And an im pressive characteristic of the year book this time is its fitting dedi cation to George S. Turnbull, a member of the faculty of the school of journalism, whose untiring efforts have not only materially assisted in the excellency of the annual publication, but do likewise assist in the daily publication of The Emerald and of other student journal istic endeavors. “To a friend of all students, a teacher and a scholar, a worker whose toil is directed toward accuracy in knowledge and whose in fluence is an inspiration in the attainment of the ideals of the Uni versity,” needs no further interpretation. George Turnbull is all of these and more. Ilis willingness at all times to assist the students in the school of journalism in their individual efforts to attain the heights of success, carries on whether in or out of the class room. The respect and love which all hold for him is only partially exempli fied in this act of the editor of The Oregana in dedicating the year book to him. Beyond that, few acts could express the esteem which his friend ship has inspired among those who know him well. Would that The Emerald might also be .dedicated to George Stanley Turnbull. Mother’s Day Mother’s Day, bringing witli it all the recollections of the one we hold the dearest in our lives, finds Oregon students willing and eager to participate in the hospitality befitting the occasion. For those who cannot have their mothers with them on this day it affords fond mem ories, and to the others who are more fortunate, a supreme happiness. Mothers who are our guests this week end must fill the places of the mothers who could not come. Our respect for the visitors is in creased, if that be possible, by knowing this. All students and fac ulty alike extend with open arms the true Oregon hospitality and friendliness that they may participate alike with us in this grand occasion. LILAC BUSH IS WRECKED Large Branch Torn from Tree; Stealing of Campus Flowers Prevalent Someone 1ms torn a large branch from the lilac bush in front of Villard hall. The practice of tearing to pieces the plants unit shrubs on tho campus has become altogether too prevalent, according to the campus gardeners. Not very long ago the tulip bed in front of Mary Bpillcr hall was attacked by some vandal, who picked the choir est tulips and ruined the symmetry of the bed. The worst of the matter, according to I'onald K. Shepherd, the campus gardener, is that the people who attack the flowers and shrubs do the thing in such a ruthless manner. Instead of using a knife for cutting off the bios sums, they either pull the plant up, or twist and tear off the limbs, as was the case with the lilac bush. While not accusing anyone of these acts, the gardener declares that the terrorism committed on tho plants and shrubs is certainly inconsistent with his plans for keeping the campus beautiful. "When flowers are abundant on the eumpus we are glad to gi\o them to people who realty need them,” said Mr. Shepherd. For this reason ho be liovos the too frequent practice of stealing flowers from the campus is uncalled for. 1922 OREGANA (Continued from \*ge ene) would ring them into every word of the ('regime's dedication. "To a friend of all students, a teacher and a scholar, a worker whose toil is directed towurd ac euracy ia knowledge and whose influence is an inspiration in the attainment of the ideals of the University to (iKOlUiK 8TANLRY TURNBULL this fourteenth volume of the Oregano is dedictaod.” What is the purpose of an annualt one might ask. Its purpose is to pre serve the traditions, give an account of the year’s activities, and, above all, create a feeling of pride in the stu dent’s heart for the alma mater. If this purpose has been done artistically and in u good journalistic manner, then the annual has been, in the main, successful. Then the Orogana this year is a success, which is much more than can bo said for many past books. A criticism of this book which did not stop to analyze the pictures in the front would be stupid. A soft, color ful, mellow effect is gained by having the cuts made from ordinary instead Jet' glossy photographs. The idea was an excellent one and the purpose of the j editor is fully attained. I predict that I these pictures will elicit praise from the art department; yet the printers almost quit the job when they saw them. Line is not essential in a photograph, and the effect of those—mellow as the | fading evening—is tremendous. A col losal success. The drawings of the buildings around the campus which are printed on the brown insert pages are good enough to excite an advertising agency to calling the artist immediatly into their service. In fact, the art work through out the book is the best ever produced in a campus publication. One ot the things to be endured in an annual is the hackneyed junior write ups. Hut the students must see their names in print. The whole book gives evidence of original effort. Of course it isn’t en tirely original, for many things have previously been done. Hut such things as the border excite the writer to com plimentary adjectives. The pages with the house pictures and cuts are distinct achievements, typographically perfect and with plenty of white space, they present an unusually dignified appear ance, whereas in most annuals they look like newspaper advertisements. The feature section, with its trench ant wit, acrimonious flings at campus characters (of course Jimmy Gilbert and Timmy Oloran provide the stereo typed jokes), is perhaps one of the best part of the book. Don’t we all lose our money at the Co-opf Then w ho dosn't enjoy: “Half a cent, half a cent, hulf a cent higher, t'p goes the prices, God help the buyer.” And the final udmouitoiu: “You’re none so wise, and none so old, That cannot stand the good rasp berry.” It's clever, yet good natured. “Difficulty sets a high price ou| achievement,” as Stevenson says; but when the achievement is successful, then the price is worth it. The sense of beauty—a complete, satisfactory whole a full melodious richness, a consummate artistry, are the writer’s final impressions.

