Much enthusiasm was aroused
Wednesday evening at the regular
meeting of the Woodmen of the

communication from the head camp
announcing that W. o. W. insurance
will not be affected on account of
the war. The local camp at once
TOOK action to protect the member

of Uncle Sam This action may
mean considerable financial loss to
the local camp but the neighbors do
not want it said that any man jeop-
ardi1es his standing in this great in
surance fraternity by serving his
country in her time of need.
The camp decided to endorse and

SAFETY DEPOSIT BONES

The First National bank has add
ed to the metropolitan conveniences
OF Pullman by installing a nest of
"a safety deposit boxes in its vault.
There are 176 boxes, 31a inches
deep, six inches wide and 30 inches
long, and eight larger ones, four
inches deep, 12 inches wide and
20 inches long. All of the boxes are
constructed of chilled steel five
eighths of an inch in thickness. Each
box has two Yale locks, the key to
one of which is held by the renter
and the key to the other is retained
by the bank. The box can not be
opened by either one of the keys
alone, both have to be used at the
same time. A number of the boxes
have already been rented by patrons
of the bank, who seem to greatly
appreciate the convenience of having
an absolutely safe place in which
to keep their valuables.

tural purposes shall be the basis of
appraisal, and the earning power of
such land, its location, its adaptabu-
ity for Improvement, and the general
value OF like real estate in the vicin-
ity' shall be the principal factors in
determining its value. Loan COM
mittees should appreciate that this
is intended to be the farmers hank,
they must be safe and conservative.
and they should not value a farm
higher than they would be willing
to pay for it in actual cash at the
time of appraisal.
The territory of an association
may not extend across state lines
The territory of different associations
may overlap. 1t seems advisable
that the territory covered by an as
ISOLATION be as large as may be con-
yenient for examinations by the
loan committee without excessive
travelling. The territory of an asso-
citation should be clearly defined by
sections or townships or other per-
manent lines.
When ten or more borrowers in
a county or neighborhood form a
farm loan association. they must
select not less than five preferably
six directors. These directors Sc
lect from their own number pres
ident and vice president. They
elect a secretary-treasurer who need
not be borrower, nor farmer nor
resident of the district. They elect
also loan committee of three.
which committee should preferably
be chosen from those members of the
association not directors. All Off
GERS and directors other than the
secretary-treasurer must be bona
tlde residents of the territory in
which the association is formed.

ARMY OFFICERS URGE
ATHLETIC CONTESTS

The following is an extract from
an article that appeared in last SUN
days Oregonian:
That athletics can be made to
play an important part in the pre-
paration of high school and college
men for service in both the Army
and the Navy, is the opinion of many
of those in charge of military and
naval affairs. Colonel L. G. Nc
Alexander, OF the U. S. Army, who
for several years had charge of the
cadets at the Oregon Agricultural
College, is heartily in favor of con-
tinuing athletics.
The cancellation of the games
and meets between the various insti-
tutiOns because of men joining the
ranks has its drawbacks, said Col
onel MCAleXander last night. The
men should remain in college and
high school and complete their teams
work, that is, until conditions war
rant their departure from the
schools.
Just why athletics should be dis
continued at the present time | cam
not see. Athletics forms an inn
portant part in conditioning the men
in the service. OF course military
drill should be encouraged, but in
doing so it is not necessary to de-
prive the men from the athletic COM
petitions.
"'Of course it would be wise to call
off or postpone the contests which
require long trips, but as far as the
colleges and high schools of the
Northwest competing among them
selves it is justified. At the same
time the athletes are drilling to make
the teams they certainly can take
up the military drills, and thereby
perfect themselves in case of need.
THE present is too unsettled for
the games to be put to one side.
Just as soon as definite action is
taken and the word is given to move
the troops. then it is time to put
aside the smaller things of life. 1t
will be noted that in many cases it
is the athlete who readily jumps to
the fore and enlists. In nine cases
out of ten he is always ready for an
emergency Intra-mural sports es-
pecially should be encouraged, as
we'll as contests between institutions
in the state.
IL Many of the leading colleges of
the East after having fallen into
line by calling off athletic competi-
tions have reconsidered the matter.
Major General Wood urges that ath-
letics be encouraged during the per-
iod of the war.
Major Pickering. graduate man
ager of the University of Pennsyl-
vania, wrote to Major General Wood
asking his advice on what would be
the action towards sports. General
Wood replied in part with, Tell your
young men to stick to their duties
until such time the government calls
for men. This it will do undoubted-
ly when its plans are announced.
The most important service the men
can render their country now is to-
stay at their university and put in
all the time possible under the mil
itary instructors in preparing them
selves for probable service. There
is no reason why athletics should not
be encouraged. They will tend to
relieve the monotony.
Captain Edward Weberle, super
intendent of the Naval Academy,
strongly urges the continuance OF
athletic contests between college
teams, Notwithstanding the war.
