mestic commerce, Colin V. Dyment pro

ahead of him on the register was one.
Seventy per cent was passing mark
for this examination. It called for con
Milernble technical skill, and of the 100
contestants, 75 failed to pass. The com
mission did not say who won third or
rirst place. It is the custom in the
higher posts of civil servlee'to certify the
top three men for the appointment..
A certification of education, experi
ence, and other qualifications,, that
should satisfy the commission, was re
quired before applicants were permitted
to have the questions. Several days
were then occupied by the examination
proper. One problem called for a con
structive editorial criticism of 1500
words of a number of publications oi
the bureau of foreign and domestic com
merce. Another called for editing for
publication of the 9000-word annual re
port of the commerce of the Port of
Saigon, made by the American consul
there. A third was a thesis on one of
nine commercial situations.
The chief of the editorial division of
the bureau of foreign and domestic com
merce has supervision of the many pub
lications of the big bureau. These in
clude the daily trade and consular re
ports, the monthly statements of for
eign and domestic commerce, the numer
ous bulletins and reports, the annual
commerce statements, tariff publications,
and others. A large staff is maintained
at Washington for this work.
THIENES BACK ON CAMPUS
Surgical Operation Cures His Infirmity;
Is Now Well and (Happy.
Last year there were two crippled
boys at the University who made up their
tninds to be crippled no longer. One was
Clinton Thienes and the other was Will
Rebec. Both were operated upon this
summer.
Thienes is back on the campus carry
ing 14 hours work. He still wears
crutches, but in a few months more
he expects to be walking like any other
healthy person. He was in the hospital
for six months undergoing three differ
ent operations. He now weighs 25
pounds more than he did before the oper
ations.
Will Rebec was not so lucky as his
classmate Thienes. The shock of the
first operation made him so weak that
when the time for the second arrived,
he was barely able to live.
At present Rebec is lying in St. Vin
cents hospital at Portland awaiting the
day when he can come back to the Uni
versity. lie is able to read very little
and is forced to lie on his back day after
day. It will be two months at least
before he will be able to return.
CIGARETTES TO BE BARRED
Students’ Co-operative Store Will Proba
bly Refuse to Handle Them.
Although there is some demand for
them, cigarettes are not sold at the
Students’ Co-operative store. As yet
there has been no definite ruling made
by the board of directors, but the uni
versity tradition, that' students refrain
from smoking on the campus, has in
fluenced the board in a temporary de
cision against the sale of" tobacco. It is
the opinion of Nick Jnureguy, presid
ent of the student body, that the stu
dent council will leave matters as they
nre.

AT THE SAVOY.
Charles Chaplin, in his latest eomedy
entitled “One A. M.,” which will be
shown at the Savoy theatre today pre
sents pn the screen a large number of
things that he did not learn from a
correspondence school.
The story of “One A. M.,” which deals
with Chaplin’s adventures in the home
of a bachelor friend whose hobby is col
lecting stuffed animals, in itself is ex
cruciatingly funny, but when combined
with the art of the comedy star it be
comes a continuous laugh.
Charles does a series of his protesque .
falls when he steps on a rug, laid on a
highly polished floor. Picking himself
up, he finds himself with his hand in
the mouth of a verocious tiger, while
the glazing eyes of a lynx gaze at him.
The floor is covered with skins of wild
animols, and Charles imagines himself
in a jungle of ferocious beasts, for the
walls are adorned with trophies of the
chase and stuffed animals of every
species.—Advertisement.
