Oregon sends a bigger percentage
of its children to college than any
other state, without exception.
American farmers are not the
only ones who are appreciative of
the Fordson.
New evidence that the little ma
chine is proving successful in the
far corners of the earth is being
found every day.
Henry Ford & Son, Inc., have re
ceived a photograph showing both
sides of a medal won by Messrs.
Duly & Company, Ltd., Fordson

The medal was awarded after an
exhibition of the Fordson at the Be-

by Messrs. Duly and it is for the
"best piece of agricultural machin

Critics Everywhei
No state can have too much edu
cation. Education is thg safeguard
of freedom and of right, and higher
education is the capstone of the pub
lic school system. But higher edu
cation in Oregon is in great dan
ger.
The State University and
Agricultural College have twice as
many students as they have income
*o train.
Protect these Schools and
their great work
by voting on May 21 for the Higher
Educational relief measure. Higher
Education pays the state in dollars
end cents, in improved living, in sci
entific progress, in farm, arch ird,
garden, and stock ranch develop
ment, and in the better quality of
its public and high school teachiog.

It takes a voice out o f the ordinary to win the approval o f a musical au
thority like Enrico Caruso. But such a voice has Josephine Martino, who will
make her first western Chautauqua (our under Ellison-White direction this
year. The great tenor has coached Miss Martino in several o f the operatic
numbers she will use this summer. She appears only on the closing night.
Miss Martino has been engaged by the Edison company to make a series
o f records, and she will he one of their regularly advertised "Recreation
A rtists" next season.
“ Musical America” says, “ Miss Martino is a young
woman fo r whom a great career is promised.”
One of the biggest problems to

getting their car in parallel with the
