14 THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, -PORTLAND, JANUARY . 21, 1917. MERGER EXPECTED TO HELP COLLEGES Present Buildings and Two En dowments Would Make ; One High-Grade School. COMMITTEE IS AT WORK Albany jColIege and Pacific Univer sity Have $500,000 Together. Costly Structures at Forest Grove Are Available. The proposed merger of Pacific Uni versity and Albany College, if it be comes an accomplished fact, will, it Is felt by supporters of the movement, be a great accomplishment In providing an adequate exponent of religious educa tion for the Pacific Northwest. The colleges have combined endowment of approximately $500,000, it is stated, and buildings at Forest Grove are all that would be required to conduct an insti tution of high-class staff and equip ment. Should the merger be approved, how. ever, it will be months before any thing definite can be decided as to now it will be worked out. The Presby terian Synod of Oregon will receive a report from its special committee on me suDJect next July. Conference Committee Meets. The consolidation was suggested by Pacific University, a. Congregational school, and the trustees of Albany Col lege, a Presbyterian institution, asrreed to consider the question thoroughly. At once a committee was named, composed or ev. i;an JiUiot, of Salem; J. S. uraaiey and Rev. J. M. Skinner, of Portland: and C. C. Bryant, of Albany. xnis committee met the past week, and made the trip to Albany to look over the college there and inquire into the advisability of making the consolida tion. Within a month there will be another meeting of the committee to make an inspection of Pacific University at For est Grove. The members of the investi gating body are pledged to look into the situation in the most impartial and careful way, and while their recom mendations are, of course, not yet formulated, they will be submitted to the Synod before they are made public Opposition Develops at Albany. There is some opposition to the pro posed consolidation in Albany among business men and townspeople there who fear the removal of the college from that city. The ultimate location, however, say members of the commit tee of investigation, has not been taken up, as yet. Whether it will be Albany or Forest Grove has not been consid ered by them, as the question first to be decided is the advisability of merg ing. The fact that the campus at For est Grove is equipped with permanent and costly buildings is responsible for the belief that the committee would recommend that city as the site. Some funds for Albany College are pledged by Albany people and should the institution be removed it is felt these gifts may be withdrawn. This Is one of the details, however, that will be considered uy the committee before its report is made. Committee members decline to fore cast what their action will be. They state, merely, that they are making their investigation entirely in an unprejudiced and impartial way and the only possible merger that will be recommended. If the committee decides It is advisable, will be on such a basis as shall be satisfactory to both Insti tutions. The decision to be made as regards Albany College will be by the bynod at the July meeting. Commission, is registered at the Imperial. R.

Optimism prevails among members of the Northwest Tourist Association committee, which Is backing House bill No. 32. providing an appropriation by the Legislature to work with Wash ington and British Columbia to bring tourists to this section of the Pacific Coast. It is felt that the measure will be passed with a safe majority in both Houses and that Its effect will he decided advantage to Oregon. The bill calls for the appropriation of $25,000 annually for the next two years. "We feel that Oregon will reap a bigger tourist crop every year, and that the attractions here for visitors will begin to be appreciated generally as they become exploited." Tiaid J. p. Jaeger, a committeeman, yesterday. "By making common cause with the rest of the Pacific Northwest, as the measure proposes to do, Oregon will get the maximum of benefit, with a minimum of expense. The whole Pa cific Northwest will be advertised as a unit and the attractions of one section or state will help alb because a tour will be mapped out for the visitor that rill attract many this way. There will be no effort made to localize the interest; the movement wilt be made the largest ever attempted in this part of the country. 'We feel that the measure will have the approval of the Joint ways and means committee. Senators and Rep resentatives at Salem are putting It among the first on the list of appro priations that are needed at this ses sion. It already has the unanimous approval of the immigration commit tee of the House, and it seems certain to pass. It will mark a new era in the tourist movement to the Pacific North west." rpHE Portland's Dinner - Dance is a scene of nightly social enjoyment by scores of the city's smart set.

