Students Give Ear Unto Prophet ® ® ® ® § Kezabam Uttereth Words of Wisdom @ ® ® Ancient Spirit of Oregon Prevaileth ] BY ALLEN CARNCKOSS. Now there was a certain man of Ore gon in those days, named Kezabam, who dwelt over against the hills in the land where the University had its beginning. And Kezaham was one of such who thirsted for knowledge, and he went forth to go to the University, and to the University he came. Four years he served and studied dili gently and went forth a man of wisdom, well favored by the people in the coun try round about. And 'behold, the spirit of Kezabam came mightily unto the students of Ore gon and each went among his fellows, not after the manner of the Pharisee who treadetli with averted nose, but with the joy of one who serveth his brethren ex ceeding much. And the fame of the University was noised through all the Innd. Now each year it was the custom of Kezabam to return to the University, and each year he saw that the spirit of Oregon was goodly withall. But. in the fortieth year of the Uni versity the anger of the king of the tribes of (iermany was kindled against America, of which Oregon is a part, and he said, Let there be war. And there was war, and the mighty men of valor who were strong and apt for battle went forth from the Uni versity and waged war exceedingly against the tribes of Germany and scat tered them extensively hence with ar tillery and divers slaughter weapons. But when the thunder of the captains and the shouting had died many of the valiantest came again no more upon the University. And a shadow was cast over Oregon and men served not with great spirit as was the custom beforetimes. Now in the second year of peace in the land, in the ninth month of the year, the doors of the University were opened yet again unto those who sought the paths of light and wisdom. And there came men from the east country and the north country and from the remote coasts of the earth, even fi'om Castoria and Prineville came there men, and the coining thereof was ex ceedingly simultaneous. And women from Bethmeow and Mis gah and the country which lieth around Portland came also, and their beauty was as the radiance of the morning. And Kezaibam came likewise, even un to the l Diversity. and the years of Kezabam were not numbered for multi tude and his whiskers were as the tail of the white horse which gocth forth to war. But his heart was mighty within him. and when he saw that the spirit of Ore- j gon was low, he rent his mantle and lifted up his voice and wailed with an exceedingly loud and bitter wail. And behold, the spirit of wisdom came mightily unto him. and lie smote himself upon the thigh and cried aloud, (Jo to. the spirit of Oregon will return even to the days of its youth. And forthwith he made speech unto every class, even unto the freshmen, ac cording to the language thereof, saying. Give ear. O ye chosen people, for this day ye go forth in vain pursuits and make the name of Oregon as nothing] worth. Is it that, the bride forgetteth her j wedding garment? Rem embe rest not the tomcat the alley which leadeth to his home? Yet ye have forgotten the high way of your fathers who were before you. Behold. I am Tradition. Beforetimes when I spake in council all /nen gave heed to the voice of my words. There fore, my (brethren, hearken to the plead ings of my lips and serve ye one another that the name of Oregon may be still more honored in the land. And when the students heal'd these things they said, one unto another, Be hold, the lips of >Keza<bam are filled with wisdom and understanding. Therefore we shall incline our ears attentively un to him and give heed to his counsel so that the name of Oregon shall prevail. And it was so.
