u. of o. Girls Flat Footed

Eugene, Ore., Feb. 28.-Prints
lust taken in the physical culture
department of the University of
Oregon of the feet of % second
semester freshman girls show that
but three have good feet and not
one perfect toe line. These stu
dents are the first to undergo new
test being tried out by the depart
ment to determine the condition of
the feet of girls entering the uni
versity.
Most of the girls were found to
have fiat feet, caused by wearing
high heels and pointed toes.
"When one wears high heels the
muscles of the arches and the mus
cles in the back part of the foot are
weakened and gradually the arch
breakes down, causing a flat foot,
as we'll as many physical disorders
said Miss Freida Goldsmith, physical
director, who has just completed
the first set of prints.
The method of taking pictures
of the feet is similar to taking the
thumb prints. The foot is printed
and an impression made on card.
The print is then painted with a
solution which makes the lines more
distinct.
In the future all freshmen will
have footprints taken upon register.
ing and defective foot classes will
be organized.

Big Increase In
Creamery Products
Mr.. Gibbons Gives Some
Encouraging Facts

The creamery has begun to feel
the effects of the coming spring
and the increase in the output Of
butter has been noticeable during
the month of February. Mr.. Glib
bon, the local butter expert, in
forms us that the amount of butter
turned out by the local creamery
for the past week exceeds that Of
the previous weeks during the
winter by about fifty pounds, which
makes the average about seven
hundred pounds each week. He
predicts that, with the coming of
warm weather this spring and the
resultant green feed for the dairy
herds, the output of the plant will
average twelve hundred pounds
each week. The period during
which the production Of milk is
greatest is between the months Of
April and October, two months be-
ing deducted from this period for
the expected dry weather.
In his estimation, the greatest
drawback in the way Of dairy pro-
gress in this section is the lack Of
silos which are very necessary to
the proper operation of a modern
dairy in country adapted to the
raising of wheat. Even with the
decreased production during the
cold winter months, the Kendrick
Creamery has paid money on the
investment; and, with the enlarged
herds which are being planned, it
will be one of the best little in
dustries in this vicinity.

Basketball Game
Grangeville Wins by Score
of 19 to IL

= The basketball game between the
f.endrick High School and the
Grangevi!le High School resulted in
q victory for the visiting team. The
game was played in the high school
gymnasium and fair crowd was in
attendance. While we have had
faster games this season. the fact
the score was nineteen to seventeen,
indicates that this one was close
enough to be intensely interesting.
Prof. Best refereed the game and
Mr.. Cook, the Grangeville coach,
umpired. Their decisions gave
general satisfaction.
.Grangeville's line up was as fol-
lows: Halschow, Howard, Eimers,
Kabot, G.. Eimers and Atwood,
substitute. Kendrick played Waltz,
Fenton, Davis, Meyers and Guy
during the first half and substituted
F. Meyers the last half. Grange
vile threw six field goals and seven
fouls and Kendrick threw five field
goals and seven fouls.
This will probably be the last
game of the season. Mr.. McConou-
ghy deserves great deal Of credit
for his untiring efforts in behalf of
the local boys. His consistent coach
ing has brought forth marked
improvement in their teamwork
-sand has also developed some new
players who will no doubt be on the
team'next year.

Y. M. c. A. Contests

Last fall at Salem and at Ontario,
Oregon, over four hundred older
boys from Oregon and Idaho attend
ed two Boys Conferences which
were conducted under the direction
of the Oregon-Idaho Young Mems
Christian Association Executive
Committee. Now the Boys Work
Department of that Committee
announces a big Cup Contest for
older boys and another for smaller
boys. Among those who are putt
ing forth cups in the older boys
contests are Gov. James Withycombe
w. M. Lodd, Portland, Mayor H. R.
Albee, of Portland, Mr.. A. e. Sch
mitt, of Albany and Pres. Melvin
A. Brannon of the University of
Idaho, Moscow, Idaho. While the
committee cannot announce the full
list of doners at this time they will
be able to very soon. The contests
are to be launched at once.
For older boys clubs and classes
in Sunday Schools, High Schools,
Y. M. C. A. and other boys organi-
cations contests include five lines
of endeavor, Bible Study, Agricul-
ture, Membership Increase, Per
cent of Attendance, and Thrift.
Any club which can qualify may
enter any one or all of these five
contests, and as the committee has
tried to set up regulations that
will put all classes on an equal basis
the contest bids fair to be close
from the start on April 1st to the
close November 1st.
The younger boys, twelve to fif-
teen years of age are to have an
equally attractive contest involving
tests Physical, Religious, and Edu-
cational, which tests may be con-
Quoted by leaders for boys groups
of various organizations. The cup
for this contest has been offered
jointly by Pres. U. X. Hall of the
Oregon Sunday School Association
and Pres. H. C. Baldridge of the
Idaho Sunday School Association.
No contests have probably ever
been organized with such variety
of activities and including so tho
roughly all classes of boys organi-
cations as these under the direction
Lof the State Y. M. C. A. Committee
for the boys of Oregon and Idaho.
Futher information may be had by
addressing John H. Rudd. Interstate
Boys Secretary, 305 YIN C. A.,
Portland, Oregon, stating clearly in
which contests you are interested.

New Condition in
Grain Shipments
More Expensive but Quick
er Delivery

The daily shipments of grain
over the Palouse lines destined for
Atlantic terminals records a new
condition in the marketing of the
central Idaho crop and the report
made by dealers is that the bulk of
the remaining wheat crop will be
shipped out this way. At the pres
ent time the daily shipments
amount to from 10 to Is carloads
and frequently helper engines are
required to move the loads up the
Kendrick hill.
1t is explained by shippers that
two causes contribute to the move
ment of wheat by rail to the At
lantic seaboard and they are the
scarcity and high charter rates for
ships from Portland or Seattle and
the demand for quick deliveries to
Europe. The expense of market
ing by rail across the continent and
by steamers to Europe is consider
ably higher than by sailing vessel
from Portland or Seattle but less
than one-fourth of the number of
ships that would be required from
the Pacific, and the conditions in
Europe will not warrant any delay
because of slight saving in trans
portation charges.
In the central Idaho and eastern
Washington sections it is estimated
that not more than 20 to 25 per
cent of the 1915 crop remains in
the hands of the growers and only
from 80 to 35 per cent of the crop
remains in the country. The move
ment of grain east and the move
ment of war munitions and supplies
has resulted in car shortage and
for that reason the movement of
the central Idaho crop is consid-
erably retarded. The car shortage
is responsible for keeping the
steamer Spokane out of service in
the movement of grain from the
river warehouses. Up to the pres
ent time the company has been able
to supply only sufficient number
of cars for the grain handled by
the steamer Lewiston and the second
steamer cannot be placed in com,
mission until the car situation
shows Improvement.
The dealers in the Lewiston
country, however, are not especially
suffering from the car shortage
and this is due to the competitor
between the Northern Pacific anG
the o. w. R. & N. companies. The
bulk of the crop is delivered al
stations on the Camas Prairie line
and both companies are anxious fol
tonnage at all these points. In the
event one company is unable tt
supply cars when wanted, the othel
company is in readiness to push tn,
required number of cars into tn,
siding and this condition has re
suited in both companies keeping
prepared to furnish cars for any O.
!, the competitive points. The Clear
i water stations are benefited from
the competition on the Cana
Prairie line, as the Northern Paci
i fic is able to spare few cars fo
) Clearwater stations at almost an
time, but in the eastern Washingto
section where the stations are dc
t pendent on one line of railroad tn
r shippers are finding considerabl
trouble in getting cars whe
needed.-Lewiston Tribune.
