arrived at the house with load of
wood which had been ordered by her
husband just before his departure on

the house and going to the window
made signs to the teamster as she
supposed to throw the wood in the
cellar window which was directly
under the kitchen window and she
started in upon her Homework up
stairs She was given quite a shock
on finding out later that the teamster
had opened the kitchen window and
had thrown the load OF wood into
the kitchen. The teamster had de-
parted and there was nothing to in
dictate where the wood had been pur-
chased and the lady had to hire an
other man to carry the wood into the
cellar. With the extra cost for labor
the load was brought up TO a pretty

FACTS WORTH KNOWING
ABOUT CUTTING TIMBER.
GOVERNMENT EXPERTS MAKE EX
PERIMENTS AND EXPLODE TIME
CHERISHED FALLACIES

Scarcely day passes that does no
witness the explosion of some time
cherished fallacy. Scientists of the
government department at Washing
ton bear rather more than fair share
of the work of demolishing these pop.
ular beliefs.
The latest achievement in this line
is credited to the forest service of the
Department of Agriculture. For
years there has been a belief among
lumberman that green timber, soaked
in water, and then kiln dried, or left
In the air, will season much more rap
idly than if taken to the kiln directly
from the mill, or left in the yard to air
dry. This view has always been op-
posed by very respectable minority,
but it has remained for the department
to reach an exact conclusion by ex.
periments.
1t is announced by an official of the
forest service that series of expert
ments had demonstrated that soaking
wood in water did not have the slight

OAC Student Body.

At the close OF Assembly at tn

was a meeting of the student
body at which DR.. Kerr made a /
extern mperaneou address on "Col-
lege Spirit" which was warmly
received and ELECTED many CON-
plimentarv remarks from those
who heard it.
Following this the student
body, by unanimous rising vote,
adopted the following resolution;
which are self-explanatory and
which will be endorsed with
pleasure by the public:
To correct any mlsapprehensiou
in the mind of the public, the
Student Assembly of the Oregon
Agricultural College declares its
position as follows:
That bazing is morally and
legally wrong; that it is contrary
to the wishes and spirit of this
institution; and that such rare
instances as may have occurred
shoud not in any sense be taken
as indicating the general feeling
in regard to the matter; there
fore, be it
Resolved, That we, the STU
dents OF the Oregon Agricultural
College, deeply regret the un-
fortunate occurrence of Friday
night, October 4th, and that we
place the stamp of our dissaproval
upon all such actions; and be it
further
Resolved, That we, individ-
ually and as body, do all in our
power to prevent the practice of
hazing in any and all forms,
whatsoever, and that any person
or persons guilty of such conduct
be considered an enemy of the,
institution and unworthy to re-
main in connection with the
same; and be it still further
Resolved, That a copy OF
these resolutions be spread upon
the minutes of the Student AS

ished the press of the state.

NONE TOO BRIGHT.
Football Prospects at OAC-
Alumni Game Tomorrow.

The outlook at OAC. so tar as
football is concerned, is none too
bright just now. Things are in
an unsettled condition and it is
difficult to tell what the strength
of the team will amount to this
season, according to report.
The team will Ee somewhat
larger this season than last but it
also tends to slowness, which
will offset the advantage gained
by weight. The late opening of
school this year has handicapped
Coach Norcross in developing
his new men and rounding out a
team tor any of the November
games. The prospect is there
fore none too encouraging.
Qnite a number of the old men
are in school again and will be
on the team. Among these are
Wolf, fullback; Gagnon, quarter
back, Cady and Looney halves;
Barber and PendegIass, guards;
Dobbin and Harding, ends.
While several of the old players
are here, it must be remembered
that they are from a light team of
last year ard are not, therefore,
as valuable as would otherwise
be the case.
Of the new men who are
showing up we'll there are Francis
and Cooper, halfbacks, two local
baseball players but with no foot
ball experience; also Dinges;
Rinehart and Emily of local fame
are in school and are trying for
positions on the team; Jamisen,
a Utah man with some experience
as a lineman is also working
with the team in practice; Cherry,
tbe old center, one of the strong
est men in the line, has entered
Pullman and will play On the
Washington team. His position
on the orange will be hard to fill.
Kelly and Smith, of last year
scrubs, are trying for the place.
Bennett, the last year tackle, has
not returned yet but is expected
at anv time. Among others are
the Evanton brothers of Mon
mouth, Hawley of Newberg
Turner, the Pendleton High
school quarterback and Billy
Burrows of the 'o4 scrubs. "
Practice is carried on every day
and quite a bunch of men turn
out for the work. Possibly the
next few weeks may put more
encouraging face on the football
situation at OAC and the outlook
be more favorable than it is at
present.

America,


Every reader of the sporting
columns knows of Swan and his
record, and his wonderful play
ing in support of the Orange on
a team of his own make.
Athletics will suffer serious
loss Oh the track and in basket
bail, both the boys aud the girls,
as no doubt the work done by the
record smashing teams of last
year is yet vivid III the minds
of all.
After few weeks training in
Seattle, Swan and the Arctics
will leave for New York, in a
private car, by way of the south,
playing in all the coast cities,
those across the southern border,
up the Atlantic coast and back by
the northern route.
I Swans many friends at the old
college wish him as great a sue
cess for the future as that of the
past has been, and hope too that
his unparalleled skill will make
the northerners as phenomenal a
a team as it has those of OAC.
