Their Loyalty and Ourfl **
There are many factors besides the personal effort and sacrifice
on the part of the individual students, concerned in the complete
success of student activities. Here in Eugene a feeling of loyalty
and pride on the part of the residents of the city and the county is
evidenced at every opportunity, for the achievements of the students
of the University. These same loyal residents have watched and kept
faith in the gradual growth and advancement of the University and"
their assistance then was even more essential than it is now.
Among the activities which have grown and been materially
aided in that growth by the assistance and faith of the citizens of
Eugene is the one in the school of journalism which has made possible
The Oregon Daily Emerald which greets the students each morning.
This publication could not be possible without the faith and confi
dence which the business men have displayed in it by their liberal
purchasing of advertising space in its columns. And just as they have
faith in the value to us of our daily publication and of our other
activivties, we must have a spirit of faith and loyalty for those who
make these things possible. They solicit our patronage on a fair and
square basis just as we have solicited their patronage on the same
grounds. They and we are essential to each other.
Where Individuality Is Concerned
Not so very long ago a prominent member of Oregon’s alumni
decried the fact that there was danger of losing some of the distinctive
traditions, which have endeared Oregon to him since he first entered
the institution to seek a higher education. He noted the attempt to
discard the campus luncheon and urged that every effort be made to
continue this democratic tradition and not to drop it at any cost.
“When it comes to the matter of dropping some of those good old
traditions which have made the name of Oregon distinctive, I am
pretty much of a standpatter,” he said. And the farseeiug students
into whose hands the keeping of these traditions are placed can only
appreciate such sentiments after they have conversed with members
of the alumni. There is more need for standpatters among some of
the students who are here now, else they, too, will have occasion for
regrets in the future,—regrets that Oregon with a false conception of
the march of progress had discarded its individuality.
“Every generation has its own Hamlet, and so for that has every
actor who has essayed the part. Nothing is more futile than to rum
mage back into memory for comparison, except to declare that the
current Hamlet is the greatest that ever was since Garrick, or Booth
or Irving. Walter Hampden stands in his own right as in
contestably the rentest of living American tragedians. His perform
ance of Hamlet last night at the Century proved that. It was as Shaw
would say, thoroughly ‘like Shakespeare’s play of the same name.’ ”
The above criticism of the work of Walter Hampden who comes
to Eugene the first of next week was written by Idwal Jones in a
San Francisco newpaper. Hampden’s signal success throughout the
world as an interpreter of Shakespeare means that something of
value will be offered all who attend the presentations here.
Perhaps you were not one of the many who shared the coffee and
doughnuts with the Salvation Army “over there,” but surely you
must have had a friend or relative who did. And the memory of what
that may have meant to him must surely warrant a contribution, that
the good work of this organization may go on at home as it did across
the water.

LAST SHOWING TONIGHT
OF COLORFUL GUILD PLAY
Very Effective Costumes Add Greatly
to Success of Company
Production
Shaw’s “Caesar and Cleopatra”
which has played two nights, and which
has been very successful, will be played
again tonight. The stage effects in
this play surpass anything which the
dramatiq department has ever done.
The settings are simple, but with the
soft lighting effects every possibility
in the settings is brought out and the
atmosphere is decidedly Egyptian.
The costumes have been worked out
to the smallest detail and many of the
costumes are very effective. It is
thought by many persons that this is
the cleverest production of the year
and it is of added interest because the
department has never produced any
thing like it before.
Charlotte Banfield as Cleopatra is
entirely delightful and Darrell Larsen
as Caesar does some exceptionally good
work. Margaret Nelson as Patateeta
plays a difficult role remarkably well.
KILPATRICK BACK FROM SOUTH
Earl Kilpatrick, director of the ex
tension division, has returned from a
four days trip to southern Oregon and
reports that the high school students
at Medford and Grants Pass, with
whom he came in touch, expressed great
satisfaction over the state high school
conference which was held on the cam
pus several weeks ago. They seemed to
think it was a great success and are
looking forward to another conference
next year, Mr. Kilpatrick stated.
