Corinthians 6:1S Reph lace the Resources The most important feature in connection with the pro posed linen mill is the necessity of providing a profitable crop for farmers as well as a manufacturing industry for the city. This is stressed by T. A. Livesley, one of the largest investors in the project, in a letter to the Oregon Voter as follows: Oregon Is only holding her balance by a little In her favor, from the natural resources which are going out at the rate of sixty-six million per annum, and what will be her condition when the lumber is exhausted? Is It not time that we looked for something else? You can recollect when Oregon produced 160,000 bales of hops, which was i big industry, that has largely been taken away from us by adverse legislation on, and millions of private and foreign capital have been confiscated In consequence, and the press came out and said loganberries would take the place of hops. Ttaey have come and gone. We bad the dehydrated vegetables, which were advocated very extensively by the press, and this has practically gone out of business, for lack of a market. But here Is a proposition that has stability, that Is protected by a tariff. We are Importing (100,000,000 of linen annually, and we are convinced that Oregon can grow a large quantity of very fine fibre flax. This industry will open up a business that will equal our lumber industry, and will be here after, our lumber Industry has passed. It is the necessity for developing a new agricultural and manufacturing industry, one for which the Willamette valley is peculiarly naturally adapted, one that will furnish a home market for farm products as well as home payrolls that has led far-sighted and public-spirited citizens to attempt to finance the proposed linen mill, to the end that the valley may eventually develop a great textile industry. No more important project has ever been before the state, especially important to the farmer, whose greatest need is a crop that can be raised at a profit with an assured market, yet we fuil to observe any support for the enterprise from our so-called state agricultural college, altho there is no better way that agriculture could be served. If there are any experimental flax farms, we have not heard of them, and there is no effort to aid in financing the project at Corvallis. "We are Tired" Symptomatic of the growing revolt among university students against the exultation and commercialization of college football, we quote the following frdm the Daily Northwestern of Northwestern University which predicts that "many, many years after the Senate has come to the support of the League of Nations", the students will rise up and say : We are tired! We aro tired of this everlasting blah-blah about a winning foot ball team. We are tired of. having a football coach who trains forty men and receives as largo a salary as four Instructors who teach oue particular subject to 600 students. We aro tired of having alumni come back and eay what a fine halfback there is in Podunk High school and can't we find a job for him. We are tired of this stadium bunk whereby 60.000 spectators watch twenty-two men or rattier employes battlo for supremacy. We are tired o't being told (hat Northwestorn needs more men. One of the best things about Willamette University is that it has no winning football team, and probably never will have, to demoralize its students, who have a serious purpose in life r.nd attend to secure an education and not to play games or witness spectacles. However the influence of commercialized college athletics h.j t-pread to the high schools, where its influence is much more pernicious as the pupils have neither the judgment nor perspective of college students, so the reaction is more injurious both to the student body and the athlete. IIIN DEN BURG INAUGURATED AS PRESIDENT (Continued from pajre one) nionwealth; to perform my duties conscientiously, and to deal justly with all."

Nenr F P 1 P 1 P F F Copyright 1931 George Matthew Adams My Ma trimonial Vacation by Violet Dare BKAItDIXG Till: MOV I didn't tell Virginia anything about my previous meeting with her broker -alter all, It would mean so much explaining, and I've found that it's better never to ex plain things if you can possibly get out of It. If I told her that I'd lied so that I wouldn't have to dine with her and Frank Harri son, and gone into the noose of a perfect stranger when he opened the door, rather than tell Prank that I hadn't told him the truth, matters would be so complicated! So I jiint said that the man had been awfully nice, and that he was going to carry her account a bit longer and was sure the stock would go up and she wouldn't lose It and wouldn't have to put any more money up In order to hold It. "That's wonderful!" she auid. "A pretty girl can do anything. Haven't I always told you that? She had, -ot course. I went to my jown room, feeling tired and dis couraged and rather cynical. V not a world there one's own mother urged one to go out and try to get the most out of men that way! I wished with all my heart Jut then that I'd gone to the Philippines with Jim; even if he did care more for another woman than he did for me, I wouldn't have had to do this sort of thlngl I dressed for the party that eve ning rather indifferently, not car ing much how I looked. Virginia come In just as I finished,' and made me tio my hair over again and put on another frock. "Sometimes you seem to take actual pleasure in looking just as dowdy as possible!" she rrtomied. "Don't you know that the very time when you look your worst te likely to be the one When your ap pearance counts most? ' I didn't say anything, it's im-j posnible to argue wiht Virginia. Of course, she thought she was giving me good advice. Hut for about the! millionth time in my life I wished! that I'd had a different kind of I mother. I wished that we had in Ameri ca, a custom that is frequently fol lowed abroad, where mothers some times change children for a year or so. An English girl I'd known at school had been sent, when she was twelve, to stay with a Swiss family in their home, and their daughter of about the ame age had come to. hers. Except for oc casional visits at home she had stayed there for three years; I She told me that when she fin ally went home to stay she met her parents on a new footing. She got acquulnted with them all over again. As a result, her mother was a companion to her, rather than a grown-up person whom she had to mind. She said that It was an ex perience she wouldn't have missed for the world. If only I'd had three years with another kind of woman, intend of Virginia! The party was going full tilt when I arrived. A girl's voice floated out to me as the butler opened the door; she wns singing a silly little song that hadn't any end, and through the doors leading to the living room could see a man playing the piano. I paused a mo ment in the doorway, looking the guests over before any of them saw me. Nobody that I knew, ex cept the host and I hardly knew him.- Just one more New York party! "Oh the - lovely lady!" The young man who'd been playing rushed over to me. "Welcome homo." Some gorgeous dance mu sic cams over the radio at that moment, and he put hia arm nround me. "Come on. wide-eyed child, let's dance we can be in troduced later." As It happened, we weren t, but that didn't matter. I felt quite sura that I'd never want to see him again. I didn't care for any of the women; they seemed to me to be decidedly deolassee. And the men didn't act as if they had much re spect for them, but of course they'll do that even at the nicest parties nowadays. Mr. Jordan drew me aside after that dance rnyniff that he wanted to have a talk with me. "Some of these people are leav ing before long, and then we'll real ly have a good time." he said. "Along about four o'lock the party ought to get well started." Oh. but I II have to go befors then," I protested. "Indeed you won't. Listen, my child you're not going to walk out on me after what I did fo: you this morning, are you?" I liked him less than ever then. A gentleman wouldn't have remind ed me of it, I told myself but then, a lady wouldn't have allow ed him to help her. I was as bad as he wag. "Not if you want me to stay," I told him. After all, I could Blip away when he didn't notice my going. The party got rowdier and rowd ier as It got smaller. I told myself that I simply must leave. And there was no chance. Mr. Jordan made it impossible for me to slip away. Finally I managed to slip away to tho telephone In the hall. I called a number that was blazoned across the top of the 'phone book. "I want to report a fire " I cried in anguished tones when I got It. "This is number ao-and-so Park Avenue gent the engines quick!" Ten minutes later three of them had arrived, siren whistles shriek ing. Everything was confusion. I grabbed the butler, made him get my coat, and left i nthe midst of the tumult without being noticed. Tomorrow A Strange Encounter, BRINGING UP FATHER By George McManus I TELL VOU I'M GTTIN' tlCK.
