THE EMERALD STAFF
An enlarged Emerald staff is an
nounced in this issue. This is but a
partial staff and is made up for the
most part of journalists who have had
one or more years’ experience on
the paper. The appointment of this
new number of writers does not mean
that there is now no chance to se
cure a position on the Emerald stuff.
There are yet a number of reporter’s
positions to fill and other appoint
ments will be made as soon as ap
plicants make known their ability by
test. Furthermore these new ap
pointments are tentative insomuch as
they will hold good only as long as
the new members keep up their work
in good style and live up to tho re
quirements made by tho Emerald
and its staff of oditors.
The Emerald demands a price from
all its workers. Staff membership
cannot be had without a demand for
loyal work and servitude on the part
of every one of its members. The
staff is liable to be changed several
times during the year. The tried
and true will remain while those who
are not willing to make the sacri
fices their positions bring will have
to eive wav to those who will.

To tlie people who arc now work
ini? for the Emerald and who are
not mentioned on this stall’ let us
advise you not to become discouraged.
Your efforts are being watched care
fully. Continued effort on your part
will bring weighty consideration for
appointment to the staff. It Is not
the brilliant writer that has the best
chance of securing an appointment.
Consistent effort, dependability, loyal
service, alertlies* and a willingness
to sacrifice other things for the Em
erald are the cardinal virtues taken
into consideration in appointing new
staff members.
PLEDGE DAY
Every student should attend assem
bly Thursday. It will be Oregon’s
annual pledge day and the ceremonies
are so significant of University of
Oregon ideals and spirit that no stu
dent should be absent.
Our University is one of the few
institutions of learning that have an
annual pledge day. it is a tradition
at Oregon and one of the many ex
pressions of Oregon ideals that have
developed the democracy and high
type of national and state patriotism
that exists on the campus.
While the meaning of the words
of our pledge are really deeply em
bedded in the mind of every stu
dent, nevertheless maybe the hurry
and scurry of college life have caus
ed some of us to forget the fact.
Attend the ceremonies by all means.
Repeat the pledge. It will make you
feel better.
The Emerald is always glad to re
ceive communications from its read
ers. If you have ideas on things you
would like to see the Emerald ex
press, tell us about them. The col
umns of the Emerald will always be
open to material which its readers
would. like to express through its
medium. Roses and stones will be
accepted alike. One requirement is
necessary, however, and that is that
the communications be signed by
the writer.
Write a letter tonight to some Ore
gon graduate or former student to
come “Home" to watch us “Win
Again." The alums really want to
jeome. They don’t need to be urged,
but we do want them to feel that
they will be welcome and a note
however short will accomplish this
; purpose. Tell them to remember
THE one important date of this term
—Homecoming, November 15.
Students who go to the library to
study can easily be distinguished
from those who go for company or
curiosity. The earnest students sit
facing the wall while the others sit
in a stragetic position facing the cen
ter aisle so that they can watch the
good looking girls and handsome men
go in and out.
Everybody thinks lhat the other
fellow is queer. Even friends with
whom we are well acquainted do
thingH In ways that to us are in
comprehensible. It all simmers down
to what the Quaker said to his
friend, to wit: “Everybody is crazy
except thee and me and even thee
art a little queer.”
Sometimes everything seems all
wrong in life. In such a mood most
people will agree with George Ber
nard Shaw when he says: “The long
er 1 live on this earth the more cer
tain 1 become that the other planets
use this world for a lunatic asylum.”
Why look on the dark side of life?
This may bo a very imperfect old
world but there is a good deal of
fun in it. The man who had been
knocked head over heels by a speed
ing auto had the right idea when he
picked himself up and said that he
was glad he hadn’t been run over
by a locomotive.—H.S.
GRAD WRITES MORTON
Ben Breeding Now Oil Salesman and
Accountant in Ohio
In a letter to Dean D. Walter Mor
ton, Hen H. Breeding, an old Univer
sity of Oregon man, tells of his work
as salesman for the Henry L. Doher
ty company of Toledo, Ohio, Besides
selling oil. Breeding is doing ac
counting on the side, which, he said,
added materially to his net income
at the end of the month.
Breeding said. "No matter what
they say about the Hast, it’s hard to
compare with the West.” lie also
went on to say that he preferred a
canoe or fishing pole any time to a
show or cabaret.
“And how is Oregon by now—I
imagine all is sailing along serenely
and ‘fall cases’ are becoming serious
enough to lower quli’.? grades —always
the same." is one of the interesting
paragraphs in Breeding's letter.
He was a Sigiua Ohi here.

Law Studes Called
To Settle Dispute
Caused by Auction
Heated arguments and redhot re
buttals will invade the dignified peace
and quiet of the law library on Wed
nesday evening, according to advance
reports of the second session of
moot court, which will convene at
that time. One Harrington is suing
Richardson for damages to the ex
tent of reimbursement for money
spent and time lost by the party of
the first part when he attempts to
purchase from said Richardson at an
“honest” auction sale an equine of
rare value.
Gloss and Burleigh will act as coun
sel for the appellant while Conrad
and Ingram will handle the respon
dent’s side of the argument. Ac
cording to the records and history
of the case, it would appear that said
Harrington bid on a certain highly
valued steed at an auction sale
wherein the aforesaid Richardson was
auctioneer. Harrington failed to get
the horse for the claimed reason that
the owner stepped in and overbid
(him a few paltry dollars just before
the auctioneer’s hammer fell for the
last time; whereupon the appellant
proclaimed a crooked deal and began
suit for damages for valuable time
and money spent in attempting to
secure the aforementioned horse.
McKay will occupy the exalted pos
ition of chief justice while Kingsley
and Wade will act as associate jus
tices. This is in all seriousness,
for, be it remembered, that this case
is before the supreme court—of moot
court.

TO expect to pay a high
price for talc perfumed
with an odor that cost
thousands of dollars to
produce would be natural.
But to be able, to obtain
such a superb perfume at
a low price is a delightful
surprise. This surprise
awaits you in the Talc
