OREGON FACULTY
Ail TO JTTE!
SCIENCE PARLEY
The following members of the Unl
Tersity of Oregon faculty have been
honored with invitation! to attend
the third annual Social Science con
ference which will be held June 14,
15, and 16, at the Clift hotel In San
Francisco: Ir, L. 15. Cressman, Dr,
Harold Crosland, Dr. Waldo Schu
macher, Dr. Dan Clark, Dr. Robert
Seashore, and Dr. Wayne L. Morse.
Thii conference Is held under the
auspices of the Social Science Re
search council of America and has
elected for Its central theme for this
year the subject, "How Far Are So
del Forces Controllable?"
The main addresses of the confer
ence will be given by A. L Kroeber,
ojitbropolocist; J. B. Canning, econo
mist; J. W. Thompson, historian; W
B. Munro, political scientist; L. M
Terman, psycholoftist; W. F. Osburn,
aocioloeist. After the main addresses,
which will be given the first day of
the conference, the individual dele
gates of the conference will join one
of the following round taoies: in'
fluencing Criminal Behavior," "Im
plementing the Pence Machinery,"
"Influencing Social Attitude of Propa
ganda and Education," "The Tax Sys
tem and Economic Mabiiization,
"Government by Dictatorship," "Xa
tionnlism.''
Dr. L. S. Cressmon of the TJnlver
slty of Oregon will serve as chairman
of a committee on social statistics.
This committee Is studying plans for
the development of a uniform system
for the recording of social statistics.
It is retognixed by research workers
in the field of sociology or crime that
accurate research investigation will
be handicapped until dnta can be gath
ered and recorded which will permit
of comparison. i
In addition to the meeting of the
Social Science conference there will
also be held at the same time- a
meeting of the Pacific Coast regional
committee of the social science re
search council. Dean Wayne L.
Morse of the school of law repre
sents the University of Oregon on
this committee, and Is chairman of
one of Its sub-committees on the or
ganisation of a Pacific Coast Institute
of law and the administration of
justice. Two years ago Dean Morse
proposed a plan for the establishment
of such an institute and nt the meet
ing of the Pacific Coast regional com
mittee last March his plan was
adopted as one of the projects' of the
social science council. Further, the
committee decided to hold the first
institute at Eugene, Oregon during
the summer of 1134, in connection
with the University of Oregon law
school summer session. It is the plan
of the commitee to hold an Institute
each year on the campus of one of the
universities on the Pacific coast.
Dean Morse's plan calls for an in
stitute program consisting of a ser
ies of round tables led by outstanding
members of the various social sciences
and by leaders of the bench and bar.
Speaking of the institute Dean Morse
stated, "1 have always felt that many
of the members of our profession
could profit by ntending such nn in
stitute and thereby acquainting them
selves with some of the most recent
finding of the social sciences. It seems
to me that such an institute would
promote a mutual exchange of points
of view and would undoubtedly inter
eat many of the leaders of the bar in
the contentions and contributions of
those disciplines which are closely
related to the law."
Beauty And The Beast!
Margorle Gay, 18 years old,, who
turns somersaults on the broad resin-
ed haunch of her horse Gypsy, with . . . -X
tha Al (i. Barnes circus, chooses for ia.-.- TfcB
ing behemoth of Holy Writ who ans- T'arO't.V
her nlavmate a mammoth blood-sweat- ....
wers to the name of Lotus. The huge f jfi
Hippopotamus ups me ecaies at iwo
tons. Is 60 years of age and left his
native haunts on the Nile river about
the time Bryan was first running for
president.
When not consuming bushels of car.
ft-ii iip.iisTfiTfniiyY anisii r t dLJ
rots, turnips, heads of cabbage and
bushels of other vegetables, Lotus
does a submarine act into the bottom
of the tank in the huge wagon that
transports him. In fact the amphibian
beast is as much at home in water as
on land.
It started by the daily visit of the
fair equestrienne to Lotus' cage arm
ed with delicacies in the way of honey-
coated popcorn and soon a fast bond
was struck. Once a day Lotus is given
little exercise around the menagerie
tent and in the back yard of the circus
and Mnrgorie is always on band to
accompany Lotus on his vagabond
wanderings. When he gives voice the
lions nro humiliated and the tigers
acknowledge defeat.
One of the world's largest traveling
zoos will be seen in Eugene on Wed
nesday, June 21, when the big show
arrives for performances at 2 and 8
p. m. There are cages of lions, tigers,
pumas, Ieopnrds, jaguars in addition ;
to an endless array of hay-eating I
antelopes, tapirs and gnus. The Al G.
Barnes circus has always excelled in
the excellency of its menagerie and
wild animal exhibit. A group of vlaak
vnrks are shown this season, trappers
spending more than three years in ef
fecting their capture.
Sunday is fast day in the menagerie
tent, and every occupant excepting the
elephnnts and hay-eating animals,
know when the day arrives. When
the week-end feeding hour four
o'clock in the afternoon approaches,
not one of the animals betrays the
feeling of enger anticipation on Sun
day which characterizes them all the
other six days. They understand in
stinctively there will be no meal. The
Sunday abstinence is deemed by the
trainers an aid to good health, as
copying to some extent the habit of
beasts in their native haunts, where
food is not obtainable every day.
There is little sickness in the mena
gerie. The animals are studied closely
and given assiduous attention if the
slightest indisposition is manifested.
Dr. Miller Says
Business Picks
Up Through East
Dr. J. M. Miller, local dentist who
went to the east coast a month ago,
has written back to Eugene friends
on his observations and comments
made regarding business conditions.
Dr. Miller is spending the summer in
Boston and other eastern cities while
Mrs. Miller and their son, Hugh, who
accompanied him cast have gone on to
Paris, the fnmily expecting to return
here early in the fall.
Beginning at Pendleton and Baker.
Dr. Miller says he inquired severnl
times a dny regarding business condi
tions as he progressed eastward. In
eastern Oregon little Improvement
was reported noticeable. "At Ontario
it was thought there wns a recent
pickup duo to the thirsty citizens of
Idaho just across the line coming
aeroBS for Oregon beer," he said.
All through Utah a slight improve-'
ment wns reported, but until the party
reached Omahn, Neb., they hear all
complaining of the depression. In
Omnhn, folks were sure business
showed ft decided improvement the
packing plants having put back several
thousnnd men, Dr, Miller said. "An
official of the Wabash railway said
their business had increased. At In
dianapolis, where we spent a week, my
brother In the -Western Union office
said their' business had increased 50
per cent in the last few months
and .that this was a barometer of
business since few telegrams were
sent in hard times. At Columbus, O.,
they were sure the depression wns
over becnuse business wns so improv
ed. At Philadelphia I talked with the
manager of the S. S. White Dental
Manufacturing company located th?re,
the Inrgest dental manufacturing firm
in tho world. He was s::ro their in
creased orders from dental houses all
over the country indicated ft return to
better business.
. "In New York City there was such
a mad rush on the sidewalks that I
was nfrnid to speak to anyone- lest I
be pushed Into the street and trampl
ed to death. They looked prosperous.
The general eastern tone Ib more opti
mistic than the west," Dr. Miller added.

