tricts for the passage Of the SOL
diers bonus bill to be voted upon

when representatives from Capital
Post No. of the American Legion

plain the bill and its amendments
SO that better understanding Of
the proposition could be carried to
the voters, The bill itself provides
for two mill levy with a $4,000
loan, but the amendment pro-
vides only for a one mill levy and
a $4,000 loan as a maximum.
AT Turner a committee was
organized and it is expected that a
speaker from Salem will be there
sometime during the week to go
into further detail and discuss
the question at public meeting.
At Aumsville, George Black
ston, was made chairman Of the
committee and Wednesday night
was set as the date for which a
public meeting will be held and a
representative of the Salem Post
be present to 60 into the merits
Of the new law.
At Stayton, Harry Humphreys,
owner Of the Stayton threaten,
was placed in charge of the COM
mittee and will inform the Salem
men at what time a meeting can
be held.
The organization plans for the
outlying town are under the
supervision of Allan Kafoury,

AS ONE WOMAN SEES 1T
Some Facts and Figures Concerning
the Work Hours and Play Hours
Of the Average Working Girl
by SARAH ID. LOWRIE

A VERY kindly. agreeable man. high up
"a in the great speciality he practices and
on the road to wealth because he Is ono Of
tho fcw among many, was grumbling to INC
not long ago because the medical schools of
the University and Jefferson had limited
the number of their students. He explained
TO me the hardship cntaled on the students
who had passed all the requirements, yet
because their names turned up on the wait
ing lists after the limitation was reached
they were dropped. only to find themselves
too late in applying nt the other medical
schools of the country for the coming term.
Like every one else who talks about cdu
cation these days. he had his plan for i'm
nrOvcmcnt. One Of them was TO curtail
whatever teaching there was lying around
loose that made the boys and girls in the
colleges talk or--worsc Sill--think social
ism, ! tried to probe what his idea Of so e.
cialism was. He said II was the revcrsc--to
his mind-Of conservatism. and left II at that.
I suggested tentatively that perhaps il was
to learn what socialism was in the days cf
their youth. since they were bound 10 have
either to fight il or advance il later on.
But such gloomy forcbodinS descended upon
him that | gladly changed the subject after
he had groancd out something about IN
eight hour day and n minimum wage.
However, the next day n little sheet with
the following data was handed to me by
very confirmed and | may say enthusiastic
Socialist.
sent tho little paper on to him. believing
the truth cannot be- nS bad as his forcbodings
These data are gathered by n joint com
mittcc made up of y. W. e. A.. Consumers
League and Womcn's Trade Union reports.
