There is wisdom in recrea-
ton. An outing should have a
place in the yearly program of
every man and woman. True
rest is not loafng; it is not idle
ness. 1t is escape from routine,
from the monotony of work, from
the treadmill of business or the
rounds of tasks on the farm or in
the home; it is a new direction
of our energies-the refreshment
of change; closer touch with
nature. There's an aborigine in
every one of us-a primitive man.
Civilization has only polished,
not changed, the fibre, and when
spring comes we sigh for the
woods or the seaside, the camp
by the mountain stream, or Il e
tent on the beach. Fresh air. the
tonic of the sea, large space
more sky than bends over any
town, and the life untrammelled
by conventional forms-this is
hunger as natural as the appetite
of the growing boy. And change
means rest-refreshment. 1t re-
news our energies; it fills up the
organic springs, out of which we
have been drawing too rapidly; it
recreates US, so that we go back
to our work with fresh vigor. 1t
is a good investment; it pays.
More work will be done and done
better. ''All work and no play"
that old proverb packed the
wisdom Of centuries in a sentence.
The best prescriptions are not
written by physicians. They come
from NATURES sanatorium, and
are free. They do not cost any

what the waves are saving. Take

and go home to better appetite,
and sweeter sleep than you have

Salem to Have a New Railroad.

A project is on foot to extend
the Dallas-Falls City railroad from
Dallas to Salem a distance of IA
miles. Salem has already accept
ed the proposition made by Mr..
]. w. Coovert, the engineer Of
the Dallas Falls City r. r. Co, !,
and will donate a terminal 500
by 300 feet, secure a right Of
way through the city, and grant
a loan OF .$72, 900 at S per cent.
interest half to be paid when the
road is half done, remainder
when the road is completed, Sc
cured by a first mortgage on the
road. The, estimated cost of the
road is $I67,o34, $oo, 600 OF
which Mr.. Covert promises to put
into the road himself, before any
one else is asked to contribute.
Work will probably commence
in July. The matter was taken
up by the Commercial Club Of
the city some time ago, when
committees were appointed to in
vestigate and report upon the
proposition. In its report the
committee deemed it not only a
feasible project but that the re-
sources of the Falls City country
were such that road would be
highly profitable. When it came
to a vote on the proposition pre-.
sented by Mr.. Coevert there was
but one dissenting vote.

An Evening of Song and Story

The people of Corvallis have a
local as we'll as state pride in the
%. A. c. and Commencement
week IS ever anticipated with
pleasure. One of the events that
is always looked forward to is the
entertainment given by the de-
partment of elecution and music
which occurred Tuesday evening
in the College Chapel. The vo-
cal nusic uhder the direction OF
Florence Mcdowell Green was
we'll rendered and showed eff
cient training. The Ladies choir
gave two numbers with pleasing
effect. A pantomime THE Ho-
|fy CITY by Miss ST German,
sung by Miss Edna Allen, was
very much enjoyed. Miss Allen
has only been before the public
this year, but her voice is one
of great sweetness and she bids
fair 10 become one of our favor
ite singers, while the pantomime
was beautifully rendered by Miss
St German. Her work showed
careful training as did all the
pantomimers. The vocal num-
bers by Miss Lilly and Mr.. Kill
pack were we'll received. Mrs.
Pernot sang with fine effect,
'The Erl King" by Schubert.
Mrs. Green deserves praise for
her years work, and she had rea-
son to feel proud of her pupils on
this occasion.
The numbers under the direc-
ton of Miss Crawford were quite
up to the standard if they did not
excel her former entertainments.
Her work is thorough and pains
taking and is always greeted by
a large and appreciative audience.
The recitations by Miss Wicklund
and Miss Tartar were we'll rem
dered, while the honors were even
ly divided between Mr.. Selleck,
and Miss St German who both
did exceptionally we'll. This is
Mr.. Sellecks first year at the o.
A. C.. He has marked ability
and we shall expect to hear from
him in the future.
Perhaps the most finished work
of the evening was the recita-
ton by Miss st. Germain .sThe
Wooing of Berenice" which was
given with fine effect: Miss st.
Germain has marked talent in elo-
cution and her work on this oc-
casion reflected credit on her in
structor. Taken as a whole the
entertainment was a decided sue
cess. The Chapel was filed to
overfowing while many stood in
the halls during the entire pro-
gram.

