and DR., G.. j. Sweetland, the coach,
who rounded out the splendid team
which, among other performances, hum
bled the University Of Oregon.
It may be said in this connection that
one reason that the Willamette Univer-

that its membership was not selected
because the player belonged to this or
that frat. 1t was made up of men
chosen because of their ability to play
the game. This course might be fol.
lowed advantageously by certain teams
not located in Marion county.

interesting Comparison Of the Two
Brought Under Observation In
New York Recently.

Two Italian girls were on the boat
going from Ellis island to New York,
one who had evidently lived in New
York for some time and her sister,
whom she had just met. The one
who knew New York was furtively
trying to furnish up her sisters cos
tune, by pulling the collar of her
blouse outside of her coat, rolling up
her umbrella, and other little serv-
ices. She, herself, was CARRIED in
cheap editions of all the ultra fash

high heels and scanty skirt. Her
sister was beautiful picture of out
door Italian health. She walked with
a free swing and carried her suitcase
on her head, much to the humiliation
of the other.

9.1|eaI Journsi Dcprecstes the Re
noval OF the TonslIs Without
Due Consideration.

The Boston Medical and Surgical
Journal. in reviewing a discussion on
the removal of the tonsils, expresses
the opinion that the operation is a
much more serious one than II is pop
ularlv considered, and should certain
ly not be entered upon lightly, but
discreetly, advisedly and soberly.
This admonition coming as it does at
a season when the tonsils, especially
in children, are most subject to irri-
tation and inflammation, should be
borne in mind. "Tonsils," says the
Journal, SHOULD not be removed for
trivial symptoms. Tonsillitomy is
not justifable simply because the
tonsils protrude in front of the pill
lars, or because they look ragged, OF
for occasional sore throat, or because
they contain plugs, or because the pa
tent is under ether for adenoids, Of
for any remote symptoms not of
serious nature, or to protect the chile
from indefinite infection, or for al
occasional attack of simple acute ton
silitis."
