the last time we were following ttm
doughboys who could not find the Ger

know we have all changed. You can see
how some of us have aged when we
come back.”
SOCIETY
Every day emphasizes more and more
the military aspect of the Oregon cam
pus so soon to be entirely released from
army bondage. S. A. T. C. uniforms
have been arriving during the week mak
ing the appearance of men in civilian
clothes a curiosity on the campus while
men in khaki and blue sport about in
all of fits and misfits. Dances now are
! strikingly attractive affairs with their
fiist and last semblage of war time re
galia. The opening of the new Y. M. C.
A. hut yesterday afternoon was cf a
decided military nature and the dance
for which the men of the Naval unit
were hosts last night savored in
every detail of navv life.
Much entertainment this week has cen
tered around Miss Louise Fitch, national
president of Delta Delta Delta who came
to Eugene Monday to be the house guest
of Miss Mary Perkins. Miss Fitch spent
last winter in France doing active Y. M.
I C. A. work there. Thursday afternoon
members of Delta Delta Delta entertain
ed with a delightful tea honoring their
national president and Wednesday eve
ning Gamma Phi Beta asked dinner
guests to meet Miss Fitch. She is spend
ing this week-end in Corvallis as the
guest of the Delta Delta Delta chapter
there.

Triple A, an organization of freshmen
women on the campus, is busily at work
preparing a number of Christmas pack

o’clock at the Kappa Alpha Theta house.
This tax was made to cover all expenses
made in preparing the Christmas pack
ages.
| “This is the first concrete evidence,”
said Dean Louise Ehrmann, “of the
Christmas spirit on the campus, but who
can doubt that Oregon will more than
ever feel the meaning of this deep
Christmas-tide and realize that it is
more blessed to give than to receive.”
The committees appointed by Miss
Clnrke are as follows:
Scrap book committee: Emma Gar
bade, chairman; Phebe Gage, Mary Mc
Arthur, Patty French, and Margaret
Russell.
Stocking Committee: Helen Carson,
