Eiutor Gcard: Why don't tho Portland
and Willamette valley papers urge upon the
R. R'. Co. the importance of issuing lay over
tickets to all persons passing tip uud down
the O. & C. road thus enabling them to see
this beautiful vulley? I came west OTer the
N. P. U. R., went direct to Tacuma, and be
ing disappointed in uot seeiug any farming
country on the sound, I was about to return
home by way of the O. it 0, A friend per
suaded me' to purchase a stop over ticket,
for which the Co. charged me $5 extra to
take the local train to Eugene City aud see
the Willamette valley by daylight.
I had beard much of Tacuma aud the
Sound, but had scarcely heard of the Wil
lamette valley aud thought it scarcely worth
while to waste a day on it, so you may imag
ine my surprise hen I found it tho most
beiiiiiifnl country it has ever beeu my good
fortune to ste. I am no longer disappointed
with the northwest. I niuvt go homo but
will return and bring a few friends with me,
and I assure you we will not go beyond the
Willamette. alley. Yours,

meeting by Misses Helen Osborne and Veiun
Adair.
Trof. Hawthorne was absout this week on
account of being summoned as ft witness in
an important lawsuit.
It will not be long now until the April
vacation; many studuuts will doubtless go
home then.
The social given lost Saturday evening at
the residence of Mr. Unburn by the Y. P. H,
C. E., was well atteuded by the studeutri.
During Prof. Johnson's absence last week
Miss Etta Levis heard one of tho classes.
Miss Levis makes a very proficient profess
or. The seniors are back this week looking
much refreshed after their week's vacation.
We hear some of the orations are completed i
which speaks well fur the enterprise of the
class.
At present six students formerly of the
University are in California. Three are
graduates, Messrs. Powell and Judkius, and
Miss McClung. The other three are Clara
Cogswell, Mary Potter and Benj. MoConnell.
In about ft week Miss Ida Patterson will

Mr. Woodworth found a new pun which
he propounded the other day to a fair senior.
" hy is a prudent man like a piuf" She
promptly replied, "Because it is hard to
to sit down upon." But that was not cor
rect. A prudent man is like a pin because
his head Keeps him from going too far.
We congratulate our worthy coutemporary
Mr. Waggoner, on his sudden elevation from
an ordinary Laurean to fill the important
office of Laurean editor. We know Mr.
Waggoner is equal to the emergency of bis
office, but we are sorry that lack of space
forbids us to warn Mr. Waggoner against the
perils that beset his path for the next ten
weeks.
Mr. Greenfield has decided taste for femi
nine vanities. The other day the reporter
saw him in the reading room studying vigor
ously while a huge hoop of silver hung from
his ear in a most coquettish fashiou. We
cannot help thinking how charming a pic
ture, had he only worn iu addition that
Mother Hubbard which used to be so be
coming a year or two ago. Charles L. Lock-
wood was equally charming aud similarly
bejewelled.
The committee appointed to choose a
speaker to address the societies next com
mencement have asked Hou, Rufus Mallory
of Portland to deliver the address. Mr.
Mallory is a prominent lawyer and able
speaker. It is a good selection. In select
ing Mr. Mallory they evidently had his ser
vice as a speaker in viow, for instead of ad
dressing the societies he may be called upon
to decide the great corporation dilllculty.
We believe it would be advisable to let Mr.
Mallory know the full particulars of the case
before asking him to accept the invitation to
address the societien.
In the Latin sentence "Apes sine rei;e esse
non possuut," bees are unable to be without
a king, the professor asked why the Romans
said king instead of queen as we say it now.
A oiry student unacquainted with the habits
of this iudustrious insect accounts for it iu
this way: In ancient times bees had both
kings aud queens but the gentler sex were
regarded as so Insignificant that the Ro
mans only mentioned the king of the bees
takinc no notice ot the oueen. uui at ine
present time things have become so changed,
people are much more enlightened. The
gentler sex rule the world so completely in
every respect that to-day people only men-
tiou the queen Ol ine oees paying uo uueu
lion whatever to the dethroned king, until
we are almost in doubt whether or not bees
have a king. From this theory this student
proceeded to state that the position of wo
man has greatly improved siuce the time of
the sue eut ilomsus. TUis is a new ana
otiginal argument to prove that among men
aud women as among ine oees women win
corns aneau.
Thepublio rhetoricals last Fi'idnv quite
exoeeded the expectations of those who were

and Etta Levis entertained with well chosen
solections. Mr. Hughes' ana flir. uronangu
displayed considerable oratorical anility.
While the Diiriesipie remiereu mr, mug
created much merriment. Mr. Lynn spoke
a piece which was not altogether patriotic,
yet it was in that style which excites emotion.
Mr. Waggoner acqitted himself with bis ao
onstoined credit. Messrs. Veazie and Mc
Coroack showed much careful tiaining by
the admiruble manner in which they de
claimed. Some of the visitors present were
Misses Hattie Fence, Etta Moore, Kate and
