The Salvation Army.

The art of remaking souls is not the
only kind of reconstruction work which is
being carried on in all the principal cit
les of the United States and particularly
in New England by the Salvation Army
To prove this one has but to visit one
of the Industrial Homes and stores that
are operated by the Army. There one
will find all sorts of articles for sale,
from Susie's last years hat to fathers
old suit all fixed up, remade, ready for
additional wear again, and all being sold
at prices which seem impossible.
At the Salvation Army stores in Bos-
ton, mems coats sell from So cents to 81
and there is an endless variety. Suits
that are torn too badly to be repaired are
in constant demand, for the wife whose
husband has only moderate salary, can
pick up suit or two for dollar, and
then Jimmie, Willie and Fred can all
have fresh clothes made from the mater
ial.
'No goods sold to dealers" is the sign
that is prominently displayed, for these
institutions, like all the others, are con-
Quoted solely in the interest of the poor.
Frequently business firm will phone to
the officer in charge and tell him that
Job lot of hats can be had if he cares to
come and haul them away. True, they
are generally last seasons hats, but the
thrifty wife can buy a new hat for a
quarter and then with her own needle
make It over till it looks like a 1921 model.
Books of every kind, detective stories
as well as the works of standard authors,
I'LL the shelves. They are all sold from a
nickel up Many of them are shipped di-
rect from the stores to the Army Hotels.
In shipment sent away few days ago,
were works by Conan Doyle, Charles
Dickens, Sir Walter Scott, Alexander
Dumas, Richard Harding Davis, o.
Henry, and Others, whose writings men
love to read.
AS to the class of people who patron
ize the Salvation Army stores, they come
from all parts of the poorer districts of
the cities. Many families depend upon
the store to replenish their supply of
clothing in these days of high prices and
the store is veritable Godsend to the
breadwinner of family who has five or
six hungry little mouths to fill and who
finds his weekly envelope barely suffici-
ent to pay the rent and grocery bill. If
persons are worthy, in many cases arti-
Giles are furnished free of charge, for
there are very few fixed prices, the Gus
toners only pay what the can afford.

LEGION MEN WANT f. M. FRET
Lincoln (Neb.) Post Takes Exceptions
to Government Officials Demand
for Use OF German.

A resolution requesting the govern
ment to relieve Henry c. farms, post
master of Emerald, Neb., from his of
flee was passed by Lincoln (Neb)
l'OSt No. of the American Legion, as
Il result of the postmaster's efforts to
suppant the American language by
the German language in church Of
Emerald.
The trouble started when the pastor
of the church invited two Legion men,
bers to deliver patriotic addresses in
the church. When the speakers ap-
peared. farms objected to their pres
ence and called for a vote of the CON
gregation TO decide whether they
should be ousted. 1t was the will of
the majority that the Legionnaires
should not be heard. After the vote,
the Legion members quietly left the

The pastor. whose invitation to the
Legion Inen was made in an endeavor
to conciiiate the pro-ierman and
American elements of his church in
their controversy over the use of the
American or German language, then

prise at the turn of events and left

In commentator of the patience of
the American Legion members a Lin
coin newspaper expresses the follow
ing sentiment in its editorial col
umns:
"The policy of the Legion to send
speakers to address meetings on in
vitation only and to teach American
ism by example rather than by force,
has everything to commend it. The
small groups of unasSimilated forS
eigners i'll this country can readily be
curdled into compact masses by hate.
On the other hand, they can be dis
solved in time by patience and friend

Over There and Here

Mr. Charles NJ. SGhwab of the U. S.
Steel Corporation, Recently returned from
an observation trip to Europe. The fol-
lowing is an extract from an address to
the Chamber of Commerce of the State
of New York week ago today:
Germany today can put ton of steel
IN England at price $40 ton cheaper
than England can make it." he said.
and is selling pneumatic tools in De-
trolt, where formerly we shipped such
machinery to Germany and sold it cheap
er than she could make it.
The difference is solely matter of
labor costs.
ut is estimated that five million men
are out of work in this country. 1t is
accordingly of supreme Importance to
the working man as we'll as to the CAPT.

never before was the need for prod
ucts so great, never was such valuable

able, never before was there so much
that needed to be done.
Il have JUST returned from Europe and
l came with renewed admiration for the
courage, the enterprise and the determi-
nation displayed in Italy, Belgium, France
and England. Germany was ahead of all
OF them IN production.
Is 1t possible that after having won
the war, we of the allied nations, with
everything IN our hands. will allow Ger
many to win the peace through the
efforts of her labor?
Labor On the whole can be paid only

even at present rates with their existing

Railroad costs must come down and
II is In the interest of ma tional prosperity
that our government, acting through the
LABOR ooafd and every other agency shall
reduce railroad wages and bring costs
down to a living point
ne same situation confronts our
merchant marine. In operating, building
and repairing ships, labor costs are hope
iessly high. That this is true, is shown
by the millions of tons of shipping now
lying idle, the great number of shipyards
with no work to do and the hundreds of
thousands of idle shipping and shipbuild-
ing men.
insofar as our people in America are
prepared to go to work at reasonable
wages, insofar as we are prepared quick
iy to abandon the artificial extravag ances

Tor new prosperity such as we have
never enjoyed before.
This is the route through which not

APPLES TO BE SCARCE.

In view OF the reports of great damage
to orchards of the South and Middle
West, due to the freeze the last week in

Tor high quality fruit is likely to bring
good prices next fall.
Tins is the opinion of Prof H. P.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Friday, October z, the third
termers gave their first class
party, which was held after the
foot ball game. Later games
were enjoyed in the gymna-
stun.
An assembly was called Tues
day, October 4th, for the new
students of James John High to
acquaint themselves with the
different organizations of the
school. The organizations were
explained in turn and some of
the school yells were given. The
meeting was closed by singing
the school song.
Wednesday afternoon of Octo-
ber 9Th the girls of the Hiak
Klatawa Club met for the first
hike of the season. They crossed
the river and followed the Ger
mantown road for a mile or more.
Many inviting trails were dis.
covered and followed until il was
time to return home. The club
hopes to have several long hikes
before the bad weather sets in.
The paper campaign was
scheduled for the first school
week of October. Owing to the
slowness of the entire student
body to respond. last Thursday
in a rousing speech, Dorothy
Coulter granted a weeks grace.
BY Monday night over three
thousand pounds Of paper were
realized. Several students have
volunteered the use of their cars
for hauling the papers. 80 by
Friday we hope to have five
tons or more.
Friday, October z. James John
eleven met Commerce on the
Multnomah field. The game was
marked with plenty of action. al
tho the field was dusty and the
thermometer registered hearty
eighty degrees. The Book
keepers registered their seven
points in the second quarter
when Grider skirted right end
for a touch down and Schneider
man kicked goal. The J. j. play
ers completed two forward
passes for a touch down in the
last minute of play Robertson
failed TO kick goal. The stars for
the Commerce were Copple and
Mix Grider; for James John. |
Serber and Ermler played a good
game.
