Y. M. C. A. PUNS SCHOOL
OF C15TIM PROBLEMS
Score of Classes to Meet
For Discussion
MANY COURSES OUTLINED
Work for Eight Weeks to Begin
Next Month
Every man in college should spend at
least one hour u week in the study of
Christian problems. This is the belief
upon which is founded the Y. M. C. A.
school, with its score of classes on
Christian problems, which will be held
free of charge at the Y hut and will
last for eight weeks, starting October
10-15.
The classes during the firHt term will
be discussion groups, for the most part,
led by upper classmen. Text books will
be used and the work carried on in
much the manner of regular school
work. Many students who are inter
ested in this type of work consider it
an excellent opportunity for advance-,
ment and the enrollment is expected to
be large.
Interesting Work Planned
Among the courses which will be
given are: “The Students’ Standard
of Action,” a practical discussion of
student problems. “The Manhood of
the Master,” discussion of the charac
ter of Christ, given in a plain practical
way, “The Social Principles of Jesus”
by Walter Rauschenbush, a considera
tion of the social and economic prob
lems of the day, “Masterpieces of Bible
Literature” by Bruce Giffen, student
pastor, consisting of lectures and dis
cussion.
In order to stimulate enrollment in
the courses a description of the work,
with a coupon for registration attached,
has been compiled, aid copies have
been printed and left at the administra
tion building and the Y. hut. They
may be obtained at either place by all
men who feel that the study of Christi
anity will be helpful and broadening
to them.
Importance Is Emphasized
A number of statements have boon
made concerning the Y. school. Several
of them follow:
“The need of the hour is—not more
factories or materials, not more rail
roads or steamships, not more armies
or navies—but rather more Christian
education.”—Roger Babson, Statistican.
“Perhaps the most neglected, and at
the same time, most important study
among university students is that of
biblical literature and Christian prin
ciples.”—President 1*. L. Compbell.
“The educated man is one whose
training is complete in evrv line, and
the man who neglects the religious
phase of his training is only half-edu
cated.” Lyle Bartholomew, President
of the Associated Students.
NEW RENT COLLECTION
Five Cents a Day to be Charged at
Library for Current Books

cate copies. The charge for the books
is •’ cents a day. The following books
sire now included in the rent collection:

i INDIAN BONES ADDED
TO GEOLOGY EXHIBITS
Collection of Relics Exhumed Near
Nehalem Gift to University
From Alex Harper
New students and visitors who
- browsed among the curios of the geo
! logy laboratories during the two days
of registration were surprised when
they saw a morgue-like table covered
| with bones, evidently human, a gift to
| the Universit' from AIo^x Harper, who
resides on ,\'eah-Kah Xie mountain,
| near Nehalem. Instructors in the
I geology department say brief informa
| tion written on the package in which
i the relics were forwarded to. the Uni
versity is to the effect that the bones
are remnants of some coastal Indians
who once inhabited the Pacific slope.
Professor Packard, acting head of
the geology department, in discussing
the probable age of the partly decom
posed relics spoke briefly of the burial
methods of the aborigines of the west
coast. The dead were buried with [
their personal belongings in tepees or j
bound to branches of trees.
Mr. Harper, discoverer of the bones, |
intimates they were found in a shell
bed built up by the Indians, who used
the place for a dumping ground. Dr. |
Packard believes the human bones in
all probability were not juried in the
1 shell beds, but that the dumping ground j
, had been made on an old Indian grave- |
yard.
COLLEGE STUDENTS MAN
VESSEL DURING VACATION
West Keats Sailed To Orient
With Novel Crew
Feature a cargo of college students
sailing westward from Portland to the
land of the little brown men. Irving
Huntington, major in commerce, who i
registered in the University last Tues j
day after spending two months of his j
summer vacation on the high seas and
in oriental ports, says that when his j
ship, the West Keats, arrived in Yoko
hama, Japan, in the early days of
August, the first news he heard after
landing was that his ship was filled
with college men.
Huntington explained that the false
rumor, which appeared as a news story
in many of the Yokohama papers was
probably due to the fact that nearly
half the crew of the S. S. West Keats
was made up of college students. Men
from O. A. C., Whitman, Oregon, and
from Washington colleges were listed
as deck hands and quartermasters.
The West. Keats on her return trip
from the Orient during the first part of
September set a new speed record for
boats of tin" Pacific Steamship com
pany, said Huntington. The trip back
to America was made in Id days and
one hour.
Tu relating the, experience of the col
lege students as deep sen salts, Hun
tington intimated that the bo’s’n
classified the entire group as a bunch
of “landlubbers.” The student intends
to visit the Orient again next year, but
hopes to travel as a passenger.
LAW SCHOOL SHOWS
SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE
Doan Hale Attributes Popularity To
Gift of Fenton Library
Made Last Year
The University law school shows an
increase of about L’u per cent in the
freshman classes this year and the pre
legaj group has increased from ,'1S to
dii. This increased interest in the law
school is attributed to the publicity
received from the Fenton l.aw Library
gift el' last year and the publication
| of the Law Review which was dis
tributed throughout the state this sum
mer, according to Dean \V. G. Hale.
The law school has extended opera
tions and is offering law courses for
non-professional groups to be given in
conjunction with the school of business
administration although open to other
students as electives. Instead of as
signing one member of the faculty to a
course in commercial law it has been
divided up into*Contracts, Sales, Bills
and Notes, and Unfair Trade, and as
signed to professors who have had
special preparation along those lines.
The Law of the Press is another new
course which will be of benefit to
journalism students particularly. Dean
Hale expects to take up the law of
libel, freedom of the press, and other
subjects which will be of value to stu
dents expecting to enter the newspaper
business.
The law school now occupies the en
tire Oregon building since the Exten
sion department moved to the old music
building. The Fenton Law library has
been partly shelved but about half of
the collection still remains on the floor.
New shelves have to be fixed before the
library is completed.
Three new professors have been added
to the Law faculty. Professor Justin
Miller and James A. Miller to take the
places of Professor W. C. Dalzell and
Thomas A. Larremore who resigned to
accept positions on the faculty of the
Tulane Law School in New Orleans.
Professor E. H. Decker has been added
which increases the faculty to five.
