
of the board of directors: This is to
advise you of my final decision to re-
sign from the membership of your
board as director of the tourist, pub
hcity and convention department. /
regret to be compelled to take this
step, and wish to assure you that when
ever your body shows tendency to-
wards progress without fearing to an
tagonize this, that or the other party,
at the expense of the public good, that
you will always find me at your side
doing my share for the welfare of the
Commercial club and the city of Salem.
"I also request that you also ap-
point some one to handle the member
ship campaign. Wishing you the great
est success, remain yours with great
est respect. Benjamin Brick

MAKES PURSES OPEN
Money Comes In $4,000 a
Day---President's Plans
Is Changed
BY Robert j. Bender,

(United Press staff correspondent
Asbury Park, n. j., Sept. l4.-Presi-
dent Wilson today issued speed-up
orders to his party leaders. In con
ference at the executive offices here
with Postmaster General Burleson,
Secretary McAdoo and Secretary Tu-
multy, the president discussed the gen
eral political situation for the first
time since the Maine election. 1t is
the president S opinion as well as. that
of his advisors that the Maine election
should arouse democrats throughout the
country TO action.
There was distinct air of optimism
about today's conference. Reports
from leaders in Washington and Utah
predicted democratic victories in those
states. kilograms from all parts of the
country said apathy in the ranks and
over-confidence had given way to Wig
orous work.
President Wilson'S appearance at his
office here today marked the formal
opening of the Asbury Park executive
suite. The president IS office is very
simple. There are no rugs on the floor
and the plain chairs about the room
as well as the presidents desk and
swivel chair have been rented.
Before coming to Asbury Park the
president worked in his study at Sha-
dow Lawn for three hours, catching up
on official business which Jagged while
he was in New London. During the
political conference here additional
Speeding trips for the president were
discussed.

"just what the party needed at this
time.''
President Wilson found ample evil

ed work at Shadow Lawn today. This
opinion is shared by campaign leaders,
Chairman Vance Mccormick, Postmas-

surface car in the United States carries a
card advertisement of the n. B. C. These
cards are changed every month When the
old card is removed the new card must be

It is, as you cay, an interesting and
curious matter OF inquiry. According to
the best authorities upon this head sur
names were fastened upon ancestors by
some circumstance of residence or action.
In turning over a book that has a chapter
upon the subject find something that is
better worth the reading than anything I
can offer Of my own:
As the population increased and COM
munication became possible and easier the
supply of single names was not equal to the
demand and people began to get individuals
bearing the same name mixed. II was at
this time that the surname was thought of
and adopted. so that families might be dis
tlnguished one from the other. Trades and

forefathers, who, in these cases, were en-
gagged in the households of the nobility and
