WORTHY STUDENTS SOUGHT
Professor J. B. Horner, of History
Department, Visits Hood River
In Interests of Campaign
to Fill College Banks.
HOOD RIVER, Or., July 7. (Spe
cial. ) To fill the ranks or tne nun
dreds of Oregon Agricultural College
students who are already In training
as soldiers of their country. Professor
J. B. Horner, of the history depart
ment of the institution, here today in
the Interest of the campaign, declares
that dozens of the college's teachers
are now scouring Oregon In an en
deavor to interest boys and girls who
have upto this time had but a hazy
idea of the possibilities oi a. concise
education.
"And our campaign Is meeting with
a surprising success." said Professor
Horner. "I have been spenaing my en
tire vacation in this work. And never
a day passes that I do not meet from
one to five boys and girls who will
be at O. A. C. this Fall as a result of
the message I am bringing them."
Worthy Students Are Sonjsht.
Professor Horner has been calling on
local business men and orchardista to
day, asking all if they know of any
worthy young boy or girl who would
appreciate help from the Oregon Agri
cultural Collepe.
To each of his callers he presents a
little slip on which is printed the fol
lowing list of boys and girls to whom
he offers his aid:
Some competent, aspiring youth from
whom a college education is withheld
because of limited funds.
Some discouraged boy or girl whose
earnings should be increased through
superior skill in the industries.
Some one with limited schooling who
has the ability to master a course in
vocational training, but cannot attend
high school.
Some one who, graduating from high
school, fails to realize the full value
of a college education.
Nerd of Opportunity Cited.
Rome one whose parents believe a
college education Is unnecessary.
Some one who does not appreciate the
value of a technical or industrial edu
cation. Some one in need of an opportunity
to earn a part of his or her expenses
while in college.
Some one with voice or touch that
should be cultivated by skilled train
ing. Some genius who should be placed
in contact with experts, specialists and
great laboratories.
If vou know of any such person you
can render valuable service by making
known the fact to the registrar of the
Oregon Agricultural College.
ern Oregon, Idaho and Montana. The
return trip will be a more southerly
route.
The object of the tour Is as much for
scientific observation as for a vaca
tion. They Intend to take some valu
able data concerning the botanical,
geological and agricultural condition
of the land passed through. It Is also
hoped some mineral and other speci
mens may be collected to enrich the
museum. Rev. Thomas and Rev. Hilde
brand teach most of the scientific
course and are deeply Interested In it.
They are making the trip in one of
the college cars and have made a trail
er to carry the luggage. It will easily
carry between 200 and 300 pounds
under normal circumstances. If the
roads are fairly good and the weather
anywhere near favorable, they ought
to have no difficulty in getting
through. They expect to return about
the first of August.

HOOD RIVER, Or.. July 7. (Special.)
"We old men are doing the ranch
work in the John Day country," de
clares L. E. Morse, now in Hood River
on business. . "All the young men are
away at war. We old fellows' tend the
sheep, the cattle and the crops."
Mr. Morse, one of whose sons, Ellis,
has Joined the Aviation Corps and is
In training at Camp Kelly, Ban An
tonio, Tex., says he, Frank Davenport
and Lou Morse, father of Mrs. Charles
H. Castner, of this city, president of
the Oregon Federation of Women's
Clubs, are taking care of 3000 acres
near Spray.
Mr. Morse declares people of Wheeler
and Gilliam counties are Jubilant, de
spite their labor difficulties, because
of the progress of the Eastern Oregon
communities.
"The road development Is proving a
great stimulus," he says. "Gilliam
County has already graded its part of
the through road that will connect the
Columbia River Highway with the
Lincoln Highway as far as the Wheeler
County line. Wheeler County's por
tion of this route, now tinder construc
tion, will be completed before Spring.
The Highway Commission has let the
cntract for the hard-surfacing of a
stretch of the road between Condon
and Fossil. These improvements, when
completed, will make available a route
to Huntington and Ontario 75 miles
shorter than the old way."
Reports from Anbany Are te Effect
That Publicity Manager Cronise's
Plan Worked Admirably.
t
ALBANY, Or., July 7. (Special.)
The value of newspaper advertising;
over any other kind is shown by the
success of the Westarn Oregon Round
up here this week. The attendance
here was far greater than that of last
year, while the Philomath Round-up
last month suffered a loss of 60 per
cent in attendance from last year's
show and other smaller round-ups in
the western part of the state experi
enced a loss also.
Ralph R, Cronise, publicity manager
for the Albany Round-up. relied alto
gether on newspaper advertising. He
ran advertisements in most of the
papers of Western Oregon, particularly
those in this section of the state and
as a result these papers gave the
Round-up considerable news space too.
The crowd at the Albany Round-up
the first day was not any larger than
expected, but on the second day a good
crowd was present and on Wednesday,
when the finals took place, the man
agement needed a larger park. Long
before the first race the grandstand
was crowded and by the time the after
noon programme started so manv were
standing that the management re-
iunaea them their grandstand admis
sions. All around the arena in front
of the bleachers people stood all after
noon, every seat being occupied. Many
people never entered the ground at all
when they found they could- not get
seats. Mr. Cronise is given much of
the credit for the large attendance, be
cause of his successful advertising
campaign.
W. C. E. Pruitt, of Pendleton, who is
a member of the board of directors of
the original round-up at his home city,
who was in Albany yesterdav. was
much pleased over the attendance here.
He said reports of such events hereto
fore showed a loss in attendance and
people of Pendleton were beginning to
be afraid that conditions were not
propitious for a big crowd now.
