AD N|NISTRAT|ON
ADOPTS WATCHFUL
WAITING ATTITUDE
BY Hugh Baltic

Washington, Dec. 4.-The attitude
Of the administration today with re-
gard to the peace treaty is that of
"watchful waiting.",3,
Believing that great popular de-
mand for ratification will come from
the country within a few weeks, Press
ident Wilson is keeping hands Off
the present situation, waiting for this
urge to materialize, according to num-
erous indications.
The president refrained from di-
rectly mentioning the treaty in his
message to congress, it is believed,
with the idea that further argument
was useless.
| Need to be Evident
The need for it, friends of the ad-
tministration predict, will steadily be-
come more apparent. They are look
ling for events to convince the people
that the treaty is desirable and that
| no other means of brining about Of
ficial peace will do The presidents
/ silence, they assert, does not mean
! that he has given up the fight or that
he is any less interested in ratifica-
ton than when he toured the coun-
try appealing for it, That he is wrap
ped up in the treaty was the express
sion used by some Of his advisers in
describing the situation.
Third Term Cheers
Recommendation Of Wilson for a
third term by the state convention at
Pierre, S. D., was interpreted by the
presidents supporters as endorsement
of the treaty and as an answer to the
arguments Of those who claim the
pact is so dead the democrats viii
not want to eXhume it and make it
an issue in 1920.
) Opponents of the treaty openly
scott at the idea that the nation will
demand ratification. They said that
iii any wave of popular sentiment for
it were forthcoming it would have
been apparent early in October just
after Wilson'S tour. Many congress-
men returning to Washington after
talking to their constituents say there
is practically no interest in the treaty
and that the people are rapidly for
getting it in devoting their attention

A SHAME TO SALEM.

IRON no class of workers much demanded from
school teachers. They in fact the foster parents
of the children Into their hands committed the minds
and bodies of the little in the formative years OF their
lives and upon them depend to large extent the future
of the nation.
Teachers watch over and care for children as though
they their They drill and train them for busi-
ness and for citizenship instruct them in and
morals and do for them things the parents have not time
to do They perform their work willingly conseentiouusy
and unselfishly.
What do we do for teachers in return? We pay
them less than unskled labor-ess than any class of
labor Other workers we'll paid Other classes have
prospered But the guardians of American childhood
paid less than the anors of the buildings they the
public In less than StreetSWeepers in city streets
Principals receive less than section foremen end far
pay the who feeds his hogs more than the grad
uate who instructs his children
Fifty per cent of the Salem public school teachers re-
ceve an average wage of S275 day. Some receive only
$245 per day. Seventye per cent of Salem teachers
ceve only So day. The highest paid teacher gets $545
per day. The principals average S4 per day Compare
these prices with those paid in other occupations in
Salem.
Printers get $6 to $3.50 per day of hours and 20
minutes Sawm workers get from S4 to ST. Marion coun-
y pays labor $4 day. $3.50 to trucknen $6 to
drivers Of tractors and roadrolers BARRIERS get $22
week plus percentage Canneries pay 372 to 45 cents
hour for unsked labor Auto drivers get S25 week up
Plumbers get from $3.50 to Sc day. Foundry machinsts
get $35 week Experienced clerks and statesmen get from
S75 to $50 month Paper hangers $720 day, Carpen
road trainmen SIS day up.
Salem pays its firemen and policemen $100 a month";
drivers Sl5 teamsters 800 to $105 aborers S4 day. Is
school teaching worth less to the community than
labor? Is there any why teacher should draw
less pay than an inexperienced senographer hotel
belboy? 1t is shame to Salem that teachers are so
underpaid.
Cost of living has advanced 100 per cent in the
past five years, cutting the buying power of the teachers
insignificant salaries in two. How expect teach
es to continue at their posts unless these nollerabe
ditions are remedied?
Simple justice demands that the teachers be given
more adequate pay. To accomplish this special school
election has been called for Monday and every citizen with
the welfare of the community at heart should make
point to vote for the authorizing increase of
Sl5O In addition to present yearly salary for each teacher
while not sufficient, will help in meeting the increased
cost of existence.