ADDRESS TO CLASS.

morning, spoke of the war be-
tween Russia and Japan. He
said that it was a strained situa-
ton between England and Rus
sia and later involving Japan.
He said that the time for the war
had come and although states
men tried to put it off the causes
had been at work so long that
climax could not be averted.
He spoke of the size and popula-
ton Of Russia, her length being
10, 600 miles and her population
100000. 900. He said that one
reason of the great power OF Rus
sia IS that Peter the Great recog-
nlzed the fact which the history
of the world has always demon
strated that commerce is a more
potent factor in the enlig ghtenment
of a people than all other human
agencies combined. He then
went on to say how the working
out of this idea by Peter the
Great and his successors had re-
suited in the present Russian
government. He said that the
object Of this eastern conquest by
Russia IS 70 gain an ontlet to
their great empire. He closed
by saying that since Asia has
been entered by people bent on
conquest she must undergo a
great change. But that her
final destiny will be determined
by Him to whom a thousand
years is as a day and yet He notes
the sparrow's fall.
CLASS DAY.
Tuesday afternoon at I o'clock
the seniors gathered at the col
lege to raise their flag. The
juniors were their first and had
their flag up. The seniors were
not expecting this but promptly
made their way to the top of the
college building in spite of much
opposition, captured the junior
flag, and tearing in it shreds
hoisted their owns, amid cheers
from below. The Juniors, when
they saw that their own flag was
torn down were equal to the
occasion and raised a pole with
their flag on it out on the campus.
The president told the seniors
to take down their flag and raise
the Stars and Stripes. This was
done, but it made the class rather
indignant and they refused to
have their exercises without their
flag. The juniors then gave a
mock program around their flag
on the campus.
THE ALUMNI.
Wednesday afternoon in the
chapel the alumni had their bust
ness meeting. They reelected
the same president; George Dem
man was elected and F. E. Ed

Newton's Famous Axiom.

Mr. Spencer has said C'First Princi-

the truth that matter Is indestructlble"
rests only upon "a tacit assumption Of
IT," "a tacit assumption" with no ra-
tlonal basis for the assumption, would
be no verification; II would be guess.
The truth thnt mntter and force are In
destructlble rests upon better ground
than an assumption. 1t Ia the inevita-
Bile corollnry of Newton's Third Law
of Motion, which is accepted as the
fundamental axiom OF physics, ITO
every action there IL an equal and op-
poslte reaction" III there could be n
single case In which matter and force
are annlhllated, then Newton's axiom
would be untrue, for In that case re-
action would fail to follow action. The
turning of something into nothing by
the destruction of matter or force
would break the succession OF cause
and effect, of action and reaction, and
consequently the theories of the inde-
structibillty of matter and Of force
have their roots In Newton's axiom, In

equivalence, of compensation, Of bal

King Alfonso's Bet.

When the king of Spain was at Here's
he greatly admired a horse belonging
to Senor Rivero, one of the notables of
the town, who at once presented him
with the animal. The king refused the
gift, but the other day at the pigeon
shooting at the Casa de Campo. near
Madrid, match was arranged be-
tween the king and Senor Rivero. The
stakes were, on the kings side, gold

Like skillful courtier Senor Rivero
lost and sent the king the horse which
he had so much admired as n souvenir

to accept, but he at once sent the senior

the trouble Is all In the pillow. It's
the pillow first, last and always. He
has slept in many lands and under all
imaginable conditions and years ago
came to the conclusion that with ones
own pillow at hand it mattered little
about the bed. On an extended tour he
always takes his pillow with him.

present form through the transfer Of
the IN" of the indefinite article used
with 1t from its proper place to the
front of the noun. Thus "an ekename"
became first u "a nekename" and then
"a nickname"
There are some similar cases in Eng
lish of which the word newt is an
example. having been originally "an
