GREAT DATS FOB OLD WILLAMETTE
These are great days for "Willamette University.
At the annual meeting of the trustees yesterday there vras
brought up for action an offer of the General Education Board to con
tribute $35,0000 of a new million dollar endowment fund, and also a
telegraphed offer of $17,500 annually for two years for the Ralaries scanty means for the bednn
of teachers, conditioned upon the raising of a like amount by friends PJUTniw Wer bulld,n!
of the institution. This offer was also from the General Education
Board, which was created aj few years ago by John D.-Rockefeller,
with headquarters in New York City.
' The board of trustees took action by authorizing President Doney
to inform the General Education Board that the offer of the $17,500
annually for two years would be accepted and matched by friends of
thfc institution : also, that the wwk of raisins $100,000 for the comple
tion of Lausanne and Walter halls was proceeding, and that upon its we"erdaUyseverff
completion the contract for the raising of the additional $650,000 to lhe dlffeVence being that these lat
' complete lhe new million dollar endowment fund would be entered ter were killed, in fact, Chicago is
into.
; Steps were also taken to organize for the work of raising all thU
money. .''; ..
This consummation need not be doubted by friends of Old Wil
. lamctte and the people of Salem.
i . - It will take time perhaps two years after the completion of the
$100,000 fund. ,
But it will be done.
Watch old Willamette grow.
S
The students will carry away
mighty good news to their homes.
S
The old school will haTe 135 000
a year more than heretofore for expenses.
It will have two splendid new
buildings for next year's work.
It will have the beginning of a new
million dollar endowment fund to
keep up the standard for all time
that Is now set, and to improve ani
expand it.
In fact. Old Willamette is now on
the map in large letters, to stay for
ever and a. day.

President Doney, in his annual report to the trustees yesterday,
said a good many fine things and said them well. The following are
some of the high lights m very brief outline:
"We mention with gratitude the generous expectation from the
General Education Board and the two or three friends of the Univer
sity whose deliberate confidence in religious education leads them to
place faith in Willamette as the great center in the Northwest of
Christian scholarship,' character and citizenship. "We have dreamed,
planned and prayed for this day which appears now to be "breaking.
It has been in the heart of all; but only those who have tried to make
ends meet which were far apart can know the sheer joy that comes
when relief' appears..
.lf It is my judgment that both Lausanne and Wallershould be
completed for use by September loth. f
' The enrollment of students has been encouraging, though it is
to be regretted that we hate not had the facilities to care for them
as we should. In the College of Liberal Arts the enrollment is 3D9
as compared with 29o last year. The students of the Law School
number 42 in comparison with" 9 a year ago. The School of Music
has enrolled 73, an increase over last 3car of 22.
! 'tl am hopeful that the students will soon desire to accept some
lorm or self-government.
"Of the eight intercollegiate debates of the year, Willamette won
seven. : - r r-.-r; t
The General rducat ion Board has not generally given more than
SO per cent of endowment funds for institutions. It has departed
from this rule and offered 35 per cent of the proposed million dollar
endowment fund ; and it has gone further and offered an additional
$35,000 towards the salaries of teachers, because it is the conviction
of the managers of that great fifnd that Willamette University should
be made the outstanding rallying point for Christian education on the
raeific Coast, for several reasons. Among these are its splendid his
tory; its fine plant and campus; its ideal location, in a clean city of
size ueiow a great metropolis, antl the spirit of the great forces o
Methodism behind it. .
; 'f Hon. Itobert A. Booth and President Carl Gregg Doney arc the
outstanding. lignrrs deserving of the credit of directing the leaders
; of the General Education Board to this splendid recognition of Wil
lamette University as deservuig of the position of leadership to which
this great benefaction will raise and keep it. Thine men have leii
long at the task, and they have been unremitting in their splendid
endeavors. , .

Uric acid in meat excites the kid
neys, they become overworked; get
sluggish .ache, and feel like lumps
ot lead. The urine becomes cloudy:
the bladder is irritated, and you may
be obliged to seek relief two or three
times during the night. When the
kidneys dog you must help them
flush off the body s urinous waste
or you'll he a real sick person short
ly. At first you feel a dull misery
in the kidney region, you suffer from
backache, sick headache, dizziness,
stomach gets sour, tongue coated and
you feel rheumatic twinges when the
weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lota of water;
also get from any pharmacist four
ounces of Jad Salts; ' take a table
spoonful In a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid
ot grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia. and has been used for
generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to normal activ
ity .also to neutralize the acids in
urine, so it no longer is a source of
irritation, thus ending bladder weak
ness. Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot In
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink whicn everyone
should take now and then to keep
the kidneys clean and active. Drug
gists here say they sell lots of Jad
Salts to folks who believe in over
