For 20 years Mr. Ballin has been associated with . Industrial af fairs of Portland, building ships. dredees. machinery, boilers -and acting as consulting engineer here and on th sound. "It Is natural that I take a great Interest in the development of our city as a manufacturing and maritime cen ter," says Mr. Ballin. "to accomplish which it is not only necessary to es tablish places of manufacturing but also to Instill into our coining genera tion a well directed Interest In and knowledge of technical matters. "My observations have led me to the conviction that the 'practical educa tion of our boys and girls, instead of being considered paramount, is as yet given only secondary consideration In the curriculum of our public schools. 'What the country needs is me chanics, engineers, builders and pro ducers, who are the backbone of our commonwealth. I believe a practical system of cooperation can be inaugu rated between all employers and the schools for the education of their ap prentices, many of whom are obliged to work for a living before the comple tion of a sufficient training. "I believe in physical culture, but not in excessive sports. "Military training may be objected to by many, but the rudiments of such training- should be embodied in ths physical exercises without installing into the minds of our youngsters any objectionable spirit. "Many of my friends Knowing my views as above sketched, have pre vailed upon me to offer my services to the voters by becoming a candidate for school director. If these views and my professional qualifications appeal t the parents and taxpayers, as they do to them whose signature appears under their invitation to me to become a candidate, I shall be honored to have their support at the coming election."

Established in Portland 10 Years i1 5r I S nullum nil and don't forget your Sanatogen Sound advice indeed! And from the heart, for the doctor knows from longexperience how Sanatogen helps whenever it is a question of toning up a patient. Up to 1912 some 15,600 commendatory letters had been received from physicians who used Sanatogen to aid the treatment they had prescribed. In 1914 this total grew to 19,750 and now almost 23,000 such letters are on file at our various offices. Twenty-three thousand letters from practising phy sicians acknowledging the good Sanatogen has done in their practices, or even in their own families! A re markable tribute yet these letters indicate but a frac tion of the actual number of physicians who. recommend Sanatogen, for naturally most doctors cannot take the time to report their experience of Sanatogen. And so also with laymen : The letters from CoL Henry TPatterson3ir Gilbert Parker John Burroughs and others, telling of the invigorating effects of Sanatogen are but an echo of what thousands of others daily experience. So you may well take the advice un to yourself and when through over work, worry or illness your body and nerves get out of balance, resolve not to "forget jour Sanatogen." Grand Prba.
