THE biggest year in th hlstorr of

a view to relieving the congestion ex
perienced last year. The faculty staff
Is being strengthened to meet the In
creased demands.
The vote of confidence given the
schools and higher educational Insti
tutions of the state through tax
measures passed last May is expected
to work wonders in the educational
system of the state. The voters have
provided something like $2,000,000 a
year for the improvement of element
ary schools which will pour a stream
of the brightest young people through
the high schools and into the state in
stitutions. Now that the college Is
assured an adequate sum for mainte
nance, plans are being made to care
for the influx of students by giving
them practical training under the
most competent instructors obtain

arising-through the war. Graduates

Work is offered in civil, electrical,
experimental, irrigation, mechanical

tory rewards than forestry. The
school of forestry offers work in for
est administration, forest mapping,
log scaling, lumber economics, log

Mining is another field which is cred
ited with offering great opportunities.
The school of mines expects to train

state's extensive mineral resources.
The school of commerce trains stu
dents for business life. This depart
ment is growing rapidly, ranking
third among the divisions of the col
lege in point of total enrollment. The
school of pharmacy meets the re
quirements of scores of students. The

than a million -dollars worth of equip
ment is used.
Home economics Interested 557 stu

STUDENTS IiEARX QTJICKXT
Gillespie School of Expression
Teaches Vs of Inherent Powers,
To teach students to use both In
herent and acquired Dowers efficient
ly is the aim of the Gillespie School
of Expression. Through its years of
existence, tnis school has enabled stu
dents to acquire all knowledge quick
ly and easily.
The school has been passed upon as
an "institution of learning" by the
state superintendent of publio in
struction and is indorsed as such by
men and women engaged in various
professional and Industrial lines. Ex
cervice men who are entitled, to state
educational financial aid are privi
leged to use this state aid in this In
stitution. After attending the course of In
struction offered, cne should be able
to converse more readily, to read a
book more intelligently, to listen to a
concert more understanding, to In
terpret from the platform or the
stage more convincingly, to teach,
preach or argue a case at law more
effectively, to transact business more
successfully and to live the common,
every-day life with more artistry.
Few applicants for admission to
the school are regarded as undesir
able, for most of them have a laud
able ambition and a capacity for
work.
A limited amount of summer work
is being carried on during July and
August. The full semester opens on
September 14. A series of studio re
citals are given each year, to which
anyone Interested may gain admis
sion. The principal of the school is
Emma Wilson Gillespie.
AVIATORS TO BE TRAINED
bodied In the curriculum and the fac
ulty of the college is composed of
men and women who have received
raining which eminently qualifies
them for their task. Centrally located.
he school is attended by students
of Washington and California, as well
as Oregon. A number of students
from eastern and central western
states also attend.
Li. Xi. Adcox Plans Most Complete
School In West.
One of the most complete aviation
schools in the west will be opened in
Portland soon by L. L. Adcox, presi
dent of the Adcox Auto and Gas En
gine school. The new institution will
be the first school of its kind in the
Pacific northwest.
Mr. Adcox has Just purchased 11
airplane motors from the government
and will leave soon for the east to buy
two new, modern airplanes. Accord
ing to Mr. Adcox, he will offer an
aviation course in which the student
will receive training in overhauling
and repairing all kinds of airplane
engines as well as flying.
"To teach the student to fly with
out teaching him all about airplane
engines and construction would be
like teaching one to drive an auto
mobile without showing him every
thing about the engine," said Mr. Ad
cox yesterday. "Such a course would
have no commercial value to the stu
dent. On my trip I will hire two
overseas aces and as soon as I can
ocate a good landing field, we will
open the most complete aviation
school in the west.
Our auto school has grown to such
an extent that we are having a three
story building constructed that covers
100 by 100 feet, giving us 30.000
square feet of floor space. The build
ng will be located at East Hancock
and Flint streets. We had more than
500 students in one class last season
and more than 200 of them were Or
egon ex-service men, while about SO
disabled soldiers were placed in train-
rig by the government and seven
students were placed with us by the
state industrial accident commission.
NORTH PACIFIC IS GROWING
College Draws 7 0 Per Cent of Its
Students From Oregon.
North Pacific college Is one of ths

mately 80 per cent of its students are
drawn from Oregon, while the re
maining 70 per cent come from every
state In the Union as well as foreign
countries and provinces.
The United States government.
after careful investigation of the col
lege s equipment, buildings and
courses of study, classified it as a
class A school, while the Canadian
government, after investigation, de
cided to send many of its returned
soldiers there for professional edu
cation.
The dentist class of 1919 was the
last to graduate under the three-year
term. All classes In pharmacy are now
required to complete a full four-year
course and the requirements for ad

tlon or equivalent, will soon be
raised to one year at college prepara
tion.

Where to get this training Is
a question vitally Important.
The wrong training might make
