from a shopping tour. Mrs. Koeber
was unable to make a statement be
fore she died.
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

(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."

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
