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.

y agaries
In Saturday’s Emerald we had
a humorous comment upon the way
some folks misspell their French,
and we quoted them. 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.
