Then came Harvard with a atera

movement now fast gathering converts
at Eugene. A th Bummer season ap
proaches, th men of tho college have
resolutely decided to banish forever
tho nnpatrlotlo custom of treating
th women to Ico cream at tho cor
ner drug store or tho college candy
emporium. Tho women of tho college,
although taken somewhat by surprise
by thla high resolve, came right back
at them by starting a movement for
only ono spoonful of sugar at each meal.
When first tried, thla plan worked
like tho proverbial charm, but It aooa
came ot th eara of tho fair co-eds
that th gentlemen who resided In eer
ie.! a fraternity houses were violating
tho spirit of tho ordinance by changing
the rule to read, "three spoonfuls a
day." By this means they wera enabled
to heap the sugar on their morning
cereal and do without for tho rest of
th day. Influence waa quickly brought
to bear upon tho unfortunate trans
gressors, however, and the spirit of
sacrifice le now observed to tho letter.
At Corvallio. a vigilance committee
has ' been established which compels
every student to salute th humble

1,000.000 books to the soldiers and sail
ors In the recent book drive condncted
by the American Library Association.
Tha returns are now complete. In
oreaalng totals are being reported from
avery state. Tha campaign refuses to
stop.
The total figure far exeeeda all ex
pectations of all librarians, and the
high quality ot tha gift books la like
wise a surprise. Apparently the read
Ins; public has awakened to tha desir
ability and need of supplying good
reading matter to our men In training.
An Indefatigable statistician figures
that the total collections will furnish
over 00. 000.00a page of printed mat-
ter, 17.000,000 lines of type, and 270,
000.000,000 words for th men In tha
camp, naval station and hospital li
braries. (No estimate upon tba total
number of bright Ideaa and restful
hours to he gained.)
These gift books comprise a library
one-third larger than the Library ot
Congress and more than twice tha size
of the New York Public Library. ,11
plaerd end to end they would make, a
continuous lino oi-goou literature irom
London across the channel through
Paris to the front-line trenches; or. If
plied together In a single column, they
would reach a height of 2t times that
of the Washington Monument.
But columns and monument of books
cannot long withstand Army and Navy
usage. Books soon wear out In camp
or on deck. The American public still
haa an opportunity to "help make bet
ter soldiers out of tha men and make
better men out of tha soldiers" by
giving rood books.
Afternoon readlnrs from old favorites
are held every Thursday afternoon
from 3 to 4 o'clock in Room O, of the

IN. PLANNING the Finley Institution
we had a definite thought in mind.
An institution that would offer to those in
bereavement the same refined and restful
atmosphA-e that we would expect in our
own home.
Although this beautiful residential Funeral
Institution is so distinctly a Finley idea, it
is for all, regardless of their means. No
one else can or does offer more for any
stated price.

The Kind of Soles Yon Need.
When you analyze your shoe problem carefully
you are bound to consider chiefly what kind of
soles you need.
You need long-wearing soles to cut down
mounting shoe bills.
You need waterproof soles to protect
against dampness when rubbers are left off.
You need soles that resist slipping and so
make walking safer.
You need flexible soles to be easy on the feet
and do away with the old torture of breaking-in.
You need soles that havecthese good qualities.
There are such soles Neolin Soles, developed
by scientists to have all the qualities soles
should have.
You and your family need Neolin Soles and
are entided to them.
Get them on the shoes you buy this Spring.
And have the shoes you have worn re-soled
with them.
Learn the economy, comfort and safety of
these soles. Give yourself and your family the
treat of wearing them.
They cost no more than other soles, to start
. with, and they save much by their long service.
They are found on new shoes for men, women
and children in 'most good shoe stores, and are
ised for re-soling in most good repair shops.
When you ask for Neolin Soles look for the
Neolin trade mark underneath. Dealers and
repairmen in the lists below will point out this
mark to you as identifying the genuine.
, Mark that mark; stamp it on your memory :
