founders of Albany college and was
its president for many years. He re

the street which marks the eastern
boundary line of the city being named
Geary street in his honor. Before
he was elected president of Albany
college Mr. Williams, who was . In
augurated about two months ago,
erected this new home, and as it is
situated on an extension of Geary
street and stands in a beautiful oak
forest he named it "Geary Oaks." Dr.
Wallace Howe Lee, dean of the fac
ulty, remarked that soon after this
place was so named Mr. Williams was
elected president of the college aa
one of the successors of Dr. Geary.
Part of the time at the reception
was spent in stories of college events
of pioneer days and some of the facts
for this recital were furnished by
Dr. E. P. Geary of Portland, son of
the former president of Albany col
lege, who spent his boyhood days
on the farm near Albany.

Interests at the mouth of the Rogue
river was voted at the largely at
tended monthly meeting of the two
associations here Tuesday night.
While it was admitted by some of
the principals in the negotiations that
it might have been better to have
invited the Grants Pass delegation to
the meeting with Mr. Macleay, it was
pointed out that it would be impos
sible to procure the united approval
of Grants Pass to any arrangement
except a completely closed river,
which was deemed impossible at this
time.
E. V. Carter of Ashland, chairman
of the state fish and game commis
sion, said that.the compromise was
the beginning of a solution to an old
and tiresome controversy that the
entire state would be glad to see
ended. He complimented the directors

GASOL
NE
ITUATION
The-Necessity of Conservation
There exists today on the Pacific Coast an
acute shortage of gasoline. As this Company has
pointed out on several occasions, the condition is
due to insufficient production of crude oil and a
greatly-increased consumption of gasoline by in
dustry and by owners of pleasure cars.
Gasoline is a vital factor in the life of the com-
munity, industrially and otherwise, and it is of the
greatest importance, at this juncture, that it be used
with the utmost discretion, that essential, require
ments may be supplied.
. . .
The present is by no means the season of maximum demand, which comes
later in the year. The condition, therefore, is likely to be continuing, rather
than transitory.
, V 1 Responsibility for meeting the situation does not rest solely upon the oil
industry. The public also has a serious duty in the matter.
On its part, the Standard Oil Company is straining its resources,and or
ganization to increase the supply of gasoline. Jn the field it is working for
the maximum production of crude oil. In the refinery it is working for the
maximum production of gasoline from the crude oil and it is spending large
sums of money on equipment for new processes, of its own discovery and de
velopment, whereby a still greater yield of gasoline will be obtained.
The point already has been reached where gasoline must be conserved
most carefully. That is a duty of the public. In consumption of this prod
uct, essential industries must necessarily come first pleasure utilization
thereafter.
Already the Company has taken steps toward protecting the supply for
. the vital needs of industry which, if lessened, would affect the business life of
the community. There is now the danger of a curtailment of supply to non
essentials such as pleasure cars.
The assistance of the public, therefore, is imperative. Until lately, gaso
line has been abundant, and its lavish and extravagant use has been pos
sible. That time has passed.
v Buy as little gasoline as possible.
Use what you must Waste none. ,
