SOCIETY Members of Oregon Alpha chapter of Pi Beta are hostesses for a dance given at the Hotel Osburn this even ing. Quantities of daffodils bright en the rooms and greeted the danc ers from small baskets from all parts of the rooms. Only the side lights were used and these have been dis guised into huge paper daffodils. Masses of greens form a background for the blossoms and wind around the pillars in the rooms.

DeCou, of the mathematics department of the Uni versity, has had an article on “The Three Term versus the Two Semester Plan, and the Summer Session,” pub lished in the February 28 issue of the School and Society magazine. Two questionnaires have been . eut' out, according to Professor DeCou in the article, one in December of 1918 and one in December, 1919. These were to determine the trend of the larger universitis in regard to the two systems, the term and the semes ter plans. A year ago, he said, two-thirds of the universities used the three term plan. They are about half and half now, he said, as most of the eastern schools have gone back to the sys- j terns used before the war. Accord- • ing to Professor DeCou’s article, most! of the eastern schools now use the | two semester plan, the western schools i the three-term plan, and the middle state universities are about evenly divided on the two.

WHITE OPENS FIVE ROOM MUSIC STUDIO IN CITY A course of musical instruction that is a little “different” has made its appearance in Eugene, and judg ing by the success with which it has started off, it will be very popular. Roy J. White, manager of the Wat erman Piano School of Oregon, is opening a five room studio at 917 Willamette street, over the Western Union Telegraph office. Mr. White has been in Eugene for two months, and already has a class of 52 stu dents, but it was not until within the past few days that he could secure a permanent location. The studio, when completed, promises to be most attractive. There will be five music rooms with sound proof partitions. Mr. White plans to open studios in a number of Oregon’s larger towns, but will make Eugene his headquar ters. The studios will be under his competent staff of instructors. For the past five years Mr. White has been with, the Waterman Piano School of Los Angeles and for the last year of his connection with the school he assisted Mr. Waterman in preparing text book of music for the students of the Waterman method. The method used by Mr. White is proving very popular with his stu dents in Eugene. So carefully has it been worked out that much of the wearisome repetition and monotony of the usual course of study mapped out for the piano student has been dispensed with, with the result that every lesson, from the very first one, is full of interest.—Adv.
