"Jervls was mending t hole In his head." said Ferdinand Francis. Was It fancy, or did he hold her eyes with his for a moment? She repeated his words mechanically. "A hole In his head?" With a wrenching sensation she looked away and saw Jervls jfrown lug. "I had a fall," he said. "I came down on some slippery rocks and broku my head.

Combine our three poorly rated normal schools (Ashland, La Grande and 'Mon mouth) tn one good Teachers' College at Eugene making the best possible. use of such buildings there as are modern. Use the normal school buildings at Ashland and La Grande for the development of modern Junior Colleges already established there. Move the Law School (approximately 60 students) from Eugene to Salem, eliminat ing one- expensive law library. Here are the irrefutable facts . . . No new buildings will be needed, either for classrooms or housing. The $7,000,000 State College, with threo times the instruc tional space , of the University, will far exceed the requirements of the combined -student bodies. Oregon's present .normal schools, providing only a 2-year course, are rated second poorest in the nation. According to the re port of the Federal Survey Commission, . Monmouth needs new buildings to the ex tent of $500,000.

Dl 01KVI, ULCERH II In connection with the study of duodenal ulcers certain experiments nave oeen aevisea ana carried out. In these experiments pancreatic Juice was not allowed to mix with, food substances coming from the stomach. In 13 to 18 days after the beginning of : the experiments. It was observed that ulcers formed In the duodenum. The presumption is. ,thouKh.thJsis far from established, that the unal kallzed, acid contents of the stomach In some manner eroded the mucous lining of the duodenum and produced ulcers. It is known that when food enters the stomach. It Is subjected to what Is commonly termed a "churning" process. The solid and the semi solid foods that enter tho stomach are reduced by this churning process to a mushy state. While this goes on, the Intestinal end of the stomach periodically opens 10 let our. a on or the digestive food , contents into the duodenum. I It now aoDears thaJt when the stomach opens by what Is known as tne pyloric sphincter (a round muscle l band which pinches tightly shut the I. intestinal end of the stomach), a certain amount of the alkaline fluid which Is In the duodenum enters the stomach and mixes, and to some ' extent neutralizes the acid food sub stance In the region. I This, in a measure, prepares the food for subsequent passace into the duodenum. The suggestion from these experi ments is that the formation of duo denal ulcers, and perhaps too of gastric ulcers, may be the result of the failure of the proper chemical admixture of the acid contents of the stomach with the alkaline contents of the duodenum.
