GLASSES TO START
Reed College to Have School
of Physical Education.
EMERGENCY TO BE MET
Instruction Will Begin June 2 4 and
Continue Until September 6.
Shortage In This Field la Es
timated at About 2 0 00.
In response to the urgent call of the
Government Reed College, for the first
time, will conduct a Summer school of
physical education. This school will
cover not only the usual session of six
weeks, but a second session. Classes
will extend from June 24 to Septem
ber 6. The main purpose will be to
train teachers of physical education to
meet the wartime emergency. It Is es
timated that the shortage in September
of trained men and women In this field
Will be more than 2000. -
The Secretary of War has Just urged
upon all the schools and colleges of
the country to abandon the traditional
policy of concentrated efforts on a few
students of extraordinary ability for
the sake of winning games, and to
adopt a policy of athletics for all.
Policy Net Changed.
As this has been the definite and
cottled policy of Reed College since
Its foundation, no change of policy is
necessary for the Reed College Sum
mer school of physical education. On
this subject President roster has this
to eay, in the Annual volume of the
papers of the National Education As
sociation, which has just been received
from Washington:
"By the customary policy of vicarious
athlctitcs no college can fully meet its
obligations as an agency for National
defense. The experiences of the past
three months In raising an Army have
driven home this truth as never
before. The first call of the Govern
ment was for thousands of college stu
dents and recent graduates to enter at
once the training camps for officers.
The immediate need was for .men with
minds and bodies disciplined by per
istent physical training under trained
leaders and by regular participation in
rigorous athletic games. There were
not enough available intercollegiate
athletes to meet 20 per cent of the
need.
"Thousands of the college seniors
and recent graduates were unable to
pass the physical examinations. The
universities and colleges had not ade
quately provided for this part of their
preparation. A majority of these men
had been without Incentivtes and
equipment for regular athletic training.
Statistics furnished the National Col
legiate Athletitc Association by 143
universities and colleges engaged in
intercollegiate athletics . show that
only about 17 per cent of the total
male students participated in the
games, and that not half the students
In these institutions engage in any
form of systematic or organized ex
ercise. Of these institutions, all of
which promote Intercollegiate ath
letics, 87 per cent are reported as
doing nothing to foster and encourage
the types of physical exercise and
healthful recreation that a student is
likely to use in after-college life.'
Team Training Overemphasised.
"These colleges spend about 60 times
as much money for each member of an
intercollegiate team as they spend for
the games of each of the . other stu
dents. Thus our universities, taken as
a whole, have failed to conduct their
athletitcs in such a way as to achieve
all that the Nation has a right to ex
pect of them as agencies for National
defense."

SILVERT0N TO CELEBRATE
Judge McGinn, of Portland,
gaged to Deliver Address.
En
THE JAZZ DENTIST
BY DR. PAINLESS PARKER.
You have heard you couldn't be in the same township and miss him the jazz "artist." He maltreats
a pair of cymbals, a bass drum, a tango banjo and a mouth organ all at the same time.
But you wouldn't want to make a steady musical diet of this sort of hash, would you?
When you desire music you attend concerts where artists that do but one thing appear.
A lifetime of work, plus genius, gives us Paderewski.
Caruso stirs the hearts of tens of thousands, because he has spent a w orld of time and thought and en
ergy on his work.
It is a rare musical genius that can master one branch of music; there never was one that was a
master of two.
But in dentistry we find jazz dentists who try to do everything, and who, in the nature of things, can
do nothing well.
.
There are six branches of dentistry. No man can maintain the high skill he should without spe
cializing in one of these.
Myself and my associates do the work that we are adept in.
There is no place in the Painless Parker organization for the jazz handy man.
Expert service, the best of materials, a volume of work that makes reasonable prices profitable.
These are the cornerstones on which has been built the largest dental practice in the world.
Last year the teeth of more than 100,000 patrons were repaired by the Painless Parker system.
This was the greatest tribute, after 26 years of conscientious work, ever paid to business efficiency in
this line.
Nineteen Painless Parker offices in the United States.

Seven Dangerous Crossings, Used by
Thousands of Antolsts. Weekly,
Will Be Eliminated When
Task Is Finished.
The new grade crossing and vladuot
at Sandy boulevard and East Thirty

O.-W. B. & X. Company's tracks In Sul
livan's Gulch and 60 per cent of all
bridge work Is now completed.
The Sandy boulevard viaduct Is the
first of the bridges to be completed.
The contract for the work was let on
March 9, 1817, to be completed at the

the year the City Council . granted a
six months' extension of time and It is
believed that all work In connection
with the project will be completed
within that time.
Seven Crossings Eliminated.
The contract was given to the Pier
son Construction Company, which In

earth fills were made by the Pacific
Bridge Company, of Portland, the pv
lng and construction of sidewalks and
curbs was completed by Oscar Huber
and the steel erection on the bridges
was given to the Poole-Dean Company,
also or Portland.

other war industries has caused the
contractors no end of trouble, but after
some delay the work is now nearlng
completion on every unit.

The little daughter In a Yamhill
County home was much perturbed
when she found her father scraping
the family flour barrel that the last
ounce of Its contents might be turned
over to the Government to be sent
overseas to feed the American soldier.
"How will we get along, daddy, if
we have no more flourT" the child
aaked.
"The flour is needed for the soldier
boys fighting to win the war for us."
explained the father. "Tour mamma
and I have decided to send our shares
to the soldiers and the people of
France, who have very little to eat. If
you want us to keep your ehare we will
not send It, but that might mean that
some little boy or girl would go
hungry."
The response was Instant and as de
cisive as patriotic: "Daddy, take all
mine, too, and take it quick. Of course
I don't want to eat it if some' little
girl needs It. We have lots of other
things to eat in Oregon."
