Other leading topics will be iu the fields of advertising, editor ial problems, and circulation. To lead off on the subject of qual ity printing ami start the discussion of the market for the highest gradu of work, a market In which the re wards to the printer are declared to be more adequate than in any other branch, the program committee has obtained John Henry rvasii of Han Francisco, who is declared by Dean Kric W. Allen of the school of jour nalism to be one of the three or four most successful quality printers in the United Stntes. Mr. Nash's promise to come was received today, after the committee had virtually given up ho;e of obtaining him. - An Interesting Speaker.' "Mr. Nash has inoro interesting things to miy about printing than any other man 1 ever met,'' declares Dean Allen, "Hy i:h fellow printers of Cali fornia he as regarded as absolutely in a class by .himself. He is, so far us J know, the only printer who ha ever been granted an honorary degree for the perfection and effectiveness of his work. Mr, Nush was recently hou ored In this way by Mills college. "Mr. Nush's shop ia a little one man affair. It is no bigger than the ordinary store room, used' by Hi smallest country weekly. Here he works wiUi his own bands without any large supporting organization, yt he has made his name known throughout the world wherever experts discuss the work of great printers, Guten berg, Jenson, K.zcvir, C'axton aud Jobo of Spires. Loves Hia Work. "This printer, who is bringing hon or to the west by his workmanship, labors for the love of the work, out lie is in no sense an impractical dreamer. Judged even by commercial standards, his little shop is a greater money maker than many a great plaut with 20 times the equipment. Mr. Nah bus a vault iu his shop and in this he as collected a 'printer's work ing library' as he calls it, consisting of copies of famous books, example of the finest printing the wor.d cuu taioB, and books about the technique aud history of print 1113. He often pays $800. to 1500 for a single volume, for such books are rare and are eag erly competed for by collectors, lie himself does not look ut this as u museum tar an exhibition collection; it is purt of his working equipment, aud upou his knowledge uf the best work 01 the past he ban built up his com mercial success. He has up to this time uaid out over $10,000 tor work ing specimens, every cent of which he declares was. earned In his shop, and evory book of which will prove in turn .a profitable. Investment, Is No Faddist. . "Mr. Nash has never Jiad any spe cial type cut for himself, nor auy spe cial borders or ornaments. He de clares he la a printer, not a fuddist, and he will use uo typo that caiiuut bo bought by anybody ou the opi-n market from ttie regular founders. .Mr. Nash makes occasional trips to Kurope, where he spends his time among the bigii-grade pnutshops of Antwerp, Leipzig, l'aris and Venice at)d in libraries where famous old models are stored. He sometimes buy typo in Kurope, but only that avail able to any printer. "Mr. JSutUi has promised to bring to Eugene to show to the Oregon pub hsiiers some of the choicest pieces from his collection, examples of printing, some of them, that a printer does not ordinarily .get a chance to seo at less coat thnn a trip to the New Vork library or the Kritidi mu seum in Loudon.

Hogged Fuel Found To Reduce Expense If the Kugene school board is con sidered use of "hogged fuel" as n means .of cutting down heating ex pense, the method Is worth while in vestigating, declares Itichard Hhepard, manager of the Terminal hotel. Mr. Bhepard recently changed the heating system for his hotel to "hogged fuel" and already reports an important saving as a result. ' "Moat people think that the fur nace must be replaced for th pur pose," says Mr. Hhepnrd. "On the contrary, but few changes ure nece fftry, including the installation of a new patented feeding system, hy which the fuel is carried automatical, ly through the grate. Any persons in terested in this system are welcomed to InspPctVnir furnace. From the sav ing made in the few weeks we have had it, I'm sure hogged fuel will be a success.". ' 1 " Fred E.
