Jan. 10. tlos Walter McCredie of the Heaver, who returned yesterday from San Francis co, will get into communication with Fielder Jonei regarding the new St LoulB-Portland alliance thla week. The working agreement waa practi cally completed before Jones departed for St Louis to take command of the combined St Louis Americans and St Louis Federals. It Is believed that Mc Credie will ask the former leader of the White Stockings for an inflelder for the second base in case Cincin nati decides to keep 1)111 Rodgers. Mac also expects to hear from Cin cinnati this week in regard to Rod ger. The Tortland boss will scout around for a couple of experienced tossers from now until the time be starts south to condition his players. EXCHANGE IS WRECKED. DAMASCl'S, Ore.. Jan. 11. A high tension wire of the Portland Railway, Light & Power company power line broke about one mile east of Damascus Saturday night and fell on telephone lines lower down. The current wreck ed the Damascus Telephone company's switchboard and the burning fuses set fire to the telephone office, which is In W. R. Dallas' residence. Mr. Dallas succeeded in putting out the blaze before it gained much head way. The operator probably would have been killed instantly had she been on duty. E IS HAPPY MAN, JUST CITIZEN NOW, HIS NAME IS JONES EVEN WIFE IS GLAD TO SEE HIM OUT OF OFFICE, SAYS FOR MER MAYOR. HE COULD HARDLY GO. "About two years ago I got down on my back until I hardly could go," writes Solomon Bequctte. Flat River, Mo. "I got a 50c box of Foley Kidney Pills and they straightened me right up." Common symptoms of kidney trouble are backache, headache, rheu matic pains, soreness and stillness, . puffiness under eyes, blurred vision, sleep disturbing bladder troubles, and a languid, tired feeling. Foley Kidney Pills help to eliminate the poisonous waste matter that causes these sym ptoms. Jones Drug Co. (Adv.) Linn E. Jones is a happy man. No longer Is he Mayor Jones. Now it's Just "Mister," and he is glad of the change. For the first time in sev eral years his connection with munici pal affairs is confined to membership of one or two commissions, lie has completed three terms as mayor and several as city treasurer. "I never felt better." exclaimed Mr Jones last night and he attributed his health largely to the fact that he Is no longer mayor. His advice to business men is that they have no business be ing mayor that Is if they wish to hang onto their business. The retiring executive finds that no matter how careful a mayor Is. people are bound to become "peeved" at him at times, and on that account stay away from his store. He says busl ness is fine now, and attributes hi prosperty to two things: the prevail ance of la grippe and the fact that, at last he is just a common, plain citizen again. "And I feel fine, too. since I left the mayor's job," he declares. The one time druggist-mayor leaned over his counter and contlned in a confiden tial tone: "You ought to see how my wife is pleased with the change; she never thought much of politics anyway, and now that I am out of the game, and dou't have to attend a council meeting or two a week, she certainly pleased."

A. C. PLACE. PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 10. Rumors are current today regarding the sue cesBor to Dr. E. J. Stewart, who re signed as athletic director at the O. A. C, to accept a similar position with the University of Nebraska. The first name to be linked with the .position was that of Dr. Sweetland, former coach of the Willamette university gridironers. who has been connected with the Hobart college team of New York for the past two seasons. Sweet land Is an applicant for the position at the University of Washington, but it is known that he would be glad to land the Oregon Aggie job. The names of Sam Dolan and "Rat'' Rinehart, both former O. A. C. players are mentioned in connection with the position. Dolan coached the gridiron ers the season before Doc Stewart be came athletic director, and he turned out a pretty fair eleven. The athletic board of O. A. C. will meet In the near future to take up the question. liooBting the berry that is making the Willamette valley still more fa mous, the Salem Statesman says: "Mr and Mrs. Logan Berry of Salem were the first guests to register at the Ore gon hotel in Portland for 191C. Of course, it was In jest. It was ex plained by the manager of t!ie hotel that the Logan Berries are newcomers to Oregon. So they are." OUR JITNEY OFFER-"Thls and 5c. Larsen & Co.

Jones Drug Co. (Adv.) Education may be divided tnlo three grand dlvlaiona: First, a school trail ing In the eacalld th R Thla la fundamental, and. without It fur ther education la Impossible. Second ly. broad or liberal education, aurh aa la given In our high achoola, college, and other Institution of (anting, which do not specifically prepare one for bla vocation. Thirdly, education directly bearing upon oat'l selected calling. Ilk that given by the medical, law, and technical school. In thla article I ihall confine myself to the second class, that of education which tand between fundamental and vocational training. Authorities are divided. Borne over practical men claim that thla cultural education I not neceaaary. and that the boy ahould jump Immediately from the fundamental Into a training which would directly aaalst him In the work of hi life; other educational ex pert strongly advocate a liberal edu cation, like that given In our college, asserting that It will broaden th mind and fit It better to grasp th re quirement of th future. The lat ter authorities do not object to th technical training, but they would have the young man ground himself In general culture. If I may put It that way, before he obtain a vocational training, or during the time In which he I obtaining It Many of the college are following out thla Idea, and adapting their cur rlcula to It, allowing th student to tudy general subjects while ha I tak ing up one or more directly In the Una of hi future work. It ha been aald that on cannot be too broadly educated. This I true, provided this education can be ob tained without too great a aacrlflce. It a boy I going to enter businee where he cannot directly use the class ic or other cultural subjects, and can not obtain a knowledge of them ex cept at enormous sacrifice, I advls j him to forego a college education; but. If he is In a position to become lib erally educated. Irrespective of hi coming calling, I ugget for him a universiur course, or any other form of broad education, which will un doubtedly better fit hi mind to absorb the technique of his trade. If, however, one Is to enter a pro fession, this general broad education will be found of direct value to him, although be may not use all of It HI mind then become hi working tools, and It should be trained along the broadest and most liberal line, a training which is not as necessary It one Is to enter business. It Is the man, more than the educa tion. The education at best can only assist him In his development In summing up, I would say: Get all the education you can, cultural and otherwise, provided you can do so without injury to your health or to your 'prospects. If you are so situated that you cannot well afford the time, because It Is necessary for you io b self-supporting at an early age, I would su rest that you forego much of. this education, which otherwise I would advise you to obtain. When In doubt, get more education than you' think you need, rather than less. It is limply a question of wheth er you can afford to pay the price.

The sale of household and kitchen i utensils la subject to all sorts of chances and changes from the fluctua tions In public taste and the march of Improvement Wood bowls and minc ing knives were once staples, but the Invention of food choppers has seri ously diminished their usefulness. The growing popularity of aluminum utensil has had some setback be cause housekeepers find the metal harder to keep clean and bright than enamel ware. The old-fashioned castlron pots, skil lets and frying pans are out of date save In remote country districts, and have given place to wrought-steel utensils, much lighter and more last ing. Every modern kitchen has like wise up-to-date small conveniences, such as mechanical lighters In place of matches, asbestos mats to keep things hot, soap containers for dish washing, cool handled stove lifters, and the like. One of the great changes that has come in the household la the vacuum cleaner, taking the place Of the nroom, the carpet sweeper and the carpet beater, and saving all this hard hand labor, since the best and most efficient cleaner Is electrically run and needs only to oe attached to the electric lighting plug. .
