The August Sale assortments will be based on the new low e
levels of the furniture market, bringing you the greatest dol-
lar-for-dollar value in ten years and more. Here in great vol-
ume you will find Suites for every room, Chairs, Lamps, Desks,
Rugs, Curtains, etc. Quality will be up to usual high Sanger
standards—the kind of furniture and furnishings that made
this institution famous years and years ago.
Never have we had the opportunity to present such good fur-
niture at such low prices.
Furniture and Furnishings from the finest makers have been
purchased by our experts for the August Sale, in some in-
stances at figures under the actual cost of, production—a con-
dition that cannot last long.
So, if you need furniture, make up your mind that the time to
buy it is during our August Sale, opening Monday, August 4.

Roosevelt Appointed 57 in
His 2 Terms in Office,
Wilson Named 47
By United Press, *
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.—Presi-
dent Hoover has appinted 20 com-
missions, but this method of arriv-
ing at the solution of federal prob-
lems have been invoked almost as
often by his predecessors during
this century.
President Roosevelt, from 1901
to 1909, named 22 commissions
and in his second term appointed
35. Taft named 32 commissions;
Wilson selected 47 in two terms;
Harding 13 in his abbreviated
term; and Coolidge 19 in six years.
Since Roosevelt, the presidents
and the congresses have named
492 boards, commissions, commit-
tees, joint committees, interna-
tional commissions, missions and
miscellaneous groups.
Many of these 492 groups are
still functioning.

EGGS DIPPED IN OIL
RETAIN THEIR WEIGHT
Experiments With Different Types
Made by U. S.
By Science Service.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1— Eggs
with oil-soaked shells may become
standard articles of commerce as
a result of a series of experiments
performed by T. L. Swenson and
H H. Mottern of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture, whose
preliminary announcement will be
in the forthcoming issue of the
technical journal Science.
They treated eggs with two dif-
ferent types of oil, both at ordi-
nary atmospheric pressure and in
a vacuum, and then kept them for
ten days at a temperature of 98
dergees Fahrenheit, weighing
them at regular Intervals to de-
termine the rate of shrinkage of
contents. It was found that un-
treated eggs lost about 13 per cent
of their total weight during the
ten-day period, eggs dipped in
mineral oil at atmospheric pres-
sure lost 2 per cent, while eggs
dipped In aluminum soap oil un-
der vacuum lost only one-half of
one per cent.
