will soon open its season were
made last night at meeting Of
the board Of directors at the Com

cial feature, and ct the present
time a baritone is being consider
ed. The second concert will be
given in conjunction with the
Symphony orchestra and for the
third concert, an instrumental ar
tist or a group will be booked to
give variety. An elaborate pro-
gram is being planned by DR..
John r. Sites for the first con-
cert. Rehearsals will begin Sep
tember II and will be held in the

er the concerts will be given at

The NJ arket

Outside of Portland there are
undoubtedly no more attractive
fruit displays than those of Sa-
lem stores. While the berries are
fast disappearing many Of the
larger fruits are at their height.
All variety of prunes, apples,
peaches, pears, melons and citrus
fruits are to be found.
The first Tokay grapes were on
the market this morning at 20
cents a pound, while the Malaga
varieties will be offered at Is
cents tomorrow. Both are in very
good condition.
Now is the time to buy toma-
toes. There is first class product
on the market. If 1t rains they
will spill: and will go up in price
like a shot. There is really q
scarcity and the present price OF
$3.50 a bushel is not too much.
The general price of sweet po-
tatoes is three pounds for 20
cents. Yakima Elberta peaches
are on the market for $3.50 and
s175 a crate. and their condi-
tion is good. Huckleberries are
priced at rs cents pound.
There will be plenty OF poultry
on the market tomorrow, the for
mer prices prevailing.
All grocery stores will close
Monday for Labor day. The meat
markets will be open until ten
o'clock.

Flying so, 600 Feet Up,
And Faster

Rickenbacker best American fighting fier thinks that
aviation has scarcely begun and he is right There is
trouble according to Rckenbacker in flying at very great
heights.
"You will be in a shaped body or fuseage, with
plenty of oxygen
"Your engine will have plenty of oxygen also, for
arrangement makes possible to feed air to the engine
at the pressure existing near the earth's surface
Another invention that makes it possible to change
the position of the blades in the propeller to give
la greater grip the air. it gets thinner will give the
engine all the hold it wants.
"Most important of ALL however is the speed that will
come from the powerful wind at great height

San Francisco after crossing the Pacific simply to avoid
fighting the high wind going back He go seveneighths
of the distance around to San Francisco WITH THE
WIND.
"Thnk of a wind blowing 500 miles an hour If you
simply sailed with it, you would go around the world in
fifty hours You have the speed that engines be
made to develop and filters in this century may that
speed in two"
This interesting readers confirming the predic
ton made here, years ago, that flying machines would
eventually go around the earth rapidly the
SEEMS to go around
Of the flying machine in general, Rckenbacker says:
Americans discovered it, they had to take it to France
find encouragement and development And Germany has
gone farther with it than any other nation Just the
Allies not allowing the Germans to make real flying
chnes compelling them to study, develop the glider in
which the is the engine, forcing them to make such
deep studies will put them farther ahead in avia
ton.
"In the they were always a little ahead and had
the advantage of in the French and other Allied FLYNN
machines"

Friendship
Is Difficult
the rarest bird among
all rare birds is Friend.

And the reason is that about
the most difficult of human relations
is Friendship.
It is the thing most craved by all
Of us. And it is that of which all Of
us have the least.
There is no hunger like the hun.
ger for companionship. 1t is deeper
than the baby's want for his moth
'er's milk or the strong mans crav-
ing for meat.
Sometimes it arises to as passion
late height as the drunkard's long
ing for drink.
For the prime and permanent cry
of the human soul is for apprecia-
ton.
Under appreciation we thrive and
grow and are joyous, as the flowers
color beneath the sun.
Without appreciation we dwindle,
pique and pine as white shoots Of
seed in a cellar.
The bitterest word in the human
language is "alone.'
And yet the lesson Of life that
comes with the years is that we must
learn somehow to thrive in solitude.
For friends are rare and difficult.
There are people enough, but oft
times in the midst of the crowd our
solitude is most pathetic.
Many a heart lives in the family,
goes about the peopled streets and
mingles with great congregations,
yet is silent and savage as is tiger
in his jungle.
Perhaps the reason is that friend
ship calls for two qualities which are
1.-THE rarest in our makeup-unselfish
mess and loyalty.
: Friendship does not require great
intelligence nor culture. Indeed,
such things are often bars to it, be-
cause they magnify our offensive
egotism.
Sometimes we think that no one
but God himself is great enough
to be real friend.
But then again we question our
Judgment when we see that a man s
best friend is his dog, who is as sub:
human as God is superhuman.
Friendship demands understand
ing. 1t even demands that one I'M
derstand us in spite of ourselves.
fFor often we desperately conceal
yourselves, and the more sensitive a
soul is the thicker it's mask.
Friendship demands faith; the
Kind of faith a heather has in his
idols. And our intellectualism has
almost destroyed this primitive
quality.
Scientific men have theory that
the atoms, even in a bar of iron or
in mass Of stone, do not touch each
other, but are remote in their atomic
distances proportionately as stars in
their celestial distances.
So also between souls are inter-
stellar spaces.
We live alone.
And alone we fare forth into the
dim unknown.
