PHONES: News Editor This Issue Margaret Scott Night Editor This Issue Arne Kae The Campus and the Billboard Opportunity for a little constructive criticism has been brought to our attention and we arc making the comment with the idea that a remedy is needed. We have long been proud of our campus, it is one of the most beautiful college campuses in America, but there is a disagreeable jar on the aesthetic sense of beauty when one looks out across the campus and is met with the unsightly bill boards, two of which grace the campus near the library. The third is in front of Deady Hall. Other campuses have their billboards, they are apparently a necessity. But there is a right way and a wrong way to handle the so-called “billboard nuisance” at Oregon. Each of these three un sightly broadsides, is smeared with paste and paint, all sizes and shapes of announcement cards, even to notebook sheets, are scat- ' tered over them. Then if you stroll over towards the Ad building, one of the most! beautiful on the campus, you will note the unsightly bulletin boards staring at you on both sides of the entrance. These unsightly boards should be removed. *As an improvement over such a system the Emerald suggests the use of a number of small uniform bulletin boards which might be placed to the side of; the pathway at the entrance to each building. A neatly constructed bulletin board with uniform notices on it, placed in front of the j library and used for all announcements, might be sufficient. A glance about the campus will soon assure you that Oregon is apparently facing the “billboard nuisance.” Isn’t there a better I way ? Department Moved to Forme Music Building New otjuipmoiit, new organization and bettor facilities fur work, whiol are possible in the new quarters of tin home economies department, will briuj about expansion and improvement, sayi Miss Lilian Tingle, its head. “The opportunity is given the depart meat for the first time in four years,' Miss Tingle said, “of offering not only a type of course, but a type of genera service to the University which T fee the household arts department ought to offer, hut which has hitherto been impossible. The department will offer as well as courses in general home making, certain forms of campus service impossible in the past.” Housing Now Adequate For the first time in four years, Miss Tingle says, the department is ade quately housed. The equipment has been largely extended, and many new courses have been added. Among these are courses planned to work in combiua tion with science, education, and sociology. One of the new courses, in which special cooperation with the sociology department has been planned, is a course in Food Preparation for Social Workers, which is designed to fit the needs of students interested in this work. This course. Miss Tingle said, is one capable of very interesting development. Miss Tingle will instruct the classes in food problems. Miss Hazel llauck. who was an instructor in the depart ment lust year, took special work last summer at the University of Washing ton, under Mrs. Virginia Patty and Miss Maude l’atehen, both well known authorities in home economic problems. Miss Hauck will have charge of the work in clothing. One course is being organized to include some work in elementary textiles and design as well as practical sewing and work in cloth ing economics. Work In Dietetics Miss Mattie Pattison, new member of the staff, will instruct some of the food classes and give instruction in connection with classes in home nurs ing and the care of children. Miss | Pattison's special work is that of the i dietican. The greater part of the first floor ; • f the old music building has been I . —m ——— entirely remodelled. The rooms for the lino of the cooking classes have been! attractively redecorated in pale yellow and white. The “unit kitchen”. system in the main cooking laboratory fur nishes several separate and distinct complete kitchens, so that the student cooks need not get in each other’s way. Several of the small rooms formerly used as practise rooms, on the second floor, will make a spacious sewing room when the partitions have been j torn out. BRODIE MINISTER TO SIAM ! Publisher and Diplomat Was Formerly - An Oregon Student The new minister to Siam, Edward E. ! Brodie, was formerly a student of the l niversitv of Oregon, and has returned to visit the campus once or twice every year.’ Mr. Brodie is publisher of the Oregon City Enterprise, and is a close friend of the faculty members of the j school of journalism. His recent appointment to the diplo- \ matic position ot minister to Siam bears out still further, the curious political tradition that this appointment belongs j to newspapermen of Oregon. One of I Mr. Brodie’s predecessors was William 11. Ilornibrook, formerly of the Albany Democrat. Mr. Ilornibrook was pre ceded by John Barrett of Portland, formerly on tin* staff id* the Oregonian.

This action was taken because it was impossible to get a jdace large enough to give a student body dance on that date, as the armory down town is to be used and President Campbell’s reception will be held in the Woman’s building on October 15. The dance will be held j in the Woman’s building. The detailed arrangements have not yet been made by the committee. » Wig ^\yo\ir If there is one blessing that belongs in the life of everyone it is flowers.
