Obtains Many Noted Speakers
During Past Year.
PAPERS READ BY WOMEN
Comprehension of Industrial
Problems Is Aim.
In spite of the many things that are
interfering with the meetings of the
girls’ industrial forum meetings this
spring, enlarged plans are under way for
the eontinnance of the forum next year.
With 15 girls actively working and many
more who take less interest in the orga
nisation, a great deal has been accom
plished this year under the leadership of
Jessie Tood.
Miss Clara I. Taylor, field secretary
for the northwestern division of the Y.
W. C. A., has been a great inspiration
to the girls, Miss Tirza Hinsdale said
yesterday. Speakers of national reputa
tion have addressed various forum meet
ings throughout the year, and the girls
themselves prepare papers for discussion
on other occasions.
Graham Taylor, of Chicago, spoke be
fore the forum last Thursday on the sub
ject, “Woman's Industrial Problems,” ns
he. saw them in Chicago. J. O. Holt, of
the Rugene Fruit Growers’ Association,
Mlw? Mozelle Hair, secretary of the ex
tension division, and Mrs. George Bobler,
who was at one time industrial secretary
in Springfield, Illinois, have all given ad
dresses at forum meetings.
The girls’ industrial forum has for its
purpose the stimulation of interest in
women’s industrial problems among the
women of the University. Leaders of the
foilUm hope that the women trained in
prenent day conditions by the open dis
cussions and papers presented at the
meetings will go out into the world nt
graduation as industrial experts.
This is the first year that the north
west lias experimented with any associa
tions of this sort. At present there are
rpriuns at tne University of Washington:
arid at O. A. C\, but the one nt Oregon
ifi thf most active of the three. Its snc
W* is oeeasionerl. according to Miss
Dinsdale, by the fact that the girls most
active in the work have been in industry
themselves for some time.
Miss Taylor, at whose instigation the
forppi was formed, spent ton years
studying the problems of women in in
dijstry under the able tutorage of Or.
Tlfifis, of Chicago, and later spent two
^l&rs in Russia. She was one of the
few women in that country during the
war who had a government permit to in
spect factory conditions.
Some of the interesting papers pre
pared by forum members this year were
those on the wage question, and the co
operative and competitive plans of labor.

been claimed recently it is hoped that

Press Comlments Carried By
Literary Digest.
Truly symbolic of American ideals and
struggles, the ‘Tdaho Doughboy.” de
signed by Avard Fairbanks, professor of
sculpture in the University, is classed by
the Literary Digest in its latest issue as
representative of the memorial spirit in
this country.
According to the Idaho Statesman,
which the Digest quotes, ten counties in
Idaho have made arrangements to have
life-size models of this statue set in their
principal city.
Mr. Fairbanks has designed a number
of different settings for the memorial.
Several of his most charming designs
place the statue beside a fountain. In
one it is a part of a marble seat, a rest
ing place for the "Weary who wish a bit of
ideal inspiration on their way. In one
design it is an entrance to a park, a
memorial gateway. The topograjliy of
different counties has suggested differ
ent settings, so while every county will
have the same memorial, each setting
will be different.
Commenting on Mr. Fairbanks and his
work, the Statesman says:
“The art commission appointed by
Governor Davis to select a design ob
tained the services of Avard Fairbanks
for the work, for two reasons. First, on
account of his unu'sual talent, and, sec
ondly, because Idaho claims him as a
native son. At the age of thirteen he
obtained a scholarship in the Art Stu
dents’ League of New York and the fol
lowing year won another scholarship. At
fourteen he exhibited in the National
Academy of Design in New York, being
the youngest sculptor who had ever ex
hibited in that institution. Three years
later he was accepted without examina
tion to study in the Ecole Nationale des
Beaux Arts. Paris, and from that time
on he has won many honors.
“The committee, believing that a ultil
itarian memorial does not address itself
so directly to the emotions as does the
purely votive memorial, asked Fairbanks
to design a statue which should carry a 1
personal message of the deeds nobly
done and express the embodiment X the
desire to commemorate the ideals which
inspired the heroic deed.
“This he has done in his statue of
‘The Doughboy.’ a. figure which stands as
a type for all who took part in the great
struggle. This Yankee from Idaho stands
with jaw set. gun ready for action. With
head turned to study a new situation, he
comes forth from an old one on the
battle-front in which he is victorious, as
is shown by the defensive headgear of
the foe he carries.”
