Hart, director of the division of films, committee on public informa tion. "It should be brought to the atten tion of the public the importance of the Official War Review as a means of stimulating enthusiasm and bringing home to the people a realization of the real meaning of the great struggle," writes Mr. Hart. "This realization will mean a more general response to the plea for investments in liberty bonds and thrift stamps as well as a greater generosity in contributing to the vari ous war-aid organizations. "The Official War Review is dis tributed by Pathe, but it is a Govern ment enterprise, and the greater part of the revenue accruing from it reverts to the committee on public Information for the extension of its propaganda work. "The pictures are taken by Army photographers assigned by the various allied governments. They are history In the making. They instruct. They thrill. They keep America in pictorial touch with the most stupendous war the world has ever known a war in which we are to be the deciding factor." i Mary's Soldiers In Play.

The Social Demokraten, in another article dealing with the signing of the commercial agreement between Denmark and the United States, notes with the greatest satisfaction, that the American, promise of supplies will to a great extent al leviate the unemployment situation. Representatives of the various trades unions were asked by the newspaper what the effects of the agreement likely would be. The answers express grati fication and the hope that the supplies will come soon. Mr. Laurltzen, a member of the freight board, said the board had made all arrangements In view of the new situation. The necessary tonnage al ready was available to bring goods to Denmark, he added. The president of the tobacco workers union. Christian Jensen, said that since September, 1917, the tobacco trade had been badly off. In September, 1917, the employment was 4.47 per cent and it had steadily Increased and now was 40 per cent. The tobacco promised, ne added, would cover 80 per cent of th normal consumption, but everythln depended on getting the goods quickly as a remedy for the unemployment. The assertion was made by the tex tile workers' union that to keep th cotton spinners going, 100 bales were wanted daily. The quantity promised, therefore, was half the actual needs. It was adde that 2000 tons of yarn would materl ally better the situation. PORTLAND' STILL LEADING City; Remains First In Fir Preven' tlon, Reports Returned Official.

GIRL HALLS FOR MEN Big Dormitories Taken for Stu dents' Training Corps. SMALL HOUSES FOR WOMEN Eight of the Best Fraternity Build lngs at Oregon Agricultural College Will Be Opened for Girl Student. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallis. Sept. 23. (Special.) Waldo and Cauthorn Halls, campus residences for women at the Oregon Agricultural College, will be requisitioned for hous- ng men of the Students Army Train Ing Corps, thus supplementing the large barracks now being rushed to completion and others to follow. This will make possible the desire of the War Department to consolidate its men n a single group of buildings on the south side of the campus. Tire principal student residences, in cluding club and fraternity bouses. long the north campus, together with many of the important college build lngs adjacent, will be devoted to the nterests of women. These new halls of residence for the women will be oper ated by the college on the same basis on which the large campus halls were managed. Each will be in charge of a preceptress or a house mother, and all nder the stewardship with the same charge for room and board. Eight of the best fraternity buildings are being taken over for the use of the young women. The nine sorority houses will also be available. Each residence hall will accommodate between 40 and SO persons and thus there will be ample accommodations for all women who en roll. These attractive buildings art ear the new library building, the hostess house, the home economics building and the school of commerce. It is felt by the college authorities that the young women can be cared for to better advantage in the smaller groups than in the large groups in Waldo and Cauthorn halls. The ten dency of the last three or four years, in fact, has been to give the young women who have shown special competency, the privilege of organising as a soror- y or elub and to take a house under the direction of a preceptress as their residence. The dean of women has taken much Interest la this phase of college life for women, and the high standards of scholarship maintained tu sororities and eluba, together with the individual leadership of their members, has amply justified the plan of the smaller residence group. The new plan merely carries out on a large scale the plan that has been successful I on a smaller scale for at least four I years. lit ii m n Tie Mtra s FIRE DUE TO COMBUSTION Oil-Soaked Rags Thought Respon sible) for Kllliam Blaze.

Physicians serree that nearly nine- tenths of the cases of stomach trouble. dyspepsia and indigestion are caused by an excess of hydrochloric acid In the tomach. "Acid btomach " is an exceed ingly dangerous condition because the cid irritates and inflames the delicate tomach walls and lining, causing the partially digested food to sour and fer ment and develop gas. bloat, nausea and heartburn. Acid stomachs should be neutralized. Do not treat with digestive pills or drugs but give the stomach a magnesia bath to clean out the dangerous acid accumulation and then all pain and dis comfort will quickly stop. To give the stomach a genuine mag nesia bath go to any drug store and get about 2 oz. of pure bisurated magnesia powder and take a teaspoonful in a cup of hot or cold water. ThlB makes an agreeable drink and washes down into your acid Inflamed and burning stom ach where In less than ten minutes It soothes and cools the heated walls and takes up or neutralizes every traoa of excess acid much as a sponge or blot ting paper might do. With the re moval of the acid from the stomach every symptom of indigestion will stop. Magnesia baths are being taken daily by thousands of former dyspeptics who now eat as they please without a sign of Indigestion. Adv.
