Mrs. Koeber, nude, was huddled In a corner of the basement when her daughter arrived, officials were told. Ashes from her clothes lay smoulder ing nearby. Early reports said a stick, wrapped with cloth, had been Jammed Into her , throat but later Coroner Earl Donelson said he questioned the truth of the report and then refused to discuss It further. Last night, however, O. C. Follette, deputy sher iff in chargo of the Investigation, ad mitted that a hospital attendant had removed the stick from Mrs. Koeber's throat and burned It. Dr. J. O. Robb, who also declined to discuss the matter, was quoted earlier as saying the womion probably could not herself have forced the stick Into her throat. Rev. Miss Koeber and her brother Herman, were closeted for several hours yesterday with. Follette and Paul Patterson, deputy district at torney. Their statements were re corded but were not made public. Date for an Inquest has not been definitely announced. It may be held today or tomorrow. CHINESE PHEASANT PENS, TO BE BUILT (Continued from Page One) The movement was started and lb being carried out solely In the In terest of better Blocking of this coun ty with wild life. DR. SMITH NAMED DIVISION DEAN (Continued from Page One) Lower division organization Is Im portant to high school Benlors plan ning to enter tho state college or university next fall, Dr. Smith said In Interpreting his arrangements. He continued: "The first offoct Is to Insure for tho entering student Borne breadth of Interest and knowledge and to permit him to defer decision as to his future careor until ho can choose understanding. Tho lower division organization provides a unifying agency In the new system. Within It the student may range among the departments of basic knowledge now divided among the several schools. Requirement that students In the first two years take work In several different -fields, arranged for by a system of so-called group require ment, provides that the student Is not only allowed considerable free dom, but also led to lay a founda tion of reasonable breadth, ,r "In practice the new plan will work aome tiling like this; An entering freshman who knows what line of work he wishes to pursue may still .. register, and In fact Is advised to enroll, In the school of hi choice on the campus where major work In It Is located and continue the course through to graduation. He Is respon sible, however, to the lower division for the fulfillment of certain group requirements In basic subject. "The student who has aejectml his definite work but who for some reason doea not desire to enroll on tho campus where major work In that field Is given may still, in a considerable number of cases, regis ter for that school but take his un dergraduate work on the opposite campus. This applies particularly to the schools of business adminis tration, flno arts, home economics, Journalism, law, literature, language and art, physical education, science and social science. "Students not yet decided on their choice of major work may go to either campus where they will be en rolled merely as lower division stu dents Undifferentiated as to schools," Dr. Smith continued. "In this they will have opportunity to 'explore' the various fields of education while getting fundamental generalwork In the four great groups of physical, ; biological and social sciences, lan- l guages, literature and art." 0 is the greatest opportunity of all to make tremendous SAVINGS at the 1 Quit-Business of the Conner Store at La Grande ' Why Hills Bros Coffee IS THE MOST ECONOMICAL COFFEE TO BUY If you are sincerely interested in quality and economy, you will read these facts about the largest selling brand of coffee between the" Pacific Coast and ' Chicago. Millions, who are as careful about their house hold budgets as they are about the goodness of the coffee they buy, have made the discovery that Hills Bros. Coffee is the moBt economical. That is one reason why more people, from Chicago to the Pacific, buy more Hills Bros. . Coffee than any other brand. They know that the quality of coffee deter mines the flavor. They know that the strength of coffee determines the number of good cups you can make. Flavor without strength is ex pensive. Strength without flavor is unsatisfy ing. Only the highest quality selected coffees are used at the Hills Bros, plant. These coffees plus perfect roasting, grinding and packing, give Hills Bros. Coffee its full-bodied strength and rich, delicious flavor. Why Hills Bros. Coffee goes further This abundance of flavor is the reason Hills Bros. Coffee goes further. It is why Hills Bros. offers the greatest value. Indeed, Hills Bros. Coffee gives you such unusual goodness that your first cup is a notable and remembered occasion. The U. S. Customs Districts' records of coffee imports offer substantial proof of the unusual quality found in Hills Bros. Coffee. These records show that the per pound ' value of coffee received in the San Francisco Customs District , in 1931 was 30 per cent higher than New York's importations and 50 per cent higher than New Orleans'. Hills Bros.' plant is located in San Francisco. The enormous quantities of high grade coffee used by Hills Bros, are responsible for the quality showing of this port in the United States records. The high quality and flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee account for its popularity throughout major area of United Stales Back in the eighties, A. II. and R. W. HlUs paved the way for their product to become the most popular coffee from the Pacific Const to Chicago. They concluded that a worth-while coffee business could be built only by selling the finest quality of coffee. For fifty-four years, the attention of every individual in the Hills Bros, organiza tion has been centered on the production of quality. Quality in coffee cannot be seen with the -eye nor measured in the laboratory. It can be determined only by tasting and smelling how it tastes in the cup. Seven men devote their en tire time to the blending of Hills Bros. Coffee. None of these men has less than nine years of experience; one 1ms been blending and test ing coffee for fifty-four years. The buying of good green coffees is not the whole story. These testers know how to take the finest of green coffees from every country of the world that grows good coffee and blend them into one harmonious whole, and secure the same result year in, year out. Hills Bros, look the guess out of roasting their coffee It is interesting that almost every step in I the coffee business seems of equal importance. First, to market good coffee, you must buy high-grade green coffee. And even though the green coffees are good, they must be properly blended. Yet, the finest blend cannot be devel oped to full flavor by poor roasting. The common method of roasting coffee is in batches of several hundred pounds, but Hills Bros, roast in small quantities by their exclusive ' process "Controlled Roasting". It is precise. Every berry receives the same even roast just the roast required to develop the delightful goodness that nature makes pos sible. The process never varies, neither does the flavor. People who appreciate the same fine flavor in their coffee, meal after meal, con tinually praise this feature of Hills Bros. Coffee. Quality insured and safeguarded by grinding and packing Through scientific tests, Hills Bros, have determined the degree of granulation that will give the most satisfactory results in making coffee. The grinding is done by machines which, like Controlled Roasting, embody cer tain exclusive principles developed by Hills Bros. If you make coffee In a Drip Pot, Per colatcr, Urn, or even in a saucepan, the granu lation of Hills Bros. Coffee will give perfect results. '"' In July, 1900, Hills Bros, originated the vacuum process of packing coffee. Tin vac uum process is the only method that fully pre serves coffee freshness the air is removed from the can and kept out. And remember, there is no magic about a vacuum ran, it will not make poor coffee good but it will keep good coffee fresh. A month's trial tvill be a revelation in value received Drink Hills Bros. Coffee! Every steaming, fragrant cup will be a thrill to your taste. You will enjoy a fluvor and satisfaction such as you never dreamed of. Compared with Hills Bros.' flavor and quality, any other coffee : would cost you more. Here is the coffee of coffees. The choicest berries of the world's crop, expertly blended, perfectly masted, ground to the correct degree und packed in vacuum to keep fresh always. Order Hills Bros, toduy. Ask for it by name and look for the Arub trade-mark on the cm. Hills Bros., San Fran cisco, California. IT'S DOUBLE ACTINO
