Doney, president ot Willamette university, occupied the pulpit of the First Methodist church Sunday morning, where he delivered a powerful sermon on the need of Christian higher edu cation. He pictured all the unrest of the world today, and tnen sum med It up by saying that it. is all the product of 'tducation." Edu cation, however, he showed to be not an evil In creating an atmos phere of unrest, but a means of advancement. "In the 6000 years up to the middle of the 19th century' he said, "there had been only nine really outstanding, major inven tions. In the 75 years since that time, there have been almost 60, or six times as many as in all the ages preceding. Education delves Into the causes of things and finds ways to produce results that the savage never even dreamed of. There ' Are no labor troubles, no capital-and-labor problems, no so cial crises with the savage people who do not progress or care." ; That education however, should be on the right track morally, he held to be the great essential. To learn how to be a great assassin, a great ' destroyer In any line of thought or life, to be .a tremen dously outstanding rogue, he said, Is education gone wrong and ut terly perverted. "Education needs the balance of Christian Ideals, of helpfulness and unselfishness and hope,,- to hake its discoveries a benefit Jn-. stead of a curse to humanity." A brief presentation of the Wil lamette Forward Moement, the campaign jtox an additional en- dpwment to insure the (perpetu tlon of the university, was given. Subscriptions amounting to about $750,000 have been secured, lea v. log a little more than $500, ooq yet to sign up. The campaign Is to close December 20 , and all pledges are made conditional on securing the full amount. Japanese Oil Industry Suffers from Competition TOKIO Nov. 20. The oil in dustry In Japan, which made noticeable .development under the protective policy of the gov ernment, is suffering greatly from the competition of foreign oils. Under ordinary circumstances the demand for oil revives at this time of the year and the price Shows a rise, but this year there has been no particular demand. The consequence has been that the . stock continues to Increase and the quotations to fall instead of rising. ' V , WHY STAY FAT? YOU CAN REDUCE .
