In 1920 the number' had grown to 450, and this year the total is 640. In ten years' the college of liberal arts has multiplied more than 300 per cent ' ! : And it is clear that another building is needed, and Dr. Doney said: "It appears to me that it should be one devoted especially to the natural; sciences, releasing the present science building for needed class rooms. j President Doney also said that "a library building is be coming more-and more necessary." He said also that it is probable that a dormitory for boys would prove helpful in directing their conduct and creating a proper unity of spirit ; and it should also be a source of small profit financially. f Dr. Doney also recommended an organized health service for the institution, a matter that is now in negotiation, and he recommended two additions to the faculty, to assist in the department of biology and in the teaching of history; also he recommended some salary increases, in which connection he said: , : 1 ' , "The increases to salaries is just and wise. ; We have a faculty which in scholastic equip- . . , ment and Reaching! ability tanks iththe besjtrj"" : several of the professors are distinctly excep - K tionalnd in moral quality are vastly above, the average, i They work hard, work cheerfully and - . - are good to work wfth. It would be a heavy! losi to Willamette were some of them tempted be- "" yond their powers of resistance to go to other I : institutions. To be free from financial worries, !' to be able to buy books, to have a reserve. for ; , health and old age are assets to a teacher which i make him of greater value to his school.' 1 The : salary increases for next year over this year will amount io about; $10,000. i " f The business secretary showed in his report' that all bills are paid, and that there is a small surplus. s; j 1 "I : Willamette university is on the way towards greater usefulness and a higher grade of work in all departments, and towards becoming a greater institution in the number of students j 1 . And it is justifying; tlie great sacrifices of its founders . and the high hopes of its friends of later years, -l OUR TWO . The company to own the second linen mill for Salem, "The Oregon Linen Mills Inc." is on its way towards incorpor ation and organization 1! V ! I ! ' 'With sufficient of the stock subscribed to justify mak ing plans and ordering the machinery.' ; j.i r . ; There are: three shipments of machinery for our first linen mill.'the Miles plant, on the ocean, and the fourth and last shipment is either on the way or about1 ready to start and. the first shipment is either there or due in1 Vancouver, B. on its way .here. !f The machinery shipments are two months later than promised; and the beginning of operations will have to be dated around September first instead of July first, as; planned.

Thousands of -young men and women are this month receiving diplomas ..from high schools and colleges. These diplomas are or should be testimonials of educational effort and accomplishments.

The world owes no one a. living. . It should however encourage opportunity for every one to earn a live lihood. - --. The first requisite of education is respect for consistent, persistent labor at something really worth while. If educated people would not work education would soon become an intol erable evil. No country can long sustain in idleness more than a small percentage of its numbers. Most young people recognize work as essential to their well-being arid happiness and the most perplexing problem for them is how to combine most satisfactorily labor and education. One of the most serious economic problems of today is the over supply of so-called "white collar" labor. There are too many young men who are willing to sacrifice personal income and real service for the "gentleman's job." .Work does not, of course, mean manual labor only. It may include literary, professional, commercial or industrial effort and of this list the industrial is of basic importance. ; t v It is not enough for our schools and colleges, to send forth young -people possessed with text book knowledge only.- It is of equal importance that they go out into life's competitions with deep appreciation of the honor,' dignity and enduring values of labor. ; - HOME OWNERSHIP The present year sees rapid progress in building oper ations. Six billion dollars a year is the present pace. And forty-five per cent of this construction is in homes. ( More Americans, it is said; are now owning their homes than in any previous year. ' ; ' . : 1 ; The movement to suburban locations is accountable in part for this condition. Good roads, the auto and electric lines of travel encourage rural homes. A growing 'desire for better standards of living than those in small or crowded quarters in cities is also a contributing factor. To own, rather than rent; to possess a real home is a prime requisite of high quality citizenship. To live amidst the beauties and comforts of one's own srarden. is ample room for recreation This movement for home the state and nation. Through this ownership the owner becomes a tangible part of the governmental unit. Every home built and occupied creates new values for the whole community and through it the whole range of social and economic conditions is improved. , i Why the Southern Pacific Railroad maintains1 wood sur face between her tracks on an otherwise attractive street of Salem is .current query.- Will some one answer? p" For annual growth Oregon the ribbon.

You have struck paregoric." j A member of the house of com mons got up in a debate and said that Winston Churchill , was evi dently suffering from beri-beri; as a sign of that disease was a swol len head. Afterwards Churchill corrected the member,! and said that swollen feet, not head, were the sign. : ! ii : i i ,. ; i i- , That,. makes no ' differen.ee." was the artful reply.

Somebody, called upon him to say a few words, but he, hung back and stammered and bashfully, declined.; ilia friends kept . at him and finally his wife said: 'Get up and say something to them, George.

I "George hesitated a moment, rose to his feet, looked around vainly for some means of escape, and thn. putting his hand oh bis bride's ehoulder. blurted out: 'This thing has been Imposed on me." r , In search of a horse, nervous Frenchman went a rather to a deal er and explained his wants; "Yes. sir, certainly," said the latter blandly. "I have Just the animal you want." He led the prospective customer through his stable and finally came to a halt beside a small but wirey animal, which rolled its eyes in an ominoua way. ! "There you are, sirj This is a fine horse, either to drive or ride. As sound as a nut, and goes ten miles without stopping. "But. m'sieur."

Mandy, the negro laundress, picked up a magazine and began to turn over the pages aimlessly. Then Bhe seemed to be fascinated by one of the pictures. "Who dat woman, Miss Blank?' she inquired. ' ! "That's Queen Elizabeth. Man dy' said Miss Blank. U Mandy seemed to be stricken dumb. Finally she burst forth breathlessly: ( f ', "Am dat de queen, MIse Blank? My land, what a homely woman!

State and private forestry interests are also said to be cooperating in financing the project.- Air patrol has proved its value as an auxiliary of other methods of forest protection, according 'to foresters and timebermen, and they approve its reestablishment by the federal government for the protection of our forested areas.
