Lowell Clark writes his mother,
Mrs. Henry Clark, of an interest
ing trip which he and Maurice
Mundorf of the CCC camp at Gun
ter. Ore., took recently. In a boat
which they had built of scraps of
lumber left over from the construc
tion of their camp they set out for
sea down the Smith river. On the
hundred-mile journey they only
met three or four people, traveling
through a rough country most of
the trip. At one point their boat
struck a rock and was overturned
but they managed to save their
supplies which were wet but still
usable. At another point they were
forced to carry their supplies
around a waterfall and to let their
boat down over the falls with a
rope. At the end of their journey
tidewater they traded their boat
for a ride back to their camp. They
report a grand good time and en
joyed the outing immensely in spite
of dampness which made it hard to
get their meals at times. They were
given an interesting write-up in the
camp newspaper.

For U. of 0. Students
Eugene. Federal relief funds are
expected to be made available to
employ needy students at higher
educational Institutions in Oregon
it was announced here by W. J.
Kerr, chancellor of higher educa
tion, who has received wires from
both Senator Charles L. McNary
and Senator Frederick Steiwer stat
ing that there is reasonable assur
ance that the plan would be put
into effect.
Although official details of the
proposal have not been received, it
is understood that from $5,000,000
to $7,000,000 of federal relief funds
will be made available and will be
apportioned to the various states,
Part of the fund, it is understood,
will be used to employ needy stu
dents already at the institutions,
and part to give employment to
those not now enrolled.
The plan Is said to call for a max
imum of 30 hours of employment a
week at about 30 cents an hour.
Just what Oregon's allotment will
be is not known.
First Information of the plan as
proposed by the federal bureau of
education was received in a wire
from William A. Schoenfeld, dean
of agriculture at Oregon State col
lege, who was in Washington on
experiment station and other agri
cultural business for Oregon. While
there he also worked on the relief
project for needy students.
0. S. C. Electric Screens
May Guide Salmon at Dam
Corvallis. Columbia river fish
will probably be guided away from
danger points at the Bonneville
dam and into the flshways prepared
for them by means of electrical fish
screens developed In the school of
engineering at Oregon State col
lege. Several years ago Professor
F. O. McMillan at O. S. C. devel
oped such an electrical device, plans
for which were widely distributed
by the United " States bureau of
fisheries.
Professor McMillan, assisted by
a graduatet student In electrical en
gineering, is now making further
tests at the request of the govern
ment engineers to develop If possi
a graduate student in electrical en
screen to the situation at Bonne
ville.
Somewhat related is other re
search work In the O. S. C. civil
engineering laboratories on the size
and design of the fishwayB that will
be necessary to get the enormous
salmon run over the dam. Studies
in Alaska streams Indicate that as
many as 10,000 salmon an hour will
have to be passed at the peak of
the runs. Dr. Harlan B. Holmes of
the U. S. Fish commission has en
listed the aid of the engineering
school In these studies.

Faces at Fifty
"The fashion of his countenance
was altered." Luke 9-29.
A certain United States senator
once said: "Every man Is respon
sible for his face at fifty."
What one really is In one's own
innermost spirit, gradually and fin
ally and inevitably Imprints itself
upon the countenance, for all the
world to see.
This hour there is no more tell
ing argument In all the world
against atheism than the unhappy
face of Clarence Darrow; and no
plea for Christianity that equals the
sweet and sunny saintliness of any
true Disciple of Jesus Christ, and
which shines out from their fea
tures. For real and abiding beauty
is only the reflex of the Inner life.
Naturally, to think overmuch of
appearance will surely defeat the
end sought; but to think soberly,
as one ought to think; to think of
fine, pure, true and holy and hon
orable things; things beautiful and
unselfish, FIXES THE FACE AT

