The old home of Jeffer son Davis in this city is to be repaired and preserved us a two-fold memorial of the Civil war and the World war. The itualul old structure Is to be uialutained in its original plan design in the midst of u small group of mansions of other duys which still statu! in the heart of the dowutowu district. Veterans of the World war have spousored the movement, which has as its object not ouly the preserva tion of the Davis home for the his torical value of it Civil wur asso ciations, but also to give Memphis post. No. 1, American Legion, a home that is to serve as a memorial to World-war dead. Jefferson Davis lived In Memphis two years during the reconstruction period, ills home was located at what is now Court avenue and Fourth street, almost within a stone's throw of Main street. The house was the center of the city's social activity during the brief period the ex president of the Con federacy and his family lived here. But when Davis moved away, the dwelling was permitted to fall into decay, ami as the business district pushed eastward from the river. It be came enmeshed In a crowded district of business structure. The Legion's appeal for funds has found ready response among the peo ple of Memphis and in the surround ing territory. The Legion asked for $30,000 with which to buy the prop erty and pay for its repair. The mujor portion of the sum has been paid in. and the tlrst two payments have been made on the purchase price of the property.

Oregon The 49th Yew Opens September 25, 1924 By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK Dean of Men, l 1.1 . er ty of Illinois. 0OOOCe;oOvOOX-O IT WAS nn Interesting crowd at the gnuie. let (hose who filled the bleachers to the topmost row and fel lowed the cheer leader In wild shouts were not more Interesting than were those outside the field trying to see the game without paying th! custom ary tribute to the gatekeeper. There were delivery boys perched on top f their wagons, middle-aged men in stepladdcrs, out-of-town sight sen standing on their curs. nd scores of the lociil riffraff swarming In the trees or b-oking through the fence In an .nileavnr to see the game without paying for it. Occasionally, mores the pity, on could detect a stray tu dent, lmpe unions, or frugal, or Im provident, whose face lighted up. as Jack caught a IlifhVulI fun!, ami once I caught sight of a high-browed In structor. stoop shouldered from the heavy books he was currying, crane his neck us he paused to satisfy his curiosity ns to why I'bil Armour a jumping Into the air unit waving hi anus so frantically. It was n popular sport, this trying to let something for nothing, but It has its dangers. A young hap w ho was balancing himself on the top of motorcycle, unable to restrain his tbuslasm when the "unip" pronounced "Slip" safe n second, lost bis eiiulllb rlum and In fulling pulled the step ladder frnm under one of the middle sged gentlemen and they both fell In the dirt. It has Its dangers, I nnd It docs not always win one's respect, whether It be the man looking through the fence at a ball game or the student felting a passing grade by copying from the neighbor's paper. There are various ways of looking through the fence. The man who Is always broke when It Is his turn to pay. the fellow who borrows and for gets to return the amount, the man who accept an office or an honor wlth aut assuming the accompanying re sponsibilities, the employee who. loafs m his Job, are all watching the game through the fence, "It is easy for the man to talk," you jay, "who has the money to get Into the game; but how about the fellow who 1 broke?" An old neighbor of mine never saw a baseball game nor held office, yet he lived an honorable happy life nnd died resteeted. One can walk to Savoy or stay at home ind rend o, Henry or work In ttl garden. It Is more honorable not to lee any of these games of life at ali than to see them through the fence. Where does the annual crop of j flies come from Is a question fre quently asked of the Bureau of Entomology, I'nlted States Depart ment of Agriculture. The prevail ing opinion that the house fly lives through the winter as an adult, hid ng In cracks and crevice of build Ings. appears to he erroneous I n der out door conditions house Hi.q are killed during the first really MM nights - that Is, when the t in -perature falls to about It degree or 10 decrees F. In rooms and similar places protected from wind and partially heated during the win ter flies have been kept alive 1 In cages for long .periods; but. they never lived through the entire win ter There Is no reliable evlden-e whatever that adult house file emerging during October and Novem ber pass the winter and are able to deposit their egg the following spring, although they may continue active In heated buildings until near ly the end of January. On the other band, there la evidence that the house flies pass the winter as larvae i and pupae, and that iey sometimes breed continuously throughout the winter. In experiments at both Dallas, Texas, and Itethesda, Md., house flies have been found emerg ing during April from heavily In fested manure heaps which had been set out and covered with cages dur ing the preredlng autumn In the southern state, during warm per iod in midwinter, house He may emerge and become somewhat trou blesome; they frequently lay eKK on warm days. The second way In which the house fly may pass the winter Is by contin uous breeding. House files congre gate In heated rooms with the ap proach of the winter season. If ho food or breeding materials are pres ent they eventually die. However, where they have acces to both food and suitable gubstnares for egg lay ing they will continue breeding Just as they do outdoor during the sum mer. Even In very cold climates there are undoubtedly many places, especially in cltlis. where house flies would have opportunity to pas the winter in this manner. RRIGON NEWS ITEMS II) N.
