THE END OF THE HOAD
It is said the saddest word in an>
language is that which stands for fare
well.
We hope we shall not be accused of
mawkish sentimentality, but it is with
a lump in our throat that we sit down
to the old typewriter for the last time
to click out our own dirge. No one
could leave the task to which he has
given so much of his thought and ef
fort for nine months without feeling
the pain of parting.
We make neither claims nor apol
ogies. Last September, in our first
editorial, we stated this as our creed:
“We believe in the University of
Oregon; wo believe in her faculty; we
believe in her alumni; and, most of all,
we believe in her Student Body.”
Now, after nine months, we still
hold fast to our faith. If we have
wavered from it, it has been in deed
and not in intent.
At all times we have tried to serve
all three interests, and most always
they have harmonized. But when they
have seemed to clash and we have been
forced to a choice among them, that
choice has been to serve the interests
of the Student Body, because the Em
erald is a student publication. If this
were a faculty journal, we should run
it for the faculty, and if it were an
alumni paper we should be as zeal
ous for the alumni. But because the
Emerald is published by and for the
students, it should be a faithful mir
ror of what they do and think, of their
labors ami pleasures, of their hopes
and enthusiasms.
With this conception of our obli
gation before us, we have tried to re
alize the ambition which wo owned
at the start, "to present all the news
of the University in as interesting a
fashion as we may, and to stand for
progress in every activity in which
she is engaged.”
And, whatever our sins of commis
sion and omission, we can truthfully
say this; no one except the editor has
had any part in them. In the news col
umns, we have told what we believed
should be told; in the editorial col
umns we have said what we thought.
There is nothing left for us to say
ckcept to thank our readers gener
ally for their most kind indulgence
and the students especially for their
whole-hearted backing, and to wish
our successors as pleasant and adven
turous a journey as ours has been.
WHY NOT?
Suppose every student should go out
to his summer haunts firmly resolve;
to tow back one—just one—new stu
dent next fall. Multiply our presen'
population by two, and presto! om
dream of a Student Body of 1,500 i:
realized at one fell swoop. And tin
achievement is quite possible.
THE SCHOLARLY SFIRIT
The following colloquy which wi
overheard recently between two stu
dents is illustrative of the attitud
we are taught to take toward our
education:
( “Did you get anything out of that
> course you took last semester?”
r “Yes, an ‘M’.”
• “I meant, did you acquire any
. knowledge from it?”
“O.”
OVER THE FENCE
By Mandell Weiss.
_ The sons of great men are seldom
| great, but this rule bids fair to find
■ an exception in “Modest Dick” Cleve
i land, son of former President Grover
| Cleveland. The fame which young
Cleveland seems likely to achieve is
in a slightly different field than that
of his illustrious father though. He
holds the New England interscholas
tic record in the shot put, with a
heave of 47 feet 7 inches, and is be
ing regarded as most promising ma
terial by the football coaches at
Princeton, where he intends to enter
next year. I

A sort of straw vote that was taken
among the fraternity houses of Stan
ford in an effort to ascertain the at
titude of the students toward a return
to the American game of football
showed the students to be almost
unanimously in favor of the proposed
change. No official action has been
taken on the matter and so the yiews
of the faculty are largely a matter
of conjecture.

One by one the most famous of Eu
rope’s athletes are reported k|llec|
in action. Only recently R. W. Poul
ton, famous throughout the world as
the most brilliant forward that ever
played football under the Rugby
code, was killed in the fighting be
fore Ypres. It is these men who, in
the friendly battles of peace, stay
best the tide of rushing backs, return
most surely the whistling volleys of
a Davis Cup match, or lead the field
in the heart-breaking competition of
j the .Olympic games, that death finds
soonest in the game of war. Great
players are great fighters

\A!ma Mater in Verse
On Eve of Graduation, Fred A. Har
desty, Poetizes on Ideals of Col
lege Education
Oh Alma Mater, thou whose children
we art,
Light to those in darkness, teacher of
those who seek;
Be our guide when other guides have
failed us,
Be our helper in the time of our ne
cessity.
As high as human wisdom has ascend
ed,
Aid thy children to grasp thy eleva
tion.
Lead us in the pathway of right and
knowledge.
Encourage us to solve the problems of
the state—
Make us gentle, learned, worthy citi
zens
We love thee for thy benefit to man
kind, *
Moving “upward, working out the
beast.” Speed on
Oh Alma Mater Forever stand upon
the truth,
And shed thy beneficence upon all
mankind!
