To Our Guests The green lids are burned, the “O” is painted ,the canoe fete is over and the Junior prom. Another Junior Week-end has passed. Another group of Oregon’s guests will soon leave, tired after their three days of activities, and will soon be telling the folks at home about the good times on Ore gon’s campus. . In saying a word of farewell, and a cordial “come again’’ to you, our high school guests, we would like to remind you that “days at Oregon” are not all like those of Junior Week-end. This is merely our play time, and comeB only once a year. The men who participated in the track meet are the same men who are studying for a life in the legal profession, or in medicine, or in business, or in education. 1 The same men and women who decorated the canoes for the mill race fete, and the armory for the prom> are the men and women who will go out as Oregon’s grads to contribute to the achievements of our country in many lines. Oregon is not a school composed of students banded together for a good time. On the contrary, it is composed of about two thous and young men and women who are seeking for that which leads to a life more capable of service, to success with honor, and to the satis faction of worthwhile accomplishment—that thing so sought after, called “education.” So, high school guests, when you return to your homes, and hum little snatches of that song the quartet sang before the canoe fete began the other night,_“Oh those days at Oregon, they are the best of all,” just remember that Oregon does more than dance and play ball. Remember that Oregon’s students are making records for her wherever they go, that Oregon’s students are doing many worthwhile things, achieving names for themselves and their state. We are glad you have been with us at our play time. We will be happier still, if you choose some time to come back and find out what the real “days at Oregon” are like, by taking up your work in higher education with us. A Son of Han-Democrat By Margaret Skavlan . < workers elect the ablest men—the elders, while in Japan as yet only the rich men can vote. Wo men do not plnv an native part in poli ties, though they are occasionally elected to office. The secretary of the Canton assembly elected two years ago and still holding office, is s| woman. This is Mr. Lau’s ninth year in this country. He speaks English gracefully and with a slight accent. His slender figure in a vivid blue working smock is a striking figure in the drafting room, llis animated smile plays often over a sensitive face, smooth and pale brown in color. llis father is a merchant in Canton, nnd it is there that Fook Tai Lnu lived and graduated from a Chinese school. He joined the student army, and later came to this country for the adventure. He already had learned a little English from a brother who lives in Hongkong. He came to Seattle, went to California, then to Chicago, where he went to high school and decided to fit himself to become an engineer. He worked for a time in the Ford shipyards in Detroit, iirst hitting rivets, then transferred to drafting. He decided to take up arch itecture and spent his freshman vear in the University of Washington. “Expense was too high,” he said of that school, “at the same time no deni- ' ocratic spirit at all.” Then he heard about the work of Dean Ellis F. Law rence of the school of architecture and ! allied arts at Oregon, and decided to: come here. “He’s great!” he said en i tliusiastieally of the Dean. “He is a good scout, and a fine architect—there is no question about it." After he graduates Mr. Lau expects to work for some architect for a while, but ho is longing to go back to his own country. Ho has worked his entire way through school. “They need me, you know,” he said simply. “China needs every loyal son of Han.” The modern Chinese use the Han dy nasty of 1100 B. C. as an ideal. Then was the golden age of art, education and government, Mr. Lau said “Than too was the perfect man and perfect woman—the men averaged 6 feet and 8 inches. Women were sometimes gen erals.” “I am a socialist—the Chinese way,” said Mr. Lau. He said that the new generation of Chinese wore attempting to nationalize railroads and mining, limit the land holdings for the rich, have enforced education and everyone working six days a week. They will, however, leave the Republican form of government as it is. “We are not Bolshevicks,” he insisted. He told of a plan worked out by a rich man in Faryun, a suburb of Cantou. At three years of age the children are turned over to trained doctors and nurses and teachers of the village relieving the par ents, and making possible a better edu cated citizenship. “Every one in China loves art, and every one likes to scratch around and do his own gardens,” said Mr. Lau. He said that the Chinese enjoy fencing and archery after a poetry contest, and so are not one-sided. He is himself interested in the sports of ju jitsu j and boxing. The influence of the war is still felt in China. It has made the young peo ple want facts, and has upset religion. Christianity is spreading in China. The church to which Mr. Lau belongs n Canton is a united Church of Christ,! without denominations. “When will we have a church with no racial differences?” he asked. “1 don't know when we will have that, but 1 think it is coming.” The younger generation in China is different from the old. “Our ettiquette is different from here' we don't associate with people so easily,” he said, “but the younger gen eration is almost like here.” Comparing American girls with Chi-! nose he said that the American girls were more active, but seemed less prac tical, but agreed that one was as mys-; terious as the other.

