The women are instructed from the Deans that there shall tie no guests for meals, that no one student outside of the household shall be, invited in for 1 be evening, posi tively that entertainment of any sort shall include only the household, ami finally that there shall lie no dancing oven among the members of the house hold. Since the object, of these rules is to utterly prevent spread of influenza, they should receive the students’ hearty co operation. But the students fail to un derstand the difference between the im portance of the Students and faculty keeping them. it 1ms been freely rumored about tlm campus that during the last three weeks while the Influenza ban was strictly “on” that select groups of (lie faculty indulged in social gatherings and danced on at least two occasions. We fail to «a,. the fine point of distinction between select groups of students or of faculty B0 far as the health rules are important. And wo wonder why the people who fay down these necessary rules and ex plain their vast Importance should he the ones to feel exempt so far as they are concerned HOUSEHOLD COURSE VALUABLE The University of Oregon not only is training soldiers for the regular tinny, lust t* trninlng the women students to “entry on" nt home in n practical way The department of llonsehohl Arts is not generally ooimeeted with war activities in the minds of most i f us. But at the University of Oregon this department, under (he direetion ot l'rotessor l.iliau 'Tingle, is directly affiliating its courses with the war work being glum on the c mi pus for women students. It has been only dtirim the post year that Or. goii has been aide to nil r complete work in Household Arts, and previous (o this time, women contemplating entering col lire found it ne>.-sniv to ■_ > to O. t ’. for this course unless they went out side of Oregon lor the work In the short tune that thi‘ University has been offering the work, the department has developed a thorough and efficient course, at first, with the aim of training v taarhora of Household Im or as homemakers, hut ns the need foe trained nm- s and nurses' aides grew out of the war. tho department has or gained courses in “Urmeiples of Nu.ri (mg f r the Nuts. s." ' T’otal and Nutt', (ion in Relation to the War.” ‘ Uood l'repaiatioii and Observation," and “Home Nureiug.” And Miss Tingle. aside from person illy directing the work given by her d mrtmeut. has takt-n active part in the rork being done by the eouynittee on hrift in the National Uouncil of U.iu ■atiini, of vvlitelt eoiutniltee she is a mem >er. In recognition of the work that iliss Tingle lies Keen doing in urising thrift and conservation and telling the practical methods of carrying out the government’s wishes in these regards, both through the press of Oregon and in addresses and lectures. Miss Tingle has been appointed vice president of the Na tional Council of Executive and Admin istrative Women in Education for the state of Oregon- These organizations have as their aim the promotion of thrift tend conservation and health sanitation ! with special reference to the war. With such organization and active participation in the constructive side of war work, the University of Oregon is able to offer complete and thorough training in practical and patriotic cours es ip Household Arts to llic women of Oregon.

This Clark had to decline because so many of his men were on the firing line'. Rob ert Prosser, ex-10, is in the same organ ization, which went from Allentown, I’n. Corporal F. Sprague Adam, ex-’2l. says that he would not take a great deal for his experience in the American forces overseas! “I’ve done my best to find an American soldier from the old web foot state but. 1 guess they are not in this pant of the country. Everything is strange here, and ail we have to do to got a good laugh out of the natives is to tiy to say something in French. The Amer ican soldiers have taught the natives a little English and we all just burst out laughing when a group of little French girls begin singing ‘Hail, hail, the .long’s All Here,’ and the older people call on. ‘Hello, boys.’ and ‘Hello, Ynnks.' with a very p culiar accent, and then laugh at us when all we can answer is “Oui, oui.’ ” Sergeant William K.

Conducting a five piece orchestra throughout the camps and hospitals of France has fallen to the lot of Charles Cr 'lier, ex Ms. Alpha Tan Otnego. French eoountry lasses have littl charm for Melvin Solve, MS. who writes that they are not of the music al comedy variety, and, as far as he can see. have few l't rsonsj graces.

Burleigh Cash, ’18, since entering , the army, has found it necessary to • change his name in order\to get his share j when the pay-roll comes around. Bur- 1 leigh was formerly civics and history in- ] struetor in the Eugene high school, but ! is now Alvin B. Cash, at Camp Meade, j Maryland, waiting to cross the Atlantic, • lie doesn’t like K.

Arthur Runquist, ex-TD, second lieu tenant iu field artillery, at the School of Eire, Fort Sill, Oklahoma, writes The Emerald that the class under his is made up entirely of generals, colonels, lieuten ant colonels and majors. He sujs, how ever, that there is a very democratic spirit among the officers at the school. “Their section marcher,” lie writes of this class, “is a brigadier general. Most of them have been just transferred from tin' cavalry and don’t know as much about artillery as the young 'shave tails.’ Done of them gut liis two stars the other day and he was sitting out in front of his barracks as happy as a child with a now plaything.” Kunquist says that this is his fourth camp since leaving school. “I still hope to get overseas,” he writes.
