WANTS WOMAN’S BLDG AT U
Would Have University Women
Make Efficient House
Keepers
The local Eugene organization of Uni
versity Alumni was revived last Fall for
the purpose of assisting the University
forces in the campaign for the referred
appropriation. Two meetings were held
in the parlors of the Commercial club^
and a plan of action was outlined to se
cure a heavy favorable vote in Eugene.
The city was divided into precincts and
a competent leader placed at the head
of each. These precincts heads appointed
block committeemen to take charge of
every block. In this way every home in
the city was visited. So well was the
work done that a practically unanimous
vote was secured in Eugene and the bal
lot was by far the largest ever cast in
the city.
A line of activity undertaken by the
local branch of Oregon Alumni is car
ried on by a standing Publicity Commit
tee. The work of this committee is to
advertise the University throughout the
state by means of illustrated newspa
per articles. These articles, which have
been appearing in the Sunday Oregon
ian and other large newspapers, deal
with various phases of college activi
ties such as’student organizations, the
work being done by the Extension De
partment and other subjects of inter
est.
Entertains Mrs. Dunlway
The association has also taken a prom
inept place in the social life of the
University. Mrs. Abigail Scott Dunlway
was tin' guest of honor at a tea giv
en by the Local Alumnae in the tea
room of the Osburn llo'el early in the
fall, ltetween two and three hundred
women called during the afternoon to
pay their respects to the woman who
has endeared herself to Oregonians
through her untiring efforts in the cause
of the women of her state.
Encourages Womans Building
Besides identifying itself so actively
with the city and University social af
fairs, the local association is active in
its efforts toward the founding of a
Woman’s Building at the University and
has already given liberally toward the
fund contributed for that purpose. The
Woman’s building is badly needed at the
University and it is hoped by the united
efforts of the Oregon Alumnae all over
the state that it will be provided. The
State Association of Oregon Alumnae
looks forward to federating with the Na
tional Association of Collegiate Alum
nae, but as a Woman's building on the
campus is one of the requisites for
membership our local association is
not at present eligible,
1914 Officers
The officers of the Eugene branch of
Oregon Alumnae are: Mrs. Emily Bris
tol Potter, President; Miss Mabel Kuy
kendall, vice-president; Mrs. Bay Wood
ruf-Jenkins, Secretary - treasurer, and
Miss Edith Baker, corresponding secre
tary.

Thi' lilacs blossom at tlio door,,
Thi' early rose,
Whispers :i promise to her buds
And tlii'.v iini'loai'.
There is a perfume everywhere,
A liroatli of song.
A sense of solin' divine return
For waiting long.
\\ lio knows but some iniprisoned joy
From bondage breaks—
Some exiled and on,'banted hope
From dreams awake?

fashion they manage to keep about them
selves a home atmosphere. I
Dr. Trunk Mount of the class (A 1908

tal, probably the finest institution of its
kind in New York City. In such capacity
he has^the responsibility of the hospital
on his shoulders. He is held strictly ac
countable by the prominent physicians
connected with the hospital for the care
of the patients. That he has made good
is evidenced by his being offered an in
struetorshiip in the medical department of
Columbia University. He plans, however,
to return to Oregon and practice in Ore
gon City with his uncle Dr. Guy Mount
of the class of 1907 and a graduate of

ber.
Miss Mabel Cooper, 1907, is studying
library work in the New York City Lib
rary. She has so mastered the makeup
of this gigantic collection of books and
treasures of art, that she is found now
and then at the information desk. She will
return to her home in Independence for
the summer.
Ferdinand Struck, 1911, is earning his
master’s degree at Columbia University
lie has not decided whether to return
to Oregon or take a position in one of

Thy walls are gray, our Alma Mater.
The vines are green that up them creep.
Gray as the old, old waste of water,
Green as the graves where our sires now sleep.
Our father’s spirit, Alma Mater,
Survives in you, now they are gone,
Makes glad the heart of every daughter,
And strong the heart of every son.
