The deed of daring to which University students for years and years have aspired has been accomplished and yesterday, when the Oregon student body assembled in Villard hall to cele brate the greatest victory ever won by the lemon-yellow, the 0. A. C. “Iron Woman” stood on the platform. That alone was a cause for rejoicing, for many attempts to kidnap the Aggie sym bol from her fountain pedestal at the entrance to the Aggie cam pus have come to naught. Oregon’s victory was the more complete when, in the after noon, two representatives of the Corvallis student body arrived to open negotiations for the return of their “woman.” There was nothing but the best of feeling displayed at the meeting be tween them and officers of the University student body. The humor of the situation was equally evident to both sides and the visitors frankly admitted that Oregon had “slipped one over on thorn.” That the mass of 0. A. C. students should have been in dignant Monday morning when they found the statue gone and such slogans as “Fight ’em Oregon” painted on their campus is not more than natural. Neither are we to be surprised that many of them were in favor of immediately coming to Eugene to at tempt a “clean tip” and to recover their idol. Rut wiser heads controlled and the threatened invasion did not materialize. Today the “Iron Woman” was returned and the score called even. They had painted the “0” and we in retaliation had stolen the symbol which Aggie “rooks” have been made to kiss for years. The good spirit between the two institutions, which has been growing steadily stronger each year, remains unscarred. As it stands, the incident is a good joke well taken, but further activity of like nature on the part of students of either school may lead to very strained relations and serious consequences. Oregon and the Agriculaural college went through one fracus that ended in the severance of inter-collegiate relations between the two institutions and neither desires a repetition of that occuranee. To University students the incidents of the past few days are closed and any further activity of this kind directed against 0. A. C. will meet with marked disfavor. Let us forget it and they will do the same. MOVING PICTURES OF COLLEGE LIFE. Motion pictures dealing with college life invariably portray the college student in a way that antagonizes the public toward his species. For instance, the other day a movie, featuring a col lege scene, pictured the students as lounging about their rooms at midnight, playing loudly upon guitars, smoking villainous bull-dog pipes, and disturbing the calm air of the night with their boisterous drinking songs. They were dressed in a fash ion entirely foreign to the American university, and their actions might well have convinced the audience that they were looking at a scene in an asylum, had not a caption announced that this was life in Sapleigh University. The harm that such pictures do to the American university and college is known only to the college man himself. Wrong in almost every particular, these films tend to antagonize the public toward university life, they do much more harm than those un acquainted with the real situation imagine. Movie directors, always painfully correct in the portrayal of a murder or of a scene in the slums, might well take a day off and drop into any college town, see the students seriously engag ing in their class-work and in the varied worth-while activities, and then go back and show the public the truth and not what they imagine the truth to be from a casual perusal of Siwash Days.—Michigan Daily. m WILLJET TRIP Musicians Will Accompany the Team to Portland.

Hon Orput, '15, overflowing with the same amount of pep as always, was again a homecoming visitor this year, (in all of “Don’s" returns to the campus the crowd is never satisfied until he has led a few yells. Saturday he added to his usual program, hy leading a yell for the girls in the bleachers, as well ■is getting a hearty response from the men. “Pob" Bradshaw. ’14. at one time captain of Oregon's football and basket ball teams, visited f >r the week-end on the campus.

Eugene Loan and Savings BanK Established 1829. Eugene, Oregon One of the bad practices frequently resorted to by bank customers is post dating checks. Not having the money in the bank and being pressed for a bill the party draw's a check on the bank and dates it at a future date, obtaining a promise from the payee not to present it until the date en tered on the check. In some cases such checks are met when due, in others the draw'er does not obtain the money as expected, and is unable to make the deposit to meet it. The check is dis honored, and perhaps protested. The good name of the party drawing the check is hurt and what is worse the character of the party for financial integrity has deterior ated. All such make shift practices are bad if not actually dishonest, and are bound to meet with jn the long run. Never draw’ a check on a bank unless the funds are actually in the bank. Never postdate a check. It is a bad practice. See that all your dealings with your bank are ab solutely on the square. By so doing you are building up a reputation for integrity that will be of great value to you in after life. vwwwww%*v%*w%* : y f ? 4 ? ? y y $ ? y 4.
