One of the biggest difficulties in the past has been the Tho exi.lae lux ha uin-ady passed

As we have said previously in this column, these two "dn of n.iuP,S:.

rectly to teaching.
As Dr. Mali' has said repeatedly in slatemenla.of policy,
the needs of the university in finances is determined directly
by the growth hi the student load a ne.cd that should be
mot by gradual increases in revenue for higher education
as a, whole.'. It's a policy with which tho heads of the other
schools arc entirely agreed, and Dr. Hall has constantly
fought any tendency to tear down other schools by seeking
their finances for his own. lie is blessed with a broad vision
of education and a wide knowledge of how an investment in
education can best bo made an investment in general state
prosperity.
It would Ik; ridiculous for the people of Eastern Oregon
to seek more revenue at (he present time to eximnd the new
normal school located here when we have nothing to indi
cate the enrollment or the di'mands on this institution. It
will be very sensible to seek more revenue if and when this
school becomes crowded and tho possibilities of greater serv
ice to the citizens of this section become obvious. And it is
that rule by which all state .schools should be considered
by this new beard of higher ed'ication.
If the legislature and the consolidate board of regents can
reproach the educational problems of Oregon in such a spirit,
tho whole structure of holier education will be benefited
and state prosperity promoted. The Observer feels that the
state is not giving adequate financial support to these state
pchools, that tho work of broadening their seoic and increas
ing their facilities is a vital service that every thinking citi
ren will approve and to which every co-operation will be
given.

The Way of Inefficiency
Did it ever strike you that the removal of a body
organ is a mighty inefficientas well as inconvenient
method of stopping the trouble which that organ is1
producing? In effect, the advice to operate. is -"We
know where the trouble is, but we don't know how to
stop it, so you had best get rid of the organ, alto-,
gether." , ' ' -
Chiropractors never give such advice, for the rea
son that once the trouble is definitely known, they
know that a deficient supply of VITAL ENERGY is
reaching that organ, and, what is more to the point,
they , know how to release, .the pressure upon nerves .
ft'hich is resDonsible. "" '" ......... . .
Is not that method more efficient than dispensing ;
.with an organ for which NATURb found a need., -
