Oregon has been noted and regula tions were listed by tho board to guard a?:aini-t a spicf.d of the dls- ase, which Is held to be largely preventable.

McMahau, Albany atl;i ney aud representative from Linn county in the last session of the legislature, woe a visitor around the legislative chambers yester day afternoon. W. J. Herwlg, state supcria tendeut of the Oregon Anti-Saloon league, put In his appearance la the lobby yesterday and will spend most of his time here dur ing the session in the interest oi legislation proposed by the pro hiuition forces. Earl Simmons, ngene automo bile man and formerly of Salem, was a visitor at the capitol yester day afternoon. Culling upon congress not to pass the migratory bird refuge measure now pending, a houie joint memorial resolution to the federal lawmakers is scheduled for introduction in the house Tuesday afternoon by lvimwood, Multnc mati. One of the principal pre visions of the bill is that an an nual hunting license fee shall be levied by the federal government on all portions hunting migratory birde. The joint resolution poiur.a out that enactment of the mea lire would interfere and impo-it similar state measures already in force or contemplated. House bill No. u, introduced by Hazlctt, Hood Itiver, asks for m appropriation of $12,000 annual ly for maintenance support ot tne Hood Hivcr agricultural experi ment station. None ot the mouoy would ')e used (or purchase ot land or construction work unUr provisions of the measure. Two girls nnu one boy bavoj been appointed pages In the bouse of representatives, opal riosxind, a high school girl of Stanficld, and Huth iUniie of Salem are the girls. Charles M. Charlton of Red mond is the lo e boy. Some say it's about Immigra tion. Others think it pertains to Scandinavian rum runuers. There are those who think it's about re ligion. Chief Clerk John P. Hunt says it's a newspaper clipping possibly on tbe subject of foreign languages. Senator Joseph, to whose committee on foreign rela tions it was referred, gives up. The letter In which it was sent to the senate was addressed in Englleu and bore a Norwegian or Swedish post m a lie, but the document Itself Is In some kind oi foreign tan euaec. In the absence of former Senator John Gill it remains un read. Heading Clerk Hardesty with impunity let it slide by. H waa placed iu the category ot com munications. Sneaking about John P. Hun the senate s chief clerk enjoys the reputation ot being a past mayor of Wooilburn, !:' home town. But he never was mayor says be al ways refused it. A few months ago the Salem Cherrians went on a Junket to Woodburn and Johu mado them a speech. A Salem newspaperman assumed he was the mayor, and he was so branded In both Salem and Portland pa pers. The state eenace looks Ilk school room with two of the direc tors visiting the school. Every member and employe is smooth shaven except "Senator Taylor and Canfield McDonald, assistant door keeper. Baa Wagner everybody knows him has been appointed nies er from the 'louse to tbe stuc printer. Other messengers named yesterday are: Senate to printer. Berald J. Meindl; senate to hoove, Lillian Clarkeun; bouse to senate, Vern Drager. Homer Foster, v?ho often f igur?: In the headlines of S. O. S., of fi cial publication of state depart ment employes, again has char; of the distribution of supplies to members of the legielature. H bas done this for nine sessions, Speaking of Homer Foster, men ttoned above, Colonel Mercer, eran serjeant-at-arms ot the ren ate, said: "He's been one ot m; kids ever clnce he was that high, The colonel struck an imaginary line on Homer's chest to ehow jun how high he was when they first met in the Oregon legislature. Lee Hong, Portland Chinese who has cleaned up a sisable for tune for himself by reason of tb man Jong craze that has swept over the country during the pst three or four years, was a Tleitjr In the legislative halls today. Lee laud representative of a riirr coil- rolling sale and distribution of! U of the niah jong sets ImporteJ, nto thiti country from China. I Senator Peter Zimmerman ot Yamhill county is maintaining the reputation he voi. lust session. He arrives at his desk every morning before daylight with the ad v vice guard of the janitorial brigade. President Moser, of the senate. heard the governor's message wice. The second time he was in bed, but Sam Kozer was running radio in the apartment just above him. Moser says Kozer hps of an Idea of entertain ment. Pre-cancelled stamps are to bo used for mailing out copies ot bills at this session ot the legislature. This is designed to prevent the promiscuous distribution ot bills. The demand for them is unprecedented. W. E. Lamb, former official hangman at the state penitentiary i. employed as watchman about the senate chamber. For years he served in the army and the Philip pines constabulary. Ed Clanton, former superintend cnt of hatcheries for the