Dyment, was declared to be the best code of its kind in the United States, by the committee on ethics of Sigma Delta Chi, according to George II. Godfrey, Oregon delegate, who returned Sunday from +he an nual convention of the jurnalism fraternity at the University of Min nesota in Minneapolis. The session was held November 19, 20 and 21. This committee is headed by F. W. Beckman, head of the department of journalism at Iowa State college, and a code of ethics similar to the one in this state is soon to be drawn up. Convention is Ninth The convention, which is the ninth to be held by the fraternity, elected Melville E. Stone, counselor of the Associated Press, as national honor ary member. Only three other men have been thus recognized, among them being the late Warren G. Harding, president of the United States. National officers elected pit this time were: T. Hawley Tapping, former secretary, national presi dent; James Wright Brown, publish er of Editor and Publisher, national honorary president; Donald Clark, first vice-president; R. R.

An ethical afternoon mooting was one of tho features of tho national fconcl'ave. At this session, which was devoted to discussing ethics of journalism, Justin Miller, formerly of the law school at the University here, and now in the law depart ment of tho University of Minne sota, was the principle speaker. H. Z. Mitchcl^ nationally known for his work as editor of the Bomidji Sentinel, also spoke on the place of the country weekly. Tho Minnea polis Tribune and Minneapolis Journ al, the loading papers of the twin cities, each were hosts at banquets given for the delegates, and tho con vention en masse was taken through tho plant of tho Journal, whore an extra edition of tho paper was run off the press as a souvenir. Iowa Wins Contest Iowa State college again won the efficiency contest, with North Da kota second, Kansas Stato third and O. A. C. fourth. Tho contest is to bo continued another year. One of the important resolutions drawn up and adopted by tho con vention favored higher wages for reporters and writers cm newspapers, and the delegates went on record as favoring a high standard for all journalistic enterprises. Hammer and Coffin, national publishing so ciety, was also recognized as a journ alistic society of growing import ance, and dual membership in the society and Hammer and Coffin was favored. Social affairs for the delegates included banrjuets, luncheons, and a dance at which Theta Sigma Phi, national women’s journalism fra ternity, was hostess. The national conclave will be held at the University of Indiania, at Indianapolis, next November.

Lewis Interested in Tang Period Figure - “That’s like asking me which of twenty young ladies I think the best looking,” was the reply of L. A. Lewis, when asked if there was one piece in the Murray Warner j museum that interested him most. | Mr. Lewis, of the firm of Allen and Lewis, Portland, lias far a hobby the | collection of Oriental art, and came Friday to attend the opening of the museum at the ■ invitation of Pre sident P. L. Campbell. At last, however, as a man might be finally led to confess for a blond lady, or one of a certain type, Mr. Lewis expressed an especialy fond ness for porcelains. His own collec tion of porcelains is known through out the northwest. This year he presented a pottery statue of a ped dler to the Portland art museum. Its workmanship dates back to the Tang period, as does the small pot tery horse in the old Women’s league room. Like all peddlers, Mr. Lewis said, it is not a native of the coun . try in which it was found, but looks like it Came from much , further ' west. i The horse interested Mr. Lewis, who said it was one of the Arabian ; types. The Chinese have another | type of short Mongolian pony in | their art as- well. The action, spirit, ! and anatomy were commended in this one by. Mr. Lewis. | “It is more realistic than*°many jof their things,” he said, looking at lit intently with his shrewd, kindly j eyes. He said it had originally been I paiifted, but the dampness and mold had taken put the coloring. The old Chinese custom, Mr. Lewis stated, was once to bury a man’s wives, servants and animals with him when he died. Gradually the custom changed, and models of them were made to accompany him to the hereafter. The little horse "No, Grace, ‘The Gold Dig gers’ isn’t just another pic ture of those rough and ready miners of ’49.” Intercollegiate Hop The Thanksgiving College Get Together Thanksgiving Night MULTNOMAH HOTEL Ray Graham and his jazz symphonic will be on hand.
