DO WE WALK WORTHILY
Two years ago otir soldiers reached
European shores to fight for the leaven
of democracy and liberty.
Prince and pauper, poet and peas
ant, smith and artisan, law and
medicine girded their Joins to smother
autocracy’s forge.
Laboratory, classroom, workshop,
pulpit, and press brandished the saber
—arose dynamic for justice, for ideals,
and righteousness.
Twelve thousand college men walked
well to death and eternal reward—
“gave their last full measure of do
votion ” to purge humanity’s soul of
the scourge of the ages.
The Hun is defeated, our dead lie
in peace, our maimed are healing, our
men are returning -the wheels of in
dustry are moving unceasingly in pro
war pursuits.
We have taken up life's work with i
the ordeals of yesterday as a gigantic
panorama unravelling before us.
As college men and women let us
catechise ourselves whether or not we
are walking worthily of the idiyils
that our brothers bled fori
Have we bid selfishness a fond fare
well have integrity and fidelity shell
proof fortresses in the temples of our
bodies?
Are we daily X raying the souls of
our fellowmen for the good are we
blinding ourselves to the moat that
lies in our comrade’s eye?
Do the drum’s stern avowals find
expression in a kind word, a helping
hand to tlu fellows who walk by our
side on the campus?
Are we making certain that our own
Leslie Too re, who fell with the gill
hint ninety first division in the Ar
gonne, and (leorge (look, who made the
supreme sacrifice with the brave
Marines at (’liateau-Thierry, have not
died in vain?
I>o wo accept ttic admonition, the
challenge of the last few lines of that
immortal war poem, "la Flanders
Fields V'
“Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from falling hands we throw
Tne torch; be yours to hold it high,
If ye break faith with us who die.
We shall not sleep, though poppies
grow
In Flanders fields,
J. 8. 8.
IN APPRECIATION
If you were a member of an organize
tion that had worked unceasingly
month after month in the humdrum,
monotony of flute or trombone playing
to make possible a crack University
band, if you were a link in a unit that
turned out at every game ami rally, in
storm and sunshine, that appeared at
all public demonstrations that the stu
dent body was interested in; and wheu
the time came for your organization
to give a public concert you found the
place packed with students and friends,
wouldnt’ it make your heart swell with
pride to know that your efforts had
been appreciated, that your work had
not been in vain.
The University of Oregon band is
just such an organization, and on Fri
day evening at the Eugene armory they
deserve the support of every student on
the campus in their big concert and
dance.
Albert Perfect has worked untiring
ly to give the students a band that
would be a credit to the University.
His past successes are the best criter
ions of the splendid evening that he
will offer on Friday. The program will
consist of a concert in which selections
from all the best , masters will be in
cluded, followed by a dance with the
latest popular music in vogue.
Special Newspaper Conference
Issue; Erma Zimmerman
Editor This Time
Oregon Exchanges for April, the
newspaper magazine issued monthly by
the advanced idass of journalism, is
out this week and will be sent to the
different newspaper men of the state.
This issue contains a special article on
the Newspaper conference, which is to
be held at the University the last of
this week, explaining the plans and pur
poses of the meeting.
“How the Portland Telegram Pound
Itself,” by William J. Raymond, as
sistant managing editor of the Tele
gram, is an interesting article in this
issue explaining the policy adopted
which has won success for the Tele
gram. A few years ago this paper was
traveling! the rocky road but now the
Telegram has a straight course ahead
it seems.
The earliest phase of Oregon jour
nalism is given in an iuteresing inter
view with Harrison It. Kincaid, editor
and owner for 115 years of the Oregon
State Journal, established in 18(54, at
Eugene. Recalling personal recollec
tions of these early newspapers, some
published but every two weeks, this
vet ran newspaper man declares that
“nothing is as it was then.”
“Working the Hotel Beat” is a hu
morous little sketch, by Orton Good
win, formerly of the Oregonian, giving
the experience of a reporter on the
hotel beat, from cultivating the friend
ship of “Mr. Hotel Clerk” to inter
views with pioneers, visiting newspaper
men, or the occasional freak that visits
the hotel.
H. Ingalls, editor of the Corvallis
Gazette-Times, who will preside over
the Newspaper conference to be held
here this week, gives a brief resume of
his life and a description of himself,
in a rather humorous letter which lie
writes to “Dear Exchanges. ”
* All4 Over Oregon,” a ten-page sec
tion containing items concerning news
paper people of the state, and a little
section “Shear Stuff,” giving little
humorous lights from different news
papers, adil to the general interesting
make-up of the magazine.
Erma Zimmerman is editor of this
issue of Oregon Exchanges. Other mem
bers of the staff are Tracy Bvers, man
aging editor; Helen McDonald, circu
lation; Frances Bluroek, All Over Ore
gou; Elizabeth Aumiller, copy-reader,
and Adelaide Lake, proof reader.

Pupil of Mrs. TUacher Will Give Piano
Recital Wednesday Evening
Aurora Potter, pupil of Mrs. Thaeh
or, teacher of piano will appear in
recital next Wednesday evening, \pril
.'10, at 8:00 in the V. M. C. A. hut.
Miss Potter is a very talented player,
possessing great skill and wonderful
technique. She has always added
greatly to musical exeats.
Miss Potter’s program consists of
some most difficult selections requir
ing the greatest skill, poise, accuracy
and rhythm. Some of her numbers
will be “Pause” by Pebussy, a bril
liant, dashing composition in contrast
to some of Hack's preludes and Fugues
which are full of quiet repose and
dignity. Other numbers will be from
Chopin, Schumann, and Mendelssohn.
Curtiss Peterson, baritone, soloist of
the Mens’ Glee Club will sing several
selections.
Let’s shoot a game of pool.

good characterizations.

Well Known Law Major Falls Over
Milk Bottle; Arm in Sling

known law major, is carrying his left

who have contended that ho might have

warning he stepped on a cylindrical ob
ject, probably a milk bottle left by,
some freshmen, which started moving
in the same direction that he was go
ing, only faster. In an effort to save
himself he threw out his hand, which
came into cqntact with a table in the
inky blackness which prevailed. An
examination of the hand showed that
two bones had been broken, therefore

This is the story of Fred W. Pack

verasity cannot be questioned, for is
not the law incorruptable?
