THE OH EGAN A.
Through the post quarter, the moat
trying in the history of the University,
Oregon has maintained its fueulty to the
highest efficiency, continued in its high
place in the athletic life of the North
west by winning the championship in
football, and in every way lias kept the
University ami the Oregon Spirit from
decay up to this time.
Now the was is over and in January
the University is to go back on the old
pre-war basis with the academic work
and tho college* life on the same top
notch standard responsible for the de
velopment of Oregon into a great Uni
versity. Only one thing remains to tie
accomplished, one more test for the stu
dent body before Oregon passes out of
war-time conditions to resume her nor
ma! life. That is making tho Oregana
drive for 8(H) subscriptions a success
‘bat the Oregana may yet lie published
despite tlie decision to discontinue for
this year which was made earlier in the
.'all.
The Oregana most successfully jdc
* hires the life at Oregon and in addition
lo the value it is to the campus and to
Undents who wish to remember their
days at Oregon In later life, it is of
treat value in picturing the University
to now students to tho end that they
may sometime come to Oregon. The
Oregana, always a high class publication,
ts valuable to Oregon.
Uvcrv student at Oregon with the
Oregon Spirit feels that lie or she must
knvo an Oregana, and there can lie but
few even under the present trying con
ditions who have not caught this spirit
The Oregana campaigners should find
no difficulty in securing 800 pledges
from the much larger group of loyal Ore
goa students.

Down Aider Street
With Alice
By SinClairo Higlilow
Despite the fact thnt the end of the
war has brought about a situation where
the supply of officer-material exceeds
I be demand, some in the S, A. T. ('. still
show their qualities, and in emergencies,
tco.
When Military Police badges were new
on the campus six men of one of the
barracks forgot about the ruling barring
them from appearance on the campus
bt tween class hours. They straggled
across the campus between class hours.
They straggled across the campus on the
half hour or thereabouts when one saw
an M. P..
Then came a bright idea.
A squad with two blank files, the six
were just sufficient to make a skeleton
squad, was hurriedly formed and the
“corporal” marched them to the library.
The squad met the M. P. at the library
steps.
••Squads right, MARCH!”
“Squads for library work, fall ONT!”
It looked military enough and no pass
es were demanded.
Advantages and disadvantages of the
S A. T. ('. have been told but not all
of them. It appears from the words of a
6ong used recently by four girls in a sere
nade1 on Company A barracks that wo
men are preparing to take advantage
sometimes of the training the men are
receiving in doing "house work” to make
the barracks pass inspection.
The girl serenaders used an automo
bile with u top on il and could not he
identified. Therefore the words could not
he obtained later. Rut. to the tune of
“Keep Your Shades I town, Mary Ann,”
some of the hoys heard this:
Keep your shades down, soldier boy,
Keep your shades down, soldier hoy,
It was late last night by the pale moon
light,
I saw you, 1 saw you.
You were standing in your room
Practicing with a broom.
If you want to keep your secrets,
From your future joy,
Keep your shades (town. Soldier Hoy!”
It is not moral to bet on football games
h t it remained for a freshman in the
University this year to raise it to high
finance and claims an alibi.
The men in the S. A. T. C. have to
date received just .$17 for spending mon
ey since October I. So when lasr Satur
day came with Kugene high school
scheduled to meet Estacada for the state
championship on the Varsity field, what
was a fellow to do who needed the money
and who was morally certain who was
going to win.
A fresh solved the problem. Lieuten
ants get much more money than pri
vates in the !•>. A. T. C. and they made
personal loans to some of the men, no
tably on the occasion of the O, A. C.
trip, A request for a personal loan was
made just before the game, Saturday af
tern on. When asked for a reason for
the loan the freshman could not think
fast.
"How much will you need. $“.50the
benevolent “loot" asked after n time of
silence. “You can have more if you need
it."
“Well, IM take $5 if T could get it."
And now, if the lieutenant hasn't been
paid, he stauds a good chance,
Eugene won!

Rupert Martin, Ex-’18, Writes
Casually of Capture of
3,000 Huns.
Going over the top and walking back
with something like 3,000 German oi-ir
oners is given as n mere pastime n a
soldier's life hy Rupert H. Martin, :•
’18, a member of the field hospital sec
tion somewhere in France, in a recent
letter to Dean John Straub,
“We went over the top again this
morning,” he said in the letter, ' gaining
our objective in four hours and sent
back 3,000 prisoner-', but we are still te
ing. We were on the Mihiel front fifty
days, rested seven days and have been
here ever since.” This he explains is an
unusual record for a division which has
been in France less than four months.
“There is nothing but desolation on
this front,” he goes on to say, “and
everything is constantly under shell fire.
Our engineers are using the stone from
the demolished houses in the villages to
make roads, and some of them do not
need much breaking up. Every village,
road arid even the hospitals are being
-shelled. A direct bit on one of the hos
pitals a day ago killed an officer and five
enlisted men. Our ambulance companies
have lost men and ambulances. Hut we
have them on the run now and will not
stop until they hnve paid in blood and are
willing to pay in money for all the deso
lation they have caused.”
Mr. Martin expressed bis intention of
returning to the University after the
war. “It is my intention,” he writes, “and
nothing will prevent me from returning
and finishing my course there but a Ger
man shell. Tell Professor Gloran that lie
will have me to contend with in his
French class and that he had better
brush up a bit, for I might be able to
call him if he should make a mistake.”
Mr. Martin spent two years on the
< (regon campus, He is from Oklahoma

“Have u Heart,” musical comedy le
luxe, which scored so surely last winter,
is coming tomorrow night to the Eugeni
theatre. It is the offering of Henry W.
Savage, and that is guarantee of the
highest duality, for whatever he stages,
whether musical or dramatic, is with an
tistic understanding and lavish liberality.
“Have a Heart" is by those immensely
popular producers of musical comedy
Huy Holton, I*. G. Wodehouse and Jer
ome Kern. They have not yet failed to
turn out coherent stories, snappy quips,
lilting lyrics and fascinating melodies.”
Creston Maddock. ex-’IS, arrived on
the campus las! night from Camp l’ike,
near Little Rock, Arkansas, where he
has been in the- officers’ training corps,
infantry division. He lias just received
bis discharge from the army and will en