Oregon's Diamond Jubilee
To be Held at Medford
Medford, Feb. 14. Echoes of
rumbling covered wagon wheels
will again be heard when Oregon
celebrates its seventy-five years of
stathood during Oregon s Diamond
Jubilee to be held in Medford from
June 3-9, when events which made
history will be reviewed In impos
ing pageantry. Admitted to the
union on Valentine's Day, 1859. Or
egon, derived from the word Oura-
gon, has made remarkable strides
since the region first became known
dating back to the discoverey of
the Columbia river in 1792, followed
by the explorations of Lewis and
Clark in 1805.
White men knew little of the
great country of the west for nu
merous years following the travels
of Lewis and Clark, and it was not
until 1845 when the first overland
crossing was successfully complet
ed by missionaries inspired to come
west following the arrival of four
Fathead Indians in St. Louis. The
Indians wished to learn more of the
wisdom of the men of pale faces
and take back to their tribesmen
the Information they so eagerly
sought. History states two of the
aborigines died in St. Louis and an
other succumbed on the way back.
Missions paved the way for' the
Influx of settlers, who also followed
in the wake of trappers and trad
ers, gradually building a new Em
pire against discouraging odds of
nostlle Indians and conditions
which made self-preservation an
arduous task. Unsung deeds of
heroism are written on forgotten
pages of unrecorded history as
hardy pioneers surmounted great
difficulties in moulding a state,
which began to have crude forms
of government during the days of
the trappers, beginning In 1823, fol
lowed by provisional government in
1845, territorial government In 1849,
and statehood in 1859.
Faithfully these stirring epochs
of Oregon will he shown again to
Jubilee visitors, encouraging a
deeper appreciation for the efforts
of early pioneers who became in
ured to hardships and found joy In
visions they held for the future of
a land of which they were the
builders. All Oregonlans are urged
to celebrate in Medford and Jack
son county, which. Itself, played an
Important part In Oregon's yester
years.

