SATURDAY, MAY 2, 1914.
UETIC’KNCFi IN I’OLITICS.
A new departure lias been taken
by the Emerald this year in attempt
ing to give the students a line on the
men and women whose names will be
presented as candidates for the vari
ous student body offices, before the
nominations actually take place. In
past years there has been a reticence
noticeable both on the part of the
student publication and on the part
of the office seekers themselves to
give Information on this point, a re
ticence only overcome after actual
nominations had taken place.
The Emerald believes that it is
only justice to the student voters
that the candidates should come out
into the open in order that an intel
ligent choice may be made on elec
tion day instead of the choice being
the result of snail judgment. A
week elapses between nominations
and elections, but that week is so
thoroughly taken up with the strenu
ous festivities of Junior week-end,
ami with recuperating after its or
deals that little or no intelligent in
vestigation may be made concerning
the relative merits of the men and
women who have been put up for
office.
The reluctance on the part of ap
plicants for elective student honors,
to avow their intentions, has to a
large extent been done away with if
the results of the eanvass made by
tlu“ Emerald are to be taken us unj
indication, but if those who have
openly declared their intentions, are
tlie full number who are harboring
ambitions, then it must be said that
the importauce of these offices, and
the necessity of the student body for
men and women to fill thorn has not
been properly appreciated.
Vice presidency of the student
body, the position as secretary, and
membership m the executive commit
tee are all important offices, but for
tlieh fast t o named no aspirant*
have been unearthed, while for the
executive committee. with two
chances for a place as member-at
large, only one candidate has pre
sented himself. Is this to be taken
as a negative manifestation of Or<v
gon Spirit?

On another page the Emerald is
printing a full list of the advertisers
in tills publication for the month of
April. The careful inspection of
these different dealers and firms is
asked of the students. These are the
business men who have made it pos
sible for the students to issue the
Emerald. Those whose names are
not to be found on this list are those
whose support would quickly put an
end to a student publication. Oregon
men and women will find a guide in
shopping in this list.

PHILANTHROPIST WOULD
HELP OREGON STUDENTS
Sell Maps Is “Brother’s” Ad
vice. He Tells of “Hard,
Bitter Fight”
The manager of the Emerald re
ceived a letter this morning from a
philanthropist of rare species. J. P.
Worker has a little scheme to assist
struggling college students and all
University people are cautioned to
read it over carefully, for Oregon is
a great market for maps. Because
the gentleman has asked three times
that this notice be published free of
charge the manager has consented
to do so, changing only the names.
Dear Sir and Brother:
To assist struggling, self reliant
students has been my chief ambition
ever since my college days, when I
had such a hard bitter, fight, to get
through college by my own efforts.
I am now employed by the J. P.
Haw-Haw Map Publishing Co., and
have begged them to let students
have their unique and beautiful $2
map of the world and the United
States, at the very low price of 36
cents fully prepaid, proveded, ten
are ordered at the time.
They have finally accepted to my
pleadings, but won’t prepay express
unless order is for ten maps or
more. This is truly an altruistic act
of theirs.
Ten maps cost student $3.60 pre
paid, Sell for $20, then buy 55 more
and sell for $110. then another sale
like this, and they go back to school
with $22 0 in their pockets from a
start of only $3.60. This great wall
map is something brand new, and
sells at sight, the many rich colors
make it irresistable, it will adorn
the home more than an oil painting.
Please insert the article below in
your paper without charge then
write your name on back of this
sheet-have it sent with first order
for maps, and I will send you one
at my own expense. I thank you sin
cerely for joining in this noble phil
anthrophy. All orders must come to
the firm of course. Very truly,
J. P. WORKER.
U. OF W. MAY LIMIT DATES
Student Hoard May Allow Organiza
tions But One a Year
University of Washington.—That
steps will be taken by the
new board of control to cut the uni
versity social calendar in half be
came known on the campus today.
Vice-President-elect Arthur Younger
Is sponsor for the proposal. The mat
ter will be brought before the stu
dent board and an offer made to the
faculty student affairs committee to
cooperate in limitiing the dates for
social functions for the different col
lege organizations to one a year. If
carried through—and from the at
titude of several members of the fac
ulty this morning it seemed likely
that, the student affairs committee
would favor the project—the new
rule would go into effect next col
lege year and would not cancel any
of the dates that the organizations
have made for this semester.
Registrar Tiffany reports that
numerous inquiries for information
eoncernig this year's summer school
are being received daily from inter
ested persons all over the state.
Two months ago the University
published a summer school bulletin
which is being sent out in response
to all inquiries for information. The
book describes in excellent detail
the nature of the courses offered
during the summer session'and is
liberally illustrated with pictures of
the University.
The summer school session is un
der the direction of Dr. Joseph
Schafer, of the Department of His
tory.

In the finals of the intercollegiate

that Sheldon injured his already
weak wrist. Sheldon grittily refused
to default, and played part of the
match with his left hand.

Are Extremely Promising.
“The roses here on ,the Oregon

this year,” said Frederick V. Hol

cultivation. “I have examined the
rose bushes all over the state, care
fully, and these on this campus are
the most healthy and promising that
I have seen. A good bush will nec
essarily have perfect blossoms, so
this campus will have its share of
those soon.”
