student's study onrd, under the old meth
od of registration. It is especially neces
sary that particular care be taken to
l make out a class record card for every
course, in which the student enrolls,
since no enrollment can he effected :n
] any course unless the instructor receives
■ such a record card from the adminis
f tration offices.
I
Fees Need Not Be Paid
After the required cards have been
made out at the advisor’s office, the
student will take the original registra
tion card and the class record cards to
j the cashier’s window of the business of
| fices for filing, where payment of all
fees moy be made at the same time.
The registration fees need not be paid,
however, until registration day of the
second term. Wednesday', January 2.
Before filing their cards nil women stu- 1
dents will secure the signature of Dean j
Fox. on the registration card. A two
dollar fine for late registration, or late
payment of fees will be imposed.

.card, signed by the student's advisor,
without expense or other signatures, up j
to the closing hours of registration day i
of the second term. It is possible, ac- '
I cording 'to I>r. Caswell, of the physics
department, who has had charge of the
change in registration rules, that stu
| dents leaving stamped envelopes at the
registrnr’s ofiee, may obtain 'the record
of their term grades before returning. I
University announcements of courses, 1
similar to the usual catalog, are almost
ready to come from the printer, accord- '
ing 'to Dr. Caswell, and will contain
much of the necessary information re
garding prerequisites to courses and the
courses to be offeTed during the differ
ent terms. The regular schedule of
couses has not yet been sent to the
printer, and further delay in getting
some of the second term schedules or
ganized may mean the extending of the
limit for registration a day or two over
the time which has been set.
It is hoped that this will not be
necessary however, and that registration
may be concluded nest week, according
to Dr. Caswell.
FRESHMEN MUST MAKE
NINE HOURS NEXT TERM
Faculty Fixes Requirements Same as for
Othor Classes; Exams Start
Wednesday.
At ia meeting of the faculty last
Thursday afternoon, it was decided that
freshmen be required to make as many
hours as are required of the sopho
mores and upper-classmen. Teretofore
the freshmen have been required to
make but eight hours, in order to reg
ister for the following semester, but
now, with the adoption of the three
semester plan, this slight advantage has
been done away with, and the require
ments aTe the same for all.
In case there are students who do
not succeed in making nine hours, they
will be placed on formal probation, for
the term that follows, and if by the end
of this time they haven’t 17 hours to
their credit, they are dropped from
school.
The complete examination schedule has
not been made out, according to Dr.
IV. P. Boynton, but it is expected to
be soon. The only thing that is defin
itely known, is that the examinations
will start Wednesday morning. December
111. and end Fridliy, December 21. There
will be three examinations a day for the
first two days, and two the last day.
These are the heavier courses, only the
number of the various lighter courses
will be decided upon later.

He Should Worry.
The English barber was finishing
lathering a customer and was talking
volubly as usual.
‘‘Yes sir,” he said, “we have to mind
what we’re about here. Every time
we cut a customer’s face we are fined
a ‘tanner,’ and an ugly gash costs us
a ‘bob!’ ”
Then, picking up and brandishing n
razor, he added: “But I don’t care a
hang today; I’ve just won a pound.”

played in Eugene, two in Corvallis, and
two at Seattle. According to the sched
ule Oregon’s first game will be played
at Corvallis, on January llith.
Tentative Schedule
The tentative schedule is as follow's:
January 11 and 12, Oregon v*. O. A. C.,
iat Corvallis; January IS and 19, Oregon
vs. O. A. C.. at Eugene; February IS
and 19. U. of O. vs. U. of W. at Eu
gene: February 28 and March 1, U. of
O. vS. U. of W.. at Seattle; February
8, U. of O. vs. W. S. C., at Eugene.
This schedule gives Oregon four games
with O. A. C\, four games with the
University of Washington, and one game
with W. S. C.
Present indications however, point to
a cancellation of the W. S. C. game, at
Eugene, on February 8. If this game
is cancelled, the O. A. C. vs. IT. of O.
games, scheduled for January 11 and 12,
will most likely be changed to February
8 and 9.
It is possible that the 1918 number
of University of Chicago Cap and
Gown may suspend publication this
year, because of the war. The board
of student organizations voted that
the Cap and Gown should be cut to haif
its usual size, and price, but the staff
found it impossible to do this. Cards
for the students to fill out are being
prepared, with the intention of having
the board reconsider its vote.

The Christmas Store of
REAL GIFTS
It has required effort, foresight and patience throughout the year to assemble our splendid stock of Christmas Jew
elry. But now we are proud to say that our efforts are rewarded and that we have the largest and best selected stock
in the history of this store. In most lines we have the largest selections to be found in the county, all good quality, with
moderate prices.
Think of This.
There are approximately two million soldiers in camps
throughout the United States who will be receiving and
sending letters, parcel post and express packages, which
will result in an immense additional volume for the postal
department. This means that you will have to send your
packages very soon if they are to arrive by Christmas.
Do Your Shopping Now.
If you want good service, shop now, and avoid the
usual Christmas rush. Examinations are only a little over
a week away—so buy those presents, while you have time
to be particular about selection. Don’t wait. Don’t put it
off any longer. Do it now!
We Have The Goods.
We cordially invite you to examine our stock. We are convinced you will not find more reasonable prices, or more
carefully choosen goods. And you may be sure that from the costliest jewelry down to the lowest priced article in the
house you’ll find here a touch of distinction and richness that is sure to be appreciated.
