Capitalists Who
Spend Elsewhere
Scored by Clark

Scoring the lack of civic pride that
impells a man to invest his money in
enterprises outside of his home city,
and pointing out the benefits that Sa
lem would derive il all OF the capital
spent elsewhere was directed to de-
vslopment or Industrial channels here,
F. n. Clark, of the Salem Kings Prod
ucts company, with offices in Port
land, sounded the discordant note of
progress in this city when he talked
before the meeting of the Salesmens
club in the Commercial club last night.
Clark spared no adjectives or exple-
tives in his severe derislon of the
methods of "some business men," and
asserted that it is the infallible trait
of citizen to fail to see the oppor-
tunities that Turk right at his side, and
reach forth blindly into other localities
to seek his avocation or financial ag-
grandizement. 1T rests with us sales
men to show to this class Of people
that their opportunities lay mere, mol
somewhere else" Mrs Clark told the
club
Absent members of the club also
came in for thorough upraiding
when Mr.. Clark surveyed the attend
ance and declared: Il would rather
talk to one live man than thousand
dead ones"
The Salem Kings company will be
unable to fill orders this season for
dehydrated loganberries because OF
the exorbitant price demanded by
growers Mr.. Clark said. The inabil'
lty of the company to sell berry packs
after being compelled to pay such high
rates to growers will seriously impair
the loganberry industry, said he.

Vandamme's Christmas Eve-By Paul Ginsty

1hat' IN this conquered country, their
enemies were men who spoke their
own language.
In the middle Of the column was
a wagon filled with dirty straw, in
which were the wounded and the
moribund. Among them was a
young woman dressed in rags, her
hair hanging down over her bare
shoulders. She lacked the stoicism
of most of her companions. So
many privations, SO many painful
experiences, had broken her courage
Tears rolled down her cheeks at the
entrance to the city; terror seized
her and she fell in faint.
The convoy stopped before the
city hall, where General Van
damme's headquarters were. The
General stood at the window, gaz-
ing at the sad spectacle below. He
was a rude soldier, who had felt
the intoxication Of liberty and
known all the fervent passions of
patriotism. In war he had no more
pity for others than he had for
himself, and he was always first to
reach the zone of danger. But he had
no taste for rcprisals after an action.
That was a matter t. /, left to the
civilian commissioners His heart
wasn't easily softencd. He had lit
tic time for emotions. But by
chance he noticed the swooning
woman, under the flare Of the
torches, and he kept on looking at
her with n sort Of compassion.
The Emigres were pushed under
the arches Of the old palace. Those
in the wayon were carried to q
nearby stable, where there was at
least fresh straw. But tho men Of
the 9Th Paris Battalion, assigned to
this duty, were not used to being

woman in the cart. Silence fell on
the square, where the wagon was
left standing.

thought Vandamme.
He returned to his table, bending
over the maps there, for he was pro-
jecting one of those surprise ex-
petitions for which he was famous
toward Arnhcim and Cleves.
Some minutes later he heard a
sound coming from the court of
the palace, transformed into a
prison. He got up and opened the
window.

reached him, and he distinguished
the words Of hymn:
