Registration figures at the Oregon Agricultural college always are available to those de siring them, and the scholarship standards for admission o the col lege, being on a jar with leading in stitutions ot the country, are hard ly a proper subject for attack, said E. B. Lemon, registrar of the col lege, today, in answering allega tions which are attributed to Dr. James H. Gllbe;1.. head of the de partment of economics at the Uni versity of Oregon. In addressing an alumi.l meet ing at the university Homecoming in Eugcn- November 11, Dr. Otl bert Is reported. In a news story appearing in ti.e Salen Capital Journal ot December 14, to have spoken disparlngly of the entrance requirements at the college and the students entering from other states. - "The scholarship required for matriculation in the college," said Mr. Lemon, "Is the same as that Imposed b the University of Ncb braska, the University of Minnesota, Purdue University, Iowa State col lege, at Ames, the Unive.lty of Kansas, Kansas Statu college and various other institutions of higher education. They are excellent com pany for the colleg." It Is further reported that Dr. Gilbert, in his address, attributed to President Kerr the statement that students from outside the state "Im posed no extra charge on the tax payers since the fun increment of cost due to their presence is met by the non-resident tuition fee that they pay."

Is ab surd. In the official biennial report of the college for 1925-26, it is shown that the cost per student at the college for opeiatlon and main tenance from 1922 to 1928 ranged from $278 to $348, end that. Includ ing expenditures for building con struction and other capital Invest ment, tiie total to. the years men tioned ranged from $362 to $381. The fallacy ot Dr. Gilbert's state ment Is apparent, since the non resident tuition charge is 5150. 7 YEAR OLD BOY OFF ON LONG TRIP Portland, Ore., Dec. 21. (7PV Seven-year-old Paul Clark. Salem, struck out on a Ion" trip alone last night. He expects to be with his grandparents In Ames, Iowa, for Christmas. Mrs. W. R. Hamilton.

TOY DONATIONS FOR RELIEF WORK (Continued from Put 1) temple, but the committee will glad ly call for toy donations, as well as other kinds of donations If the donors will telephone 17, and leave their name and address. The Christmas Cheer movement fund took a gratifying leap Tuesday with contributions totalling $313.92 turned In between Monday and Tuesday noons. The response of workers In state departments and the fine effort of the Klwanls club brought in the larger part of this sum. "We can use every bit of this money for relief work to supply the necessities of life such as fuel, food and clothing to deserving families, but we are not going to forget that Santa CI ..us needs toys for every boy and girl that comes to our Cliristmas tree," Robert Cole, chair man of the Elks' welfare committee said following a special committee meeting last night. "We hope the public will donate many of the toys that Santa Clans will hand out Christmas eve at the tree."

COUNCIL HOLDS UP PURCHASE OF For the reason that members of the lire and water committee of the city council want to give further time for investigation of the merits ot various kinds of pumpers tor the fire department the question of ac cepting a bid on the new 1000-gal-lon pumper will not be taken up at the counsil meeting tonight, me meeting Is called especially for final action on the 1928 budget, but any other business may be taken up by vote of the council at the meeting of last Monday night. Alderman Dancy, chairman oi tne fire and water committee, made the motion that other business might be taken up, having In mind the ac ceptance of one of the bids received Monday night. It nas developed, however, that further time Is needed for consideration. A report is to be received from Seattle on the Mack pumper, manufactured by the Mack Truck corr -ny. The lowest bid Monday night was on this machine, but the purchase Is not to be made alone on a basis oi tne size oi me bids. Other bids were received on the Seagraves, the Ahrens-Fox which Is now handled by the A. G. Long company, and the American-La France, which Is being sola oy me Howard -Cooper corporation.

Cases Garters Underwear Suspenders Pajamas Handkerchiefs Palmetto Brushes Belts Slippers Lounging Robes ail STATE STREET HOLLY TREE IS FULL OF BERRIES IN BANK LOBBY One of the worth- wh' : sights this year is - holly tree which has been placed In the lobby of th Ladd Se Bush bank. Literally covered with red berries, It has a diameter of nine feet. Is about 12 t high and extreme'" symmetrical in shape. Scores of people have viewed the tree, commented on its beauty, and speculated how it lives In a cement tub, planted in gravel Henry Crawford of the bank di vulged the secret today when he told the story ot the tree which came from his yard at 1340 Court street. The tree, after attaining a good growth, was cut down by the frost In 1919. In 1920 he but the tree to the stump and since then has been coddling It and caring for it, pruning it and fertilizing it with care, until it has attained its pres ent bauty. The pruning, he stated, is responsible for t.ie appearance oi thi wilderness of berries. Tho tree this yeai attained a size too large for where It stands, and he cut It off again to the stump and had It placed in the tub. "A new tree will grow out from the stump, and for another seven or eight years I will have the fun of taking cair of it and developing It to mr wishes." he said. Mr. and Mrs. O. O.
