UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY
SHARES IN FOOD SAVING

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu-
gene, Nov. S.-Students and faculty OF
the University of Oregon are doing
their part in the national movement
for conservation of food. Courses of
lectures on conservation, courses in
household arts. pledeins the aid of the
members of sorority and fraternity
houses. and arranging for the ap-
pearance of speakers to further urge
economy in food consumption, are
some of the means by which those in
the college community will be taught
to economize.
Reduce consumption one-tenth by
eliminating waste" is the aim of stu
dents. Investigations on the campus
show that more than one-tenth of the
food purchased goes to waste, SO it is
this wasted portion which students
hope to eliminate.
The one thousand odd persons in the
college community are organized to
conserve food ON a plan exactly like
that in use in the counties of every
state of the union. James $. Sheehy,
president of the student body was
appointed chairman Of the organiza-
ton by A. L. Dixon, chairman of the
Lane county committee. Mr. ShechN

State Normal school here twice on

School Progress by Revolutions"
Mr.. Hollis plea was for better
rural school. He spoke for the stand

the pupils by use Of the various tests.
He gave facts historical and statisti-
cal. If the community can't have any.

have the best types of one.room

Mr.. Hollis made some comparisons
with the school systems of Europe.
His remarks on conditions in North
Dakota were based on actual observa.
tons and were made interesting and
instructive. % @

Humor proves to be the saving clause
Of many distressing situation. The

has gone right along in the forward
direction despite what seemed to be

The Drum Of the Ear.

The reason deaf people cannot hear is
that the drum Of the. ear. is imperfect
or has been destroyed. Sound is moth
ing but the vibrations of the air acting
on the drum of the ear. When people
are quite deaf it is because the ear
drum will not respond to these vibra-
tons, but they can still feel these vibra-
tons even If they cannot hear them.
When a number Of deaf mutes are sit
ting in room together and one wishes
to attract the attention Of another he
strikes his heel on the floor, and every
one in the room feels the vibration and
looks around to see who called. In the
large asylums for the deaf and dumb
the doors are hung very loosely, so that
il you shake them 1t sets up vibration
like stamping on the floor, and that is
the way they wake up deaf people that
sleep too late In the morning.

The Unpatriotic.

Pierre de Coulevain's 1.-THE Heart of
Love-" "What constitutes the worth Of
a country Is the worth Of each mem
Der Of it,
That is great truth. In the light of
it only a, worthy citizen Is patriot
The questions are: Who is the worthy
citizen? What are his qualities? What
sort of life does he lead? When these
questions are pressed with respect to
very many people it will be found that
there are many persons who are real
enemies of the country rather than its
patriots. Every CRATER, every dema-
.gogue, every spells politician, every
drunkard, every gambler, every pro-
fame swearer, every liar, backbiter and
every" man who beats and curses his
wife is an enemy of the country, and
as long as they last the republic will
be an experiment and problem. One
must be worthy man to be a friend
Of his country.-Ohio State Journal.

Aviation Tests.

Could you learn to aviate? Try the
following tests, which were given to
a number of would be government avi-
ators who were examined recently In
the government school of aviation:
Balance thirty seconds on either foot
with your eyes closed.
Walk backward and forward thirty
PAGES with your eyes closed and see
how far you have strayed from a
straight line.
Sit on a revolving chair and twirl
yourself around half dozen times;
then, without opening your eyes, name
the direction you are facing.
Put cold water In your ears; then re-
place it by warm water. If the effect
is the same in both cases your ears
are normal as far as susceptibility to
altitude is concerned.-Chicago Trib-

cards orc made Of three or four sheets

them the sheet on which Is printed the

paste. A sheet Of cartridge paper is
laid on this and covered with paste.
Perhaps a second sheet Of cartridge
paper is added. Finally the sheet

is placed on top. ....,.z.,l
When the workman has great stack
Of these pasted sheets he puts them In
a strong press and squeezes out all the
water from the paste. Then they are
separated and dried, which makes them

to be ironed between steel rollers and
pressed between smooth sheets Of zinc

brushed with a mixture of white lead,

In ancient times, before the invention
Of stirrups and luxurious saddles,
horses were taught to kneel to permit
their riders to mount. A beautiful
Greek vase in one of the museums in
Petrograd shows a war horse Of many
centuries ago kneeling low before an
amazon. The riders in those days
mounted from the "off'' side in contra
diction to the modern usage. Plutarch
tells how In the first century Of this
era certain effeminate Roman riders
found even the horse block Of too little
assistance and had their horses trained
to kneel to them.
