the defenses of libery are the priri

education. No Renernlion can forget
that universal niirt free public edura

happiness. In Oregon that happiness
and security is now nienneed by a rev

kill and then to move the vestiges of
the higher schools and colleges.
The proposition is not merely a
thrent against communities. Jt is an
act of war ngaiiiHt the state of Ore
gon: 1 Because the enemies of alt
schools, the enemies of democracy and
the enemies of government have
aligned themselves with the propon
ents of that measure, and
2 Because the acknowledged effect
of the simple proposition has been to
demoralize teaching staffs and stud
ent bodies, and
3 Because the organized move to
effect the measure has thrown the
state into uproar. Into quarrelings,
Into factional and sectional disputes,
Into reprisals and threats of reprisals,
and

It is a matter of record that physi

'As a rule It is the technical school ;

In Oregon, now, who Is there who
would emasculate the great college at

sciences, a school that has endeared ,

SPEE D Another Advantage
of GAS Over Other Fuels
The modern housewife de
mands SPEED in cooking be
cause she is cooking 3 times
a day or 1095 times a year.
No heating appliance has yet
been devised that will pro
duce heat as quickly as those
dependable little blue flames
of gas and QUICK HEAT
cuts down your Fuel Bill.
A GAS RANGE in your kitchen will save you
from 10 to 40 minutes? in the preparation of an
average meal. So, when you cook with GAS you
are saving, many, many hours of kitchen work.
For instance, recent laboratory tests prove that
with a GAS range the oven is ready to bake a
cake in about one-third the time of o&er cook
ing appliances.
