W. G. Beatty, director of tU
extension work here, said yes
terday concerning the courses:
"There is an impression
abroad that these classes are for
teachers .only. As a matter of
fact, the courses hare been set
ip for the public at large and
are no more for teachers than for
men and women in other walks
of life. Years ago it was thought
that people past schol age could
not learn rapidly. Now we know
that he who stops learning does
so because he so wishes or be
cause he lr too indolent to read
and study.

The courses offered, by the
extension division are wide
enough In variety that many who
wish the stimulus of study is an
interesting field may enroll and
tfend pleasurable and profitable
hours in enlarging their knowl
edge and power of thought."
Each course offers two hours
of nniversity credit, however the
cours,e is open for the same fee

lines in the vicinity of Portland.
Salem's only concern is with
the electric division which will
henceforth be known as Portland

The new titles are expected to be
permanent.
