    TWO COLLEGE EDITORS
IN STATE LEGISLATURE
The Oregon Emerald Was For
merly The Oregon
o Weekly.
Two members of the State Legis
lature, one of them having been
twice elected speaker of the House of
representatives and a university pro
fessor, are represented in the list of
men who have acted as editors of
The Emerald, formerly The Oregon
Weekly.
Clifton N. McArthur, who is at
present practicing law in Portland,
was the first editor of The Oregon
Weekly, and was largely responsible
for its establishment in 1900. Mr.
McArthur, better known as “Pat,” is
now a state representative from
Multnomah county, and is being
mentioned as a candidate for con
gress from the Third district. Mr.
McArthur was elected speaker of the
House of Representatives in the 1913
session, and also during the session
of 1909. He served as secretary to
Governor Benson for a time. He is a
member of Sigma Nu Fraternity.
Allen Eaton, who is now serving
as representative from Lane county,
was the second editor of The Week
ly. Mr. Eaton was followed by
James H. Gilbert, who is now assist
ant professor of economics at the
university.
Among the editors who had charge
of The Weekly before its name was
changed to The Emerald in 1909 are
J. H. Templeton of football fame and
Thomas R. Townsend, who first re
moved advertising from the front
page. Townsend was also president
of the Student-Body while in col
lege.
When W. C. Nicnoias became ed
itor in 1909, The Oregon Weekly be- j
came The 'Emerald, and was issued
twice each week. The new name was
suggested by the poems of Joaquin
Miller, the late poet of the Sierras.
Mr. Miller formerly lived 'n Lane
county, and loved to call Oregon the
Emerald state.
Last year the size of me paper
was changed, and it wap,, for the first
time, issued three times a week.
Karl Onthank was editor and An
drew Collier, manager.

NOTED CELLO SOLOIST
WILL BE HERE TUESDAY
Frederick Preston Search to
Give Last Recital of
the Year.
Frederick Preston Search, the
noted cello soloist, will give a con
cert at the Presbyterian ’'church,
Pearl street, Tuesday evening, un
der the auspices of the University
School of Music.
This is Mr. Search’s first visit to
Eugene, although he gave a recital
in Portland two years ago. The Ore
gonian, in reporting the concert,
gave Mr. Search a great eulogy, hail
ing him as one of the greatest of
American cello players.
The Search concert will be the la*t 1
of a series of three recitals that has
been given by the School of Music \
this year. Madame Carreno, the
well-known pianist, was here in No- 1
vember, and Sybil Mac Dermid, the 1
prominent soprano, gave a recital
about three weeks ago. i
Prof. Ralph Lyman, the head of
the Music Department, says that the
concerts have not been a financial
success, principally because of con
flicts w’ith other attractions. “Al
though we have not come out well fi
nancially with the recitals given so
far,’’ said Prof. Lyman, “We are get
ting people interested in high-class
musical entertainment. Next year
there will be an added number of at- j
tractions, and the best talent avail
able will be secured.”
The prices for the Search concert
are 75 cents and $1.
ACKERSON IN LINE FOR
RHODES SCHOLARSHIP
Oregon Man, Successful in Re
cent Examinations, Is
° Eligible. °
(Archie H. Ross)
Luton Ackerson, ’16, 0ig the Oonly
Oregon man in line for the Cecil
Rhodes scholarship. He has passed '
the examination, although he was
not chosen to represent the state at 1
Oxford this year. Automatically, he
will be a contestant for the award .
until he reaches his 25 th year, un- J
less he is selected before that time, j
Along with Ackerson, Raphael
Geisler, ’12, of Baker, was a candi
date this year, but will have
reached the age limit before the next
award is made.
Oregon has been represented by
more Rhodes scholars in the English
school than any other school in the
state.
The award carries a scholarship
for three years, with a cash allow
ance of $1,500 a year. At Oxford
they have six months school each
year, and the rest of the time the
student may spend in travel if he
chooses.
“It is a very high honor to secure
a Rhodes scholarship,” said Dr.
Straub today. “I don’t understand
why more young men do not take the j
examinations. Some states have no |
representatives at all in Oxford.”
GIRLS’ FROLIC ON APRIL 4
Committees to Be Appointed Soon
Will Prepare for Event.
The Women’s League will hold its
April frolic on the 4th of April. Meta
Goldsmith has charge of the affair.
“As yet no definite arrangements
have been made,” she said, “but I
intend to appoint the committees im
mediately. A charge of 25 cents 1
will be made for spectators, and, as
last year, only women will be present.
There are to be no out-of-town
guests at the frolic except those who
have already been invited.”
At the meeting of the Women’s
League yesterday it was decided that
the stunts should be but five min
utes long and should contain as little
talking as possible.
Shorthand by Machine
Demonstrated Here
AT EUGENE BUSINESS
COLLEGE
You have read about the new
method of writing “shorthand,”
called “shorthand by machine.”
Now come to this school and
see a demonstration.
See what the Stenotype—the
machine that writes it—means to
young men and women who want
to get the right start in business.
as STENOTYPE r.v
The Fastest Writing Machine in the World
Stenotypists are getting belter salar
ies than the ordinary beginners in
stenography.
For Stenotypy is a perfect system of
plain English Spelling, with only the
silent letters dropped, and is written
legibly, accurately, and fast. Business
men want this accuracy and speed.
The Stenotype has but 22 keys and
writes at the rate of a word at a stroke.
These keys are stamped with plain al
phabet letters—the kind you learned
when you first went to school. None of
the characters of the usual shorthand
is employed.
Easy to Learn, ana
Interesting
Because of its simplicity, Stenotypy is
the easiest system to learn, to write and
to read, ever devised for fast writing.
Students attain unusual efficiency and
are thus in immediate demand in busi
ness. We help all graduated Stenotyp
ists get good positions.
Machine Way or
Hand Way?
So don’t enroll anywhere until you
have seen this machine, and have seen
our Stenotype students write on it. Let
us show you how easily you * yourself
can write on it. °
Decide after this trial jf you want to
enroll for “The Machine Way in Short
band”orthe“Hand Way." Weteachboth.
Your first steps in business are the
important steps. See that you don't go
wrong.
We are demonstrating the Stenotype
to new students daily. See what the
Stenotype will mean to you.
