Crawford Assistant.Robert Shepherd A Pledge of Service TTODAY is one of the significant days on the University cal endar. Following a custom started over ten years ago, Governor falter Pierce, of Oregon, will administer the “Ore gon Pledge” to the students and faculty of the University. Since the inception of this annual custom, there has never been an occasion when the head of this commonwealth has failed to lay aside his pressing duties to hear this expression of allegiance to our state and country. • Nothing could be said to impress more deeply the realiza tion of opportunity given us by the people -of Oregon than the spirit contained in the words of the pledge itself: “As a student at the University which is main- • tained by the people of Oregon, I heartily acknow ledge the obligation I owe. The opportunities open to me here for securing training, ideals and vision for life, I j deeply appreciate, and regard as a sacred trust, and do hereby pledge my honor that it shall be my most cher ished purpose to render as bountiful a return to the Ore i* gon people and their posterity, in faithful and ardent de j votion to the common good, as will be in my power. It shall be the aim of my life to labor for the highest good ' end glory of an ever greater commonwealth.” A reading list of recommended books has been placed on the circulation desk of the Library, by Mrs. Mable McClain of the staff, who used the group last summer in a course in book selection. One of the greatest obstacles to the acquirement of an interest in reading for the cultural, or intellectual ecstasy derived from this beneficial habit is in knowing how to “break in.” Possession of this list, obtainable at the Library, will be of inestimable help to the earnest beginner. Mu Phi Epsilon performed a real service to the campus and to townspeople of Eugene in presenting Miss Ebba Frederick son in concert at the University last evening. The large at tedance is a fair indication that students here are not entirely unconcerned in developing aesthetic tastes nor utterly oblivious to the delights of worth-while entertainment. The Y. W. C. A. drive is worth a thought. Were its sole function maintenance of an employment bureau, its existence would be justified and be worthy of support. To feel that one’s contribution has helped procure work for a needy student and thus allowed continuance of University residence is a big divi dend on a small amount of capital. Oreg'”' frosh have something to be thankful for. There is nothing “rotten” scheduled here like that egg fight at the University of Colorado. Remember to put a nickle or tw0 in your jeans before going “up to the campus.” It may save a lot of embarrassment and you’ll want some of those “sugary sinkers” anyway. Are you planning to join the crowd in Portland this week-end ? _ Help “break the camera” after assembly today. I'JJUL MASS MEETING i TO BE HELD TONIGHT The Women's Athletic association will have a mass meeting tonight at 5 o’clock in Boom 121, in the Wo man’s building.

However, by the time the quoted words got into print they were changed to spell in part, correctly, while the one word in French we used on our account was mispelled. And bf course this rather vitiated the con tent. Whenever you see anything of piine in hero that sounds goofy, dear reader, take my word for it, it is due to the creative impulse (politely speaking) in the printing department. We have been asked what is the main purpose of this column, what we are attempting to do.
