PRACTICE IN SECRET.
Football Men are Confident of
Victory.

During the past week the foot
ball people have been exceeding
ly upper class and exclusive.
ALI their practice has been done
in secret and ssmum" has been
the word on all things connect
ed with football. It has been
simply impossible to find out
what has been going ON but peo-
pie are glad for it begins to look
like real war and everybody's
confidence is becoming stronger
as the operations proceed aud the
great day approaches. An anus
ing incident in connection with
the secret operations was the al
tempt on the part of Professor
Chas. johnson, one of the col
lege athletic committee to gain
entrance. He was on his way
home and wanted to take a short
cut through the football grounds.
Guards were stationed at each
gate and patrolling on the ontside
as though it were a Russian ma
gazine and some Jap wanted to
touch it of. The Professor after
appealing at each gate for admis-
sion and beiug refused, attempt,
ed to climb the high board fence.
He succeeded in getting on top
when a courageous corporal seiz-
ed him by the foot and held on
for dear life much to Mr.. John
sons discomfort. The boys on
the inside seeing the predicament
into which their best friend had
fallen came quickly to his rescue
and received him on the inside.
1t now promises to be a wet and
sloppy day butno worse thanayear
ago when OAC played Nevada.
The rain and mud will not inter
fere with the game for it will
come off rain or shine and will
be without doubt the best game
ever played in this valley.

Warning to the Public.

Where do you get your laundry
work done? Do you know that
improperly washed clothing is
one of the most fruitful fields for
the breeding Of all kinds OF dis
eases and germs?~ Do you know
also that the Corvallis Steam
Laundry has a. scientific process
for washing clothes that renders
them absolutely clean and free
from all contamination? The
laundry, which is home industry
has every modern convenience
for doing only strictly frst-class
work. Go down to the laundry
building and see for yourself, the
proprietor. Mr.. johnson will be
pleased to show you every de-
tail of the work, the building is
open to the public and any one
may 60 who desires.
Mr.. johnson makes all his own
soap. bluing, bleaching, starch
ing, etc, and oversees the entire
plant with personal care. Most
of the work is done by machin-
cry and in such a way that the
most delicate fabrics are handled
with great care. There is no
tearing or stretching, or breaking
of buttons.
The work of finishing and
wrapping is done by a groupe of
neatly dressed and handsome
young ladies. Mr.. Johnson's
pay roll averages $3.50 a month,
which is fair indication of the
amount of work done for the
public, and the popularity of his
plant.
Laundry arrives daily from
all points on the c. & E. and
from points on the S. P. as far
distant as Dallas, Monmouth and
Independence. There was a time
when people were probably jus,i-
fed in sending their laundry to
Albany and other points but Cort
wallis now has one that can no
be excelled anywhere in the
Willamette Valley.

Birds Wanted

Profe ssor Shaw of the Oregon
College has sent an
Interesting display of birds to the
National Grange which is in ses-
sion at Portland this week. The
birds were all of the weed-seed
destroying species. Each one is
carefully mounted and each one
has a case by itself. There are
a dozen birds in this display
which is only a small part of the
large number. belonging to the
species. In the craw Of one of
the birds there were found 400
seeds Of noxious weeds. The
purpose Of the display is to edu-
cate the farmers on the value of
th .se birds and prevent if posi-
bic the destruction going on.
Professor Shaw is now aud has
been for the past year and a half
preparing an exhibit of mounted
birds for the Lewis and Clark
Fair. He has nearly $50 speci-
mems so far and will secure as
many more as possible. He is
making an effort to produce a dis
play as complete as possible but
has had many difficulties to sur.
mount in securing suitable birds.
His collection at the present time
is composed largely of small birds
and he desires the assistance o1
people everywhere in the state in
securing specimens of the large,
birds. He desires right now tc
secure wild geese, ducks, brant,
eagles and large owls. Professor
Shaw will gladly 60 after these
specimens if he knows or if some.
one will tell him where they are.
The college will bear all expense
in shipping, etc. and desires very
much that an interest be created
along this line. The entire col
lection when completed will b.
lsent to the Lewis and Clark Fai,
and after that event will b,
brought back to Corvallis anf
Iplaced In the Agricultural Hal
lat the college as a permanent
museum.
| The specimens already mount
led by Professor Shaw are yer,
fine and he is sparing no pains t
make his work as complete ANT
successful as possible.
