Word Received at School That North
Central Association of Colleges
Accepts Membership of the
School Here.
PRESIDENT SAYS IT'S
BIGGEST HAPPEING YET
Puts Oklahoma College for Women
On Plane With Leading Schools
OF Nation; One of Few Wom-
ems Institution.

What is considered by President
&. w. Austin and faculty members
of the Oklahoma College for Women,
located here, to be the biggest thing
that has happened in the life of the
college, occurred yesterday afternoon
when President Austin received no.
tification that the o. c. w. has been
admitted to the North Central Asso-
citation Of Colleges and Universities.
1t is unusual for a college as
young as the OkIlhoma College for
Women to gain such recognition, it
is pointed out. This recognition
places the O. G. w. on an equal foot
ing with the leading colleges and
universities of the entire United
States as to the bachelor degrees
conferred, and gives the degrees
of the O. c. w. national recognition.
Plant is Expected.
at the direction of Dean Babcock
of Illinois university, DR.. Johnson of
Kansas university visited the school
here last week and inspected the
plant and conferred with the presi-
dent with regard to the faculty. AS
a result Of this visit, the application
Of the 0. c. w. for admittance to
the North Central conference was
approved at a meeting held in Chi
cago on March 1e the communica-
ton received yesterday stated.
This action gives the Oklahoma
College for Women the distinction
Of being one Of the very few mo-
mems colleges west of the Mississip-
pi river to gain this recognition.
End is Achieved.
1t comes as the elimination of six
years work on the part of the pres
ident. When G. w. Austin came
here six years ago to take the pres
idency of the college, his first eff
forts were directed toward getting
this recognition for the school.
In speaking of the matter Presi-
dent Austin said: Il realized that
in order ito hold our upper classmen,
we would have to be Of such stand
ing that our bachelor degrees would
be recognized. Otherwise. our col
lege course would hold the student
to the junior year, at which point
they would go to another school to
get a degree that would be recog-
nized.
81 made all other efforts lead up
to the major proposition of getting
the school recognized. The result is
that the Oklahoma College for Wn-
men degrees are now nationally rec
ognized'

ton yesterday afternoon, great Gel

PAPER MONEY.

nROBABLY the high cost of living is due to paper
money! initiation of the currency, than to any
one other cause-even more than to the void in the
worlds stocks of supplies The paper currency has in
creased from seven billion dollars in 1914 in thirty
tries to fifty billion in 1919 exclusive of the "a
billions issued by the Russian Bolshevist government
which has no gold backing At the same time the gold
reserve has increased from five billions in 1914 to seven
billions in 1919 The ratio of gold reserve to outstand
ing notes was 0per cent in 1914 and 1877 per cent in 1919
There is seven times as much paper money as there
at the outbreak of the Initiation has been the
greatest in the Central Powers where the gold reserve
has fallen to 327 million from 500 Million and the paper
currency increased from 1200 million to III Million
"a ratio Of IL gold to paper.
The Allies have increased their paper money from
1900 million in 1914 to 29600 million and their gold from
1853 million to 50 million the ratio of gold to notes de-
creasing from 76.6 per cent to III per cent.
Initiation did not stop with the but is continuing
at faster ratio since the Armisce was sgnedsome

legal tender do pass money in many business transac
ons World indebtedness has increased as fast as world

While paper currency has been multiplying and ma

declined dropping from AGO million year to $50 million

ABUSING THE INITIATIVE.

THE proposed initiative bill amending the constitution
to abolish the fish and game commission, and give
each county jurisdiction over its fish and game resources
is calculated to utterly demoralize and destroy all fish
and game propagation and protection in Oregon.
The bill emanates from few commercial fishermen
at Oregon City, who seek for selfish reasons few dol
lars more profit for few yearstO nullify all the con-
structve work of the past decade.
County control has been given fair trial IN Wash
ngton and proved fzze Depleted streams and absence
of game attest its failure The result would not be dt-
feren in Oregon The game farm would go by the board
Anglers and hunters would have the privilege of pay
ing separate license for each county they ed or hunt
ed in and that is all they would get for their money The
average county court interested only in keeping down
expenses and would have thirty different codes
for as many counties.
This measure is an abuse of the initiative and not
proper subject for constitutional amendment Ii every
dsgruned group of soreheads is to attempt to amend
the constitution with trivial legislation to satisfy gudges,
the constitution win soon become joke. In no way is
such measure entitled to consideration part of the
framework of the commonwealth.

yon remember that the more Cuffy
sniffed the less alarmed he had been.
But it was different with Mrs. Bear
The longer she stood there, with hei
nose twitching, and snufting up the
air, the more uneasy she became. Ana
pretty soon she saw something that
gave her a great start.
1t was something white that Mrs.
Bear saw, aad it hung over the tree
tons: and where the wind had caught
il it was spun out thin, like veil.
1t was exactly what Mrs. Bear had
feared-it was smokel The forest
was afire. And Mrs. Bear was very
much alarmed. She sent Cuffy and Sill
kie into the house, because she want
ed TO be sure that they wouldn't wan
der off into the woods, And then their
mother stood in the doorway and
watched. She was looking for Mr..
Bear. White she waited there the
smoke kept rising more and more until
there were great clouds of it; and at
last Mrs. Bear could see red flames
licking up the tops of the trees
Several deer came bounding past,
and a great number of rabbits ana
squirrels. And then followed other ami
mails that couldn't run so fast-sueh
as raccoons, and skunks, and wood
chucks. Not for years had Mrs. Bear
seen so many of the forest-people-
and they were all so frightened, ana
in such hurry TO get away from the
fire. that not one of them noticed Mrs,
Bear as she stood in her doorway.
'Where are they going, Mother?'
asked Cufiy Bear He had crept up
behind his mother and had been look
ing at the strange sight for some time.
They're going over to the lake on
| the other side of the mountain said
Mrs Bear.
| Are they going fishing?" CuffS
asked
! Mrs. Bear shook her head. And ther
Cuffy squeezed past her and saw wha
was happening.
"Oh-h, hurrah! hurrah!" he shout
ed.
| His mother looked at him in aston
ishment.
Its fathers bicthday!" he CRIED
You remember that Cuffys mothe
had told him that Mr.. Bear was horl
on the day of the great forest fire, an
that he never had birthday excep
when the woods caught fire agair
Now maybe father will bring HON
Ianother little pig for feast" Cuff
said hopefully.
