DON’T FORGET TO WORK
So far the millage bill has been
heartily endorsed by a great many
organizations a,nd clubs throughout
the state. Oregon newspapers are
also giving assurance of their active
support. From the individual voter,
however, very little expression has
been heard. Yet it is the voter him
self who will decide the fate of the
measure in the end. While the sup
port of organizations is very helpful
it is largely as a guarantee only
that the bill is justified. By it we
are permitted to go freely into the
field and make known our case. But
we must put that case squarely be
fore the people of Oregon if we ex
pect to win.
Spring vacation, coming just as
the campaign opens, gives the stu
dents of the University an oppor
tunity to carry the desperate need
of the three institutions of higher
learning to every section of Oregon.
The work begun then will spread
till election time. But to do this
effectively every student must go out
prepared to work, and he must have
the facts of the case well in mind.
Friends of higher education in
Oregon are already working on the
campaign from many angles, but
none of them can cover the field
right now as can the students them
selves. Much printed matter is sent
out before every election, but a large
part of it is never examined by the
voters. The one sure way to make
certain a man knows about some
thing is to tell him. If every student
will take it upon himself to discuss
the millage bill at every opportunity
from now till election time he can be j
sure he has won many votes to the ■
cause
Remember to register as soon as
you go home. Then see that your
friends and members of your family ,
register. You are not asking any
favors of them. It is their duty as
well as their right. Do not forget
to talk the millage bill whenever op-|
portunity offers. Many people say
they always vote “no” on a bill upon
which they are not informed. Take
the responsibility upon yourself to'
see that your particular community
is informed. Do not be afraid to
work.
We do not realize how much the
loss of the millage bill would mean ’
to us because we have never con
sidered that it might fail. It must
not fail, but our only guarantee that
it will not is to work for it. Take
up the fight. It’s ours, and we will
see it through.
A college professor still makes 80
cents per day more than a first
class janitor. Still their professions
are quite similar. One kindles the
fires of heat, and the other the fires
of ambition.
If the most popular magazines and
periodicals aro sent to China In res
ponse to the recent request, the Chin
ese will all become movie actors or
Btrlkers.

MRS. J. THORBURN ROSS FAVORS
PROPOSED MILLAGE BILL
Visitor Declares Soldiers Deserve
Better Colleges—State Doing
Big 8ervlce to Men
Mrs. J. Thorbum Ross, prominent
member of the Oregon D. A. R., who
is visiting on the University campus
following her attendance at the an
nual state'conference of the organi
zation at Albany last week is very
much in favor of the passage of the
millage bill. “One of the most ap
propriate services the state can do
for the ex-service man is in voting
for the bill,” she said.
“Not only did the war preparations
make tremendous demands, on the
colleges, but few agencies rose to
meet the demands of the cause as did
the universities and colleges of the
country. But now,” she continued,
“these men are flocking back to
finish their education, and shall we
deny them the one great desire that
crystallized in their hearts “over
there’?”
All right-minded people rise
against the menace of the reds, she
said, and why should they not rise
to the support of the educational in
stitutions which are of far more
benefit than the reds could be a
menace?
Mrs. Ross, who attended the meet
ing of the Oregon Louis and Clark
chapter of the D. A. R. in Eugene
during her visit here, favors the I
formation of college units of women
eligible tq membership in the D. A.
R. organization, so that after gradu
ation they may carry the work into
the parts of the state where \here
is no such body already.
* Mrs. (toss, who was states historian
of the p. 4, R. for foar yearij, prac
tically began the work of gathferlnjj
the history of the organization m
Oregon, and now has collected ma
terial for a large book.

The Service of an Electrical ,
Research Laboratory
The research facilities of the General Electric Company
are an asset of typrld-wide importance, as recent war
work has so clearly demonstrated. Their advantages
in pursuits of peace made khem of inestimable value
in time of war.
A most interesting story tells of the devices evolved which sub
stantially aided in solving one of the most pressing problems of
the war—the submarine menace. Fanciful, but no les3 real, were
the results attained in radio communication which enabled an \
aviator to control ft fleet of flying battleships, and made possible
the sending, without a wire, history-making messages and orders
to ships at sea. Scarcely less important was the X-ray tube,
specially designed for field hospital use and a notable contribution to
the military surgical service. And many other products, for both com
batant and industrial use, did their full share in securing the victory.
In the laboratories are employed highly trained physicists, chemists,
metallurgists and engineers, some of whom are experts of inter
national reputation. These men are working not only to convert
the resources of Nature to be of service to man, but to increase
the usefulness* of electricity in every line of endeavor. Their
achievements benefit every individual wherever electricity is used.
Scientific research works hand in hand with the development of new
devices, more efficient apparatus and processes of manufacture. It
results in the discovery of better and more useful materials and ulti
mately in making happier and more livable the life of all mankind.