Court Delays Action on County Inspect- ora Resignation $400 Allowed Held Net Nearly Enough. HOOD RIVER, Or, Jan. 20. (Spe cial.) When the Hood River County Court meets for its regular session next month & strong effort on the part of orchardists of all parts of the Val ley will be made to secure a larger appropriation than the J600 included in the year's budget for the inspection of orchards and the prevention of fruit pests. The sum of 400 was appropriat ed by the County Court for fruit in spection last year. The question was raised at the Jan uary meeting of the County Court sev eral weeks ago, when Professor L. F. Henderson, incumbent In the office of County Fruit Inspector, tendered his resignation, declaring that from a per sonal standpoint he could not afford to accept the position. Professor Hen derson furthermore states that an ap propriation of so small a sum as $600 is mere wastage. Working in conjunction with or chardists Professor Henderson has written to every other important fruit section of the Northwest to ascertain the annual appropriation made for hor ticultural Inspection. His investiga tion has proved that the sum spent for such work in Hood River Valley is only a fractton of the appropriations made in other districts. According to figures gathered by Professor Hen derson. Jackson County, for the past several years, has spent annual sums ranging from $5000 to $16,000 in main taining a capable corps of fruit in spectors. Chelan County, Washington, spends $2500 annually in. fruit Inspec tion. Yakima County last year spent more than $9000. Iu addition to the work done by county deputy horticul tural Inspectors, the state maintains a corps of 10 district fruit Inspectors, each of whom receives the annual sum of $1500. Professor Henderson has asked the county for an appropriation of J200J to carry on the work of horticultural Inspection. In case the members of the court think this too large a sum to expend on the work, he offers to conduct the work for $100 a month for 10 months, provided the court will pay his expenses of transportation. The court, at its January session. declined acting on Mr. Henderson's res ignation, postponing the matter until public hearing could be given all orchard Interests at the February term of the court. L. R. ALDERMAN TO SPEAK Educator Will Discuss Exchange of Students WiOx Other Lands. L. R, Alderman, superintendent of the public schools of Portland, will be the speaker for the University of Oregon extension course in foreign trade in the Oregon exhibit room in the Oregon, building Tuesday night. He will discuss the possibilities of exchange of students between the United States and other countries. The subject covered by Mr. Alder man Is one which is receiving the at tention of prominent educators over the entire United States. The plan of exchange of students between the higher educational institutions of dif ferent countries has been worked out by the leading European nations, and is certain to be taken up in some form by this country within the near future. In the United States are thousands of students from other countries studying our educational systems, business prac tices and social customs. Mr. Alderman has kept closely in touch with the movement and is an ad vocate of its necessity. Kelso Night School Popular. KELSO, Wash.. Jan. 20. (Special.)

It is conservatively estimated that over three million peo ple annually in this country alone are taking Nuxated Iron. Such astonishing results have been reported from Its use both by doctors and laymen, that a number of physicians In various parts of the country have been asked to ex plain why they prescribe it so exten sively, and why It apparently produces so much better results than were ob tained from the old forms of inorganic iron. Extracts from some of the letters re ceived are given below: Dr. King, a New York phy sician and au- t h o r. a a y s. "There can be no vigorous iron men with out iron. "Pallor means anaemia. Anaemia means iron de ficiency. The skin of anaemic men and wo men Is pale: the flesh flabby. lack tone, the brain fags and the memory falls and they often become weak, nervous, irritable, despondent and melancholy. When the Iron goes from the blood or women, ine roses go from their cheeks. In the most common foods of Amer ica, the starches, sugars, table syrups. spa ghetti, tapioca, sago, farina, degermi nated cornmeal, no longer is iron to be found. Refining processes have re moved the iron of Mother Earth from thARp. impoverished foods, and silly rthnlii of home cookery, by throwing down the waste-pipe the water In which our vegetables are cooked is re sponsible for another grave Iron loss. Therefore. If you wish to preserve your youthful vim and vi?or to a ripe old age. you must supply the Iron defi ciency In your food by using some form of organic iron. just as you would use salt when your food has not enougn salt." Dr. v. von TJnruh. Medical Director in Chief of the New York City Clinic, said. "I have given Nuxated Iron a fair and pro longed trial. I have been more than pleased -lon TJnrnh.Mgy-y with results and will continue its use.' Dr. Sauer. a Boston Physician, who has studied both in this country and in e-reat Eurooean Medical Institutions. says: "As I have said a hundred times (less. over, organic iron Is the greatest of all strength builders. If people would only throw away patent medicines and nau seous concoctions and take Nuxated Iron, I am convinced that the lives of thousands of persons might be saved." who now die every year from pneu monia, grippe, consumption, kidney, liver and heart troubles, etc. The real and true cause which started their dis eases was nothing more nor less than a weakened condition brought on by lack of iron in the blood." Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examina tion for life insurance. I was astonished to find him wjth a blood pressure of a boy of 20 and as full of vigor, vim and vitality as a young man; in fact a roung man he really was notwithstand ng his age. The sec ret he said, was taking Iron nuxated iron had filled him with renewed life. At 30 he was in bad health: at 46 he was careworn and nearly all in now at 50 after taking Nuxated Iron a miracle of vitality and his face beaming with the buoyancy of youth. Iron Is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change food into living tissue. witnout il. no matter now much or what you eat. your food mere ly passes through you without doing you any eooa. iou aon t et the strength out of It. and as a consequence you become weaK. pale and sickly-look ing, just liae a plant trying to grow in a soil deficient In Iron. If you are not strong or well you owe it to yourself to make the fol- lowing test See how long you can work or how far you can walk with- o u t becoming tired. Next take two five-grain tablets of ordl nary nuxated iron three times per day after meals lor two weeks. Then test your K strength again and see how much you have gained. I have seen dozens of nervous, run-down people who were ailing ail the while double their strength and endurance and en tirely rid themselves of all symptoms of dyspepsia, liver and other troubles In from ten to 14 days' time, simply by taking Iron In the proper form. And this, after they had in some cases been doctoring for months without obtain ing any benefit. But don't take the old forms of reduced Iron, iron acetate, or tincture of iron simply to save a few cents. The iron demanded by Mother Nature for the red coloring matter in the blood of her children is, alas! not that kind of iron. You must take iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated to do you any good, otherwise It may Drove worse than use- Aiany an athlete ana prizeugnter has won. the day simply because he Knew tne secret or great strength ana endurance and filled his blood with iron before he went Into the affrav: while many another has gone down in inglorious defeat simply for the lack of Iron.