Flagstones and Panels (Continued from page one) tor, architect and craftman for the four corners of the museum ceiling. “This Gentille Ladie Faire to see She broidereth Ye Tapestrie”—such touches of personality are found on the borders! of the stained glass windows designed) and painted by the class of Professor Alfred H. Schroff. The cutting and leading of the glass was done in Port land. The small windows about 13 inches square are being made—8 for the large door of the museum, and three for the small door leading to the court in a cloister effect. The windows represent the crafts, and have been designed as follows: Goldsmith, by Myrtle Joyner; Stone Cutter, by Mrs. Mary Fairfowl; Embroideress, by Edgar Bohlman; Prin ter, by Fook Tai Lau; Ship Carver, by Paul Walters; Potter, by Bee Morrow; Weaver, by E. K. Harkness; Tapestry Worker, by Mabel Johnson; Lace Mak er, by Mrs. Lydia Hodge; Glass Stainer by Clarence H. Irwin; Scribe, begun by Glenn McGonegal, but finished by the other students because of his absence this term. Realizing that fire may destroy thou sands of dollars worth of valuable col lections, as well as consume priceless articles that cannot be replaced, the mueum, 20 x48 feet has been made ab solutely fireproof. It will house gift and loan collections of art. With the limited allotment of $35, 000 to replace the old building, absolute simplicity of construction and type has been perforce maintained through out the new buildings. The architec ture of the new group is decidedly fun ctional in character, somewhat box-like, but with careful consideration given to mass and window spacing. It is on the whole consistent architecture, and de cidedly pleasing in effect. Aside from the museum, the new building houses the following: two lecture rooms, two offices, a cement room, one for basket ry and weaving, two studios, a easting room, a modeling room, a photographic dark room, a dye room, home decoration' room and a locker room. The new building includes complete equipment for the departments of sculp ture and normal arts, with the excep tion of the kilns, which will occupy the space north of the court where the boiler plant is now. With the erection of the new heat ing plant recently ordered by the board of regents the present plant will be turned into a testing laboratory which will serve the architectural options and the pre-engineers. The kilns for pot tery and stained glass will also be in stalled in this laboratory, and a sec tion will be devoted to museum build ing materials. An addition to the draft ing room and the construction of a new art library will be built over the present plant and will overlook the •ourtyard. The courtyard has already been sod led, and cobblestone walks laid out. ■ Mr. K. T. Mische, landscape architect of Portland', who has served often >n jury in connection with city plan1 uoblems of the school, has presented a dantation plan for the courtyard. The Roswell Dosch memorial will be in- \ ■tailed as originally intended on the | iorth side of the courtyard. The de ign for its pedestal is now being made. Due to the further work on the lib ary. which will some time house the .'amilla Leach Art library, and the ex ension of the drafting room, the dedi ■ation of the new additions will not | take place until next fall. At the end! of the term, however, there will be a dedication of the Dorlind Robinson art' collection—portraits, landscapes and ■ still life done in water colors, oils, and pastels by Regina Durlind Robinson, deceased daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Robinson of Jacksonville, Oregon. The promise of the school of archi tecture and allied arts with its new buildings is great. No students can cross the courtyard, simple and unos tentatious as it is, without being im pressed by the basic principle of unity upon which the school is founded. In terest is constantly being aroused in the sisterhood of the arts and the value of cooperation'. And the desire to exe cute will be constantly stimulated by groups working together on its decora tion. Theatres REAL THRILLS IN REX FILM Never equalled before excepting in a nightmare! The statement applies to perhaps the weirdest effect ever flashed on the screen, which is to be seen in Emory Johnson’s latest film effort, “Westbound Limited.” Imagine monster locomotive of a fast, trans continental passenger train bearing down upon you full tilt as you strain vainly to extricate yourself from your saddlehorse, which has caught a hoof in the tracks, broken an ankle and fal len in a helpless heap. These thrills await you in this picture. McINTYRE AND HEATH COMING Fresh from Broadway triumphs, Me Intyre and Heath come to the Heilig Wednesday with their new musical comedy “Red Pepper,” with exactly the same cast as seen for an entire thea trical year at the Shubert Theatre, New York. In sending the noted comedians du a tour of the principal cities, the Messrs. Shubert have provided theatre goers with a cast which is one hundred per cent Metropolitan. This fact in cludes the fifty charming girls who set New York’s beauty pace for an entire season. Get the Classified Ad habit.
