CHINA OPTIMISTIC
ABOUT RECBT
Letter Tells That Eastern Sit
uation No Worse Than
That in Europe
Although the political situation in
China is as bad or worse than the Am
erican papers tell, people in China are
very optimistic about the prospects of
recovery. This opinion was expressed
in a letter recently received by the
University Y. M. 0. A. from Ben H.
Schmidt, a former Oregon student.
Mr. Schmidt says that, judging from
what the papers tell about the European
troubles, China hasn’t done much worse.
“So don’t feel too sorry for old China;
she will have a house cleaning one of
these days that will surprise us all.
We have a lot of faith in the now
generation in China.” A contest held
not long ago, he went on, to name tho
twelve greatest mou in the land, result
ed in the choice of four Christians
among the twelve. This, considering
the comparatively small number of
Christians in tho country, holds a lot
of meaning, Mr. Schmidt believes.
The people outside of the sections
actually under lire apparently do not
worry much about the situation. Tho
general run go about as though ‘all
was quiet at tho capitol.’ Nevertheless
it does make a lot of difference, and the
militarists and bandits make life miser
able for a lot of tho population. And
nothing is done in a large way to help
the famine situation and to keep it
from taking its millions every year.
“The weather here is pretty cold just
now and we have to suffer a bit when
it is, as the houses are not built warm
and the stoves are inadequate to tho
job of heating part of tho outdoors.”
The Chinese, he writes, keep warm by
piling on a lot of clothing paddod with
cotton. As it gets colder additional
coats are put on, until the Chinese seem
about twice as large in winter as in
summer. The poorer people are* forced
to be satisfied with only cotton pad
ding. The wealthier class, however,
make their coats of the finest brocaded
silk, and line them with fur.
The children in these many layers
of garments are unique. "Many of
them are actually sewed into their
clothes from the time cold weather ap
pears until it gets warm again. If a
little kiddie falls down he usually has
to be picked up and put on his feet as
the heavy pudding makes it impossible
for him to get up alone.
Mr. Schmidt was for three years
prior to lift7 a student at the Univer
sity of Oregon. During this time he
was also in charge of the boys work
at the Eugene V. M. C. A. lie went
east in 1917 and graduated from the
Northwestern University Chicago. From
that time until 19-1 he was engaged
in various occupations until 1921 when
he went to China and entered the
school at Nanking to learn the Chinese
language, preparing for missionary
work in that country. Mrs. Schmidt
who was Mary (lillies before her mar
riage, was formerly secretary of tho
campus Y. M. 0. A.
ART STUDENTS WORKING
ON PANEL FOR MUSEUM
Avard Fairbanks Directs Task; Mem
ber in Portland Extension School
Is Designing Main Piece
A sculpture relief panel representing
nrt is being made for the new art mus
eum and will be placed above the door.
Four campus students are working on it
under the direction and supervision of
Avar I Fairbanks, professor of sculpture.
Kate Schaefer, a student in the extension
art school in Portland is working out the
central figure.
The composition will be five feet and
four inches by twenty-three inches.
“The figure of Truth is placed in the
center—the goal of art. as it is of all
human kind," said Professor Fairbanks.
Truth is enthroned with rays in the back
ground symbolizing glory and radiance.
The left side of the panel represents
the spiritual, or creative side of art,
Paul Walters is doing the masculine fig
ure and Pauline Chase the feminine fig
tire. The two unite in upholding the |
torch of knowledge.
The right side of the panel has a ma
terial symbolism, the mediums through
which art expresses itself—painting,
sculpture, architecture, and the handi
crafts. A seated figure holds in his left
hand an artist’s palette and in his right r
hand the mallet of the sculptor. At his
left is a capital, architectural symbol, 1
and at his right a sphinx head. Mildred 1
Heffron is modeling the seated figure. *
Over his shoulder leans a man with an {
hourglass in his hand, adding the element 1
of time to art—Alicia Agnew’s concep- (
tion. At their feet will be a vase and 1
some other representation of the crafts, t
The panel is the conception of a num- 1
ber of students, whose ideas Mr. Fair- '
baks worked over into a unit. Work on
it may be continued until spring.

THE co-ordination of commercial strength, arch
itecturai vision and engineering skill which
created this titanic quadruple office building repre
sents the motive and creative force which has turned
the eyes of the world toward this type of American
architecture.
This, the largest office building in the world, pos
sesses fundamentally magnificent largeness in its
conception, and a clean-cut directness in its execu
tion which place it among the most significant of
American buildings.
With such existing structural achievements no arch
itectural future is impossible, no project too vast
or too complex to come readily to our imagination.
Certainly modern invention—modem engineering
skill and organization, will prove more than equal
to the demands of the architecture of the future.
