Professor Florian Won Eschen, DR.. B.
L. Sleeves, president of the board of
trustees, and DR.. R. n. Avison gave ad-
dresses. The professor s remarks hing
ed on the idea that the government
does not want college young men to
enlist at present and makes it specific
ally known that it desires them to com
plete their college course. To all young
men under 2l it says 90 to college or
complete your high school course. This
insistenee upon young men that they
gain a higher training The professor
gave as the reason, .Aat the nation
needs now as never before trained lead
ers.
DR.. Sleeves presented more in detail
the claims of Willamette. He gave a
brief outline of the history of the in
stitution. For willamette to grow the
trustees, faculty and friends must all
eo-operate. 1t is "the most important
activity of Methodism on the Pacific
coast and it is poor Methodist who
does not wish to see Willamette UNI
versity grow" DR.. Sleeves also present
ed the needs of the university. They
are: increased endowment, a new girls
dormitory, and more students. He clos
ed by stating that next years fresh
man class should be the largest in the
history of the institution.

The claims of old Willamette and of
higher education in general was the
theme of the morning services at the
First M. Z. church, Sunday. This day
is known as "Willamette University

the Methodist churches in the patron

ARE THE MoRMoNs MORALE

Some astonishing ideas are set forth
in an article on the Mormons of Salt
Lake City by Louis Sherwin in the
current issue of THE SMART SET
MAGAZINE. Mr.. Sherwin is Gentle
and he vigorously defends the Saints
with all the ardor of a convert. Not
only does he argue that they have been
grossly libeled by Gentle critics; he
even maintains that they are far more
moral truthful and thrifty than any of
the Gentiles. The article contains some
astonishing revelations and is causing
great deal Of gossip and speculation.

PURITY AND POWER
Necessary to Overcome Impure Blood
and Weak Conditions.

The recent trying weather, ex-
posure to storms, the grip. hard colds,
pneumonia, fevers, diphtheria and
other blood poisoning, prostrating dis
eases leave the whole system sub
normal-below par-weak and slow
blood depleted and thin, with that
tired feeling, poor appetite, delicate
digestive power or almost none at all.
The ideal treatment is
Hoods Sarsaparilla-to be taken
before meals-thofoughly to purify
the blood and expel poisons, and
Peptiron Pills--to be taken after
meals-to put power into the blood,
give strength, increase red corpuscles
and restore normal health tone.
Hoods Sarsaparilla has for 40 years
won and held the favor of the people.
Peptiron Pills are named from pep
sin and iron-and include nuX and
other good blood and stomach tonics.
Be wise and begin on this sensible,
reliable course of medicine today.

PUTTING DOWN EGGS

During the spring eggs usually re-
tail around 35 cents a dozen and often
less. Six months later the price may
be double.
Spring eggs can easily be kept over
until the high price season, by putting
them down in water glass, says an au-
thority which can be purchased at drug
stores for about 35 cents quart
A quart of water glass mixed with
IL quarts of water that has been boiled
and then cooled will be sufficient to
preserve about Is dozen eggs A strong
er solution should be used for eggs that
are to be held six to eight months or
longer. Stir the water glass and water
mixture until thoroughly mixed.

DON'T BE STUNG
ON THIS LETTER
Chain Proposition Works on Patriot
ism and Love for France
to Get Some
Money.

The feeling of love so generally
entertained by Americans for France
and the soldiers Of France is appeal
ed to in the latest chain letter swindle
that is now being run down. 1t Is
known that at least forty business
houses had each sent six letters with
the request that each of the six reci-
pients send out six additional letters.
All persons receiving letters were
asked and, probably, did send twenty
five cents to aid in the establish
ment and maintenance of a special
hospital in Paris for the wounded in
the face and jaw.
The letter purports to be copy of
a letter from the French consul,
Seattle Washington, and make an
honorable appeal to the Am erican
business man" 1t sets forth that
France helped us during the revo-
luton, let us help her now" and
urges all receiving the letter not to
break the chain for ITO do so would
greatly hamper this noble work and
work great hardship on a truly
humanitarian cause"
The letter also saws that the Amer
lean Red Cross will give $4,000 for
every $1,000 raised for the purpose

