He was a blind piper.
Playing along Broadway.
In the lingering sun
OF a golden October day.
A small boy led him.
A cup outheld for pennies.
From the hurrying throngs.
For the old man.
There was no light Of day.
The windows Of his soul
But the notes.
From his pipe.
Limpid sweet
Like the lilt-
From the flute throat
OF a woodthrush.
In a June forest.
Made the day brighter.
1t brought heeting.
Vision OF beauty.
1t brought the warm triIl.
OF an inward song.
To many a heart.
That had been made.
Colo and mute.
By the realities of life.
Men and women.
Elbowing their way.
Through the press.
Paused to listen.
Here and there a smile
TIlumined a face.
That had been graves.
The world knows this.
Blind old piper.
AS a beggar.
But he is not a beggar.
He is the last.
OF the troubadours.
He amply repays.
Bustling Broadway.
For its scant pennies
Dropped in his cup.
BY the vision.
He called up.
OF a happier.
sweeter.
And gentler world.
From which too many OF us.
Have bsnished ourselves
We need more pipers.
To tap the weU-springs.
or memories.
OF bloodless days.
And peaceful night.
And a world not mad

my DEAR BOB"
From the Manufacturers Record

| of contributors. as furnished by the
chief promoter to Mr.. Robert Grain,
was given in a letter addressed TO
My Dear Bob"
Though Mr.. Grain is a Baltimor-
can, he has an office in Washington,
and we naturally suppose for the
purpose of being in closer touch
with Congress. When the Demo
cratic national convention was held
in Baltimore 1t was generally re-
ported that Mr. Grain was RESPONSE
/ BILE for Baltimore's securing the con-
vention. and many felt then that Mr..
, Grains liquor associations had too
much to do with the selection OF
! that city.
When the war savings stamp
committee for Maryland was origi-
mated Mr.. Grain was made chairman.
and at that time the editor of The
/ Manufacturers Record" wrote to
/ Secretary McAdoo protesting against
/ the appointment OF Mr.. Grain as
chairman. on the ground that il was
a deliberate slap in the face OF all
the decent interests in the State OIL
Maryland opposed to the liquor
! traffic.
+ The scandal which has now de-
veloped is likely to have a far
reaching effect. for it proves eN-
actly. as Mr.. Palmer stated. that the

People Of Argentina
Friendly to United States

Washington, July l1.-Assuranees OF
the war regard of the people of Argen-
tina for the United States and of their
sympathy for her ideals were voiced
to the United Press yesterday by Dr.
Romulo S. Naon. Argentine ambassa-
dor and high financial commissioner
here.
Dr. Naon asserted that he had been
highly pleased with conditions as he
had found them in Argentine during
his recent visit there and that he was
equally pleased with the kindly spirit
with which his return to Washington
was greeted, He stated that it was his
desire to work for the improvement OF
the already cordial relations between
the two republics.
The ambassador called ON Secretary
Lansing and presented his credentials
as high financial commissioner. Rec
ognition of the rank gives the United
States four commissioners from for
eign countries. Or. Nlaon's position as
high commissioner from a country not
in the war is unique.
DR.. Naon s chief task as high finan-
eial commissioner is not to float @ loan
for Argentina in this country, as has
been reported from various sources, but
rather to cooperate with the United
States in working out problems Of
trade and monetary exchange between
the Awo countries.

HURRIES AMERICAN PLANS
BY Robert J. Bender

Washington, July II. - A sudder
awakening eff Russians--thus far $50
Ilated--to the dangers Of German in
vasion, is adding zest to the American
allied plans for aid to Rnssia.
It is admitted that much Of the sue
cess of the economic miss1t n plus a
police propaganda force of soldiers
depends upon how the Russians rally
to its standard. Successes of the
Czech Slovaks in Siberia and the well
come tendefed them by the populace
there, the revolt of Ukraine against
German oppression, reported today
and the cooperation OF Russians ON the
Murman coast with the allies are re-
garded as most encouraging by Off
cials here.
Should the Czecho-Slovaks forces
meet with defeat, however, the whole
problem would be seriously affected.
For upon that force the allies are
counting for emergency aid. y
These changing events with their
possibilities merely emphasize the oit-
fieulties confronting the allies in car
rying out definite course of action.
In his recent conferences with Lord
Reading. Viscount Ishii and other al
lied statesmen, the president discussed
the general program.
The president, it is said, is hoiiing
up discussion of the military feature
until decision has been reached with
American military experts. After this
country has determined the part ii will
take, that phase Of the question will
be laid before the allies.

