The work will be largely of a prac tical nature. Lectures will be given in all the subjects offered, hut special em phasis will be placed in laboratory and held work of such a nature as to be of substantial aid to those who desire to tit themselves for a wider range of usefulness in forestry. The University library was moved, this week, from its former quarters on the third door of Morrill Hal, which it has occupied since the burning of the old Administration Building in 1903, to the new Administration Building where it will have splendid quarters in the library hall, on the second floor. Steel book cases have been installed and the furniture throughout is new and sub stantial. At present there are about 18,(XX) books in the library and a large addition of reference books will be added in the near future. '1 he Associated Miners held their first meeting last Thursday afternoon in the Mining building. Prof. J. S. DeLury, the head of the Department of Geology, gave an interesting lecture to the men and a successful meeting was enjoyed by all. On Friday evening, December 3rd, the class of 1911 gave the Annual Promen ade in the University Armory. The af fair was one of the prettiest of the sea son and pronounced highly enjoyable by all who attended. Misses Permeal French, Mae Caldwell and Henrietta Moore were patronesses. Book Review. The cleverest booklet that has come to our notice is by Rex Ham, a well known Oregon man, entitled “Sonnets C>f a College Kid," designed to show "How one poor guileless freshman dog, got near to things not in the cata logue ; bobed to a college queen, but couldn't till.” It has a distinctively Oreogn flavor. Ted Lister, manager of the Oregon Glee Club in 1905-6, is introducing it. The eight sonets which it contains are arranged artistically with an illustra tion accompanying each. Ham, in col lege was Ralph Bacon, and wrote the celebrated "Love Sonnets of a Pigger" for the 1907 Annual. Since leaving col lege lit has been engaged in literary work, writing some clever verse for the Boneville Magazine. The freshman in his present work, after the first round of misfortune bursts out with the complaint, “How do the Sigma Nus stay at the bat? What makes the Kappa Sigs stand in so pat, while Barbs hang round and spend but never win? He closes “Dear Freshies, list, a moral I would slip. If ever you would bag a Ph. D., don’t get your soul entangled with a she.” Y. M. C. A. Entertains The musical given by the University Y. M. C. A. at the Dormitory Friday evening was well enjoyed by about sixty men. The instrumental and vocal numbers were roundly applauded, and Secretary Brown made a hit in the readings he gave. After the program, refreshments, consisting of popcorn and apples were served and the time honored game of hot-hand was indulged in. The even ing ended with some old songs sung by all the fellows. Indiana has a totally blind student twenty-two years old, who will obtain a bachelor’s degree soon. He intends to become an author and is said to have a strong chance for a Rhodes scholar ship. All book stores can furnish you with Rex Ham’s “Sonnets of a College Kid” A sure cure for the blues.
