That is the problem which Is baf-
fling the doctors. Miss Mays has
been practically asleep for a week.
During that time she has taken no
nourishment, and has been 1 ma con-
dition similar to the hypnotic state.
Apparently she is in good health. The
doctors are puzzled. Some say she
is in a hypnotic state. Others, more
loyal to the old paths of the medical
science, oppose this theory.
When asked direct question the
young woman answers. Then she
lapses Immediately into the trance.
All efforts of physicians to perman-
emily arouse her have failed. Part of
the time she has sat up in n chair,
but all the time the same state has
continued.

LET THEM CROW y
SAYS FRENCH
NORMAL SCHOOL MAN
FEELS VERY HOPEFUL
Present Attendance at Weston Is
Good-Second Semester Begins on
Monday-David b. Campbell, Tai
ented Pianist, Graduate of Mon
mouth, VIII Complete Musical
Studies in Germany.

President R. C. French of the East
ern Oregon State Normal school, does
not anticipate that legislation adverse
to the present normal school will be
passed by the present legislature.
Though he has not been to Salem
during the present session, President
French has been interested in the
many normal school measures pre-
sented. But he is confident that in
the end the legislature will act
wisely.
1.-The normal schools will do very
well says the Weston president, "if
they are but left alone and given an
opportunity to grow.
"At the present time the enrolment
al Weston is such that it promises
to slightly surpass that of last year,
when total of 200 students were en-
rolled.
1.-THE first semester at the normal
closed yesterday and the new term
will begin Monday"
Attended Recital.
President and Mrs French came
down last evening to attend the re-
cital given at the Marshall home in
the evening. Both are lovers Of mu-
sic and President French is especially
interested IN Young David B. Camp
bell, the talented young pianist Mr..
Campbell, who is but II years Of age,
is a half brother of President P. L.
Campbell of the state university. He
is graduate of the four years musi-
cal course at Monmouth normal school
and during the present winter is at
tending the Whitman conservatory Of
music, in which he holds a scholar
ship won last year. At the close Of
the year at Whitman he will go to-
Berlin to continue his studies

Pendleton Girls Lose


The following from the Walla Wal
la Union tells of the crushing defeat
administered to the girls basketball
team of Pendleton Academy by the
Walla Walla high school team in
that city last evening:
Walla Walla High schools AZ,
Pendleton Academy girls /; enough
said.
The basketball game ending with
the above score last evening at the
high school gymnasium, was with a
very few exceptions, simply a ques-
ton of how many baskets the local
girls could make in a given length of
time by using a running throw.
With an utter lack of practice and
training in team work the Pendleton
girls were unable to make any show
ing in the first half. When the ball
was started at center it was promptly
tossed to Walla Walla's basket and
a two-point made. The local guards
did not have a chance to show what
they could do and stood idly looking
on. At the end of the first half the
high school had 80 to their credit,
while Pendleton had been unable to
cancel their goose egg.
Practice and observation during
the first half helped the visitors some
and they managed to interfere with
number of throws in the second
half which would have counted
against them. Margaret Hunt and
Irene Steel as forwards starred for
the home team.

was declared that a cooperative far
mers' warehouse was able to handle
the grain for 40 cents and make a
reasonable profit.
One OF the most important actions
taken by the association was the re-
fusal Of the organization to take any
action regarding the salaries Of coun-
ty officers, or other political or semi
political matters, under the ruling of
President II. J. Taylor, who believed
that they were not only foreign to its
interests, hut hurtful to the welfare