my husband had gone away under
such circumstances and had even for
gotten (if.it had not been mtended)
| to leave me any money.
| For the first time in my life told
my mother a lie.
John came away in such n hurry
he did not have much cash ana he
! left me check. l will have to wait
until Mr.. Hicks comes to cash it. He
will be here soon, l think. 1t is the
proper thing you know. mother dear, TO
have these affairs settled Immediately.
Do you know anything about fathers
finanees?"
Mother looked at me in utter sur
price.
Why, of course not, my dear. At
the beginning Of each month your
father always gave me two hunGreS
dollars for household expenses, and
one hundred for my own use, ana he
sent you one hundred dollars wnrn
YOU weren't home Someway l had a
feeling that our income was about
six hundred dollars n month. | don't
know why have this impression be-
cause your father never discussed il
with me but he never failed to give
me the allowance the first day of
every month except this month when
he was so i'll.
HE seemed rather worried at times,
lately" mother continued, land l
think l should have asked him about
things, but my dear, he was always
in such great physical pain that I
could not add TO it by disturbing his
mind in any way. Oh l hope it will
be all right" and little mother rails
ed her frightened eyes to me, and
whispered: Il do not understand, dear,
why the good Lord did not take us
both together for with him he has
taken all my love, all that makes life
worth the living for me"
But, mother, you still have me to
live for, haven't your"
"Im not necessary to you dear
child. You have your husband--you
have John to love you and care for
you"
l looked at her quickly and then
turned away.

DOES JOHN CARE?

When I arrived home l found :

soon as possible
stood there and tore that telegram
into bits. l could not make the pieces
, small enough. 1t seemed to me that
he could have done nothing that would
have outraged me as did this tele-
gram.
It was extremely easy to dictate q
telegram to his stenogrnpher but he
would not discommode himself the
! least bit for me. Mechanically l began
to take off the close bonnet and long
crepe veil that is prescribed for fun
erals in a small town. Just as / was
ready to go to mothers room, Sarah
came to mine and said:
Katherine. your mother wants to
see YOU"
l seemed to feel by the toss OF
Sarah's head and her manner her
deep-seated disapproval of my hus-
band.
/ went down to mothers room and
found her with her old d-fashioned
purse turned inside out on the table
besides her. There were two or three
bills and some small change on the
table
Mother said to me: i'kate, darling
will YOU let me have some Inones un-
til Mr.. Hicks tells me where stand :?
Your father although he was confin-
ed to his chair, always took care Of
his money matters-he never bothered
me with them-and of course for the
last few weeks he has been so i'll that
| have not wanted to annoy him with
questions OF this kind Here is a bill
for the telesrams that l sent prepaid.
[ have never run grocery bill in my
life and Sarah has just brought me
the list Of today's groceries which I
find 1t will take more than the cash
have here"
1t was then for the first time i
realized that John had not left me any
fact he had given me
money but once since our marriage
and that was in playful liquidation of
a wager which l had won from him.

Years

You We're taught at school
that your body undergoes a
complete change of structure
every seven years.
This tearing down and build
ing up process of body tissue
continues without a moments S
pause throughout life.
And when a man gets into a
physical condition that the tis-
sues keep breaking down and
wasting away faster than Ma
ture can replace them, right
then he begins to grow odd.
This doesn't necessarily
mean, however, that he has
reached an advanced age.
Thousands upon thousands of
people begin to break down,
their vital organs giving evil
dence of fast approaching de-
cay, long before they reach
middle age simply because
they fail to give Nature, at
the proper time, the needed
help to rebuild.
III you are beginning to show
the slightest sign of a physical
'let-down"--if you are losing

vigor--if high tension energy