state fish iind game commission, was promi nent among the lobby arrivals to day. Senator Fred Fisk does a daily dozen every morning, according to his colleague, Jack Magladry. Not withstanding Fred s rotundity. Jack says he has developed into a real contortionist. Fisk runs close race with Bill Strayer toe being the most bald-headed mem ber of the eenate. Inauguration of a program of stronger legislative support ot the Oregon Normal school, and the extension of the normal system to Include other schools when the present institution has been placed on a firm basis will be the recommendation of Senator Bruce Dennis, who today announced that he is working upon a bill to in crease the financial support of the present school and lay the founda tion for a comprehensive normal school policy on the part of the state. 1 'Oregon has been criminally negligent In the matter ot normal schools," said Senator Dennis, ana it is nigh time we were recognizing In a substantial way the need for better and more schools of this kind. There is yet a large percentage of people in the rural sections and smaller towns ot Oregon who do not have the opportunity of continuing their education on through col leges and universities. Their education Is received through the common schools and the high schools, and it is our duty to pro vide suitable Institutions for training the teachers who carry on this great work. "To tho extent of Its resources the normal school at Monmouth Is doing wonderful work along this line, but it is handicapped by lack of finances. 'I am just as anxious as any-1 one to keep taxes down and to economize in every way possible and I would not at this time favor any great Increase in state ex penditures for educational pur poses. But I do feel that too much stress is being laid upon our state university and state college, to tbe neglect ot the normal school, and I wilt propose that part of the financial support now being provided for the university and the college be diverted to the up building of the normal school." Senator Dennis said that he was not prepared at this time to say that be will advocate the Immedi ate "establishment of normal schools in other parts of the state. "I am more inclined to tbe be lief that the present normal school should be enlarged and equipped to put it on a plane with the best Institutions of its kind in the country before we Btart in to locate and build others," he said. Senator Dennis's plans include a building program at Monmouth to Include plenty of modern class and dormitory buildings, and laboratory and other equipment that is now lacking. The unreliability of the "audit' of t-ute loans used by Governor 1'iene and fjin.er Stale Treasurer Alye.fc in the late campaign wiw again indicated at a mecilng of the stat; land board yesterday. On a tract of 200 acres in Klamath county on which the stato had loan ed $1000. J. V. Starrett, who wa used by Tierce und Myers ns an investigator, reported "isolated and worthless now. Total loss." The special Investigating committee ap pointed in Klamath county by the governor just before the election appraifccd the place at $400. Yet within 30 days after the election it sold for $1000. The state loses only the Interest. Starrett estimated that the state would lose $75,000 In Wallowa county. A real estate man has re cently written the land board ask ing for a list of the places to be sold, stating that In his opinion the state will lose nothing in that ccunty. FIGHT LOOMS ON ROAD AND AUTO BILLS (Continued from Page One) SENATE BILLS Senator Eddy has introduced a bill designed to make more prac tical the course of study In high schools and to place restrictions on the privilege of students to elect their courses of study. i The bill provides that the obligatory studies "shall include United States history; the history and leading principles of Amer ican constitutional law in simple form; American literature; the English language. Including grammar, composition, rhetoric, spelling and punctuation; pen manship; bookkeeping; practical operations in arithmetic. No student would "be permitted to elect optional studies to the extent of preventing thorough training In required studies." The bill is similar to one In troduced by Eddy at the 1923 session, but which was defeated. S. B. 8, Eddy Making certain high school studies obligatory. S. B. 9, Eddy To remove pro tection from silver grey squirrels. S. B. 10, Eddy Providing for destruction ot animals or birde, now under protection of the law. when they are held a nuisance. S. B. 11, Eddy Relieving own er or tenant of real property of necessity of obtaining license to kill beamer on premises, and re moving Douglas county from in hlbition against trapping. Reduce Your Fat Without Dieting Tears ago the formula for fut reduction was "diet" "exercise.' Todny It Is "Take Marmola Pre scrlptlon Tablets." Frie is tell friendsthese friends tell others.

