and Il is In the very heart of the
wonderful Willamette valley. Twen.
ty-eight years ago, when the Sscra.
mento valley was as parched, and
dead as the Nevada desert, In the
middle of December the Willamette
valley fields were as green as we'll.
kept lawn, and riding from Portland
to Roseburg the train ran through
I1ong lines or orchards, where the
big red apples filled the trees and
numbered the ground.
IL is there that the Corvallis col.
leges is located; the valley around II
is luxuriant In vegetation all the year
around, while the Willamette flows
past, and towering overhead is the
coast range with the Three Sisters
and old Mount Hood keeping their
sentinel watch. IL Is one OF the fairy
spots OF the west, n place for big
thoughts and high aspirations.
Again we congratulate Or. Kerr,
and once more congratulate Oregon
and the town and college of Corvallis
on tho acquisition of sterling man
most accomplished scholar, teacher
and Christian gentleman.
Prof Kerr will leave Logan at the
end OF his term In June, and take
charge at Corvallis July 1.

tural college has received telegram
from the secretary of the board %
regents of the agricultural college OF
Oregon Informing him that he had
been elected president of that insti.
tuition. his term of ofice to begin
July 1.
The news was most gratifying To
the residents of Logan and In the
college chapel, when President Kerr
was speaking, the student body made
demonstration in his honor such as
had never been witnesses in the col
lege. There was no mistaking the
loyalty of students and faculty to
President Kerr.
President Kerr has been with the
institution seven years. In that time
the attendance has been more than
doubled, buildings have been erected
at great cost and the institution |
equipped for effective work with IN. !
cilities such as few similar institu. (

IL is regarded here as most un-
fortunate to the institution that con.

such that President Kerr could hon.

Salem business men keep "reso-
looting' about street improvements.
That has been done for years. But
don't they know that the millionaires
of the city are against such a pro-
ceedure. The millionaire who has
been made rich by the sweat Of the
business man, who gets the cream Of
the community in high rents ami
bank deposits, don't want to let go of
any of his hard-earned wealth for
public improvements. He don't be-
lieve in streets and sidewalks that
can be used by the public, and that
give the laborer a chance to get into
home of his own. They want rent
ers, lots of them, the poorer the bet
ter. Why resoloot agains the mill

Coeducatlon.

Following the lead Of one Of tn,
great western universities, and Of an.
other college in the east, the president
of one OF the best-known New Eng
land institutions of learning, in his re-.
cent annual report, expressed his dis
approval of the form of coeducation to
which the college has long been COM
mitted He wishes the institution to
continue to educate both sexes, but
separation of them in classroom and
curriculum is recommended. The re.
port comments upon a tendency which
has been noted by other educators as
manifested in other institutions, name
ly the tendency of the girls at coedu.
cational colleges to increase in mum.
bers, and Of the boys at the same col
leges to decrease; so that the ulti.
mate destiny of such institutions
seems to be a college exclusively for
girls. 1t is rather peculiar, says the
Youths Companion, that with single
conspicuous exception which has been
mentioned, most of the colleges which
have begun to question the wisdom OF
coeducation are in the east. Through.
out the west. where nearly all the uni,
versities are state institutions. coedu-
cation not only exists, but is taken as
a matter Of course; and the young
men and young women appear to get
on well together. Much of the opposi.
tion TO the admission of women comes
from the young men students. who
maintain that the college courses are
being feminized: but there are those
who shrewdly suspect that athletics
has something to do with the matter.
A college which has 600 students. OF
whom one-half are young women. has
less material from which to choose an
eleven. nine, or crew, than n col.
lege OF equal size made up wholly OF
men; and the roar OF 'rooters" is more
effective when 1t is bass and barytone
than when 1t is soprano. The problem
is difficult one. for the number OF
girls who want n college education is
constantly growing; and the place
where they shall seek 1t must always
be determined. for many of them, by
the considerations Of cost and convent.