IGHT
In a letter to the editors of The
Register-Guard, Llewellyn A. Banks
asks for a correction on a story rela
Uve to the foreclosure proceedings on
an orchard he owned near Medford.
This was an Associated Press report
and it gave $1000 as the cash pad
down by Banks to L. F. Belknap in
the -transaction.
Banks submits the following letter
from Belknap to prove that the figure
should have been $10,000 instead of
$1000 and that his dealings with Bel
knap at all times were on a thoroughly
honorable basis:
MEDFORD, June 13.
Mr. T A. Banks.
My Dear Mr. Banks:
In regard to the statement you send
me from the Eugene Register-Guard
will sny it is incorrect. Similar article
has been in the Mail-Tribune here. I
wrote them yesterday asking them to
make correction.
I never made statement to anyone
that I received only $1000. Whenever
asked about it I have stated it as it
was. that on June 20 I sold the or
chard property to you for $27,000, re
ceiving at that time a payment of
$10,000 and mortgage on the prop
erty for $17,000. with interest pay
able semi-annually. Later $1000 was
paid on mortgage. Last winter you of.
fered to turn the property beck to me
(if 1 so desired) which I considered
fair and honorable owing to financial
conditions. Later you did turn it back
to me but I found it necessary to fore
close on the mortgage. Yours truly,
L, F. BELKNAP.
(Editor's Note: The editors are
ery glnd to make th:s correction for
Mr. Banks. The error may have been
one of transmission on the tele
printer or it may havo been a typo
graphical mistake in this office. This
paper is alwnys anxious to have the
facts correct).

Tube company will resume operations

ployment, it was announced today.
Apple and Pear
Spraying is Due
Spraying for the second brood of
codling moth on npple trees should
be done in the next eight or ten
days, depending upon location, ac
cording to C. E. Stewart, county
horticultural inspector. In the foot
hills the spraying can be done later
than in the valley be snys.
ihe solution should be two and a
ialf gallons of limo and' sulphur to
200 gallons of water and four pounds
of lead arsenate. For pears the
lime and sulphur should not be so
strong, a gallon and a half being
enough.
The inspector cautions the growers
about spraying when the temperature
is above SO degrees. There should
be less sulphur when It is that hot.

The Secret of Youthful Skin
Nature, you know, puts certain
precious elements into every type
of skin. Youthful skin is rich in
them. But these elements arc grad
ually lost as the years go by.
Then skin grows tragically dull,
old-looking.
NO Wscientists bring good news:
You can check the loss of these
precious elements! For labora
tory tests show this soap actu'
ally contains precious elements
skin itself has and must have to
stay youthful.
Lux Toilet Soap, completely free
from harshness, readily soluble,
and containing such precious ele
ments, is an unquestionable aid in
keeping skin young-looking,
scientists declare.
Why don't you give your skin
this scientific care just as millions
of men and women are doing
everywhere? Start today!