Adv. various bills appears to have the upper hand at this writing. Its most formidable opposition will come from the governor's special committee on roads and highways and automobile matters in general, which caused 10 of Its bills to be Introduced In the house late yesterday. The manner In which they were Introduced cave to the unltiated their first Inklinr of the scrap that hovers in the off ing. Representative Ford, chair man of the house committee on roads and highways, presented the bills with the statement that that committee wished it under stood that it was not to be consid ered as favoring the proposals. Opposition KtrcsM'd His announcement conveyed clearly that impression that the committee was not willing to place its sanction upon ull ot the pro posals, but there were apparently others in the house who desired that there be absolutely no misun derstanding as to the position of the committee on these bills. Rep resentative l'eirce took the floor and asked that it be made per fectly clear that the measures recommended by the governor's committee were being introduced by the hruse committee solely to place them In a position where they could be referred to the roads and highways committee for con sideration In their regular order. Speaker Ilurdick then proceeded to make complely clear by r statement the position of the house committee. The bills went to first reading, but the reading clerk neglc-'ted to mention that the billt, were thoe of the governor's coin mltteo and not those of tho house committee, and he was correct ed. Lki'iisc Tliemk'd Differ In minor mat to is of road and affic regulation the two factions ppear to be pretty closely In ac- ord, but on the question of re vision of the motor law there Is bound to be a clash. The motor association program here calls foi st raight reduction of 40 per cent on tho licenses for nil cars, meet- ng the deficit thus saddled upon he road fund by increasing the gasoline tax two cents, but making o attempt to provide lower licence fees for second hand and old car ban those for new machines. The governor's committee reccg- Izes no need for reduction of the licensee on new cars, but reconv nends reductions of 10 per cent on cars five, sis and seven yearn Id, 25 per cent on machines eight ine and ten years old. and 50 per ent on all cars more than 10 years old. No provision Is mad this proposal to replace the money taken from the fund neces sary to retriro and pay the Interest on the ouUtandng highway bonds. It also Invites opposition in that H disregards tho fundament:.: Friend Saved Mrs. Wilhelmy "Overwork, worry, no appetite, no sleep, I looked like a corpse," says Mrs. Mary Wilhelmy ot St. Paul, Minn., "and to add to my troubles my physician advised an operation. A friend, however, asked me to try Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound. I did ho, and you should see the im provement. I eat well, sleep well have gained In weight and .strength and feel fine." That is what Lydia E. Pinkham'e Vege table Compound did for Mrs. Wil helmy, and It will do ae much for any suffering woman. Adv. The Best None Too Good "After many years of stomach suffering I hae at last found medicine for that trouble. But believe me it was a timely find. I couldn t have lasted a great whll longer. My etomach would bloa ith gas like a barrel and the colics got to be awful. Medicine ldn't help much until I got hold f Mayrs Wonderful Remedy, which did the trick. I am telling everyone about It." It is a sim ple, harmletsa preparation that re moves the catarrhal mucus from the Intestinal tract and allay the inflammation which cause practically all stomach, liver an inteetinal ailments, including np pendicitie. One dose will convince or money refunded. J. C, Perry, D. J. Fry and druggiete every where. Adv. HOUSE BILLS H.
