Wood Products to Be Utilized Dr. Alfred Tingle Perfects Process A second successful process for the conversion of wood waste into a product that may be utilized on a commercial scale, has come out of the chemistry laboratory of the University. O. F. Stafford, professor of chemistry, first succeeded in work ing out on the campus his process for the utilization of mill waste in the carbonization and wood distilla tion industries. Dr. Alfred Tingle, former research chemist for one of the leading pulp and paper mills of Canada, has brought to perfec tion in the University laboratory a new process for producing paper pulp from wood in which shavings and similar “cull” material of the ordinary paper pulp mill may be in cluded to give a satisfactory pulp for making a heavy grade of paper. All danger of over-cooking smaller pieces of wood waste while larger pieces remain uncooked is avoided in Dr. Tingle’s method. Another important feature of the new process, according to Dr. Tin gle, is that it can be carried on with a much simpler and less expensive plant than is needed for any other form of pulp. The application of Dr. Tingle’s digestion method, which he believes may prove applicable to North western fir wood and at the same time be cheap enough in operation to use in connection with waste products, is oxpected to bo of great importance to the lumber industry. ■When the now process is applied to high grade spruce chips, ithel product may be considered, for many purposes, a competitor of kraft pulp. Dr. Tingle was invited to com plete his research in the University laboratory and he accepted the courtesy while, on a visit to Eu gene. Miss Lillian Tingle, profes sor of household art's at the Uni versity, is a sister of Dr. Tingle. Dr. Tingle’s process involves a double treatment of the wood. The chips or shavings are first digested unde; pressure with a solution made from lime and sulphur. The product is then crushed to a fino, soft pulp in certain very cheap acid, which ‘ ‘A Woman of Paris’ is unbeatable. In the matter of commendation we find that the very best is none too good.

Anchorage Pajt Is Narrated by Scribe (Continued from page one) move the securely lodged piece of wood, Hayward applied his teeth to the task, and out came the- sliver. In those days—20 years a^b— there was no running water in the place, a pump on the back porch supplying all their needs. Frater nities wore installed in the Oregon in 1900 and at that time house owners were fearful of renting houses to organizations, lest the houses should be wrecked. Accord ingly* the organizations were com pelled to live in whatever was avail able. The Anchorage has long been a center of activity. Before the time of the Kappa Sigs, the “shack” was used to harbor canoes. Upstairs, dances were held, and in it were conducted Eugene’s first dancing classes. Several years ago, a man named Paul Bond operated the place, after which it fell into com parative inactivity. Until within the past four years, a sidewalk extended up the race to the military bridge, constructed during the 8. A. T. C. period, and then ran by devious ways to the river. This walk is said to have antedated the graveyard in its ro mantic appeal. In 1920, Mary Susan Kieffer and Mrs. Frances Marshall took over the operation of the place and named it the Anchorago Tea House. They united the “shack” with the residence, and the result is the Anchorage as it now stands. Be fore coming here, Miss Kieffer was a domestic science instructor at O. A. C. Mrs. Marshall was an east ern educator and is known in the East as a pioneer in educational work with younger girls.
