Dr. E. S. Conklin returned this morning from Portland, whore he lec tured twice yesteday at the Y. M. C. A. auditorium. The lecture on “Phy sical Conditions for Mental Health,” was delivered at noon before a group of business men, and in the evening to a general audience. This is the first of a series of five similar lectures to be given by Dr. Conklin during the next fortnight in Portland. STUDENTS AT V. OF (). AMBITIOUS (Continued from First Page.) which the blacks were freed, so the extreme west must be looked to, to produce the men to right the condi tions which menace this union. And it is the college men and women who ' are being best fitted to do it. “To my mind,’ said Mr. Paddock, "a man should do the work out of which he can get the most fun. I don’t mean by tins light pleasures, but the real fun, which consists in making some one else happy. And to my mind the best way to make others happy and at the same time gain the most happiness for one’s self, is to go out and seek to uplift those less fortunate than ourselves. \Y. s. C. LEADS CONFLUENCE (Continued from first page.) five Northwest colleges competing in basketball, each team must meet the other for four games. So far in the series, Washington State has shown up exceptionally strong, they have weathered five contests, two of which were with the University of Wash ington, and still retain their percent age of 1,000. Except for the two games that tin' Washington \ggies slipped over on them, the University of Washington has won six games by decided scores. This leaves good prospects for a close race between these two institutions for the North west championship. Oregon Below Par. The work of the University of Ore eon players has been good, but hardly up to the standard of last year. The strong combination of old men has been broken up by “new blood,”— they have not had time enough to per fect their team work. Fenton and Bradshaw were hurt in the Washington State game last Thursday night, and according to re ports may not be back in the game for the remainder of the season. This would be an exceptionally hard blow at this time with half the schedule still to be played. Oregon Agricultural college has shown nothing startling. Idaho, an easy victim for the Oregon team on the home floor, beat them one game at Corvallis, and last night they were beaten by the University of Wash ington in the first game of their long trip. This year Idaho has been pretty closely followed by the “Jinx,”—grad uation last spring took many of their old men, and this season has meant the drafting of an almost entirely new team. PADDOCK DESCRIBES TENEMENT CONDITIONS (Continued from first page.) llis conclusion as fo our attitude toward these conditions was that, “The only fair thing to do is to be a bit. sympathetic, and resolve, that if we have any manhood in us, to make the conditions impossible.” In speaking of the social side of the people of the slums, the bishop said, “there is no legitimate place to go in the evenings. Not even a place to stand in the streets. Some idea is ' given one as to the crowded condi tions of the tenement district, when we consider that there are 1,000 peo ple to the acre, making (140,000 to the square mile, or the entire population of the State of Oregon on a square mile of New York soil. Among the activities of settlement house work are the establishing of nurseries, clubs, kindergartens, em ployment and vacation bureaus. In relating to his work in the slums. Bishop Paddock told the story of his tight with a “gang leader.” in the Bowery district, lie had a desire to I enter West Point after his rejuvena tion, but later gave that up and chose rather for his profession that of "sav ing the little kids,” like his brother of ten, who drank, smoked, and gambled. He went to school, college and sem inary, and he is now working in the same district of which he was once "gang leader." Karl Mart lotf presided at the meeting, and after the address by the bishop, President Campbell requested that all the eastern Oregon men re main and meet the bishop. Bishop Paddock met a number of the men of the University in Millard Hall, for private consultation and advice this afternoon. Boyer’s Dancing School Tuesdays, 7:30 to 9 P. M. Saturday, 2::3:0 to 5 P.