Wheelwright, a lumber merchant from Portland, is quite cor rect in saying before the student as sembly in Villard hall Thursday morn ing that he never heard a whisper of a republic, because for the time he was in India he had been under the influence of those English or American commercial firms with which he was concerned and was thus at a loss to understand the public opinion running among the natives. The national cry of a republic is not among foreigners and Anglo-Indians (i. e., of mixed blood) but among the natives, regard less of caste or creed. mere naa ueen more uuiu iuuu per sons arrested in Calcutta connected with the present nationalist movement during the kiBt three months, but still Mr. Wheelwright said in an interview that there is no disaffection in Cal cutta proper. On the other hand, if we accept the statement of Mr. Wheel wright, then evidently the government of India is not justified in arresting those persons. Mr. Wheelwright did not clear his statement that the English rule in India had been a success. If he meant that from the commercial point of view then nobody can deny that England has exploited India to her heart’s sat isfaction; but taking the other govern mental duties in the English rule had been a failuro and a blight on Chris tian civilization. The English had been ruling in India for about two centuries and within this time they could educate only five out of a hun dred in male population and one per cent in female population. Lack of art schools and other agricultural and commercial schools may be the benev olence of English rule in India to which Mr. Wheelwright refers. If the Philippine people could be educated 77 out of every 100 in 23 years by the American government, 1 see no reason why the East Indians could not have been educated to a hundred per cent in such a long time. India has never been invaded by the Mongols from China, if I remember correctly, and the object of Mohamme dan rule was not exploitation but to enrich her soil with the ever-increasing number of Mohammedan people. Mr. Wheelwright is not justified in saying that the issue is not that of native against British but Moslem against Christendom in India. The, fact is that the movement has beeu going on intensely for the last four years and during this time the native Christians have been giving hearty support to the movement led by the Hindus and Moslems together. The I'nited States cannto be led into foreign entanglements by any agita tion from outside, and the American people stand always for the right and' just cause. KAN SHI RAM.

The junior annual is now in the hands of the binders at Portland, and will be ready for delivery the latter part of the week. As a college liter ary product the annual will reflect great credit on the class of 1902 and especially on the able editorial staff. I It is the custom in California and eastern colleges to elect the editor-in chief and business manager a year in 1 advance of publishing. The editors I of the TJ. O. junior annual will testify 1 that such a plan should be carried out by their successors and the sophomore class has an excellent opportunity to begin early with their work We snp jgest that the sophomores select two ’ good men from their class, one for 1 editor-in-chief and another for busi ness manager, and let these select their own subordinates.

COME IN AND SEE THEM ALL Take It From The Air NOT only music, but news, speeches, messages of every sort, are today being picked out of the air. “How has this come about?” we ask. The new impetus given to radio development may be definitely associated with the development of the high power vacuum tube, for that made broadcasting possible. And the power tube originated from a piece of purely theoretical research, which had no connection with radio. When a scientist in the Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company found that electric current could be made to pass through the highest possible vacuum and could be varied according to fixed laws, he established the principle of the power tube and laid the foundation for the “tron” group of devices. These devices magnify the tiny telephone currents produced by the voice and supply them to the antenna, which broadcasts the messages. At the receiving end, smaller “trons”, in turn, magnify the otherwise imperceptible messages coming to them from the receiving antenna. Great accomplishments are not picked out of the air. Generally, as in this case, they grow from one man’s insatiable desire to find out the “how” of things. Scientific research discovers the facts. Practical applications follow in good time.