SCENE IN PAN-sovIET CONGRESS
By JOSEPH Shaplen

UNITED Press staff correspondent
| Stockholm, July 1l.-Stirring scenes
were enacted during the pan-soviet con
gress at Moscow, according to Petro-
grad newspapers which have just been
received here. With German Ambassa-
dor Mubach occupying one box and
with representatives of the entente al
lies in another section, a delegate from
the Ukraine, NJ. Alexandroff, precipi-
tated a lively scene by denouneing
German imperialism and its influence
in the Ukraine.
81 greet the pan-soviets in the name
of the secret peasant congress in the
Ukraine where reigns Geman dicta-
torship and where the bolsheviki con-
tinue negotiations with the marionette
Skoropadsky, simultaneously tOlerat-
ing the presence of German imperial
ism in the person of Count Mirbach. 7"
Two hundred and fifty members of
the Left cheered his statements wildly
while Mirbaeh and his suite sat stiff
ly erect.
''The Germans are employing impris-
onments. and executions without trials
to suppress a revolt of workmen and
peasants but we know how to fight
even if you don ~ the speaker con-
tinued.
"The Germans have come to the
Ukraine to obtain bread, but they
won u get it. Wherever the Germans
have loaded trains, we have blown
them up and have treated likewise all
artillery and magazines in the Ukraine.
"The Germans sought to transfer
huge aviation machinery from Odessa
and Nikolaieff to the Krupp works,
but we blew it up.
"The Germans will be wiped out in
the Ukraine. They already have paid
thousands of lives fer their tyranny.
"You have concluded the Brest-Li-
tovsk peace at the price of the Ukraines
liberty. We now call upon you to aid
us.D
Members of the Left and of the
Right rose crying down with the
Brest- Litovsk treaty.
Mirbach excitedly whispered to
German officer. Members Of the Left
again began shouting: Down with
Mirbach; down with the lackeys OF
Mirbaeh-the bolsheviki.'
Leon Trotsky then told the delegates
that the government was opposed. to
the offensive of the red guard

GRANDMOTHER WAS THE

grandmother was the druggist, and
her drugs consisted mostly of roots
and herbs gathered from the fields and
forests. There was peppermint for in

for nervousness, thoroughwart for
colds, wormwood for bruises and
sprains and so on. They were success

Tent Meeting Interest
Increasing Nightly

Last night the Hayward Dickson
meetings were the center of attraction
in the city as Evangelist Dickson spoke
on the subject of Heaven, He'll, Purga-
tory-Where are the Dead2" He said
that the whole plan Of redemption thru
Jesus Christ disproves me man made
theory of the immortality of the soul.
Jesus came to give men something that
he did not have. lie came to give him
life, and His coming was not in vain.
81 would great deal rather have my
mother resting peacefully in the grave
if were going the broad way that leads
to destruction" said the speaker, than
to know that she was up in heaven
looking down upon my waywardness
and sin, impotent, to help and to speak
to me, her Beloved son. Why that would
be hell in heavenl" Mr.. Dickson as.
soiled in a vigorous way many of the
popular teachings upon the grave and
hell showing from the scriptures that
they are opposed to many, many of the
ideas held before the world at the pre-
sent time regarding the future life.
The large interest which is being man
ifested in these meetings testify to the
appreciation Of the people Of Salem for
the clear gospel of the Bible. Evan.
gehsts. Hayward and Dickson show
themselves TO be deep students of the
scriptures.
One special feature Of interest IN the
meetings from night to night is the
opening of the questions which are
handed in with the offering before
each address. These questions are writ
ten out by those who are troubled over
some point or points of doctrine and
the speaker of the evening opens them
and answers them before the regular
study CT the evening is opened up. In
this way the doubts in many plinds
are taken away and they are ready for
continued study.
The stirring song services which are
held each evening before the regular
service ia creating great and new in
terest in the singing Of the gospel. II is
hard to sit in these meetings and not I,
open ones meuth in praise. The songs, !
most of them new, are set to tunes
which one can easily whistle while ati
work, and are naturally catchy.
Tonight Evangelist Hayward will give !
his great lecture on tte "Coming World |

to seat a largo crowd Of people. The
prophecies of the Bible are clearly ex-
claimed on these great themes and the

Are You One of Them?

There are a great many people who
would be very much benefited by TAX
ing Chamberlain 5 Tablets for weak
or disordered stomach. Are you one OF
them9 Mrs. M. r. Searl, Baldwinsville,
N. Y, relates her experience in the use
of these tablets: 81 had bad spell
with my stomach about six months ago,
and was troubled for two or three
weeks with gas and severe pains in the
pit of my stomach. Our druggist advis-
ed me to- take Chamberlain s Tablets.

dose relieved me wonderfully, and |

pain, but after the pain has been re-
iieved may prevent its recurrence.

Soldiers Bridge Toll
Fixed at One Cent

Portland, Or, July 11.-With the at
torney general of Washington state
maintaining his calm silence on the lc-
gality of allowing soldiers free passage
across the interstate bridge at Van
couver, move was begun here to pass
the soldiers over for a nominal one
cent charge.
The county commissioners adopted
such a resolution and put the matter
up to Clark county, Washington.
Since the move to obtain free pass
age for the soldiers was started by
Colonel Disque, commander of the spruce
division, it is unexplained why the at
torney general Of Washington should
delay giving his opinion. Colonel Disqne
explained that such step would ma
teriolly aid the smooth operation Of his
division headquarters in onjuncti0n
with activities in Vancouver.
