"This lack of adaptlbility puts men In the position of constantly sup pressing fear'and the continued men tal conflict Is responsible for great 'nervous strain. "Shell shock is a combined prod uct of a number of things which might be listed as: 'The almost un precedented fatlguo of military serv ice at the front; luck of perfect adap tation to military life; responsibility lack of sleep, life under the most trying of conditions, suppression of the fear of being afraid, Irregularity of meals." XO PAVIXG DIKING PROGRESS OP WAR These Are Exceptional Value fSHLAIVO Mr I'HYCHOLOGV CLASSES j STUDY SHELL SHOCK! Dr. Edmund S. Conklin, head of the department of phyehology at the U. of 0., is delivering a series of lec tures on shell shock In connection with his regular courses which are proving most Instructive to his classes and to other students and out siders who are Interested, in the sub ject. Under the general head of the psy chology of shell shock, Dr. Conklla has dealt with the better knowi phases of the disease, dividing his lectures Into yiree distinct branches, the first being "The Psychology of the Citizen Turned Soldier," the sec ond, "Characteristics of Shell Shock Cases," and third, "Interpretations, Treatment and Prevention of Shell Shock." Speaking of the difficult position of the citizen soldier and the neces- oilj iiivii iic id uuuci tut auajatug himself with unprecedented rapidity to the conditions In the trenches, Dr. Conklin said, "The armies, especial- According to the Eugene Guard, R.

They report the road In very good shape except where traffic la being lnter fgrcdwith by work. At such places the road Is bad, and causes much annoyance.

PLEDGE DAY FOIt WAR STAMPS IS JUXE 2S President Wilson, Governor Withy combe and the mayor of every city and town in Oregon are expected to issue proclamations calling upon the people of the state to observe Fri day, June 28, as war savings stamps "pledge day." It Is expected that on that day Oregon will pledge itself to the pur chase of $15,000,000 worth of war savings stamps before January 1, 1919. With the $3,000,000 of the quota already taken care of, the state's en tire quota will then be assured. The state war savings stamp com mittee and all workers, postmasters, selling agents, newspaper men and others, met In an all-day conven tion at the Elks temple, Portland, on Wednesday, to officially launch tho month's campaign preparatory to the big "push June 28. 1 - It is not Intended that the na tlonal campaign shall affect the reg ular sales of war savings stamps, nor the activities of war savings socle ties and the work of the children. All this Is to go on as usual, and then on June 28 every citizen will be expected to sign a pledge to buy as many war savings stamps as his circumstances will allow every week or every month for the rest of the year. Every Oregonian must have least $20 worth of war savings stamps by January 1, 1919, if Ore gon is to maintain Its record in sup port ot war financing propositions at OREGOX DEANS VERY GOOD FOR CAXXIXG The table quality of Oregon beans Is equal to those of any other par; of the country, and the bean Indus try should be made permanent. In support of this statement, Prof G. R Hyslop, of the O. A. C. experiment station, quotes from a letter received from the famous II. J. Heinz, makers of the well known 57 varieties of pure food products, as follows: We did not get opportunity to buy any of . these beans, but we have some samples. However, we are In clined to think they would be very good for canning purposes and natur ally are Interested in knowing the outcome of last season's efforts. "This statement of quality coming from the manufacturers of bean pro ducts of the very) highest quality should be very encouraging to Ore gon growers," says Prof. Hyslop "The bean crop Is too valuable a cul tlvated crop to lie on any other than a firmly established basis. The larg est problems for us are the choice of early maturing varieties, harvest ing and threshing promptly, and tho careful grading and standardizing to get the advantage' of the best mar ket. "By centralizing on Lady Wash ington and Mexican tree beans, and following right methods of harvest ing and grading, Oregon may'becoma famous for bean production. Because they are a leguminous, cultivated cash crop, they are particularly de sirable In Oregon cropping and ro tation systems." COIN OR CURRENCY CANNOT GO THROUGH THE MAIL The CORRECT TREATMENT FOR COLDS Colds are contracted whenstrength is lowered and the inflammation easily develops bronchitis or lung trouble, while grippe and pneumonia frequently follow and any cold should have immediate treatment with The National Strength-Builder which first builds up the forces by carrying rich nourishment to the blood streams and creates real body warmth.

Swenson (fX McRae Ashland, Oregon Because of numerous attempts to send through the malls to foreign countries coin and currency, the post office department is again calling at tentlon to order 731: "In conformity with the proclama tion, and the regulations thereunder issued by the president on Septem her 7, 1917, concerning the export or shipment of coin, bullion and, cur rency, it Is hereby ordered that U, S. coin or currency, gold coins whether of United States or foreign mintage, and gold bullion, are pro hibited transmission through the reg- ular or parcel post mails to countries outside of the United States and Its posessions."
