“RESERVED” SEATS.
The faithful but snippy freshman girl
waves her hand out over a considerable
expanse of bench and says: “These seats
•re reserved.”
This has been the occasional welcome
Oregon students have received when they
enter the University gymnasium to at
tend a basketball game.
To send some representative abend of
« considerable party to hold seats which
those coming late are not entitled, is not
democratic. While it may take nwu.v some
of the present usefulness of freshmen
in the University, the practice should be
abolished at once in the best, interests of
n campus which heretofore in tradition
and practice lias bad cause to be proud
of its democracy.
Although the Oregon teams have fin
ished the year as champions of the Pa
cific Const Conference, there are yet, to
be played on the local floor the games
In the state inter-scholastic basketball
series which will he participated in next
week-end by some seven or eight high
schools 'from over the state.
This should he a good opportunity to
correct the alien democracy of the re
served sent contingent. Where a student
ticket admits, Oregon women are seated
»<s I ng as the inadequate gymnasium fa
cilities permit—sometimes the men get
seats—but there are no privileged peo
ple, no "reserved seats.”
SHOW ’EM A GOOD TIME.
TTave you bought your fifty-rent sea
son ticket to the etute intersoholastie
basketball series to be played on the
campus next week end?
As a member of the student body of
the University you are pledged to give
support to this important event of the
basketball season. The proceeds of the
series go to the high school tennis com
pi tiling according to the distance they
Itave traveled to participate as repre
sentatives of their section of the state.
If the proceeds of the contests do not
give a reasonable amount of expense
money to the high school by os who 'istt
here, tin unfavorable impression of the
I’uiveraity will he the result.
It is early in the ticket sale campaign
hut the promise of expense money made
to the high schools must not be forgot
ten. This is the first state championship
aeries to be played at the University or
elsewhere In the state and it is import
ant that it is a success. I’lse it will lose
the principal ultimate benefit tha *o
tjuaintlng of the high schools with the op
portunities and conditions at Oregon to
the end that n greater and greater per
centage of high school students enter col
lege for higher education. It is one of
the duties of Oregon, to the state which
supports the University.
A CREDIT TO OREGON
Faculty members and others qualified
to judge declare the address to the jury
by L. L. Ray, ’10, the most impressive
they have heard In a court room. Mr.
Ray, as district attorney, was prosecutor
in the case of the State of Oregon
against James Fullerton, now convicted
of-libel against the University of Oregon,
While it is not the intention of The
Emerald to give space to a dead and un
justfied case, The Emerald does want to
give tribute to Mr. Ray. His ability as an
attorney and an orator makes his loyalty
i
and interest in his alma mater conspicu
ous among the alumni of the University.
OUR PRESIDENT.
The keen appreciation of the students
is expressed on every side at the most
generous gift of President and Mrs.
Campbell toward the women's building.
The gift not only brings the much de
sired building nearer, but assures the
students thst their efforts along this line
are backed by the head of the institution.
The many benefit affairs begin to look
worth while and with the campaign
launched in Eugene the prospects for a
women's building at Oregon in the near
future are bright. «
The need for, and advantages of this
building have been elaborated often and
the students who will reap the benefits
appreciate the generous action of Pres
ident and Mrs. Campbell.

MISSIOH! TALKS
OF CHINESE PEOPLE
Mrs. Mar,< Wheeler Says Life
of R!ch Woman is iot
A!: Joy.
Mrs. Mark II. Wheeler, a returned ■
missionary from China, was the speaker
at an interesting meeting at the Bunga
low Thursday afternoon at 5 o’clock.
Mrs. Wheeler, with her husband has been
stationed, for several years, in Kin Feng,
Wo, China, working among Chinese stu
dents, in connection with the Y. M. C.
A. Mr. Wheeler is at present in France
with the Chinese coolies, but after his
return they will go again to their prov
ince.
In her talk Mrs. Wheeler told of the
.interesting ways of the Chinese people,
especially of the women. She said, “It is
not at all or nice to be a rich woman
in Chinn ns one would imagine for they
are kept in almost total ignorance and
know less about what is going on around
them than most of our small children.
“In many cases our missionaries have
to take most ingenious ways to become
acquainted with the natives, but after a
way has once been opened it is not so dif
ficult. The province in which we wore
stationed was among the very last to be
opened to the foreigners and it was not
until very recently that work among
students could be started because of the
superstition of the classes.
“The work has been progressing won
derfully however since the building of a
largo hospital and any one who would
like practice in medicine or surgery
would certainly be welcomed. Not only
would he give service where needed but
in return would gain experience of many
cases which have never been known in
the United States. It is the custom for
the doctors to visit 275 ensos in the
morning and operate all afternoon.”
Mrs. Wheeler emphasised that to be a
missionary in such places was not a sac
rifice, for one received much more than
he gave through knowledge of the people
among whom he worked; and that more
and more people were beginning to real
ixe this and answer the call to the for
eign fields.
The Bungalow was gaily decorated
with flags of various nations and girls
dressed in native costumes of China, Ja
pan, India. Philippine Islands and Korea,
lent an interesting aspect to the talk.
An illustrated lecture on Japan was given
by Lois Lauphlin and a tea was served.
CLASSES TO GIVE LUNCH
Domestic Science Students Will Prepare
and Serve Meals.
Two practice luncheons will be given
by classes in domestic science next week

head of the department of home eco
nomics. The first one will bo given on
Tuesday by the class in food and nutri
tion and the second on Friday by the
class in food economics.
Both groups of girls will have guests ;
which will probably be chosen from the j
families of the girls, at these affairs, i
The luncheons are given ns practice work
for the girls and they prepare and serve
the meals, accoring to Miss Tingle.