Many people in this section, as else

Anuric to be the most successful remedy
to overcome these painful and danger
Gus ailments.
The lucky people are those who have
suffered, but who are now well because
they needed Natures warning signal in

wonderful new discovery of DR.. Pierce's
called An-u-ric. You should promptly
heed these warnings, some of which are
dizzy spells, backache, irregularity of the
urine or the painful twinges of rheuma-
tism, sciatica or lumbago. To delay may
make possible the dangerous forms of
kidney disease, such as diabetes or stone
in the bladder.
To overcome these distressing condi-
tions you should take plenty of exercise
in the open air, avoid a heavy meat diet,
drink freely of water ana at each meal

| The Post believes in these United
States, it loves the stars and stripes,
! 1t has done and is doing its utmost
to win this war which will place lib
erty above the reach Of bloody hands
of kings and give to free men the
right to live, free, untrammeled by
power, unbending to the will of any
kaiser or any king.
We are at war. The conduct of
that war is in the hands of men who
know the foe we fight-an insidious,
treacherous foe, which has placed its
puppets and it's agents in unsupported
places.
They decided--these men who di-
rect our boys towards trench and Dat
tlefield-that newspapers Of this coun-
try should not print certain facts
about our fighting forces. They d.
rected that the papers refrain from
printing news of the departure OF
troops abroad, of their arrival, of the
names of regiments sent, of the Of
ficers in command-and added to that
request the reason for the order.
They know that the kaiser has his
spies and agents in this country and
that not all the avenues Of communi-
cation are closed. They know that
those trained military experts OF Ger
many, behind these lines of men, can
best direct their forces If they know
where our soldiers are, how many
are there, what equipment they have
and what leaders are in command.
They learned that from English
papers, before England learned the
lesson at the cost of precious lives
and her best blood, Germany obtained
precise information as to the troops
and their location upon the battle
fields.
From even such seemingly unim.
portant information as the return of
wounded soldier, giving his regi-
ment, German spies sent out the
word that enabled the Hun to capture
a brigade.
From one item in an obscure prov
ince paper as to the size of a regi-
ment at certain point, those Ger
man generals centered force that
won a battle.
knowing these things, the war de-
partment of this country placed in
the charge of the loyal papers Of this
country the task Of seeing that no
such mistakes, if published in an ex-
cess Of news zeal, no such treasons

Feed the Allies by Saving
Pound of -Four a Week

The United States food administra-
ton issues the following:
Your governm ent asks you to use
one pound less of wheat flour a week.
These are the reasons:
The wheat crop Of our allies is
short Our allies look to US to save
them from wheat famine. They
must have 220,000.O00 bushels from
the United States.
If famine comes. they can't fight.
Then we would have to carry on the
war alone.
We have only sS,oOo,O0o bushels Of
wheat more than we use each year.
This we can send them, but it isn't
sufficient. We can't send them corn
meal, for 1t doesn't keep in shipping.
We can't send them corn, for they
haven't the necessary mills to grind
it. Where must these 132.OO0,0OO
other bushels Of wheat come from?
From our savings--from you!
There are 10O.O00,O00 of US. using
an average Of five pounds of wheat
-four week per person.
If you, by the hundred million. use
only four pounds week-one pound
less-we can ship those 10000. 900
bushels of wheat. And your pound
lis easily saved:
BY having one wheatless meal a
day-more, If you can-eattng rye
bread corn bread, barley bread. and
other kinds, instead of wheat bread,
and by serving less pie and cake.
BY ordering your bread day in
advance; then the baker will not
bake too much and have it go stale.
BY cutting the loaf on the table as
each slice is needed; then none will
go stale.
BY making into buildings or toast
ing every crust or piece that does
go stale.
You are the guard over the SOL
dier's ration; he will attend to the
enemy.
