A NOTEWORTHY CAKEEU The resignation of Judge from) the board of regents of the state university closes a noteworthy career of twenty -eight years of faithful and ef. ficient service, not only for .that the whole state of Oregon as well. During Judge Hamilton's incumbency the university has reflected in the greatest de gree the progress of the state itself, and this flattering rec ord is the best tribute to the constant and conscientious work of the retiring regent. When Judge Hamilton became a mem ber of the board of regents the university was lodged in but two or three buildings. Its faculty consisted of only a score or more professors. Its student body numbered only a few hundred. lie has seen the institution grow from this to a university of 3200 students at Eugene and 225 more in Portland, with a faculty of more than 200. Us campus now has nearly 30 buildings and still there is not room enough for -the demands upon them. Much of this growth has taken place while Judge Hamilton has been president of the board. As leader of this group of citizens who serve without pay, he has guided the university ably and well, and now as he retires he receives the warmest praise from his associates, and from hundreds of friends throughout the state. Con currently with his career as a university regent, Judge Ham ilton has served with eiual efficiency on the circuit bench of this county and neighboring counties. His fine record as a lawgiver is too well known to call for elaboration here. Suf fice to say that citizens within his jurisdiction, irrespective of political affiliation, while appreciating the loss entailed to the stale university, see in his retirement as regent com pliance'with the inexorable decree of advancing year that has its compensation in. the. fact Uiat.it spars Judge Hamil ton for continuance of service on the bench which he hag oc cupied so creditably for thirty ycars.i ' ( i r 1 -o- "' "' ' ADJECTIVES If you plan to write aiiMbing from a newspaper lirticle to a novel, you y.'iwld do well to consider -remarks made by the lato fe'enator Albcr J. jBoveri)go, whoso recent, "Abr.ir ham Lincoln" is hailed its' a masterpiece ot biography. Ecver idgc, pointing out that he used as few adjectives as possible, said: "Adjeutjves are like erptrgqucy rneriioinc'Hiid must bo given sparingly and seldom, with" strychnine and other pow erful stimulants. Adjectives often employed, mean little or nothing. They are drugs thai blur , vision in the reader and save the writer the toil of description. Great writers are not victims of the adjective habit." Plain, unadorned writing is always the most forceful. Thi is a good thing for everyone to remember, from cub reporter to historian. AS WO R LD ZY C.
