Steel knives may be cleaned by washing the blades in clean water, then scouring with sand-soap and raw potatoes. When all the i tains are removed they may be rinsed in warm water. Bone handles are wiped with a damp cloth as they will crack if put into water. Some Oregon farmers find that clipping and filing away good farm pointers, hints on repairing machin ery, suggestions that will come in handy during the year's work is time and effort well spent rinsed until free of all soap and other alkalies used in washing, contact with the bluing will cause rust spots on the clothes.

This Is due to the fact that the present building was erected lu 1008, when enrollment was but 300 students, and becau&o since that time tho Income of the university has never been such that funds could be found fur u new and larger structure.

' "He ain't at all prominent, nor en titled to prominence," indignantly re plied the genuine Marbleheader. "That man hao lived in Marblehead only sixty-seven years. He's a 'foreigner' born in Salem."

The editor of The Times called at the Staats domicile Monday and was told that Doc Elwood promised that when the onions were blooming green and snowballs were to be found only on Mt.

As far as the onion feautre goes, we believe Doc knows his and will look for our worthy father of Maupin to hold his horses until spring come,-.. x Bill Williams is fast developing into a real fancy fox raiser.

Maupin';- High school basketball team journeyed to Madras last Sat urday and took on the team repre senting the school of that town. Maupin came out the small end, of the horn. The boys are submitting no alibis, but all know that working on a '.mall floor and under a low ceiling has its handicaps, especially when pitted against a team which plays on a large floor and under a high roof. We believe Maupin's team the best in thb section and that will be shown when Madras' team comes here for the return game. x Patrons of tho Kramer motion picture show were grievously disa- pointed on Sunday evening when they found there wa to be no show on that date. Joe had ordered a special feature film but owing to some' unforseen circumsance the picture failed to show up until Monday, which . was too late for a Sunday showing. Better next Sun day, we hope. When we clo e our doors each afternoon at 6 o'clock it does not mean that we are thru for the day. We have much to do, and often work "late into the night. For a complete record of the bank's business must be taken every day. We must be ready at any time for al call from the bank examiner. When an examiner comes, he makes a very thoro and careful study. He counts our cash and figures how much money we have on deposit in banks in larger cities. He checks up our lists of loans and discount". He studiee the Dookkeepers work to detect errors. Every detail of our business is carefully and intensely examined. He wants to know why we have done this or that. What securities we have made for our loans. Sometimes he insists that we call notes, or forbids up to extend notes or additional money.' And so you see, we are carefully controlled by the state. Many times when we feel justified in making a loan, we know the examiner would not approve. Some people might suppose this strict super vision needless But we are glad of it. We want the examiner to check up carefully in our work, and to help up maintain always an institution which may provide complete safety for it; depositors' funds and a conservative efficient management for those who de pend on u:.

INCREASE IN STUDENT LQAQ NOW FAR AHEAD OF INCOME FROM STATE FOR UHIVERS1TY Portland, Or. Amazement that the j University ot Oregon could still funo tlon efficiently on an income that has fallen far short oi the rapidly increas ing enrollment was shown here re ceutly when a group of alumni and friends of the institution were shown figures and charts showing the rela tion of growth to Income. Slnee 1920, when the millaee tax law went into elfcct, the student load (equivalent to full time enrollment) has Increased 83.4, while the income from millage has Increased but 12.1 perceut. For the present year the stu dent load Is experted to reach an In crease of 94 percent, while the income will be but 13.5 percent. "Only the utmost attention to de tails and most efficient administration could be responsible for the present sound condition ot the university uu der such a handicap," one alumnn de clared. "People of the state, however, cannot expect this condition to con tinue indefinitely, and ln the very near future either the quality of In struction must drop, or some means devised to keep mauy deserving youn? num and women frcm attending the institution.

This is based on the assumption that a regular student remaims for three terms and carries a normal load of 15 hours. The summer sessions are six woelis, and therefore one summer school student' was counted as one-sixth of a full time regular student. To tisose equivalents were added tho enrollment at the Eugene regular eessions. ?, i 4
