We call it “the blues”; we say we are “low”; in general, we subject ourselves to a few hours—or possibly days_of mental misery, agonizing moments of self scrutiny and criticism. We attempt to exonerate ourselves and place the blame on others. We wait for the feeling to wear off. Sometimes it does, but more often it doesn’t. Perhaps the sun shines, or, if it has been warm, it rains. And we say that the change in the weather is what was needed. In reality it is a change in our selves we need—a stronger purpose, a renewed energy sufficient to carry us ahead, a bigger vision which will give us this strength and energy. , Sit by yourself out of doors a while. Look at the far-off horizon, listen to the ripple of a continuously-flowing stream, enjoy the chat ter of the birds high up in the trees, and then let your eyes wander to the shrubs and flowers far enough away from you so they appear per fect. Everything will be beautiful—inspiring. Of course around you there is soil—mud perhaps—; tiny ants chase over your shoes; worms appear from under the leaves; a fat slimy snail crawls slowly toward the rotting log on Which you are seated. But don’t look at them. Keep your larger vision and the tired, low feeling will soon disappear, —M. S. A Word of Commendation Since tfie Emerald lias felt free to criticise the plans for Junior Week-end, it is only fair that a word of appreciation and commenda tion be extended to the committee and to the class through the col umns of the paper. This year’s program was probably better ar ranged and more smoothly conducted than ever before, for which the general chairman and his subordinates should be given due credit. It is hoped that this year’s experiences may be placed at the hands of those responsible next year, and that the program can be made somewhat more simple. It is hoped that the type of preppers will continue to improve, and that the number of guests will be held down to reasonable limits. It is to the advantage of the University to reserve more time for the display of educational facilities. The Juniors have made the event a success and they deserve the commendation of the student body. OREGON GRAD IS ON WAY TO JUNGLES OE AFRICA Claire Holdredge Will Work in Diamond Mines Two Years Three weeks’ wait in Brussels lias lengthened the three months required to take him to an indefinite destination in the African jungle, Clair P. llold redge reports. Holdredge, an Oregon graduate, writes of his difficulties, to Ian Campbell, graduate student in geol ogy. Holdredge has obtained a posi tion in diamond mines in the heart of Africa, and will stay there two years. lie sailed from Brussels on duue 16, after lingering three weeks in Brussels when the boat on which he had booked passage was sold. Speaking ot the coining trip, Hold redge says: ” You should see the amount of baggage 1 have. There are Id pieces of personal baggage, including a bath tub, on easy chair and an iron hat box. 1 fancy 1 will make quite a procession going through too jungles. It will take at least la blacks to carry it all.” After sailing ”0 days from Brussels, Holdredge will reach the moiuh of the Congo, lie will then proceed un the river and land at Tshikopa within a month. Directions as to his final des filiation will then be given him. The language of the blacks has its bail points, he writes. “I am having a great time trying to learn enough of the native language to enable me to go through the Cingo. 1 have a small grammar containing a d 00-word vocabu lary, but if is pure memory work. There is no way of tying the words t> anything, since it is unlike any lan guage 1 have tried to study before. However all tense and declension is ignored, which makes it more simple.” Holdredge is optimistic about liking the country. Ho will not return to the United States before three years.

COMMUNICATIONS Letters to the Emerald from students and faculty members are welcomed, but nust be signed and worded concisely If it is desired, the writer’s name will be kept out of print. It must be understood that the editor reserves the rifcht to reject communications. TO A CERTAIN MR. LANE It is in black humility that I pencil to you this humble apology. I am wrong, sir. I have committed the un pardonable crime of standing on the side of the ignorant majority; of be lieving in such fol-de-rol as the fable terined “Spirit of Oregon”; of writing an editorial for poor old mangled Lem my concerning a student union build ing for the perpetuation of the mysti cal bunk and the preservation of the spirit of friendship that has ever been a part of this misguided institution. Forgive me. Only permit me to play the part of a second Aeschines, praising to the eth erial heights the oration of the great Demosthenes who defeated me. I was much amused by your subtle caption: “All Lemon. No Punch.” It was quite splendid, Mr. Lane. Do you know, I thought up a silly little one myself; viz: “A Punch at Some Lem ons”—meaning of course, those people who have soured of life in all its cop ious forms and idioscyncracies. It was utterly absurd, of course, and somewhat nasty; so I shall refrain from using it. “A pickling place for Oregon Spirit!” Really, who don’t you write for Lemon Punch? That was clever. With your assistance, and the aid of the first column in the Sunday Emerald, per haps the Limped Lenpn Punch can sneak out of its rut. You speak of the remarkable simil arity of my editorial to the late Liber ty Loan propaganda. Surely it was like it. Hotv can I help it? Don’t you know, that I am the man who used to write that stuff for old Uncle Samuel during “the late bellic delirium?” Meekly I suggest that the poor Liberty loan stuff did at least get the money. Of course that wasn’t its purpose, now was it. Mr. Lane? It is a shame to be as ignorant as I; but still I remain unconvinced. Per haps I ’ll have to go on forever believ ing in such ghosts—you see how nieelv I am learning to use your style of pun— Where was I? Oh, yes—believe that friendship for the mass of one’s asso ciates is a boon to one’s own happiness. Perhaps I shall forever long for a place to make and perpetuate these worth less friendships we find here at Ore gon. I am sorry I am so ignorant. Yet I do not stand alone. There are two thousand or more of us here in this little college who believe in such silly things. Won’t you pity us, Sir? My mind is wandering, Mr. Lane. That is a way it has. This crazy idea just slipped into it. Really I can’t con ceive what possible connection it might have, yet anyhow, here it is. Do you remember that childish game we used to play?—That one about the “Wife choose the child”? I think it ended like this: “The cheese stands alone!” K. GENE WHITTEN. WOMEN WIN GOLF MATCH Dr. Stuart and Miss Perkins Victors in Second of Series; After playing ill holes,. Dr. Bertha Stuart and Miss Mary Perkins won the women's match in the tri-city golf tour nament in Rugene, that is being held between Salem, t'orvallis. and Rugene.

The Magnolia Petroleum Building, Dallas, Texas^ ALFRED C. BOSSOM, Architect Drawn by Hugh Ferriss © O. E. CO. "Sheer Height” 'T'HE American business building represents a distinct and national A architectural style when its design frankly emphasizes its sheer height and outwardly expresses the inner facts of its construction. The tall buildings which stand as monuments throughout the coun try to the vision of our architects and the skill of our engineers have, in the gigantic profiles which they rear against the sky, the true Amer ican spitit of aspiration and progress toward even greater achieve ments. Certainly modern invention—modern engineering skill and organiza tion, will prove more than equal to the demands of the architecture of the future.
