    STUDENTS WILL

State Volunteer Union Plans
Convention
PROBLEMS TO COME UP
“Indianapolis in Miniature,”
Hope of Chairman
The University of Oregon will be
well represented at the state con
vention of Christian college stu
dents, to be held at Corvallis, March
7, 8 and 9, according to present in
dications. Lester Turnbaugh, local
leader of student volunteers and
chairman of the Indianapolis dele
gates, has been asked to preside at
an open forum of the entire con
vention on Saturday morning, ^at
which time “International Prob
lems and Christ’s Way of Life”
will be the topic for discussion.
This convention is to be held
under the auspices of the state stu
dent volunteer union, but is held
for all Christian college students
interested in the relations and
responsibilities of the Christian stu
dents to the non-Christian world.
“It is especially urged that officers
of the Christian associations and
those students with responsibility
to promote missionary activities on
tre campuses be present at this con
vention,” write those who are ar
ranging the convention program.
Topics Are Given
“The plan is to try to make this
conference an Indianapolis in mini
ature,” writes Bobbin E. Fisher,
conference chairman. “To that end
the theme of most of the addresses
and the questions discussed will
■follow those of the larger convcn
tion. So Dr. Henry White, Port
land, is going to talk Saturday
morning on the theme ‘Race Rela
tionships and the Christian Ideal.' ”
Student discussion is to be especi
ally stressed at this conference. In
this connection, the delegates to
Indianapolis can contribute much to
the conference by being present and
entering the discussion with the
background of the greater conven
tion before them. Others, inter
ested in Christian work and world
problems, denied the privilege of
attending the Indianapolis conven
tion, can contribute much to and
receive much from attendance at
this convention, according to Mr.
Fisher.
Pageant Is Planned
“As to other details of the
program,” Mr. Fisher writes, “the
main addresses will be given by Dr.
H. L. Bowman, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church, Portland; Dr.
Henry White, returned missionary
to Siam; and Mr. William Beahm,
traveling secretary of the student
volunteer movement. The devotions
will be conducted throughout the
conference by Kev. Munroe Everett,
student pastor at Corvallis. A
spectacular missionary pageant is
being planned for under the direc
tion of Dr. C. E. Powell of Salem.”
Any one from the University of
Oregon, desiring to attend this con
vention should leave his or her
name at the local Y. M. C. A. be
fore March 1, so that arrangements
can be made for entertainment' at
Corvallis.
VINING SAYS DREAMS
STORE UP ENTHUSIASM

be guarded against by “plenty of
human ventilation.” Business should
be only a part of man’s life en
deavor, he declared, and the man
or woman should never become the
'slave of the merchant, the farmer
or the school teacher.
The viewpoint, quite prevalent to
day, that success can be attained
through power of will Mr. Vining
characterized as “the most insidious
philosophy that ever crept into
human consciousness.” Will force

degenerates into worry, worry
causes friction, friction uses up the
nervous energy of the body and i
brings on nervous prostration, he
declared. Will should give way to
interest and enthusiasm, he said.
“If you want to know if you are
progressing, inquire whether or not
your interest is growing.”
The world of recreation and play
is as important a part of the
modern business man’s life as any
other pursuit, the speaker said. He
told of the practice prevalent
among tthe business men of Xew
York of taking both Wednesday
and Saturday afternoons off for
recreation, counting this time as
well spent, and as productive of re
sults as the time spent in the office.
Recreation unties the tense knots
into which the worries of business
tie men’s brains, and gives tffie sub
conscious reservoirs a chance to
work, he said.
The manifestations of enthusiasm
are four-fold, M,r. Vining said;
first the attractive force of enthu
siasm. which gathers energy for the
coming project; second, the direc
tive force; third, the generative
force, and fourth, the culmination
of the project.
“We stand with man’s feet on
man’s earth and say that heaven
is one ascendency of achievement
in a great and glorious hereafter,”
he declared in closing.
GRILLE DANCES PLANNED
Mid-nite Sons to Play for Campus
During Week-end
Since the innovation of grille
dances last winter, campus dance
promoters have featured them from
time to time.
The latest announcement of in
terest in the realm of campus “step
pers” is that of Jack Myers’ Mid
nite Sons and their intended pro
gram of grille dances for the week
end.
The Anchorage is to be used to
lend novelty to the Thursday night
dance and to the Friday afternoon
matinee. The millrace and the
other colorful surroundings at the
Anchorage are expected to lend en
chantment to the affair, according
to the promoters. The usual Satur
day night affair at the College Side
Inn is also on the schedule.

Y. M. G. A. DELEGATES
REPORT ON MEETING
Discussion Groups Found
to be Successful
Oscar McKinney anti Romane
Brand, delegates from tlie campus
Y. M. C. A. to the state conference
at Portland over the week-end, are
hack on the campus pgain. In re
porting to the cabinet at their regu
uar weekly meeting, they said the con
ference was well attended and a
success. Inspiring and helpful talks
were given by state and national
officials, and there was a considerable .
interchange of ideas among the dele
gates representing the various organ
izations in the state.
Reports on the progress of the
weekly discussion groups in the men's;
organizations were given at the eabi-1
net meeting. Various members ex
pressed themselves as well pleased
with the interest shown by the various
houses and their help in making these
discussions a success. Henry Karpen-1
stein, president of the campus Y. W.
0. A., commended very heartily the
work done by those who have made
these discussions worth while.
“The six weeks discussion group
series which the campus “Y” organ
ization has sponsored among the men’s
organizations on the campus,” he
said, “is in full swing now, and two
more weeks will see the close of one
of the most successful and valuable
discussion group courses that has as
yet been tried on the campus. The
co-operation and willingness on the
part of the faculty leaders and the j
men’s organizations have made it pos- j
sible to reach a very large proportion j
of the men on our campus and to pre
sent to them the vital questions which
should concern world students of this
day and age. We feel sure that the
discussion group idea is a good one
and the response it has received this
year is certainly most encouraging and
proof of its success,”
Some of the topics for discussion
during the past four weeks have
been: “The Bible. How it is differ
ent from other books? Where did
we get it?” “Evolution. Can a man
I be a Christian and a scientist?”

LINCOLN PAGEANT FLAG
NOW AT ART BUILDING
(Continued from page one)
the distinguished guests embarked
bn the slow voyage toward the
memorial, with the procession of
delegates following along the banks
of the Lagoon. A heavy mist, and
then a fine rain veiled the scene,
giving it a dream like quality. A
speck of light behind the great
bronze statue of Lincoln in the cen
ter of the memorial slowly grew to
a brilliant blaze from the braziers.
The gently swaying banners were
luminous in the glow, the standard
bearers stood motionless.
William Howard Taft, chief jus
tice of the United States supreme
court, introduced President Hard
ing 'hud from the hand of President
Harding, the architect received the
honor of the institute.
Above the motionless men, behind j
the great statue of the martyred
president, were these words: “In I
this temple, as in the hearts of his
countrymen for whom he saved the
Union, the memory of Abraham
Lincoln is enshrined forever.”
