Everyone who bus ever pone to college knows that no mutter how large an allowance a student 1ms, be nlwtays needs more money. But each student has a certain amount and each faces the question, For what is my money to be spent?? It nearly always seems impossible to make the amount available cover all the things deemed worth while to use it for. Right there is where the difficulty comes—to decide on the relative impor tance and desirability of the thousands ; of channels for money. A great many luxuries come in the guise of college ne cessities, but if we stop for one minute to think how a Russian student, in his eagerness for rm education lives in an unheated room during long, severe win ter months and subsists on an unbeliev ably small amount of poor food, it makes It easy to deckle that a number of the things before dubbed necessities tare in reality luxuries. la this war time when we are called upon to give up our luxuries that the boys over there may have their necessi ties, it will be nn easy matter to find revenue which before purchased deli cti ies which can be given to the war! •work fund. No student lias a right to refuse to give anything. And there is only occa sionally a student who acts as if lie i were in a class by himself. He is the one who reads his neighbor's Emerald and who approves of the V. M. t\ A. but does not feel moved to support it. Thank goodness, this sort of an individ ual is rare at Oregon! Our Economics professors teach that money is valuable onl.i for what it will buy. If it is boarded up it is worth no more than an equal amount of paper or metal. If it is invested in war work funds it can bring untold happiness and well being to stir boys in khaki and blue. Each one of the six organisations rep- i resented ii tiu? war drive are in a po sition to expend our money for us where <t will h rvuy these desirable results. The Liberty Tswns go to buy mttni flui.s for the l ow while the money from this drive goes t.» make them more eotn- ! for table in their quarters, to supply the touch of home which makes them more efficient as well as happier soldiers On the campus the faculty .» naked to five oue-half of , ue per cent of their j tiunual salaries t- this rinse tied it .» up to the students to maintain the re! Wive proportion in their gifts so that the j University of Oregon may meet her full quota. H. B. IN GOOD HANDS jt» the ejection today of Herald White las president of the student body to fill the unexpired term of Paul Spangler, the student body unquestionably voiced the sentiment of the student body and elected the man who would huve been elected had a regular election been pos sible at this time. White has been working hard for Or egon this year keeping the Oregon Spirit olive, and in doing so lias come in touch with all lines of campus activity. His ability and strength as a leader lias been proven in the student council and as stu- j dent manager of football. His general i interest in all phases of campus life has been shown in the numerous minor po sitions he has held. The only question to lie raised in a ! vote upon White is the fact that he has ! his application in for training carnp and , probably will not be at Oregon for more than another month. Hut this is com monly the case with finding in looking 1 over Oregon's big men this year. Ore gon needs White's leadership and it will i be worth while even if but for a short | period. In the meantime some other min who ' is to stny longin' may bo found for! White's position, if his resignation is forced because ,/f the O. T. C. appoint- 1 trient. Four men have now been elected i and three have presided as student body 1 presidents for this year. .Student 'affairs I are in good shape and the frequent changes seem to make no difference. Oo-operntion of the student body with the student body president is the prin cipal tiling gained in former years when a ni'in went to college for four years and, if president, served his full year. Oregon is sure to transfer this co-opera tion to White. NO TIME TO RELAX VIGILANCE The State Board of Health has re emphasized to the University of Oregon faculty hoiulth committee the ahsolut necessity of continued precautions against the influenza epidemic. Experience with the disease shows that the Spanish influ enza tends to flare up again after it seemingly has been eradicated. Physi cians say that persons who have had the disease go buck to regular routine duties before they are fully recovered and fail to keep up strict preventive mens'llrea against the influenza, with the result that a second epidemic is very likely to follow ten days or a eoupl of weeks after the first. The University health committee with Dean Louise Ehrruan lias asked that continued observance of the health rules ■ which wore made at the beginning of the i influenza epidemic, be carried out until i the ban is lifted. And the ban is by no ! means lifted at tin* present time. Only I the honest co-operation of every student iu keeping the spirit us well us the letter of the rules will prevent the possibility of the Influenza taking a second hold on the University of Oregon.

