nggufi tdi^of the Eme 1 Section Tuesday, by cour Emerald in the interest of the Alumni Asociation of the Uni versity of Oregon. The Emerald is sent without further charge to all Alumni whose dues for the current year are paid. All news and communications for this page should be addressed to the Secretary of the Alumni, University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon. President .John C. Veatch, ’0? Fenton Bldg., Portland. Secretary-Treasurer— Earl Kilpatrick, ’09, 1253 Ferry St., ^ Eugene. WE’RE GLAD WE CAME Thanks are due from the Alumni to the students who made Homecom ing Day such a pleasant occasion for returning graduates. This second Alumni Day brought back many more old students than did the similar oc casion a year ago, and those who were so pleasantly entertained will spread the word and promote a larg er attendance in 1915. President Tom Boyleii and all of his assistants de serve much credit for their efforts in taking care of the homecomers. ROOM FOR ALL ^ Former students of the University, whether they have taken degrees or not, are eligible to membership in the Alumni Association. Knowing that many of those who have spent a year or more at the University are as loyal in its support as any of the Alumni, the Association ruled at its last an nual meeting that anyone who has been in resident attendance for two semesters or longer shall be eligible to membership. Lack of funds for postage will prob ably prevent the Secretary from giv ing this information by letter to the thousands of former students scat tered throughout the coutry. Every Alumnus will do well to deliver to ev ery former student whom he may meet an invitation to become a mem ber of the Association.