Dairy Control Plan Told;
Some Farm Pork Tax Free
Removal of the minimum limit in j
the hog section of the corn-hog
control plan, establishment of far
mer exemptions under the hog pro
cessing tax, and outline of the ten
tative plan for dairy production
control are late developments un
der the AAA, according to a review
of the agricultural officials at Ore
gon State college.
The recent address by Secretary
Wallace on "The Dairy Dilemma,"
contained the first authoritative
explanation of the kind of produc
tion control contemplated for dairy
ing by the AAA. Even It Is still
tentative, however, as to details,
hence there Is still time for It to be
carefully considered by dairymen
thruout the country looking tow
ard possible changes or additions
before the final contract forms are
arrived at.
The plan proposed by Wallace
calls for an individual voluntary
farm allotment amounting to. 85
per cent of the average annual pro
duction of each dairyman over the
past three years. Thus, cooperat
ing dairymen would agree to re
duce production 15 per cent under
the base period.
For such reduction, to be made by
any plan they saw fit to adopt, they
would be compensated by adjust
ment payments to be financed from
a processing tax on butterfat which
would reach a maximum of five
cents per pound, with a compen
satory tax on oleomargarine. As
substantial an advance payment as
possible would be made to each
dairy farmer soon after his con
tract is accepted.
Secretary Wallace promises to
keep the plan as flexible as possible
so as to permit expansion of the in
dustry as fast as consumer demand
warrants. There are other angles
of the plan about which more will
be announced later.
The change on the corn-hog plan
allows any grower of hogs to join
and receive benefit payments in re
turn for reducing his production
by at least 25 per cent Previously
an average of three litters a year
was the bottom limit necessary be
fore a man could sign a hog con
tract. This change is expected to
Increase the total Oregon signup
very materially, as most hog pro
ducers In this state are relatively
small producers.
The change in the hog processing
tax allows each farmer an annual
exemption of 300 pounds of pork
products he sells or trades from
slaughterings of hogs of his own
raising. This applies only where
his total sales of products in any
marketing year do not exceed 1000
pounds.
Peavy Selection Brings
O.S.C. $4800 Book Gift
Corvallis.-A special set of books
valued at $4800 has been presented
to the Oregon State college library
by Mrs. Mary J. L. McDonald to
commemorate the appointment of
Dean George W. Peavy as acting
president of the institution. The
set is a 24-volume specially illus
trated and bound copy of the Get
tysburg edition of the complete
writings of Abraham Lincoln.
Mrs. McDonald has been a lib-
I eral supporter of the school of for
estry through gifts of timber tracts
for use in experimental forest work
and has in addition contributed
more than 1000 volumes of fine and
rare books to a special collection
now established under her name in
the college library. The latest gift
set was made up to order, is ex
quisitely bound, and contains many
original documents related to the
life of Abraham Lincoln purchased
for inclusion In the set Intact which
are of untold Interest to students
of the period.
Two Changes in Grades
Recommended for Wheat
Proposed revision of the federal
grain grades, now before the coun
try for discussion, might well in
clude the creation of two new sub
classes of white wheat, believes
George R. Hyslop, head of the farm
crops department at O. S. C, who
is a recognized authority on this
subject. He headed a federal com
mittee that held hearings and for
mulated many of the present pro
posals for revision.
Pacific northwest farmers and
buyers of northwest wheat would
profit from a new extra-soft white
sub-class which would permit
southern millers especially to get
the soft wheats for pastry and hot
bread flour that they desire, says
Hyslop. Another pure white club
sub-class would take care of the
large amount of pure club wheat
now grown but which must go as
merely western white. Farmers
who desire these or other changes
made are advised to write the sec
retary of agriculture and members
of the Oregon congressional dele
gation. O.S.C. Training Teachers
For Emergency Schools
An emergency nursery school
program has been decided upon for
Oregon by the federal emergency
relief administration, and Oregon
State college has been selected as
the training center for teachers to
bo placed in charge of the emer
gency schools. Such training, In
fact, is already under way on the
campus at Corvallis under the di
rection of Mrs. Sara W. Prentiss,
acting head of household adminis
tration. The emergency nursery school
project is the sixth educational pro
gram launched by the federal relief
administration through use of CWA
fund3. It is sponsored by the U. S.
office of education. Communities
of the state that want such emer
gency school established secure the
necessary allotment of CWA funds
and make application for a school
through the local school superin
tendent and the state department
of education.
The training school at Oregon
State college started February 10
with 24 unemployed teachers, many
of whom are graduates In home
economics, enrolled for an Inten
sive two-weeks course. The col
lege nursery school whicn nas
hpsn nnemted for nearly 10 years,
is the "laboratory" for the course.
Some requests from communities
for these teachers have already
kun ror-nivsri and more are expect
ed as the possibilities and proced
ure become known.
Dairymen to Discuss New
Federal Control Program
La Grande The annual conven
tion of the Oregon Dairymen's as
sociation which opens a two-day
session here Friday, promises to
become an important statewide con
ference for the consideration of the
tentative plans for a dairy produc
tion control program recently an
nounced by the secretary of agri
culture, Henry A. Wallace.
President George Fullenwider of
Carlton is urging that delegations
be present from every dairy county
in the state so as to make the dis
cussions of the plan truly represen
tative and in order that. any pro
posals to be made to the agricul
tural adjustment adminstration em
body the wishes of the entire state.
Fresh from a month spent in
Washington will be Dr. William A.
Schoenfeld, dean of agriculture at
Oregon State, who will take a lead
ing part in the AAA discussions.
V. O. RESEARCH RECOGNIZED
Eugene. Discovery of the source
of many of Matthew Arnold's Ideas,
a finding that is expected to bring
about a new evaluation of this great
writer and critic of the nineteenth
century, was announced at the Uni
versity of Oregon by Joseph W.
Angell. graduate assistant in the
department of English.
Mr. Angell found that one of the
sources drawn on extensively by
Arnold is Ernest Ronan, noted
French writer-critic, and the find
ings are considered so authoritative
that an article "Matthew Arnold's
Indebtedness to Ronan's 'Essalse
de Moral et de Critique' " has been
accepted for publication in the In
ternational journal "Revue de Lit
erature Comparee of Paris.
U. O. PROFESSOR HONORED.
Eugene. Dr. Harold J. Noble,
associate professor of history at
the University of Oregon, has been
elected a member of the American
Council of the Institute of Pacific
Relations. Dr. Noble is the second
university faculty member chosen
by this group, and will serve with
Wayne L. Morse, dean of the school
of law, who was chosen a few days
ago. Dr. Noble, although one of
the younger historians of the Pa
cific Coast, is already regarded as
an authority on the Orient. Much
of his .life was spent there, and he

Walnut Grows Large Root
Dallas A six-year-old walnut
tree can have a root more than 50
feet long. Polk county walnut and
filbert growers are certain of this,
because they have seen such a root
dug up by Mr. Bates of the Salem
district which was 48 feet long and
had been broken off several feet
from the end. This root was ex
hibited at two nut growers' meet
ings the past month, one attended
by 36 growers and the other by 66.
It effectively demonstrates the need
for a large distance between wal
nuts as well as other trees, accord
ing to County Agent J. R. Beck.