Over 200 in Previous Camps Apply for Admission in Different Branches. More than two hundred men of the first three Officers’ Training Camps 1 -ihrr have applied for admission or have i • en admitted to central officers’ train ing schools. Of the whole number 82 are already in the schools, working for commissions, and the others have just made application. Men of the camp who have applied for i ni ranee to Central Officers’ training S'hoois in infantry and machine gun were examined yesterday and today by Col nci W. H. C. Bowen, commanding officer of the S. A. T. C. here. The re'-ommenriations are made confidentially :dreet to the commanding officers of the training »;hools. Of the 250 men in the rump, all but about 10 will be recom mended to training schools. The number of men enrolled in the camp has decreased by about 20, owing to some of the men being ill and obliged to miss a week or two of the drill here. 23 For Artillery School.

Six Men From Bremerton Give Invaluable Service During Influenza Epidemic. The six students sent here from the training station at Bremerton to rom piete their premedie work before at tending the regular medical navy school, have given their full time to nursing in fluenza patients a*, the two men’s infirm aries on the eampus. They have been do ing t'ais work for the past three weeks and are attending no classes. Walter Bauman Paul Hamilton and Arthur Ritter are stationed at the Phi Gamma Delta house infirmary, while Harold Connelly, Max Wilkins and Boyd Haynes are giving their services at the old Phi Delta Theta house. These men are all graduate nurses and experienced .Vickies. They are special students and are not included with the fifty other men who are here on the campus for their apprentice work. Volunteer Work Appreciated. The volunteer service given by these sailor lads is typical of the work of a great number of persons in behalf of the Pniversity during the influenza epidemic. Townspeople have given and are still giving their time and services in caring j for the needs of the infirmary inmates, | as well as are the able students. It has j been through (he efforts of these work-j ers that the use of everything from au- j tomobiles to rocking chairs and bed j linen has been lent to the campus infirm aries for the comfort of the sick. With the Eugene schools closed, the teachers have fallen into service here on the campus. It is the teachers who practically kept the.ball rolling at the Pniversity health office in Deady hall until other help was finally obtained. Some of them even saved the day at the Phi Gamma Delta infirmary by doing the cooking there. “And dandy good cooks they are,” says Dr. .1. F. Bovard, who is chairman of the Pniversity health committee. Chairman Expresses Gratitude. Dr. Bovard w mts it made known that he- is deeply appreciative and grateful for every hit of assistance given during the influenza c" sis. He wishes to say , a good word to all the helpers, whether | they be Boy Scouts, teachers, students, f >wnsp< ople, private individuals, and es pecially to the gob-nurses. BARRACKS READY MONDAY Company A Reassigned to Squads Moving to New Quarters. for According to present plans, Company A. will begin to move into the new bar racks Monday morning. At Friday at-, ternoon drill the men of this company were reassigned to squads, and perma nent sergeants and corporals were ap pointed. The_ men nil! be quartered in their new home according to squads. All of Company A. could not be sent to the new barracks on account of lack of room, so about thirty were transferred from the Kappa Sigma house to the Del- i ta Tan house and heuceforth will belong to Company 1>. It was originally planned to have the I men move on Saturday, the second of ! November, but, because it is desired to dry the barracks out well, the heaters will be fired up for two days before the ; men move in.

ERNEST CROCKATT IN PUSH Professor’s Brother V/ounded in Arras Cambrai Drive. Ernest Crockatt, a brother of Peter Crockatt, instructor in economics in the University, was wounded in the big Ar ras-Cambrai cirive according to a letter received by Professor Crockatt. Mr. Crockatt, as a member of the 10th Ca nadian Machine Gun company went over the top and while leading the company through some newly raptured ground he was struck in the left shoulder by an explosive bullet. It is against interna tional law to use these bullets for they explode after they touch the body. lie said that “he kept on paying some hills.” At the time the letter was written Mr. Crockatt was in the 2nd Western Genera! hospital in Manchester, England. Mr. Crockatt is a graduate of the Pendleton high school and he attended the Spokane University a year and a half before enlisting in the Canadian army. Mr. Crockatt is a native of Scotland and as soon ns he is able to leave the hospi tal in Manchester he plans to visit his relatives in Glasgow, Scotland. Volunteer Day, Friday!
