COLLEGE CLASSMATE
Landabury Back From Trip
With Middleton.
OREGON IS ADVERTISED
Noted Baritone Will Give
Slimmer Course Here.
“I never forgot that I was connected
Vfith the University and left a trail
Strewn with tales of Oregon greatness,”
said Dr. iohn J. Landsbury', dean of the
school of music, who has just completed
a tour of the Northwest with his old col
lege classmate, Arthur Middleton, Met
ropolitan baritone singer.
‘‘We had a splendid, successful trip,”
said the dean. “I’m rested—feel like a
different person —- and had a fine time.”
Many interesting 'little incidents of
the trip were told.
As they were traveling along through
Idaho, he said, one of them, looking out
of the window, remarked, “That looks
like Indianola mud.” (Both Dean Lnnds
bnry and Middleton graduated from col
lege at Indianola, Iowa.) A man sitting
in front of them turned to I)r. Lands
bury on hearing the remark and said,
“Your name is Landsbury, isn’t it?” Th
dean admitted that it was, and found
that he had known the speaker in In
dianola. The man told Dr. Landsbury
that he had a son just about ready to
enter college and that he would probably
Come to the University of Oregon. *
Many Acquaintances Met.
At Spokane after their concert a ban
quet was given in their honor at which
14 of their old college acquaintances
were present. All along the line, the
dean' continued, he met persons that lie
had known in the middle west. “It all
goes to show that the cream of the mid
dle west has moved west,” he remarked.
The only train by whicn they could
lt*avo Pocatello, Idaho, in time to make
their evening engagement at Dillon,
Montana, left at 7:15 a. m. They left a
call with the hotel clerk, but as hotel
clerks sometimes do, he forgot to call
them. They woke at 7:10 and, without
collars or shirtN, rushed wildly for the
station only to arrive barclv in time to
see the train vanish in tee distance.
The dean said thnt he had aroused
Middleton’s interest in the high school
work being done in the state. Middleton
promised him material to show that
singers are for the most part the most
unmusical in the world, he continued.
This is to be used in a campaign to do
away with intensive voice training in
high schools.
“Master” Course Promised.
“Mid” as the dean calls him, has also
promised to give a concert in Eugene
next winter. It may be possible, accord
ing to Dr. Landsbury, to bring him here
next summer for a short course. He
would give a sort, of master class.
The cities included in the tour are
Pocatello, Dillon. Great Falls, Mont.,
Hpokane, Winatchee, Seattle, Lewiston,
Boise, La Grande aud Portland.

possibilities as to costumes,” said Mrs.
Beck. “They begin with the summer girl
and boy and run lwiek to the days of
pirates and philosophers, to say nothing
of royalty.| Modern business men are
not to be neglected and are typified by
an up-to-date real estate man and his

There’s Danger Ahead
For those who neglect the first symptoms
of eye strain—smarting, aching eyes, diz
ziness persistant headaches, etc.
Defective vision is the most frequent
cause of these ailments, not dangerous of
themselves but a warning that should be
heeded. Imperfect eyesight can usually be
relieved instantly by properly fitted glass
es if taken in time.
But apparently simple defects if, neglect
ed may lead to serious results necessitating
the wearing of complicated expensive
lenses or even causing blindness.
