SIVEETSER. We have been .advertising that “Blue Hell" butter is pure, hut that of itself can hardly he ccep'.ed as conclusive. Professor Sweetser spent much time in specting our pi nt and our process from the standpoint of a thorough, scientific man. I lie fact that he volunteered his approval should satisfy every fair mind ed person that we are really doing what we advertise. I he fact is, we are doing as much to insure the purity of our product as is being done by the faculty to protect the health of the student body. What we have shown Professor Sweetser, we are just as ready to show you. If you are interested in what you eat, come and see for yourself. Then specify "Mine Hell" when you order of your grocer.

CAMPUS PRINT PUNT IS ASKED BY DECEDIS Want $8,000 to Establish Shop for Varsity Work It tlie legislature now in session giants the l Diversity the complete ap propriation asked for, a printing plant will he one of the improvements on the campus. At present, all University bulletins and publications are sent to Salem to the State Printer. 1 he state law prohibits having them printed by local printing houses, unless the State Printer lets a special subcontract for the purpose. This cumbersome system necessarily entails an unpleasant amount of delay, as well as added expense. If the appropriation is granted, and a printing plant is established on the campus, it would be possible to do all student work, and the, added facilities would make possible a daily paper. \ course in journalism would also be put in the curriculum, allowing students to obtain practical experience in every line of journalism. This would lit them for journalistic careers as soon as they leave college. A printing plant of this nature has proved most successful in the University of Washington.

Reid, '09, describes a thrilling experience in South America vith a giant boa constrictor. Mr. Reid is employed by the Brazilian govern ment constructing a transmission line o;i the Madeira and Mamora railroad .‘nan Brazil into Bolivia. During construction work one day, Mr. Reid, with his native laborers, en e: mitered a large snake, which disputed the right of way. Reid ordered his men to get clubs with which to beat the snake, but they fled in terror, leaving him to tight it out. Xot realizing that he was alone, Reid fought the monster single handed, heating it over the head with his club. This did not seem to harm the snake, but rather made it more vicious. Attacking Reid, coiled itself about his body and was crushing him, when another electrician who had heard the tight ran up and shot it. Mr. Reid is superintendent of con struction of the electric department of the railroad, and is located at Porto Velho, Brazil. This place is about two thousand miles from the mouth of the Amazon, and practically the whole dis tance is travelled by water. At present, ocean steamers navigate the river for about one-half the distance, and river boats go the remaining 1,000 miles. Mr. Reid has been employed in Portland by the electric company, but two years ago an offer from the government took him to Brazil. The upperclassmen at the University remember Reid as one of th1’ best 440 men Oregon ever turned out. Several Matters of Import a>re Considered and Settled At a regular meeting of the Dramatic Club last Thursday evening, it was de termined to give the hoys of tlje L ni versity another tryout for places in the club, the tryout to take place shortly after ex initiations. It is hoped to se cure a large number of enthusiastic con testants. It was also decided to put on the sketch, "Playing the. Game, written by Dean Collins, before exams if possible, and to give another playlet some time about the last of February or the first of March. The cast for -this second production has not been selected as yet. but will he announced in the near future. A general admission of ten cents per will he charged for these sketches. Another item of interest is the fixing of the date for the big play given an nually by the Dramatic Club, which has been set for the Thursday of Junior Week End. Early next semester a suit able play will be selected and the cast picked, so that plenty of time will be given for the perfection of a finished production. Track training ait Stanford commenced Monday. The training season opened with a monster rally last Friday to work up enthusiasm in that line of sport, and to induce more candidates to turn out for (training.
