"but I never took the description of the
country out here very seriously, my in
terests being! centered -on the Atlantic

I'm strong for your country, strong for
it and the people I have met out here.''

eight Chinese fantan players
when Sergeant Oelsner and Pa
trolmen Burdick and Schaeffer
raided . an Oriental gambling
house at 84 Second street Thurs
day afternoon and arrested the
octet on charges of being behind
barred doors.
The policemen battered down
two doors with crowbars and
sledges before they came upon
the armor plated j enclosure. The
steel door for two hours with
stood all their assaults. China
men were finally prevailed upon
to unlock the door from the out
side. The room proved to be 40
feet square, constructed entirely
of steel. Chinese residents of the
district told the police the enter
prise had cost $10,000.

modic quaking of student knees are evi
dent at Reed college. Final examina
tions in all subjects are scheduled for
next week, and all-night sessions have
become a fad among men students in
the dormitory. Chemical, biology and
physical, laboratories are the scene of
nocturnal experiments, and steaming
coffee is generally a concomitant to the
extra study. p
The examinations this year, as former
ly, will be conducted in accord with the
Reed honor principle, which frees the
faculty of any police duty and which
depends for the honesty of students
upon the principle of student honor
which has been .effective at Reed since
the college inception in 1911.
